He took to his Instagram stories explaining that they stopped to change the wheels off the train on their trek to Poland.
‘I’m at a station about 20, 30, 40, I don’t actually know where I’m at but like 30 minutes before the Polish border, they stopped to change wheels on the train, I can’t make this up and let us out… for fresh air and I went to the bathroom and now we’re going back and this is the train,’ as he showed train and the crowds.
‘So now that I see it, there’s… yesterday I didn’t see it it was night I had no idea where we were… 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 cars about 130-something people each and one cart that is all sicker kids and people… its not as packed but all the others are packed to the brink.
Maks said it was a stop about ‘thirty minutes from the Polish border’ as he walked to the bathroom.

Speaking out: Maksim, 42, shared a detailed account of his trek to Warsaw, Poland, revealing he was starting his train journey on Monday after he got arrested in Kyiv. The father of one arrived to Warsaw after 31 hours of no sleep
His reality: ‘I’m at a station about 20, 30, 40, I don’t actually know where I’m at but like 30 minutes before the Polish border, they stopped to change wheels on the train, I can’t make this up and let us out… for fresh air and I went to the bathroom and now we’re going back and this is the train,’ as he showed train and the crowds
He said there’s about 130 people on each of the five cars on the train, noting that one cart is only for sick children and people so its not as packed as the other four.
The star then showed off the poor conditions of the bathroom he was forced to use during the train stop.
After his arrival to Poland, Maks revealed he’s been running on 31 hours no sleep.
He took a moment to thank the Polish people: ‘I absolutely have to say this: Polish people are amazing!!!! Thank you from the absolute bottom of my heart and soul,’ adding a prayer sign, heart and hands in the air emoji.
Maksim followed it up with footage from people showing Ukrainians allegedly stealing a tank from the Russian army.
Gratitude: He took a moment to thank the Polish people: ‘I absolutely have to say this: Polish people are amazing!!!! Thank you from the absolute bottom of my heart and soul,’ adding a prayer sign, heart and hands in the air emoji
He also posted stories showing expired food the Russian army allegedly issued their militia, with the date of 2015.
Maks later wrote: ‘Russian state propaganda machine will say my last post is fake. Fundamentally flawed way of governing humans by using propaganda (lies) and fear. Benn there, done that… emigrated.’
Maksim lives in California with wife Peta Murgatroyd and their son Shai, five; the dancing pro was born in Ukraine but immigrated to New York with his parents and brother Val in 1994, where they became US citizens.

Another clip showed children making camouflage nets to help in their battle, and another was of an elderly woman with graphic injuries, with her foot blown off.
The Ukrainian star updated followers in series of social media posts on Monday, detailing his ‘traumatizing’ attempt to get out of the country amid the Russian invasion.
Chmerkovskiy, who has been in Kyiv working as a judge on the Ukrainian version of World of Dance, had planned on staying in his native land when the fighting first broke out, however, after he got a ‘reality check’ by being arrested he decided to flee.
The country announced last week that men of fighting age – between 18-60 – were prohibited from leaving Ukraine but since Maks holds a U.S. passport, he is exempt from the mandate.

‘I made it on the train. We’re heading to Warsaw (hopefully). Train to Lviv was not an option,’ the choreographer penned. ‘The situation at the train station is insane. AT first it feels manageable, but it get A LOT worse when it comes time to actually board the train.’
‘Long story but all I can say now is that I’m a big man with nothing but a backpack it’s TRAUMATIZING,’ he continued. ‘Currently I’m in a cabin with 4 adults and 7 kids (ages 2-11) which is usually only occupied by maximum of 3 people.’
Maksim revealed that the train car that he’s currently traveling in is outfitted for roughly 30 riders but refugees were told they needed to fit 135 people inside.
‘Walkways are packed. People everywhere. It’s sweaty and claustrophobic,’ he said. Photos from a train station in illustrate the reality star’s situation. Thousands of people were seen bundled up in freezing temperatures standing practically on top of one another as they attempted to get a train out of the country.

