Greetings one and all, to another installment/episode/chapter of "Paul or Nothing", where we will be picking where we left off at the end of our last episode. Of course, this means me, and my devilishly funny guest Dylan Sevey, will be chitting the chat about both "Let It Be" (dir, by Michael Lindsay-Hogg), and "The Beatles: Get Back" (dir, by Peter Jackson).
If you are typically someone who skips my intro segments, please stick around for the email segment as it may spark some interesting debates.
Please enjoy. Hare Krishna. Peace and love.

Welcome Paul Bearers to another film review edition of the "Paul or Nothing" podcast.
This time we will be discussing both documentary films that focus on The Beatles Let It Be sessions. Firstly, we will be talking about "Let It Be (1970)", dir by Michael Lindsay Hogg, and secondly, we will be discussing the upcoming remake/reboot/white wash, called "The Beatles: Get Back", dir by Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings, King Kong).
My guest today is renowned Nashville musician and general badass, Mr. Dylan Sevey.
I have a couple of lengthy interviews coming up, and I've decided to be pragmatic and split the episodes up into two parts. I'm gonna do this regular upload thing if it kills me!
Please enjoy. Hare Krishna. Peace and love.

Hello there everyone,
Just as we all predicted, the Flowers in the Dirt episode/s are taking absolutely forever to put together, so thankfully my good friend MR. Antony Rotunno has decided to come and bail me out of my poor upload schedule.
Whilst we do eventually get around to covering the infamous bootleg, A Toot and a Snore in 74' (1992), be prepared for a patented "Paul or Nothing" digressional chit chat!
Make sure to follow Antony's spectacular John Lennon podcast, "Glass Onion:On John Lennon". Leave him 5 stars. Subscribe. Say hi. The works...
Here is the link for my CNN cameo. Make sure to watch till the end of the video! - https://edition.cnn.com/2020/04/25/us/the-beatles-yellow-submarine-trnd/index.html
Please enjoy. Hare Krishna. Peace and love.

Hey folks, and welcome to another bonus episode of "Paul or Nothing", the place to get all of your Paul all of the time. Thank you once again for joining us during the apocalypse, and I hope you are all in the best of health!!!
As before, we're gonna keep it simple, as we inspect another motley crew of Paul McCartney covers. This means covers of songs written by Paul, not the other way around! Many of these songs were originally meant to be in part one, so I'm glad I am finally able to share them with you.
There are definitely a few keepers here...
I'll give you the songs, but not the artist. This episode includes covers of...
- Band on the Run
- Ebony and Ivory
- With a Little Luck
- Heart of the Country
- Silly Love Songs
- Let Em' In
- Mrs. Vanderbilt
- Maybe I'm Amazed
- ...and many, many more.
Make sure to send in your own suggestions for cover versions you would like me to review in future episodes. Hit me up at paulmccartneypod@gmail.com.

Hey everyone, this episode was recorded during a period where I have been (mostly) without a computer to work on. Thankfully, good friend of the show, Mr. Tom Kwei arrived with a mac, a mic, and big book of Beatles-based trivia questions.
Nothing too complex, just a little tidbit to tide you over till "McCartney Covers 2" and both parts of Flowers in the Dirt are completed. This was completely impromptu, so please forgive my scores...
Make sure you play along at home, and drop me a message to either paulmccartneypod@gmail.com or @mccartneypod to let me know how you did!
Please enjoy. Hare Krishna. Peace and love.
Check out "Punnit", Tom's pun-based gameshow, of which I have now won five episodes. It's really fun and we would love to hear your feedback. Find it at...

Please check out and follow all three of Tom's podcasts, they are all annoyingly good....

Welcome everyone to another bonus episode of "Paul or Nothing", the place to get all of your Paul all of the time. Thank you for joining us yet again, and I hope you are all in the best of health!!!
We're gonna keep it simple today, as we take a look at a semi-random mix of Paul McCartney covers. That being covers of songs written by Paul, not the other way around! Of course, with Paul's Beatles compositions being widely lauded as some of the most widely covered tunes of all time, I thought it was only fair to highlight a broad range of songs, covered by a broad range of artists, in a broad range of styles.
I could put all of these things on a "broad-street", but no...
I'll give you the songs, but not the artist. This episode includes covers of...
- Let Me Roll It
- My Love
- Coming Up
- Power Cut
- Silly Love Songs
- Live and Let Die
- Girlfriend
- Temporary Secretary
- ...and many, many more.
Make sure to send in your own suggestions for cover versions you would like me to review in future episodes. Hit me up at paulmccartneypod@gmail.com.

Hello everyone and welcome to the second of our "Catch Up" side series, where I've been going back and reviewing anything I may have/certainly missed during the original chronological run of the podcast.
This time, we are talking about Thrillington (1978), but as many fo you know, Thrillington is not just an album, but also the mysterious individual who made it. Come join me as I detail not only the albums recording, it's strange marketing campaign and the identity of Percy "Thrills" Thrillington...
Later on in the ep, I will be joined by my good friend, writer and journalist, Eoghan Lyng, to lend a hand in discussing the album track by track.
Hope you're all safe.
Please enjoy. Hare Krishna. Peace and love.
Make sure to check out all of Eoghan's fantastic writings, many of them directly related to topics/people we discuss on the podcast, down below!!!

Hello everyone and welcome to the first of (yet) another side series on this podcast where I will be going back and reviewing anything I may have missed in the original chronology of the show.
Today we will be talking about The Family Way, both the film and the soundtrack "by" Paul McCartney.
Later on in the ep, I will be joined by long-time-friend-of-the-show, Mr. Tom Kwei to chip in his two cents on both media.
Hope you're all safe.
Please enjoy. Hare Krishna. Peace and love.
