BEATLES POD
About this episode

1980 was the year that everything changed. In the second of two parts, Steven and Jason look at how the rest of 1980 unfolded. In May, John Lennon is listening to the radio, semi-retired and without a contract. By November he’s written, recorded and released a brand new album with Yoko. Paul, George, and Ringo are also busy. Live on tape from Dublin, it’s Nothing Is Real. Follow us on
