What's up, guys? How are you? How about that? The Howard brothers. This is pretty damn good.

Welcome to literally with me.

The great Ron Howard and his brother Clint Howard, who have written a spectacular book about their childhood.

They're my guest.

Ron Howard, I mean, should be on the Mount Rushmore of show business, from being one of the great child actors on Andy Griffith's show to Happy Days, Richie Cunningham, and then directing everything from Da Vinci Code, Apollo 13, Backdraft, Parenthood, Splash, I mean, Frost Nixon, cocoon, Willow.

I mean, it goes on and on and on,

creating one of the great production companies

with Brian Grazer called Imagine.

And, you know, Clint having just such an amazing life

with gentle Ben when he was like eight years old.

Anyway, I could not be more excited to dig in

with these two guys who I've known peripherally

for many, many, many years.

So stand by. Ron Howard, Clint Howard.

First of all, the book is great. I read it in one sitting.

Oh, thank you. Thank you. It's great to talk to you and see you via Zoom. And it's fun to be the

Howard Brothers. I mean, it always has been. And part of the, part of the excitement of writing the book

was actually that we knew there was going to be this little period of time where we'd be sort of

forced to be together and hang and talk. So here we are.

I mean, you know, next thing is I think you guys have to have a band.

You know, like if it's good enough for the Bacon Brothers,

why isn't it good enough for the Howard brothers?
