About this episode

Ken Womack discusses his new projects and the current state of the Beatles' music and culture.

The one and only Ken Womack (misknown by a handful of his compatriots as "Keith") joins us this week. We start with a chat about Ken's new projects (including the second and possible third volumes in his Mal Evans collections), and wander around Beatles world, touching on not only their 2026 solo projects, but also AI, Rock Band, the quadrology, Mark Lewisohn in Ireland and more, which ultimately leads back to what's important! The music! #madeonzencastr.
