Today I'm joined by Flipper (@moonbaseking) to discuss all things sus Beatles. We start by going through the Profumo Affair largely through the lens of the Beatles.  Then we discuss my favorite topic, John Arthur Reid Pepper, dentists, LSD, MKULTRA and parallel programs, and so forth.

I explore the Beatles' finances in an attempt to understand why they became the biggest band in the world. That's right - taxes, offshoring, capital gains, stock companies, and especially the shadowy financial figures behind the Beatles.

We talk about the Maharishi (very interesting guy), Magic Alex, the Eastmans, Allen Klein, and anything Beatles must inevitably talk about Yoko Ono. Finally, we discuss Lennon's assassination.