One of the lucky ones: Ukraine announced last week that men of fighting age – between 18-60 – were prohibited from leaving Ukraine but since Maks holds a U.S. passport, he is exempt from the mandate
Fighting-aged men are prohibited from leaving Ukraine under a new mandate so the trains are filled primarily with women and children.
Back in the 1990s, Maksim and his family emigrated to the United States and thus he holds a U.S. passport, allowing him the rare opportunity to flee for safety.
‘What finally broke me is when I was watching an eight-ish year old boy, hysterically crying and not wanting to let go of his father,’ he wrote in a heartbreaking post on Instagram. ‘Verbatim: “if you stay I want to stay too because if they kill you I won’t be able to help”.’
His wife, Peta Murgatroyd, shared his post on her social media feed saying she was ‘so f**king proud’ of her husband for helping out the refugee children.
Maks’ decision to finally leave Kyiv came after he was arrested while in the capital city amid the Russian military assault.

‘The streets are crazy,’ he said. ‘At one point I got arrested but again all good, promise. That was probably the least traumatizing moment in this whole thing as far as Ukraine is concerned, but for me, it was just a reality check.’
‘I’m going to try and make my way out. I’m going to start making my way towards the border. I have options.’ Adding: ‘Just a little nervous but I think it’s going to be alright. I know it’s going to be okay.
Maksim posted graphic videos to his stories and grid throughout Ukraine, as the star says he’s tried and stressed out after seeing innocent people being killed.
He said on Sunday: ‘I’m in a very safe place but this is nuts and I think everybody is going through a lot of emotions and i think it’s time I expose mine in a more personal manner.
‘This is a war. This is a crazy situation. It’s insane and I’m losing my final little things. This is not a cry for help. I’m a big boy. I can handle myself.. but I’m starting to not be able to just sort of keep my head.’
Support: His wife, Peta Murgatroyd, shared his post on her social media feed saying she was ‘so f**king proud’ of her husband for helping out the refugee children
‘The reality is, I just want to go home. I’m just hoping for a safe ending to it all.’
His wife Peta, 35, took to Instagram on Sunday with an emotional message in which she shared that an empathetic group of strangers had made a kind gesture to her amid the absence of Maksim.
‘Although I’m going through hell right now and I want it all to end…[there] is light that shines through the darkness,’ said Murgatroyd, who is mother to five-year-old son Shai with Chmerkovskiy, who she wed in July of 2017.
Murgatroyd, an alum of Dancing With the Stars, remains at the family’s home in California amid the uncertain time. She said that strangers baked her cookies ‘and proudly brought them to [her] door.
‘They stood there with smiles so wide. Let me repeat … strangers, whom I don’t talk to thought that they should get in their kitchen and bake me cookies,’ she said. ‘They also took it upon themselves to google if I was allergic to anything, just to make sure they weren’t hurting me.’

Chmerkovskiy has also provided frequent social media updates amid the conflict, as he said Thursday he had not attempted to leave the country due to safety concerns around the border of Poland. The professional dancer said he felt his odds for departure from the Ukraine were helped in having an American passport.
Chmerkovskiy added that the conflict had taken an emotional toll on him, as he said he ‘will never be the same’ in the wake of the invasion.
‘This is stressful and I’m getting old feelings back, like I’ve done this before,’ he said Thursday. ‘This does feel like the way it was when and why we left in the 90s. Like my old PTSD I’ve finally fixed is coming back.’
On Sunday, Chmerkovskiy took to Instagram Stories with a number of messages, urging people in the dance community in European countries to help take care of refugees if they were able to. He shared a number of links to resources to help people exit safely amid the ongoing military conflict.
Chmerkovskiy also wrote, ‘Russia needs a revolution!!! Russian people are being lied to!!! Russians! Wake up! It will take you generations to get over this and generations of people around the world will never forgive you!!!’
On Sunday, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered to put nuclear weapons on enhanced alert for ‘special regime of combat duty’ amid heightened tensions with Europe and the United States following the invasion.
Putin cited aggression toward Russia from NATO as well as economic sanctions and moves shutting down Russian banking institutions using the banking system SWIFT.
The U.N. Security Council is slated to hold an emergency meeting regarding the invasion Monday.

