20/20 vs Let It Be: Part 2

We wrap up this match with a track-by-track look at Let It Be. This was largely a 1969 project from The Beatles, but by the time it finally saw release in 1970, the whole world new the band and broken up. That may have tainted this album with a negative feeling, but does it deserve to disdained? How good are these tracks? Does it all add up to something better than 20/20? At the end of this episode, we each give our Final Judgment. We also welcome in Jake Altmayer of the Good Timin' podcast to get his take on this match!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
