Joseph, what a great idea for a podcast post! I really enjoyed listening to this. I’m a huge Beatles fan myself so when I saw the word Beatles in the title, I had to drop everything to listen. One thing you and Noah hit on that was very interesting to me, was how music went from something that’s played in a ballroom while you’re having dinner, dressed formally, to wearing jeans and a T-shirt to a concert where all you’re doing is listening to and singing along with the singer or the band. There’s no dinner involved lol! In this modern age, we can’t fully appreciate that shift. We didn’t live through it (most of us didn’t).
Thank you, Julie! Yes, it's pretty crazy how we went from strictly concert halls to record players to music streaming on smartphones. As Bob Dylan sang, "For the times they are a-changin'."

Thanks again for this fun topic, Joseph.