Just days after Disney quietly confirmed that all of Marvel’s Netflix shows will be migrating to Disney Plus for Canadian audiences this March, we now know when all six of the series will make a similar leap to Disney’s own streaming service in the United States.
Today, Disney announced that in mid-March, Derdeville, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron fist, Defenders, The punisherand ABC SHIELD agents will start streaming Disney Plus along with all the other Marvel superhero programs, a sign that can indicate the future of these characters in MCU. In a press release shared this morning, Disney’s streaming president, Michael Paul, described the upcoming IP return as a further unification of the Marvel brand and as a kind of evolution of Disney Plus as a platform.
“We’ve been very successful with Disney Plus in our global markets, and we’ll continue to do so here in the United States, offering our users not only great content, but a range of features that help provide the most enjoyable viewing experience. “Suitable for them and their families,” Paul said.
Disney Plus content is generally much more targeted to younger audiences in the United States than other countries such as Canada, where the platform includes the more adult-oriented Star Content Center. Therefore, Disney is also preparing to introduce a new set of parental controls, including restrictions on profile-specific assessments, individual user profile PIN locking, and Exit Against Children issues, designed to prevent children from messing with adult settings. .
Given how graphical former Netflix impressions are compared to their Marvel-based cousins, it makes sense for Disney to take similar steps. Interestingly, however, the studio chose the Disney Plus route instead of moving Defenders and so on. to Hulu, where R-rated movies and TV-MA shows with Marvel characters like Deadpool and MODOK currently live.
Derdeville, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron fist, Defenders, The punisher, SHIELD agentsand all new parental control features are set to hit Disney Plus on March 16th.
Updated March 1, 12:28 PM ET: This article has been updated with a more recent quote from Michael Paul.

Jesse Williams and ex-wife Arin Drake-Lee have changed their custody agreement over their two children so he can star in a Broadway play this summer in New York.
The former Gray’s Anatomy star was reportedly in court last week with her ex, where a judge signed changes designed to best meet their existing order of shared legal custody of Maceo and Sadie.
Jesse and Arin have been married for five years and reportedly dated for a total of 13 years before ending their relationship in 2017, which has since become a difficult, three-year divorce process, finalized in October 2020.
It is officially over: The divorce of Jesse Williams and Arin Drake-Lee has been finalized after almost three years of litigation; seen in 2010
TMZ reported that “the judge denied her request to reduce his physical time with the children” and instead gave Jesse “four consecutive days with the children” and two of those days were allowed over the weekend.
Williams will star in the Broadway production of Take Me Out from March to June.
The gossip site also announced that Jesse has been given “powers to break the tie” for 2022 regarding disputes with COVID-19, if the former couple can not agree on “vaccinations or face masks for children.” .
In addition, at her request, “the judge agreed that the actor can not cancel and then cancel” scheduled time with his children.
The former couple will meet again in court to change the custody agreement after the summer is over.
Sad: The couple has been married for five years and reportedly met for a total of 13 years before announcing their separation in 2017; seen in 2016
At one point last year, Jesse and Arin were ordered to attend a parenting course on “high conflict” after he reportedly “failed to change previous court orders on custody and visits” for their two children.
The Parenting Class is “an online six-session program providing strategies for reducing conflicts in co-parenting relationships.”
As part of their divorce, Arin retained the former family home in LA, along with locations in Brooklyn and Auckland.
She will also “keep the 2017 Audi Q7 SUV and the 2018 Q5 SUV, while Jesse will keep her Porsche Cayenne 2018 rental SUV.”
Documents reveal that the couple should “meet and consult with each other about posting photos of the children on social media.”

