Thu 5 June 2025 12:45, UK The Cavern Club is a pretty unassuming place. Tucked away on a street in Liverpool, if not for all the signs pointing in its direction and the flock of tourists surrounding the place to take photos, you’d be at risk of walking straight by it. Still a functioning pub that sees singers take to the stage to deliver crowd-pleasing performances, it’s one of the most historically relevant venues in the UK, as it’s where The Beatles once called home.

Thu 5 June 2025 10:00, UK They don’t write love songs like they used to, do they? Well, maybe not, but at the same time, love doesn’t exist in the same way it used to. You can’t swipe for someone on Tinder and expect ‘God Only Knows’ by The Beach Boys to come out of it. “God only knows what I’d be without you?” Well, you’d probably still be swiping on Tinder.

Wed 4 June 2025 16:00, UK While we might love artists like Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and Black Sabbath, all of whom defined their own corners of rock and pop music, classical composers would despise them. This isn’t me pointing out the obvious and saying that maybe the palette of classical musicians from centuries will be different to Jimmy Page’s; however, it is a comment on how the use of effects within these different bands would rub romantic composers the wrong way.

Wed 4 June 2025 14:00, UK It’s always frustrating when people call The Beatles overrated because, while I revel in the subjective nature of music, there are some things which simply aren’t up for debate, and one of those things is the relevance of Pulp and whether or not they’re overrated.

Tue 3 June 2025 22:00, UK Famous science fiction author Arthur C Clarke was asked whether he believes aliens are real on multiple occasions. One of his most famous answers lives on in intergalactic studies and research papers to this day, where he said, “Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying”. Science fiction writers aren’t the only people to ponder whether or not there is life on other planets.
