The energy he still has is unbelievable! And the willingness to be available for stuff like this still--after years and years of it. You gotta give it to him.
Not when you eat right and keep animals off of your plate. We can thrive without them and he along with Ringo are proof of that. Both don't eat animals.
@@onebraveheartlion Hey, I admire ANYONE who can go vegetarian. I don't think I can do it, since I like turkey sandwiches too much. But I try to avoid other meant most of the time.
@onebraveheartlion right, two people out of billions who are vegetarians living into their 80's really proves something. The majority of people over 100 eat a diet of meat and plant products. Please keep your stupidity to yourself.
@@onebraveheartliontwo people living in their 80s and being vegetarians hardly proves anything. You have no reason to believe they wouldn't be just as healthy and just as old as they are now if they were eating meat.
cannot imagine how you muster the courage to talk to a literal living legend and not be nervous. kudos to dana and david. paul literally changed and inspired the world with his music.
Nice. To me, it shows Spade's character and ability. Could hang with Farley in the realest of ways, put up with the rampant cynicism of those SNL super-selfimportant days... And in the presence of greatness, drops a 'Quite' like an american punk. Solid stuff.
It's not even close, this is by far and away the best McCartney interview ever, you guys managed to do something that nobody else has been able to do, you completely opened him up like everyone else has said, well done!!!!!!!
I am a fan of Dana and David and to hear the excitement in their voices talking with Paul is very charming. I do wonder how Paul can keep such a level head with so many people acting this way.
Hearing Spade laughing to some of the stories he's already told like the Elvis meeting but hearing Spade laughing so organically and also adding in a little bit of the celebrity because they understand what it's like to be a bit in Paul's shoes, this is a wonderful wonderful show, it makes Paul's stories somehow more genuine and they come alive more and you can see how comfortable he is with them, they need to do this a lot more often, Spade and Carvey need to do this with everyone, they are really really good!!
Jeebus crumble, Dana, let Paul finish his sentences! Paul was super gracious in this in this interview. I understand and share Dana's enthusiasm, but holy Chris Farley skit! Let the man talk!
Paul is such a kind lad, I always think his dad in particular must have an eternal smile on his face somewhere in the universe loving the music his son continues to emit & glow.
Yeah yeah yeah!..... 'a little turd'? Oh what he's in his 80s and not nice to the millions of people who try to talk to him! He's got the patience of a saint!! I love the fact behind the smiles he's a badass and don't take shit! Whilst being the greatest songwriter the world has ever had with Bob Dylan
. If music school's aren't already developing courses to study it, they should be! Just crazy to think of all those hours of film footage "rescued" by Peter Jackson, and how INCREDIBLY lucky we are to have this GOLDMINE of visual history of this seminal band in their prime available to us!! LOVE that Jackson is pressing them to release the additional HOURS of finished footage he ended up delivering, but HORRIFIED to hear that they may not end up doing so !! 😨 .
Wow, fascinating....! Do you like apples or oranges....?? You sound so interesting....!! How many times again....?? 5 whole times....??? Wow....!! Thanks so much....!! Let us all know if you go to 6....!!!!
I loved how giddy Dana got asking Paul any question. The questions about the bass and how the music came together was a great insight to his artistry, loved how he compared it to comedy/acting. It was truly was a fan interview with reciprocal love.
Awesome. I was young when my father died. I instantly was comforted by the Beatles music by chance of a radio show the night of his funeral. The Beatles, especially Uncle Paul, practically, with help from mom, raised me. I went into the band at school, learned sax, trumpet, and such, then after school I grabbed a guitar, and a Beatles chord chart book, and now I have a few guitars and a Hofner bass hanging on my wall and play EVERYDAY. I listen to the Beatles EVERYDAY, it has now been 42 years that find myself all walrussy and BECAUSE of the lads, IN MY LIFE, ALL MY LOVING and my RUBBER SOUL has been a lane of pennies, and fields of strawberries. Too bad the influenced never had the same amount of talent as those 4. TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS, however, I douby anyone will ever be that in tune with the human element as those simple guys along the Mersey.
music is almost mathematical and should be symmetrical ( at least in the 50s-90s) So there were usually 4 lines to a verse, 3 or 4 lines for chorus, and 2 lines for a middle bit. A solo, and overdubs, harmonies come later Advertisers gave limits to song lengths, so 2=3.5 minutes was just the standard for songwriting. That structure was a great scaffold for Lennon and McCartney to build their early chops on. Later, when they became the medium, they pressed the limits over the money lords to stretch songs to 4, 5, 7 minutes long or more. Plus they expanded that scaffold, adding interesting twists and turns that would amaze the world.
I had the honor of sitting and chatting with Ray Davies from The Kinks awhile back and he told me when all the bands in London heard that the Beatles were moving there from Liverpool they were terrified. I asked 'Why? did you think they were going to take all your gigs?" He said "No! We thought they were going to beat us all up!"