Money: The 39-year-old actor will be able to keep a profit of 936,810 dollars after their separation in 2017 from his concert Grey’s Anatomy, according to TMZ
The documents also say that Jesse “owes $ 50,629 a month for the two children until October 2019, and then $ 40,000 a month thereafter.”
He will be responsible for paying Arin’s husband’s alimony of $ 50,695 for August 2019 and September 2019, but no additional payments are required thereafter.
A judge also announced in October that Jesse could keep $ 936,810 in profits after their separation in 2017 from his Gray’s concert.
At one point during their controversial divorce, Jesse was paying more than $ 100,000 a month in alimony.
The couple reportedly agreed to the agreement in September 2019, but is now officially signed by the judge.

Ralph Ann, who played Nick Miller’s elderly friend, Tran New girl, died on February 26. He was 95 years old. The news of his death was announced by the Korean-American Federation of Los Angeles (KAFLA) in social networks.
The publication, originally written in Korean, reads:
Above all, I am deeply shocked and saddened by the sudden death of the late teacher Ralph Ann.
Ralph Ann is the only surviving direct descendant of the nation’s teacher, Dosan Ann Chang-ho, and he dedicated his life to passing on the spirit and faith of Dosan to his descendants.
He was also the greatest spiritual leader of our time, surviving the time and history that passed on the aspirations of many activists for independence from the past generation to our current generation.
Even the now-moving image of Korea marching with Lee Sook Huang during the 100th anniversary of the March 1 Movement held on Wilshire Street in 2019, with a vigorous mastery of Taegeukgi, is as vivid as yesterday, with an emotion that our generation will never forget. The Korean Association of Los Angeles, on behalf of the Korean community in Los Angeles, deeply mourns the news of Ralph Ann’s death and expresses its deepest condolences to the grieving family.
Jake Johnson paid tribute to his deceased New girl partner with an Instagram post on February 28 that reads: “RIP. So much fun to work with. He gave so much literally without remarks. I loved it when he was on set. I’ve always expected to work with him again. Condolences to his family / friends. ”
Lamorn Morris, who played Winston New girltoo went to Instagram to pay tribute to Anne, writing: “Damn. RIP to Ralph Ann. He plays Tran in New Girl. Always the funniest scenes in the episode. This man has lived a long life, keep your friends and family in all thoughts and prayers. ”
Olivia Munn, who played Angie, one of Nick’s friends on the show, wrote in a story on Instagram: “Thank you, Ralph Ann, for being the best. You have brought so much joy into our lives and helped pave the way for all the AAPI actors who would follow you. We love you. REST IN PEACE.”
While Tran became his most recognizable character, Anne had small roles in various other hit TV shows, including Gilmore girls, The King of Queens, The Golden Girlsand The good life. His last time on the screen was for New girl finale of the series in 2018
No, really, they literally showed us the final scene of the ashtray seven episodes ago.
The finale of the season Euphoria appeared on our screens this week and had a rather mixed reaction, to put it mildly.
Fans of the show have accused its creator and screenwriter Sam Levinson of leaving too many storylines unresolved and are not impressed that they now have to wait for the expected release of Season 3 in 2024 to get answers.
I realized that I had to wait until season 3 to get answers to my 785 questions. # Euphoria

