Punch Up The Jam

Andrew and Evan Gregory (of The Gregory Brothers) are joined by a special guest every week to revisit, review, and revise a song of their choice, and then offer an improved "punched-up" version.

I'd like to be....punching up a song from the Fab Four! A scary prospect! And that's even before you get the tentacles involved.

Obviously fans of the pod have been begging for a Beatles punch up for ages and we've just been too intimidated until now, tiptoeing through Lennon & McCartney solo work as prelude. But today WE'VE DONE IT.

With the intrepid help of Beatlemaniac and Professional Reviewer Reilly Anspaugh, we got to the bottom of this song and the bottom of the ocean. Extensive non-maritime sidebars on cave geology, Evan's all-too-brief marimba career, and things a squirrel can do to a hollow log.

Listen to the full episode below.
