In My Life
It's another all-time classic to fall under the Stuffology microscope this episode with Lennon's mighty In My Life. Does the song deserve its reputation as one of his very best pieces of work? Do the rest of the band contribute equally? And just how many cover versions are there to be discussed?

I'm Looking Through You
It's another Bitchy McCartney Number (tm), of which we have had a few lately but how does "I'm Looking Through You" comare to the others? Is there a Wilburys-esque twist (pun very much intended) in the mix? And who's playing what, exactly?

Girl.
Time for a little Euro-jaunt? Why, I think it might be, as it's time for Girl to take the centre stage! Is it a metaphor around Catholic values? Can Lennon manage to land the genre style? And how funny can one set of backing vocals be?

What Goes On
It's Ringo's chance to take centre stage on Rubber Soul as What Goes On dolefully shuffles into view. Is this song as doleful as all the other doleful songs Ringo has sung? Is it worthy of inclusion in a list of doleful Ringo songs at all? And is there any other world to describe this song as other than doleful? Doleful.

Michelle
It's time for a little Gallic flair in podcastland as "Michelle" sashay's into view. How unusual is the song in the Beatles back catalogue? Do cover versions add anything at all? And how did our beloved podcast hosts (it says here) come to the song in the first place?
