Our annual holiday tradition is providing a year-end review episode covering the big Beatles and solo releases of 2025: the Anthology 4 launch and remasters, streaming-only content and marketing missteps, major John Lennon and Paul McCartney archival sets, George’s quiet reissues, Ringo’s strong country album and vinyl runs, the Sam Mendes film buzz, notable books and merch, plus non-Beatles reissue standouts and a seasonal gift guide. We also discuss the highs, lows, fan reactions and what to watch for in 2026.
