Pepper." The conversation touches on the Beatles' experimentation with LSD, their trip to Bangor with the Maharishi, and the death of their manager, Brian Epstein. They explore the making of "Magical Mystery Tour," the band's visit to the Maharishi's retreat in India, and the creation of the "White Album." The discussion moves to John Lennon's relationship with Yoko Ono, Paul McCartney's "Hey Jude," and the "Get Back" sessions, culminating in the rooftop concert and the "Abbey Road" album, reflecting on the band's breakup and their lasting legacy.