There was also confusion about the four-minute musical performance of Elliott (Dominic Fique) and several questions were raised about the fate of the main characters.
Fesco, played by Angus Cloud, is one of the characters left in the dark, with viewers last seeing him taken away by a SWAT team while receiving a gunshot wound to the abdomen.
Although it has not been confirmed, it is speculated that Fes will survive his injury, but whether he will face jail for the attack on his house and Custer’s death remains to be seen.
Ashtray met a horrible end after he stabbed Custer in the throat and fired a machine gun at the authorities while hiding in the bathroom.
Viewers were devastated by the young man’s death, but some of the more eagles among us were not very surprised, as they pointed out that Ashtray’s fate was obvious from the first episode of Season 2.
In the last few weeks, additional hints have been removed both on and off the screen. Here we will look at all the clues that have been missed.
As mentioned, Ashtray’s untimely death was largely confirmed in the first episode of this season, in which Fez was portrayed as a character.
In the episode, Ryu’s account details Fess’s upbringing, revealing that he was adopted by his grandmother Marie as a child and that she introduced him to the drug trade.
Ashtray’s origins are also confirmed in the episode, with Rue explaining that someone left their baby with Marie as collateral, but they never returned to pick him up.
He got his name after he was caught eating Marie’s old cigarettes from the ashtray as a child, and she and Fez took him under their wing and made him join their drug business as soon as he was old enough.
Discussing Fez’s relationship with Ashtray in the story, Ryu explains: “Ash was his brother. He loved him like a brother. “
People have already pointed out that Rue’s past use in this statement is blatant evidence that Ash will die, but most viewers didn’t even realize it.
Posting a video from that moment on TikTok, one fan wrote: “I never noticed that she was talking in the past, which means it was obvious that he would die all the time and no one knew.”
“I’ve been saying this from the beginning,” said another. While another tagged a friend and boasted, “I told you, my detective skills.”
One viewer claims that Rue always tells stories in the past, but others point out that she does so only for events that have already happened – not for relationships or facts that would still be true the moment she speaks.
The original user replied: “It would not be” was “, because even in the past, if he was still [alive] he would be again [his] brother. “
Another explained, “She does, but we would assume that if Ash was still alive at the time Ryu was telling her story, she would have said, ‘Ash is his brother.'”
As if that wasn’t enough, it was now revealed that we were shown everything, but-but-shown the death of Ashtray in this episode with another subtle detail.
A flash from the last scene of the character is depicted through a yellow fog, while Ryu explains the childhood trauma to Fez’s head.
“It was his first dark spot. He didn’t really remember anything for at least two months, “she said off camera. “Only from time to time an image and an insurmountable fear of who will take care of the Ashtray.”
In the blink of an eye and you’ll miss it, Ashtray’s face appears on the screen before the SWAT team shoots him in the head, but of course viewers had no way of understanding the sad context behind this scene at the time.
well … it’s season 2, epic 1, where Fez is hit by a lever, Roo starts talking about the dark spots he had when he forgot everything for two months. they go into that sequence of images and I see that … the part where the ashtray dies. they already foretell it. # Euphoria

It is also claimed that the relationship between Fes and Ashtray, which is at the center of Episode 1, is a huge hint that the season will pass in full circle and end in death.
Tweeting before the finale aired, one fan remarked: “Listen to me: Season 2 started off weird with Fez & Ashtray. And I think it’s over with them … this first episode emphasized the connection between Fes and the ashtray. I think Ashtray will die and Fez will go to jail.
Listen to me: season 2 started weird with Fez & Ashtray. And I think it ends with them … this first episode emphasized the connection between Fez & Ashtray. I think Ashtray will die & fez goes to jail.

Another called the showrunner, writing: “Honestly, I’m not surprised Ashtray died. The first episode really foreshadowed him with Fez, who talks about how important Ash is to him. Sam, you’re not slippery!

A third tweeted, “You’re all so shocked by Ashtray’s death, as if the first episode wasn’t about how close they were, using contextual evidence, bby.”

