EPISODE SUMMARY:

What better way is there to describe The Beatles other than "best band ever"? Well within that grandiose statement, there is a great deal of minutiae worth examining to better understand why that may be the case. For example, their 1965 album Help! might not be the most sophisticated record they ever produced. But as superstar comedian and diehard Beatlemaniac Jim Jefferies points out, it demonstrates both the trajectory they were on and the consistent skill and artistry they possessed throughout their relatively short career as a band.
