From KCRW, I'm Kim Masters, and this is The Business.

And so I said, well, all right, let's go to Eddie Vedder.

And I wrote him this list, and it may as well have been writing a list to Santa Claus.

You know, like, it was, dear Eddie.

You don't know me.

Yeah, you don't know me, but I have Beatles TV show.

Please be in show. For his Netflix kids' show, Beat Bugs, Josh Wakely, a writer from Australia with no-name recognition in Hollywood, worked a miracle.

He got the rights to use Beatles music in the series.

Next, he had to find artists to perform covers of the songs.

Never Afraid of Going Big, Wakely now has a new animated show on Netflix, Motown Magic,

where a group of kids solves problems to the tune of another set of iconic songs.

For this one, he got Smokey Robinson on board to supervise the music.

Wakely tells us about his years-long quest for these seemingly ungetable rights, and he's not

stopping with the Beatles in Motown.

Next up is a scripted series for adults based on the music of Bob Dylan.

Yep, he got those rights too.

But first on the news banter, still more to see at CBS, and it ain't pretty.

Stick around, it's the business from KCRW.

Hi, I'm Jim. business from KCRW. I am joined by my buddy in banter.

Matt Bellany, the Hollywood reporter.

Hello, Matt.

Hi there.