Before the finale aired, it was widely believed that Fez would be a hero who would die, especially when the trailer for Episode 8 was released and showed that Fez seemed to be in pain while lying on the floor.
During Ashtray’s final moments, Fez had told him to run away and that he would take responsibility for Custer’s murder, only to deny Ashtray and lock himself in the bathroom with his weapon.
It has already been pointed out that Ashtray has been incredibly protected by Fez all season, so we needed to know that he will probably sacrifice himself before allowing anything to happen to his older brother.
Again, this was mostly reflected in the first episode of Season 2, with Ashtray killing Mouse with a hammer when he thought Fes was in danger.
He is also the one who constantly monitors video surveillance in their home and the first to reach for weapons when he thinks they may be in danger. As a result, it’s pretty safe to assume that as long as Ashtray is around, Fez will be safe.
“Ashtray makes sense, he’s literally a child and in this situation he did everything for the fez, he always did it, even if it wasn’t right, the show was never an option, he was loyal, protective and impulsive for the fez. the end “, tweeted one person.
#ehphoria ashtray makes sense, imo, he’s literally a kid and in this situation he did everything for the fez, he always did it, even if it wasn’t right, the show was never an option, he was loyal, protective and impulsive for the fez to the end

A second agreed: “Obviously he is, not a fez. He was always ready and defended the fezzes to the end. “
I will really miss the ashtray when he says words tonight, as if it is obvious that it will be him, not the fez. he was always ready and defended the fezzes to the end.

Others claimed that the trailer was a red herring and it seemed too obvious that Fes would die, which meant he probably wouldn’t.
“I think they’re trying to make it seem obvious that something is going on with Fez, but I think it’s going to be our favorite ashtray,” he said.
And another thing, I think they are trying to make it seem obvious that something is going on with Fez, but I think this will be our favorite ashtray 💔

Reacting to the trailer, another echoed, “Okay, but if Fes was really dying, they wouldn’t have made it so obvious – he was probably just shot or something trying to protect the ashtray (which is really dying).”
Okay, but if Fes was really dying, they wouldn’t make it so obvious 😭 he’s probably just been shot or something trying to protect the ashtray (who’s really dying)

There were some pretty big clues off the screen that Javon was working on Euphoria it was also coming to an end.
In fact, viewers claim that the 15-year-old actor will apparently grow old too much in the time between the filming of Season 2 and Season 3, which will create problems with continuity.
It would make more sense if they killed the ashtray, not the fez, because the ashtray will look much older in season 3 and disrupt continuity.

Season 2 started exactly at the same time as Season 1 ended, and if the same is planned for Season 3, then Javon is likely to look much older this time.
Javon also spoke openly about focusing on other career paths while season 2 aired. In January, it was announced that he would participate in the third season of Umbrella Academyand the actor is also a skilled boxer and gymnast.
Despite his success as an actor, Javon has previously acknowledged that this is not his top priority, saying Whistle Sports: “My biggest goal is to go to the Olympics and I just want to be famous for all my sports.”
Fans also noticed that Javon was the only major Euphoria a member of the cast did not admit that the show had been renewed for a third season earlier last month, suggesting he would not be participating.

While other stars, including Angus, shared their excitement for EuphoriaJavon’s future was not commented on, and many took it as confirmation that he would not return.

However, the actor is annoyed that Ashtray may not be dead after all, telling Esquire: “I hope he’s alive. Because I’m sure he wasn’t shot just once, hiding in the bathtub and being shot through the wall.
But given that the last scene we saw him strongly hinted that he had been shot in the middle of his forehead at close range, I would definitely not hold my breath for his return.

Фor teenage Janice Mitchell, hearing the Beatles’ I Want to Hold Your Hand on American radio in December 1963 affected her in ways she still can’t express. “How do you explain why? [you were] electrified when you were struck by lightning? “she says, laughing.
I Want to Hold Your Hand not only sounded more interesting than the other songs in the rotation of the station in her hometown, the single is an escape from a difficult childhood. Mitchell from Cleveland, Ohio, grew up with careless parents who eventually abandoned her and two younger siblings. And 1963 was another difficult year. Mitchell was swayed by the death of her beloved great uncle, one of the few adults who had shown her kindness.
The arrival of the Beatles gave a glimmer of hope. “I realized I wanted to go where the Beatles came from because I decided that happiness would be there,” Mitchell said. “That was my goal: to go there and breathe the Beatles’ air, walk the sacred lands of the Beatles, and have a happy life.”
Mitchell fulfilled her wish, as she described in her captivating book My Ticket to Ride: How I Ran Away to England to Meet the Beatles and Got Rock and Roll Banned in Cleveland. She and another ingenious friend successfully left the United States and spent three blissful weeks in England in the autumn of 1964, enjoying London’s nightlife and sights and even visiting Liverpool – although, unfortunately, they did not cross paths with any of them. The Beatles.

