Consistent target of the Robertbenjamin UPE sock farm. Of the sources present in the article, 1 and 2 are brief mentions, and 3 is a book from a self-publishing source so is not reliable. While the name is relatively common, I did run searches with several permutations of words related to the Beatles and the name of the podcast to narrow it down, and still cannot find sufficient reference material about this subject to indicate notability.

- Those, I'm afraid, are by "Forbes contributors", and as such are generally considered self-published and not reliable. Also, two of them only briefly mention Rodriguez. I did run across those while searching, but they wouldn't help toward notability. Seraphimblade Talk to me 19:28, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Needs more to attain notability. Analysing the sources per WP:THREE, the first source [1] gave nothing except talking about the Beatles which the Chicago tribune [2] also analysed. The two sources were centered lessly on "his" podcast which did not pass WP:PODCAST. Most of the books were self published and per WP: AUTHOR, doesn't confer notability. The second source was from Google book link which is neither a reliable source but just a primary reference and the books also doesn't seem to cross WP: NBOOK. The sources were few and the subject isn't notable! All the Best! Otuọcha ( talk) 00:32, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete – WP:FORBESCON doesn't work, the Chicago Tribune article is direct quotes, a self-published book won't work, and the "The Beatles in Masculinity Study: Male Fandom Sustaining the Beatles' Success and Longevity" piece only cites work by this article's subject. WP:SIGCOV is the issue here. TLA tlak 14:24, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
