John Lennon didn’t stray away from controversial topics, activism, and noteworthy statements. When it comes to late-night talk shows, the Beatles member said there shouldn’t be “any limits at all” regarding hot topics.

The Beatles’ Lennon didn’t stray away from activism and hot topics. The rock band released “Get Back” as commentary on anti-immigration rhetoric in England. While performing in front of the Royal Family, Lennon joked that instead of cheering, they should “just rattle [their] jewelry.”

As a solo artist, Lennon debuted “Give Peace a Chance” and “Happy Xmas (War is Over.)” He also appeared in his honeymoon “Bed-In for Peace” alongside Yoko Ono.

Lennon appeared in interviews with the Beatles and as a solo artist. In 1966, the songwriter was asked about “hot” conversations on talk shows.

“I don’t think there should be any limits at all,” Lennon said (via Beatles Interviews). “That is why they should put late-night shows on at two o’clock in the morning. That way people wouldn’t have to watch it and say how disgusting so-and-so’s behavior was.”