My Ticket to Ride is far from the only Beatles book published last year. Most notably, Paul McCartney’s bestseller “The Texts: 1956 to the Present” arrived weeks after the Beatles: Return, an accompanying piece to Peter Jackson’s long-running documentary. But Mitchell’s memoirs are one of the few Beatles books written by a woman in the ’60s since they released their debut single. The Beatles have profoundly shaped and enriched women’s lives, but literature, journalism, and critical science – with a few notable exceptions – tend to focus disproportionately on how men experience and value the band and its music.
“For a Generation X woman coming in the 1990s, the chances of publishing a story or an interview with the Beatles in a major issue are 100-1,” said music journalist Christy York Wooten. Yet in recent years, more and more scholars, journalists, musicians and podcasters have challenged the Beatles’ conventional narratives and expanded who could talk about the band. For Wooten, this change is long overdue. “The media coverage of the band’s evolution portrays women as bystanders, which makes our stories about the impact of music lower or just tied to fans.”
Fiery Beatles fans are not always viewed in a positive light, despite how vital they were to the band’s success. As critic Sasha Geffen wrote in Glitter Up the Dark: How Pop Music Broke the Couple: “Without the Beatles, there are no Beatles. Each group forges its own identity with the other. ” And yet the narrow stereotype of a Beatles fan that crystallized in the 1960s – imagine a teenage girl screaming at the band because they are so cute – continues.
“Women scientists who are also Beatles fans still run the risk of being perceived more as fans than as an authoritative voice,” said Dr. Christine Feldman-Barrett, a senior professor of sociology at Griffith University and author of last year’s A The Beatles’ Women’s Story. “The legacy of the Beatles ” hysterical ‘fan’ is such that I believe it has made many women reluctant to write about the Beatles until recently.”
Feldman-Barrett’s book is a comprehensive correction of outdated ways of thinking. It delves into less covered topics ripe for analysis (such as how the Beatles influenced women musicians) and takes a fresh look at Beatlemania, the women of the Beatles universe, and fan relationships with the band.
The book grows out of Feldman-Barrett’s lifelong appreciation for the group, which opened her eyes to other topics, such as “British history, interest in Eastern spirituality in the 1960s,” she said. “It really was a portal for different interests.” As Geffen writes, “A girl can put her desire into a group, but she can also find herself there.”
Decades later, the Beatles’ ability to arouse curiosity has been preserved for generations. Growing up in the United Kingdom, musician and writer Stephanie Phillips was struck by the Beatles’ cultural ubiquity. “As a young man who wanted to develop my own sense of self, it almost felt amazing,” she said. Entering the band’s music in the 1920s through louder covers of American bands such as Pixies and Throwing Muses “gave the Beatles that alternative luster and almost made them sound like a vague underground cult band,” she said.

