Beatlemania hits classic sitcoms in 1964-1965! Our podcast, the Rocklopedia Fakebandica, discusses various Beatlesque bands from a variety of TV shows, as well as the many pseudonyms and joke names adopted by the Beatles themselves and in their solo careers.
We look at fictional bands that are covers for secret agents from spy movies and shows, a few of which are absolutely bonkers!
Including Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp, and his Evolution Revolution, Roy Orbison, The Phynx, Archer, and Bond Girl Maryam d’Abo!
