Anyway, hope you're all safe & sound.

"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.

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!

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.
