It’s time for a new episode of Fans On The Run, the Beatle podcast that tries it’s hardest to remember to talk about The Beatles! It’s a very special show today, as I’m joined by fellow Rickenbacker enthusiast, and member of the legendary XTC, Dave Gregory!
We talk about radios, winter, home recording, “My White Bicycle” by Tomorrow, Rose Morris Rickenbackers, and (of course) The Beatles.
All that and more? You’re not going to want to miss this one!

It’s time for another episode of Fans On The Run, and much like last episode, this was recorded on location! For the first time in FoTR history, I got the chance to talk with TWO people at the same time; a sort of Beatles TikTok (BeatleTok) Mount Rushmore if you will. Joining me today are Skylar Moody and Jamie Ortiz!
In what may be the most “Gen Z” episode of the show yet we talk about impulse purchases, Beatle fashion inspiration, a friendship forged through TikTok, heated debate, Yellow Submarine plush slippers, and much more!

It’s been a while, but it’s time for another episode of FoTR. There are few people who I have wanted to have on my show as much as our guest today, so in a way, one of my dreams has come true! Join me on location in Jersey City at The Fest For Beatles Fans to speak to the world’s foremost Beatle historian, Mark Lewisohn!

Surprise! After spending four months in a cryogenic freezer, I have returned to make new episodes of Fans On The Run! Anything interesting happen when I was gone?
In this very special “back from the dead” show, I am joined by author, music reviewer, and Beatles fan Eoghan Lyng! We go all over the place, but don’t worry, we still do talk about The Beatles! If you want specifics, you’re just going to have to listen to the episode!

It’s time for another mysterious episode of Fans On The Run! Joining me today is the “Rock And Roll Detective” and author of books like ‘Black Market Beatles’ and the instant-classic ‘The Beatle Who Vanished’, Jim Berkenstadt!
We talk about intriguing research around the 1964 Toronto concert, being recommended by George to the rest of the surviving Beatles at one of his last Apple meetings, a nickname christened by Neil Aspinall, the experience of the premiere of the Love show, work on the last “deluxe” edition of ‘All Things Must Pass’, the film rights of his book, lots of bootleg talk, the ancient Beatlefest “room”, the mysterious 2003 non-rerelease of the ‘Let It Be’ film, the psychological impact of being in The Beatles for such a short period of time, and the final word on the ‘Paul is dead’ mystery! All that and more.
