Latest Episode 2024 Tour, Cleveland


John Lennon is a character played by Mike Hanford who has appeared on the podcast as well as the TV show. He died in 1980 but decided to come back to life in 1984. He doesn't mind if people know he's alive, but they're not allowed to tell anyone about it. He's not exactly hiding from Yoko, but he has a beret of hers that he likes and he doesn't want to give it back. His catchphrase is "drums."

Ringo is his favorite Beatle and best friend. They like to drive around the country together in his Winnebago.

He is the host of the podcast Questions for Lennon.
