Welcome to the Nidal better better show and your host Paul Volzine.

Well just when you thought you knew everything there was to know about the Beatles,

Ron Howard has uncovered new things about the Fab 4 for the upcoming documentary The Beatles eight days a week the

touring years it's this ensemble tale of these young guys they're boys at the beginning

their men at the end and they've been through an amazing journey.

The film traces John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr from 1962 to 1966 during the years that they became a phenomenon.

Ron Howard was a kid at the time playing Opie on the Andy Griffith show and he, like everyone else in our not old better audience, found

himself swept up in Beatlemania.

Howard watched as the Beatles debuted on Ed Sullivan, toured the U.S. and eventually

decided touring wasn't what the band wanted to do.

We caught up with Howard in two interviews across a couple of time zones when he talked to us about his new movie

Eight days a week the touring years from the Beatles

We're with Ron Howard. Ron Howard, of course, is the director of the new film, The Beatles documentary,

Eight Days A Week, featuring rare and never before seen footage from shows and

interviews lots of great material with Paul McCartney Ringo numerous others. I just have to say it is wonderful music,

it's great to see these guys all together. Tell us what your first memory is of the Beatles and where you saw them first.

When they performed first, I think it was on Ed Sullivan, I watched that.
