2Legs: A Paul McCartney Podcast

This past week Paul's Pre-Sale for the 2025 Fall North American Tour was announced and on Tuesday diehard fans like us all tried with a myriad of mixed results! Ticketmaster and their "Dynamic Pricing" was a hot bed issue. For this special episode we invited members of the 2Legs Family to join us and share their experiences.

Thank You to MVP, Joan, Beatley Tone, Boyan, James, Jeremy and Ted for sharing your ticketing saga! We also...

A fun one this week! For Episode 285 Andy and Tom play a fun little exercise called "One Album, One Word", where we go through Paul's discography (Main canon albums + Electric Arguments) and describe it using an adjective!

See you "Out There!" ...

Hello 2Legs Family,

We have a very special one-off non Macca episode to share with you. As most of you know Brian Wilson, of the Beach Boys recently passed away in June 2025 at the age of 82. His music has had a profound effect in the development of Andy's musical education along the way. For this episode, Andy paired up with Jonathan Petrus (Ranking The Beatles) and vinylbenjy (of Instagram fame) as all three of us have a shared ...

 Welcome Back 2Legs Fam!

It's been nearly 20 years since Paul's latter day 21st Century Masterpiece Chaos and Creation In The Backyard. Where did that time go? To accompany and promote the record Paul held an intimate gathering of fans and friends at Abbey Road, recorded in Studio 2 to demonstrate some of the creative processes that he and The Beatles used to employ there and have a bit of fun along the way. Filmed on 28 July 2005...

We finally were able to record a proper episode again after a few hectic weeks post-Fest and Venus and Mars 50th Anniversary. This week on 2Legs Andy and Tom talk Macca Remixes!

A Bonus Episode this week!
