Fine Tuning: Ep 4 Shells & Barriers

SYNOPSIS: This episode explores Tune In’s unequal treatment of John Lennon and Paul McCartney's childhoods, with particular attention paid to the disparate coverage of their childhood stressors and the deaths of their mothers, Julia and Mary.

We go pretty deep into what we know of John and Paul's boyhoods and how those experiences shaped their personalities and affected their adult behaviors, 

Does Tune In do the same? For both? We’ll see!
