"The Seeds of Everything"
Mike and Kenny and guest Rev. Eric Folkerth continue their discussion of the Peter Jackson film Get Back documenting The Beatles writing and recording of the Let It Be album and rooftop concert.
This episode focuses on the eye witness to the creative moments of inconic songs such as "Get Back", "Let it Be", and "Something". One of the facinating elements is watching and knowing history is being made yet the Beatles don't. In this episode are the seeds of everything in this closing era of The Beatles, the seeds of creation as well as their dissolution.
Next week the series concludes with an extended conversation of faith and theology spotted in Get Back.
