006 - Anna (Go To Him) [featuring Rob Collier!]

In this week’s episode of All You Need Is Pod, Jesse and Mike are once again joined by Rob Collier of Beatles Bass Lines for the second part of their conversation, this time turning their attention to the Beatles’ aching cover of Anna (Go to Him). The discussion explores the brilliance of Arthur Alexander and the enormous impact Black American soul and R&B music had on the Beatles’ early sound and musical identity. Along the way, the conversation branches out into the emotional force of John Lennon’s vocal performance, the subtle brilliance of Ringo Starr’s drumming, and the unique chemistry that made the Beatles’ early covers feel so personal and alive. As always, the episode is packed with musical analysis, Beatles history, side tangents, and plenty of appreciation for the artists and influences that helped shape the band in their formative years!

005 - The McCartney Sound (featuring Rob Collier!)

In this week’s episode of All You Need Is Pod, Jesse and Mike are joined by Rob Collier of Beatles Bass Lines for a deep dive into the endlessly inventive bass playing of Paul McCartney. Together, they trace Paul’s evolution from the straightforward rock ’n’ roll roots of the early Beatles years to the melodic, genre-defying approach that would completely reshape what a bass guitar could do in popular music. Along the way, Rob breaks down some of Paul’s most iconic bass parts, the gear and instruments that shaped his sound, and the unconventional ways he applied music theory — often by instinct rather than formal training. The conversation also wanders into favorite bass moments, recording techniques at Abbey Road, how Paul’s playing interacted with John Lennon and George Harrison, and why McCartney remains one of the most influential bassists in music history. Whether you’re a musician, a Beatles obsessive, or just someone who’s ever found themselves humming a Paul bass line, this is a fun and insightful conversation you won’t want to miss!

004 - Misery (featuring Sam Popkin!)

In today's episode, Jesse and Mike are joined by musician and YouTuber Sam Popkin for a fun and wide-ranging dive into “Misery,” the third track on the Beatles’ debut album Please Please Me. What starts as a look at one of the earliest Lennon–McCartney compositions quickly opens up into a lively conversation about the song’s origins, recording quirks, and where it fits in the Beatles’ rapidly unfolding story. Along the way, Sam brings a musician’s perspective to the track’s structure and performance while sharing the story of his own Beatles fandom, and the discussion takes plenty of entertaining detours into Beatles history, recording trivia, and early-60s pop influences. It’s the kind of humorous, tangent-filled deep dive you’ve come to expect from All You Need Is Pod, perfect for longtime Beatles obsessives and curious fans alike!
