#193: John Lennon: The "Lost Weekend"

Few people have had a more profound influence on pop culture and music than John Lennon. With Paul McCartney, he's one half of arguably the greatest songwriting partnership of all time. With the Beatles, he claimed to be "more popular than Jesus." He was one of the most famous anti-war advocates of his time, and his solo career spawned such time-tested hits that the merest mention of the word "imagine" is likely to make that song play in your head. In the summer of 1973, John Lennon's marriage with Yoko Ono was in trouble. They were reeling from the commercial and critical disappointment of Lennon's Ono-produced Some Time in New York City, and Ono had said that the constant hate their union drew was slowly ruining their careers and her vibes. Ono wanted a break from the whole "she broke up the Beatles" narrative, and she needed one from Lennon, too. Her solution? She set Lennon up with a mistress. This period in Lennon's has become known as "The Lost Weekend." Hire Me To Use My Voice InYour Next Video/Project ► The "Remember This" Podcast is sponsored by Gift Shop For Guys.
