Breakfast with the Beatles





Sunday (1/11) The Beatles 1965





In January of 1965, The Beatles 65 (released in the US only) hit the charts. 

This was the fastest-selling album of the year, shifting over a million copies in it’s first week. It knocked Elvis Presley’s Roustabout off the top, before being dethroned by the Mary Poppins and Goldfinger soundtracks(!)  This week we'll hear the whole album, and check out the other albums released by The Beatles in 1965.  It's the whole year in 3 hours.

Some things you DON'T talk about - Mason and Howe talk about.
The northern California atheist who has fought to remove the words "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance has joined a lawsuit seeking to remove all religious references from President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration. Michael Newdow, from Sacramento, believes government references to God or religion are unconstitutional. He wants to remove the phrase "so help me God" from the oath of office, noting that it isn't in the oath set out in the Constitution. The lawsuit also seeks to block inaugural prayers by the Rev. Rick Warren and the Rev. Joseph Lowery. He filed a lawsuit Tuesday in D.C. Newdow sued to remove religion from inaugurations in 2001 and 2005 but lost both. Well, Pamela brought it up - and it gave Mason the chance to figure out what to do with people who make a big deal out of things that just aren't a big deal. Or did he? Listen here.
