Then he decided to make a podcast to talk with other people and learn about their connection with The Beatles' music. Tune in as Jonathan and his guests, joined by his co-host/wife Julia (a more level-headed, casual fan) discuss the rankings, what they think makes each song so great (or not-so-great), and see if it really is a fool's errand to try and rank the music of the greatest band of all time.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-20T00:19:01.853001+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ranking-the-beatles-145835"},"episode":{"title":"BONUS: Anthology Roundtable Review!","slug":"bonus-anthology-roundtable-review","published_at":"2025-12-16T01:23:38+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ranking-the-beatles-145835/bonus-anthology-roundtable-review","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ranking-the-beatles-145835","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/rankingthebeatles/episodes/BONUS-Anthology-Roundtable-Review-e3cdivc","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/2338f43c/podcast/play/112691628/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2025-11-16%2Ff2f907a2-50a3-043d-b80f-131d39908668.m4a","summary":"After 30 years, The Beatles Anthology is back!
