Diana and Phoebe discuss the infamous September 20th "divorce" meeting where John Lennon declared he wanted a divorce from the Beatles. We examine the various recollections of the meeting from both Lennon and McCartney's perspectives in an effort to understand what actually transpired between them, how they each viewed the meeting, and how they spun the story afterward. We debate whether John's declaration was reactionary, a true cry of emancipation, a strategic move that required a countermove, or even whether this truly was the end of the Beatles. After 10 episodes of backstory, we have arrived at the divorce meeting.

Breakup Series #10: Ten Days in September '69: Paul (Pt 2)

In this TWO PART episode, we focus on Paul's McCartney in September 1969. In PART 2 we examine how McCartney has been portrayed in the Beatles story and pressure test this characterization. We do this by considering what may have been going on with Paul at this time — as well as how he may have come across to the others in the band, while also attempting to accurately portray his value and power as an artist at this time.Diana EricksonOnesweetdreampodcast.comEmail: [email protected]: @onesweetdreamdi ---- Phoebe LordeAnotherkindofmind.comTwitter: @akompod or @akompodcast Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Onesweetdream)
