Paul or Nothing is alright tonight...
Please join us as we have our first guest co-host on to help review the album at hand. This time it's the big, brash and bold follow up to Band on the Run, and cosmically titled, Venus and Mars. In addition to a song by song review we catch up with Paul's story as he attempts to patch things up with Lennon, heads to Nashville and New Orleans, as well as adding two new members to his backing band....errr THE band.
Sam is joined by Beatles scholar Dr. Kenneth Womack who has written many texts on the fab four including....
- Reading the Beatles: Cultural Studies, Literary Criticism, and the Fab Four (2006)
- The Beatles Encyclopedia: Everything Fab Four (two volumes; 2014).
- Long and Winding Roads: The Evolving Artistry of the Beatles (2007).
You can find out more about Dr Ken on his website, www.kennethwomack.com.
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.
[EDITORS NOTE: This is back when the album reviews were weekly, and whilst the episodes are indeed getting longer and detailed, they still aren't quite at the standard of recent episodes.]

Hello there everyone, it's your friendly neighbourhood Paul or Nothing.
Once again we are delaying the much anticipated 'Venus and Mars' episode to have some good old fashioned, guilt free Beatles chat. Today we are joined by the worlds first and foremost official Beatles scholar, lecturer, author and Youtube personality Aaron Krerowicz.
Honestly folks, this may be the best one thus far! Prepare for all things Beatles and Paul in this one, and expect a few musical numbers here and there too!
You can purchase all of Aaron's books from your favourite online book sites, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc. or from his website directly: http://www.aaronkrerowicz.com

We're gonna get Ho, Ho, Ho, the night is young!

Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Well, here we are folks, it's not gonna get much better than this is it?
Come and join us for a very special episode of Paul or Nothing to watch us peak far too early as a podcast! We are delving deep into the album that saved Paul from the brink of critical career collapse. This is...well come on, you all know what this is...this is Band on the Run!
We discuss everything from the break up of the second Wings line up, the calamity of the Lagos recording sessions and just how that iconic album cover came to be.
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Hello, hello, hello everyone and thank you for joining us at Paul or Nothing!
This week Paul attempts a second wrong to make a right as he tries to recover form the critical failure of Wild Life with another critical failure, albeit a far more deserving one this time around. Come and listen to new fractures within the band, the new "Magical Mystery Tour" and more drugs than you can shake a bong at. Let's go head first down the Red Rose Speedway!
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Greetings all!
For the first of our bonus episodes we take a slightly different turn when we begin the first of what will hopefully be many interviews with the infinitely knowledgable and kind McCartney expert, Luca Perasi.
Luca is the author of the acclaimed Macca bible, 'Paul McCartney: The recording sessions 1970-2013", which is available on Amazon and in all good book stores. He also has another book on all the fab fours post-Beatle careers in the pipeline!
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.

Welcome back folks, and thanks for joining us on the second episode of Paul or Nothing! Here today, we will be exploring the wild, melodramatic bursts of emotion that makes up the indomitable RAM, McCartney's second solo affair. We will also be delving further into the breakup of the Beatles and the bitter infighting that will inevitably lead Paul to form his own band.
Spoiler alert: This is my favourite album.
Please enjoy. Peace and Love. Hare Hare Krishna.
