Take It Away, and 2legs both do a much better job of presenting and discussing McCartney's solo work. Skip.Read full review »

Your Now and Then episode is by far the best one I’ve heard yet. Thank you for so much detail!

I really enjoy this podcast. Hardcore McCartney fan here. Sam is very entertaining and I enjoy his detailed analysis of all things Paul. Great guests too. Big recommend for all Paul fans everywhere.

So glad I stumbled on this podcast. I’ve been on a Beatles exploration for a few years -better late than never - and this has taken me down quite the Paul worm hole. Inspiring me to revisit songs I thought I knew and walking me through albums I’ve never heard. Incredibly well researched,...Read full review »

Sam’s podcast is great, it offers me countless hours of enjoyable listening while I work, drive, and do anything else where I can have a podcast in the background. Paul or Nothing is fun and informative, I rate it 5 stars!

This is the best McCartney podcast. The host, Sam Whiles, is an exceptionally clever and entertaining host. He focuses exclusively on post-Beatles McCartney, which is a vast sea of great music and creativity. And like a skilled navigator, Sam knows every eddy and shoal. He’s not an uncritical...Read full review »

Great show fab supremo Sam. The music should be a little lower.
jorge beat via Apple Podcasts · Portugal · 02/20/22
I love this podcast. Interesting, funny and well researched, Sam is an engaging presenter whose shows are always worth a listen. Some top guests feature too. I suppose it takes all sorts of people to make a world, but if you’re a fan of the music, you have to rate this programme highly. Unlike...Read full review »

If you’re going to be condescending, make it funny!

I have just discovered this podcast, and I love listening to Sam on my drive to and from work everyday! Love love love the episode after Sam went to the concert! Looking forward to more.

So much fun being on this Paul journey with such an entertaining host.

It’s just Amazing. It’s simply that. Listen and you will understand.
Jv6-- via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/29/21
Much like The Beatles songs themselves, there are also Beatles podcasts for nearly every mood / vibe you could want. Sam strikes a fantastic balance of fun, reverence and sincerity for all things Paul. While I don’t always agree, I always listen - Sam puts the work in on making great and...Read full review »

Enjoy this podcast. Sam is endearingly nerdy and his enthusiasm shines through. Especially love when he has Phoebe from the Another Kind Of Mind/One Sweet Dream podcasts on, their back and forth is hilarious. Keep it up Sam!
Caroline-S. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/29/21
Really enjoyable podcast about a great artist. Sam the host is kind of an enthusiastic amateur, which I mean in a good way, not a know-it-all. He has a puppy dog energy that’s really engaging. This has become one of my go-to podcasts.

Great podcast
Tedward2017 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/21
Very informative. Any opportunity to listen to good chats about McCartneys albums is great. This satisfies both the geek fan who knows every inch of his work to the occasional listener looking to get on the melodic rollercoaster!
BOS-Beatle via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 01/31/21
As someone in my early 60’s I have lived through the majority of Paul’s career, however, I’m thoroughly enjoying learning tons of stuff I didn’t know and have discovered some great music I didn’t know existed. Hat’s off to Sam for his enthusiasm and diligence in doing the research and presenting...Read full review »

Hilarious, Insightful

Sam offers a great blend of humour perspective and information to make this a great show for veteran McCartney fans and novices alike.

I’m obsessed with Sir Paul!!!!

This is my got to place for all of my Paul 95% of the time.

I found this searching for a podcast that covered the McCartney 3 announcement. This podcast is entertaining and informative. Can’t wait to dig through some of the older episodes!
ZMadd1212 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/20
I appreciate your hard work!
321056406 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/20
I find this show to be original and fun, with host Sam Whiles looking at the career of Sir Paul McCartney from the angle of someone who knew nothing about a lot of the discography before checking it out for the podcast. A fascinating programme that reminds me of when I first came across these...Read full review »

The host, Sam Whiles, is young and enthusiastic and a joy to listen to. He is also an excellent interviewer, one of the very best in the Beatle podcast world!
ATLartistyah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/20
I discovered this podcast several years after Sam started recording it, so I am still catching up to the current podcasts. I am an original Beatles fan and a forever Paul McCartney fan. I saw The Beatles in person (1964 - Jacksonville, Florida) and I have seen Paul McCartney in concert four...Read full review »

-Vulgar language. No reason for that. -Sam Whiles is not informed about all of McCartney’s work (however, he admits it). -He actually has the nerve to ask you to give him a 5 star rating. Not just a review and rating, but a 5 star rating! -His thoughts go all over the place. He hardly...Read full review »

And with that one line, Sam had me hooked. Seriously, I have been listening to this podcast for several months and have been enjoying every second. The occasional foul words do not spoil it for me. What finally convinced me to write a five star review was the recent episode examining the...Read full review »
Judge Timbers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/20
Okay....I went from 5 stars to 2 stars...well, now I am going back to 5 stars. Sam's podcast, like many albums from Paul takes time to simmer and lodge deep in the brain and then suddenly initial feelings and response have changed. In Paul's case this is nearly always posiitve. In...Read full review »

Hi Sam Bit late to the party but I love your pod. Please keep going with “listen with “ so good to hear your thoughts Looking forward to your next review Thanks again Go Macca!!! Mark H

Love this show, I like the chatty nature of it with some great guests! Sorry for nagging about always singing ‘here today’!! Great fun podcast with lots of detail
shitzu99 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/19/20
First the good news. Sam is enthusiastic, diligent and thorough. But he is best when he has a guest, someone to interact with. A partner to edit and rein him in would be valuable. Alone, Sam goes off into streams of consciousness which are hard to follow. He has a juvenile tendency to start a...Read full review »

Enjoying the podcast, Sitting in the backyard and it’s a sunny day here in Oakdale New York and I’ve had a two hour conversation with an old friend and unfortunately I have been cursed/blessed with encyclopedic knowledge of all of these rock ‘n’ roll books that I’ve read and went through some...Read full review »

Samuel is an engaging host, and if his musical knowledge is only surface level, his enthusiasm is contagious. His strange hatred of "Kreen-Akrore" aside, I can't really disagree about any of his final judgements on McCartney's work. Samuel also knows how to get great guests on...Read full review »
Scott from Idaho via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/19
I came to this podcast quite by chance and it has been a delightful find. Sam is an irreverent,witty but warm host who's admirable knowledge and research is married to a conversational style that makes the podcasts fly by. The album by album chronological episodes are really in depth but...Read full review »
SinglePigeon via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/20/19
Sam Whiles approach to Macca is steam punk shock jock youthful apprach to macca and I love it! Paul or Nothing can be irrevaerant and sometimes missing the precise detail of something like All McCartney but Sam is a cross between Jimmy Carr purile humour and the eloquent vocab of Oscar Wilde. He...Read full review »

Just started listening while decorating and I’ve enjoyed it a great deal, especially the red rose speedway episode and the ones about Paul’s new material. Keep it up. Shaun

Lad1258 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/11/18
I was honestly confused whenever I read some of the reviews here. The host is more often than not very positive about Maccas work, and I was so pleased to find someone who appreciated Morse Moose and the Grey Goose like I do! :) Anyways, the critical reviews I’ve seen seem to be people who don’t...Read full review »
Mmarshfairc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/18
I like the slightly amateurish feel of the podcast but I just got the feeling the podcast didn't really care about Paul's work at all. Just a mass of mostly negative opinions. There is quite a lot of Paul's work I don't care for but the guys I were listening too just seemed to not...Read full review »
