Ep. 104 - The Wort (Feat. Sam Popkin)

We uncover the real story behind Paul's stolen bass before we dive into hippie phases, mens' bootcut jeans and chunky necklaces, giving the Doors a chance, celebrating the Beatles' mistakes, being a cameo in the Springsteen biopic, Springsteen in spandex, Paul slagging on Dylan, Sitar Center, and the harmonium-backed "The Word."  And we do it all with the talented and wise Sam Popkin.As always, you can find Team Blotto Beatles on Instagram (@blottobeatles) and Twitter / X (@blottobeatles), by emailing us ([email protected]), or on the web (blottobeatles.com).  We want to hear from you!Please also take the time to rate and review us on Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.We have a shop!  Grab some merch.  You can always drunk dial us at 1.857.233.9793 to share your thoughts, feedback, confessions, and concerns to be featured in an upcoming episode.
