Oh my God, I know right. Why would he go and start another bonus episode side series if he hasn't even gotten around to Tug of War yet? Well, the only reason I have is that this was more than likely intended to be the very first series of bonus episodes, and that this is more long overdue than you may remember...
Join us today on 'Paul or Nothing' where we start a journey into one of the most interesting, most illuminating and hilarious aspects of the Paul McCartney media machine...if only they knew, when they were aming this stuff, that some prick like me would come and view it as a whole. If only they knew.

Hey everyone, welcome back to another bonus episode of Paul or Nothing, where this week we will be revisiting both one of the most popular and controversial posts on our sister blog. Yes, we do have one of those, and yes there actually was a bit of a fracas...
We're gonna be looking at Paul's penchant for silly rhyming schemes and duly mocking them.

Greetings Paul bearers. It's time to go back and correct a few errors in this side series, as I have discovered some even more obscure, even more random recordings that slipped through my fingers. This time on Hot Hits and Cold Cuts we actually get to go back and discuss that other band Paul McCartney was with before Wings...whatever they were called!
Apologies for the lateness of this episode, but I have recently just got a new job and I have been focussing on the for a week, but I am back with a double bill of episodes for all you lovely people out there!
Peace and love. Enjoy!!!

Hello all, and welcome back to Paul or Nothing. We are back, once again, with another gig review for all you lovely folk. And, whilst the schedule may have called for an early Wings gig review, the arrival of a certain guest, prominent Twitter follower and Patreon patron, and the fact that he told me he went to Glasto in 04', meant that we quickly changed course.
I'm glad I did, Matt is an awesome guy, we had a great chat, and most importantly we had a fucking insanely phenomenal live performance for us to mutually devour.
This our first fan-cast, or guest appearance from a fan, and if you too would be interested in something similar (especially if you have been to a gig of your own), drop us an email at paulmccartneypod@gmail.com.

It's finally here, you know what this is. You couldn't avoid it forever. It's the Kanye West episode!
One of modern music's most enigmatic, loved and loathed figures, a pop culture icon (whatever that means_, a fashion mogul, producer and director, Kanye West is undeniably one of the most off the wall choices for Paul to choose as a collaborator....and that's why it's so fucking brilliant.
Join us here today as we discuss Yeezy's discography, his relationship with Paul, 'Only One', 'FourFiveSeconds' and 'All Day' and finally my insane, Lovecraftian desperation to talk all things Kanye.

Hello folks, welcome back to our paralel film review series, whereby we will be climbing aboard the Magical Mystery Tour where we will find out answers to questions like "is it any good?", "is it rubbish?", "how rubbish is it?" and "is it a film at all?". Honestly folks after the last two films that were so iconic and popular, its nice to change things up with some overly self indulgent, questionabl executed wierdness. The Magical Mystery Tour was Paul's first cinematic baby and it acts as an intersting prelude of lessons not being learned in preparation for 'Give My Regards to Broadstreet'. This was a fun one people. Peace and love.

Hey there everyone, this is very much an unscheduled "bonus" bonus episode that I managed to whip up for you whilst I had a free hour in Glasgow. This extra content is basically a little thank you for everyone of you who have been listening to this show, and an apology for how lax the shows output was in the early days.
On todays "bonus" bonus episode we will explore one of the most oft maligned and mocked elements of Pauls ouvre, his "granny songs". These overly sentimental piano ditties have attracted a lot criticism over the years, and I honestly have no idea why. For me these songs aren't even guilty pleasures, I just think they're generally amazing. Now I just have to convince you....
But yeah here are my "Top 12 Paul McCartney Granny Songs". Peace and love, peace and love.

Hi, hi, hi, the night is young,
Yes, we have another bonus episode of Paul or Nothing where we continue my ego boosting, self aggrandization as I, once again, will attempt to do a bit better than the most successful recording artist of all time by telling him the way IIIIIIIII would have released his synthy-techno epic.
Basically, I will be taking all the material from the McCartney II sessions and hopefully I will be able to craft something that would have been received a little better by the critics back in 1980. At least that is the plan anyway.
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Welcome back to this second instalment of 'Paul or Nothing',
Okay everyone, we are now onto the part that I have been most looking forward to...
I began podcasting with Tom Kwei back when we started the podcast that I never ever talk about, 'Down in the Hole', and we have both been addicted ever since. Without this man I would not be in podcasting and I would still be a social pariah. Paul Bearers the world over, please welcome my best friend, fellow podcaster, collaborator, inspiration and nemesis, Mr Tom Kwei.
In this part two we go to town with a song-by-song analysis of the songs of McCartney II as well as getting distracted every 37 seconds as we are want to do...
Please enjoy. Peace and love. Harre Harre Krishna.
Please check out and follow all three of Tom's podcasts, they are all annoyingly good....

Hello, greetings to all and welcome to a highly anticipated episode of 'Paul or Nothing'!
Today, we will finally get to download, upload, and reload the semi-sequel to the very first solo McCartney release, and one of my favourite releases in his entire canon. McCartney II is a cult album within the Macca mythos, and I am certainly a member of that cult. If you like synthy-madness, Macca silliness and more experimentation than a hippy sex commune, then this is McCartney release for you.
In this part one we will go through the entire history of the album, it's recording, and a certain holiday to Japan where Paul's love of a certain aromatic herb will once again land him in some very hot water indeed. We also indulge ourselves in the lead up to Paul's infamous bust, as well as the elusive conspiracies that lie at its heart.
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Paul or Nothing, the place to get all of your Paul all of the time!
Today we will be taking off with another one of our gig reviews, where we find a particular live show from Paul's history and analyse its pro's and cons, regardless of whether we've covered the music therein before or not.
Today we will be exploring the final 'official' gig from Wings' final 1979 UK tour, and I will attempt to twist your collective arms into joining me in the "Wings-final-lineup-was-best" camp. Will it work? Probably not, but that still doesn't stop this from being my favourite live show from this period.
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Hello folks, and welcome to the first true bonus episode for a while!
This has no connection to the main series or any of our side series, this is literally just an obscure piece of Macca content that I just had to riff on for a while, and I hope you like it!
'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' is a quiz gameshow that started here in the UK and spread to all four corners of the globe with its solid format, intriguing questions and mind numbingly hypnotic theme tune. Aaaaaaaaaand for some reason, Paul decided to give it a go. How cool is that?
Literally a few hours ago it was just announced that Who Want To Be A Millionaire is going to be back with Jeremy Clarkson as the host. If I had waited just one more day I could have mentioned it, but oh well!
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.