Such sonic freedom of action shapes the music that Phillips makes in the punk band Big Joanie – it refers to both the “experimental song structures” of the White Album and the stretched song of the Beatles’ “earlier, pop-oriented” albums – and helped her to reinforce a different perception of the group. “My version of the Beatles wrote short and vivid love songs, experimented with every possible genre, and was clear about the cultures they were influenced by,” she said. “I think it’s a broader and more inclusive version of the Beatles than the band I grew up listening to on television as a child.”
Dr. Holly Tesler vividly remembers hearing news of the assassination of John Lennon in 1980, although she did not know who the musician was at the time. “Because I was a stupid kid, instead of listening to music, I decided it was going to be a research project,” she said. The 10-year-old borrowed Nicholas Schaffner’s Liverpool Boys Library and spent the next few weeks reading (and re-reading) the book, “bored all my friends and family,” falsifying them with facts from the Beatles. “After what must have been an infinite amount of time, my parents just said, ‘Here, kid, listen to music.’ And there was no going back.”
Tesler’s subsequent insatiable interest in all aspects of the Beatles led her to academia and the founding of the Liverpool Beatles’ Master’s program: Music Industry and Heritage. Launched in September 2021, it offers an in-depth study of the group’s cultural, media and economic impact. Tesler says the class is diverse, including new graduates to mature students in their 60s. “I was a little worried that there would be a big split,” she said. “Everyone is connected now. And they’re all a happy little group of Beatles students together. “
Younger generations of Beatles fans, who joined the band long after they disbanded, are even less attached to the hard historical stories surrounding the band, Tesler said. “[They’re] much more involved in gender and sexuality debates than earlier generations would have been. ”
This is a conversation that has expanded from the world of podcasts. “I see more young fans wanting to move away from the ‘who we blame for separation’ approach and more to an approach that analyzes everyone’s individual experiences, emotions and views,” said Talia Reynolds, co-host of Other Minds. a different kind of Beatles podcast with Daphne Mitchell and Phoebe Lord. The show works as a team of representing voices thoroughly studied episodes (excerpt: “Jealous Man: Lennon-McCartney and Competitive Admiration”). “We thought it was time for the Beatles to discuss with empathy and humanity,” says Lord. “It means making an effort to see things from every angle.”

Podcast co-hosts say the Beatles have shaped their lives in many ways: influencing them to perform, write and develop respect for music; deepening friendships; and even find solace in discussions on topics such as John Lennon’s sexuality. “The Beatles’ music, their story, their selves are uniquely soothing,” says Mitchell.
It is not necessarily a fact that several generations of Beatles fans will understand each other. Alison Boron grew up as a fan of the Monkees and the Beatles. As a teenager, she eventually found soul mates in the latter’s nascent online community of about Y2K. “I can’t imagine who I would be without the Beatles,” she said. “Sometimes it sounds crazy when I hear myself say that, but there’s really no way they haven’t affected my life. An early job with a local Beatles tribute band sparked her interest in the music industry, where she works today.
In 2018, she launched the podcast BC the Beatles. Boron remembers how she and co-host Erica White received a lot of encouragement from older fans. But they have also experienced age, sexism and fan management. “We came across people who didn’t think we had a place at the table because we weren’t there in the first place,” she said. “It was difficult for us to be taken seriously.”
Empathy for the unjustly slandered Yoko Ono inspired the launch of the All About the Girl, a Liverpool-based podcast. “I’ve heard all sorts of things about her all my life, that she’s a talentless destructive force or a joke,” says co-host Chloe Walls. It wasn’t until I started doing my own research that I realized the complete bad service done to her by the mass story. The Walls fell in love with Ono’s music as they explored the Beatles after watching the 2019 film Yesterday; she was “annoyed” by how the film “fundamentally misunderstood what makes the Beatles great.”
Several podcasters interviewed mentioned Beatles fan fiction and fan art as an influence on their fandom – and especially that of younger generations. For Walls, the Beatles’ online fandom was also formative, as it “allowed me to be creative in a space with other people with similar views” and also introduced her to her partner (and podcast co-host) Daisy Cooper. The couple met in 2020 on Tumblr, “in a discussion about the relationship between John and Paul,” says Wallace.
As an adult, My Ticket to Ride author Mitchell worked as a journalist and private detective. As she wrote her book, she used these skills to try to understand aspects of her painful childhood. She found more empathy for her younger self – as well as a view on how listening to I Want to Hold Your Hand changed the trajectory of her life. “If I had never heard of the Beatles at that time, my life would have been completely different.
