"McCartney III": First Thoughts - Paul or Nothing Episode #18.
Thursday Dec 24, 2020
Thursday Dec 24, 2020
Hey, hey, hey everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Paul or Nothing.
After nearly week since release we are here to discuss the release of Paul McCartney's 18th solo studio album. Made during "rockdown", and here to save 2020 with more coloured vinyl than you can shake a stick at...this is McCartney III!
This episode is more detailed than a hot takes episode, but there will indeed be an official McCartney III episode in the future. Call this an early Christmas present...
Peace & love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Hey everyone, and welcome to a rather spontaneous episode of Paul or Nothing.
Back in 2018, when Egypt Station was about to be released, me and my best friend Tom (@Metallicapod) gave out hot takes on "Come On To Me" and "I Don't Know". So here at the end of 2020, now that McCartney III is on the way we have reunited again to give the same treatment to "Find My Way" & "Winter Bird/When Winter Comes". Don't worry, we're a little nice this time around!
What clues will these songs give us about the upcoming album? What do we think of the music? And are we even allowed to be talking about these songs? All this, and more, can be found inside...
Peace & love.

It's all good natured and SPOILER ALERT the overall consensus is that we love Paul!
If you want to skip the criticism you can skip to this time code - 1:21:04.

"Live and Let Die": Paul or Nothing Film Review: Episode #9.
Saturday Nov 07, 2020
Saturday Nov 07, 2020
Hello there everyone, from the depths of the UK's second lockdown I bring you a rather lighthearted film review episode of Paul or Nothing. Join me and veteran friend of the show Matt Phillips, as we explore the 1973 film, "Live and Let Die, starring Sir Roger Moore as James Bond. Don't worry though, we don't forget about Paul or his title track! Poor impressions of Bond, and crude humour are both swiftly inbound.
Be warned boomers, I don't go easy on this one...
Please enjoy. Peace and love. Hare Hare Krishna.

McCartney Album Covers, with Another Kind of Mind #2
Wednesday Oct 21, 2020
Wednesday Oct 21, 2020
Hey there everyone, and welcome back to the second instalment of my conversation about Paul McCartney album covers (and loads more) with Diana, Phoebe, and Thalia from the superb "Another Kind of Mind" Podcast.
Obviously, as you can see from the existence of this episode, the "single" episode that I envisioned with the AKOM crew didn't pan out, and now we have another FAB side series instead.
Many thanks to Diana, Phoebe, and Thalia, and I can't wait for part 3!
Peace and love. Harre Harre Krishna.
Please say hi to Another Kind of Mind from all of us here at Paul or Nothing!
