Summary

What happens when a song is designed not to be solved? In this episode of Within the Donut Hole, we turn our attention to “Glass Onion,” the Beatles’ sly, self-referential puzzle box of a song. One that invites interpretation while quietly reminding us that the center may be an illusion. We’re joined by renowned Beatles expert Chris Wood, whose lifelong devotion to the band includes a full-on Beatles wedding, performing in a string-backed cover band, and dressing as Sgt. Pepper–era Paul McCartney at an actual Paul McCartney concert. Together, we explore “Glass Onion” as both a commentary on Beatles mythology and a playful warning against over-analysis, peeling back layers that may, or may not, exist at all. Is “Glass Onion” a riddle…or a joke on all of us?
