We see you sleepy BLOTTO-heads.

EPISODE 96: CHAMPAINS, out now! We opened the bottle, hit record, and did our best to get to the heart of George’s “Chains.” Is it our favorite track? Not quite. But with cocktails and chaos on our side, we still found a bit to love. Dig it.

EPISODE 95: YOU WON'T SEA BREEZE is here! Our dive into this Paul jam. Press play, pour one and get silly with us. Out in all of your pod places.

Out now, EP. 94 - EVERY SINGAPORE SLING, with very special guest @paulornothing.bsky.social And of course, we sang it, because sometimes talking Beatles isn’t enough. You have to become them.

EPISODE 94: EVERY SINGAPORE SLING is out now! We woke @paulornothing.bsky.social out of a dead sleep and made him talk Every Little Thing, is it an unsung gem of Beatles for Sale? Plenty of drinks, plenty of takes, and yes, plenty of things. Dig it wherever you get your pods.

We're talking tonight about some of Mal's finest organ work. Got thoughts on it? Tell it to the drunk dial line - 857.233.9793

Please consider supporting the pod - ebay.us/m/ueqkzD

Paul looks about as surprised as I was to find this t-shirt in deep storage - wore this through most of high school. (-Becker)

We've got @paulornothing.bsky.social staying up until 1 AM to start recording. The least you can do is leave a Text or VM for him on the drunk dial line - 857.233.9793.

Out now - Episode 93: I'm Only Sipping with special guest Mary Devlin (@Beatledirt on some of the other socials). Great chat and good times getting back into Revolver. Dig it, everywhere you listen to pods.

Love this still!

So what are we doing about the Anthology on vinyl? I've had it in my cart like 3 times, but it just seems like a lot to spend...

Interestingly...our podcast had the same genesis.

Another episode, another excuse to share a drink in the name of Beatles scholarship. This week: the g'jam I Need You. Out now, EPISODE 92: I MEAD YOU. Available in all of your pod places, stream responsibly.

You only get two guesses on what we’re calling tomorrow’s episode on I NEED YOU.

This one always smells like it was made for cassette first.

No man left behind.

@paulornothing.bsky.social makes a real good point here, how should we tackle this one?

As empty as our social presence this month, back with a new one this week. See you Thursday.

The annual Blotto Vetoes is here! We battle over Beatles tracks, reshuffling the sacred list like drunk monks with a white album. No takesies-backsies. Just blood, sweat, and “I think it should be higher.” 🎧 out now, dig it.

Blotto Vetoes - disappointing listeners since 2020. Out now!

Too many opinions, too much whiskey, and only one chance to mess with the big ol’ list of Beatles (this year). Blotto Vetoes drops tomorrow—let the infighting begin.

Catching up on some much delayed Blotto swag shipments from the big ol' pile of guitar picks, pins, stickers and a couple of koozies left. If you need some (or if I owe it to you) - please drop a DM with your shipping address.

Everyone always talks about the 2007 calendar, but real heads know the 2008 calendar is the grail. Still in shrink!

Back at it tonight and tackling one of the tunes that Rob Sheffield called "the finest George songs known to man"...let's see where this goes. Drop us your Beatle-y thoughts (texts / VMs) on the drunk dial line.

Probably need to go new KALLAX shopping this weekend.

Hey @jtkantor.bsky.social it's Ringo's Birthday, what's his most baseball-y tune? Boys? Little Help From My Friends?

Tonight at 8:30 ET, we record our annual Blotto Vetoes episode, where each of us gets one shot to try to move a Beatles track up or down on the big old list, no 2nd chances, no takesies-backsies. Wanna chime in? Hit the drunk dial line or DM for the Zoom link and plead your case live.

We’re back with another "When I’m Six… Degrees of Separation". Today, we dive into the cardigan-core of Counting Crows - masters of melancholy, jangly hooks, and 90s radio dominance. Can we find a line from Duritz’s dreadlocked heartache to the Fab 4? Spoiler: Yes, yes, we can. youtu.be/GZGoFyMrIwU

(Just Like) Starting Over...priced.

Fine, I’ll do it.

Still no Patreon. But if anyone wants to Venmo us enough for robotic arms that make drinks while we argue about Beatles songs, we’re listening.

This week in Beatle-y pick-ups.

In this This or That: Beatles Love Songs edition, we’re joined by the wizard of wax - Vinyl Benjy. Watch as he balances heart and logic — torn between swooning melodies and tight songwriting. It’s a ranking crisis in real time, and it’s glorious. youtube.com/shorts/sMJhe...

If the rumor is we got a room of Beatles Fest attendees sufficiently sauced and led a Now and Then singalong… then yeah, that happened. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdXt... EPISODE 91: NOW AND HENNY, available everywhere!

Episode 91: NOW & HENNY is out now! We recorded this one in front of a real, live audience at Beatles Fest with our pal Jonathan from @rankingthebeatles.bsky.social and unpacked the final Beatles track the only way we know how: emotionally, loudly, and filled with liquid courage. Dig it.

We caught up with Mary (@beatledirt) at Beatles Fest for a round of This or That: John Tunes Edition—because when you hang with Blotto Beatles, everyone’s a ranker. New episodes drop next week. Until then, let the arguments begin.

Immerse even deeper into our podcast! You'll soon be able to order the Blotto Beatles Helter Skelter Hangover Hood. Bed-In White Lennon or Pitch Black Paul variations are available only on Kickstarter.

EPISODE 90: DISTILL THERE WAS YOU, out now! We asked @julieklausner.bsky.social to help us make sense of this lovestruck, Broadway-core McCartney moment. Come for the croon, stay for the spirited critique. Dig it.

Mom, I told you to stop texting me at work...sometimes I think the drunk dial line is the best thing we did for Beatles podcasting.

We're still digging ourselves out from our lost weekend Beatles Fest'n - we had a lot of fun with a lot of good friends. We're going to tell you all about it soon, but in the meantime - peek into the ranking mind of Jonathan from @rankingthebeatles.bsky.social for a 'This or That': Beatles Rockers.

Let's pod! Blottos are in motion for some Beatles fest'n, see you tomorrow @rankingthebeatles.bsky.social

Oh, so you just enjoy The Beatles without assigning arbitrary, deeply emotional, and completely unstable rankings to every track? It must be nice living without passion. This promises to be a night, who are we going to see in Jersey City?

Did we create the world's first podcast-enabled nip (airplane bottle / whatever you regionally call these)? See us at the Fest for Beatles Fans to grab one of your own.
