[New Video!] Why these two Steve Jobs biopics are not the same

Hey all, here's the new video!

Thanks for those of you who voted for this (I'll make the Elvis one soon!).
And don't worry, I'll still be making plenty of Beatles-related videos (who's excited for Revolver?) I just wanted to stretch my interests and skills into an area that I'm passionate about with this one.

I hope you all like it!

[Early Access!] New video: Why these two Steve Jobs Biopics are not the same

Hey everyone!

My latest video is one I’ve been teasing for a while and one that I’m quite happy with. It’s biopic-related (I know, it’s been a while!) and I think you’ll really enjoy it.

I’ll be announcing channel updates really soon but in the mean time, please enjoy my video essay on the two Steve Jobs biopics (it’ll be out on YouTube in a few days).

Hope you’ve all been well,

Your Patreon Tier is changing [New perks and Tiers!]

Hello to all my lovely mid-tier Patrons, 

It's nearly been a whole year of my Patreon and I feel that this middle tier could use some more love.

This is why I'd like to add a guaranteed video as a regular benefit for your continued contributions.
Soon this tier will be known as the 'Sneak Preview' tier instead of 'Early Access.'
Instead of watching a YouTube video two days early on Patreon I'm thinking of allowing you t...

Bonus Video Poll Results!

This month's Bonus Video (as decided by you) will be on the albums Let it Be vs Let it Be... Naked.

Thanks for those of you who voted. I really like this way of coming up with bonus video content. Keep an eye out for more polls this week about a restructuring of my Patreon Tiers which may be adopting this method.

Video will be out by the end of the month as usual.

Thanks everyone,

Patreon Tier update POLL (new features!)

Hi lovely Patrons,

It's nearly been a year of my Patreon page and I was thinking of restructuring my Tiers so everyone is happier with what they’re contributing and what they have access to.

I wanted to poll you all on certain changes I’m considering.

Basically, the list of names in the credits is getting quite long and am thinking of removing this perk for this tier. However, I am also considering lowering the cost of higher tiers and increasing the list of perks in the...

[Early Access!] New video: 'Moonage Daydream' is the David Bowie film we've been waiting for

Hey folks!

Here's a surprise new video (my shortest yet!) that I whipped up after seeing the incredible film 'Moonage Daydream' on Monday night. Since I talked about 'Stardust' in a previous video, I thought I'd share my thoughts on this (much better) film.

Have you seen this yet? Let me know your thoughts in the comments to this Patreon post.

This month’s bonus video will come from you!

Hi all you top-tiers. Hope you’re well :)

I wanted to try something out for September’s bonus video. In the comments to this thread post an idea or topic for a video you’d like me to discuss.

You can comment however many ideas you like and I may even opt to have you vote on my favourites.

I want to give some power back to you folks and you’ve messaged me with some ideas previously so now’s your chance to make it a reality!

Can’t wait to see what you come up...

I was on a Podcast!

Hey everyone, for those of you who haven't come across the 'BeatlesEarth' account on Twitter and the corresponding podcast 'Here, There, and Everywhere' I was on an episode (actually it's a two-parter) and you can listen to it here or on Apple Podcasts/Spotify.

Though be aware that it's unedited so it's a lot more stream-of-consciousness and rambly than my videos!

Hope you enjoy!

Who are the Fifth Beatles?

I'm thinking of ranking the "Fifth Beatles" for a little video and I wanted to check with you folks, who do you think is in contention for this ranking?
Obviously there are the obvious key fifth Beatles (George Martin, Brian Epstein, Stuart Sutcliffe, Pete Best, Billy Preston etc.) but who are else would you say could be considered?
And feel free to include any explanations!

Poll Results!

Well this was bloody close! But the Steve Jobs Biopic video has won out over the Elvis one by 1 vote! (Never say your vote doesn't matter!)

I will be making a video on each topic but the Steve Jobs one will be next. Thanks for getting involved if you did.

Bonus video *is* coming today!

Hey everyone,

The July bonus video is ready and will still should be arriving by the end of the day (US time) but it's just been getting a couple of persistent copyright claims on YouTube, rendering it unviewable.


I just need a few more hours to fix this issue and then it should be all good, thanks for being patient.

P.S. I think you'll like it, it's on the Beatles Anthology!

You're getting it ad-free, a few days before everyone else on YouTube so please enjoy and let me know what you think. Feel free to shout-out any typos or corrections as now is always the best time to fix those things haha.

Vote on the next video!

Hey Patrons!

I've got a video coming out in a few days on Paul McCartney's 'Give My Regards to Broad Street' but I need your help deciding on the next video.
I'm choosing between two biopic-rated videos. One I've been teasing for a while which is my video on the two Steve Jobs biopics (Kutcher & Fassbender). The other video is one I've been thinking about making for Baz Luhrmann's 'Elvis.'

Let me know which seems more interesting to you and please only vote once!
