Helter Skelter is one of the most controversial and polarizing Beatles songs. But whether you love it or hate it, you might not realize it contains a whole assortment of wild and unexpected anomalies.

In this episode, we'll breakdown the fascinating recording history of Paul McCartney's wildest contribution to 1968's White Album. We'll also explore a mystery that fans have debated for years: who is really playing bass, John Lennon or Paul McCartney?

As a fair warning: you can't unhear this.