Superb session. Paul can play the favorites and snow the best of them under, but this was fresh. Dana and David played their part and brought out the best. Paul responded to your recognition of the collaborative process in action in the Get Back scenes and it really brought out his sincerity. Opening up about letting himself off the hook for the fabled breakup of the Beatles was astounding. Finally, remembering Farley and the iconic sketch that everyone who has subsequently interviewed Sir Paul knows they sound like in their head! I had to listen through from the needle drop, you had me glued to my spot for the duration.
Hi Guys Listening from Australia 🇦🇺( I’m English 🏴though ) Love the podcast & great interview Paul McCartney is a legend 👍 The Beatles are the greatest band that ever was , is and will be
This episode was very special. I guess I’m the fly on the wall this time. To have the chance to listen to three people who I have never met, but who I think I know, was really fun. Three people talking about things and events that I am quite aware of and yet only as a distant observer. During this conversation it feels like I’m a silent friend listening to my buddies talk about the past. It was really fun! Dana and David are really terrific hosts. They make you laugh, but they ask good questions and they provide a friendly fun atmosphere. I really like this show.
I know you've only been doing this podcast for 10 months or so, but it's going to be hard to top this one, fellas. Dana, you're such a Beatles geek and that's what takes this interview to another level. "Get Back" was just life changing and it's great to hear his take. As I watched, I also thought of Yoko seeing her and John, along with Paul seeing him and Linda, and missing that relationship they had. A mixed feeling of gratefulness and sorrow. I think I'll be listening to this again - a true treasure. Thank you.
Holy cow! Paul McCartney replied! How awesome is this! This is the coolest thing I've ever seen for someone to take time out of their busy schedules to recognize their fans. How awesome!
Really enjoyed this. Dana and David did a great job interviewing Paul who is charming and just a regular guy. I came of age musically with Paul in 1967. First two albums we obtained were "Sgt Pepper" and "The Doors."
About being the bass player in The Beatles: "I never wanted that job. Bass player was the worst job in the group, it is always the fat guy" ROTFL. Paul is so funny.
Enjoyed the chat, thanks for making your schedules and situations work to fit Sir McCartney in, I know I’d drop everything if I had a chance to chat with Paul McCartney, even if it was just for a minute. And that would definitely result in some version of the Farley sketch.
Such a full life with stories behind the story. With a brief touch on Wings, would love to get the background on creativity, Linda and the band. Thank you for bringing Paul to the rest of us. Bring him back.. he'd return.
@@scottgunvaldsonmusic4116 well..unfortunately he statistically is..im sure you have someone you like better...lining Paul's hits up back to back...he'd be on the charts 35 consecutive years without missing a month...so whatever genius choice you have...id say NO
I cannot appreciate the time I spent to listen to this. This is truly a gift for anyone that made the Beatles and SNL part of their youth. It's such a regular conversation. So casual, so normal. God bless! Dana having that signed autograph .....ugh man what a treasure.
Let’s be honest here everyone. I can’t be the only one who at times was going “wait a minute, is this just Dana doing an impression the whole time…”. Great interview guys. I’m so glad you are doing this podcast!
28:40 I love it when Paul brings up his bass influences. I always hear him in Paul’s playing and I’m so glad every time Mr. McCartney brings him up… he’s a legend!
Considering this is probably the 5,500,000th interview he has done in his lifetime I am amazed he doesn’t seem jaded and doesn’t just phone it in. Good on you Sir.
Great podcast, you guys elicited a lot of material that has never been brought out from McCartney including the base playing, cutting edge stuff, great work David Spade and Dana carvey
Sir Paul is one of my biggest influences on bass. The hassle is, the more I play his music and the more I write basslines (with 35 years experience), the more I realize I will never be even half as good.
I love Paul, he’s a great interviewee. This is my favorite podcast but have to say the interview is not an easy listen with Spade sounding like Beavis and Dana talking about himself nonstop - let it breath boys!
I disagree completely. When I was ready for a change of conversation David led the way. And people who listen are fans of Dana, David and SNL.. we WANT to hear from the too.
@Dan Buell I agree. I felt frustrated by all the times Dana cut him off, went off on tangents about himself, etc., and David’s inappropriate laughter was pretty weird. Paul was very patient, but geez. At least David acknowledged it at the end.
I love that the interview reaches the point where both Spade & Carvey are badly singing Beatles songs back to Paul! Only wish could have seen his face at that point
Such an amazing interview! Love these 3 hanging out!! Oh wow only 2k likes on this video, was uploaded 10 months ago. People must not know about this yet.
I love how it took dana and david a little while to settle down into a good interview. So relatable! I love how at one point it seems like dana may do both parts of the interview, dana and paul, as paul listens haha! And yes i think paul knows how “live and let die” goes guys hahha. Love this podcast!
I'm so happy to hear Paul actually talking about one of the things that I love the most about The Beatles, that none of their songs sounded the same, and that is especially true of the white album, which ties with 'The Golden Age of Wireless' by Thomas Dolby for my favorite album of all time. That's how I approach making my own albums, but this kind of variety seems to scare off most listeners. It's extremely impressive that the Beatles somehow managed to overcome that bias with the white album.
Thanks for mentioning Dolby. I know his name only from the Toys (1992 movie) soundtrack and always loved The Mirror Song, which has been on rotation in my life since 1992/93 (bought the soundtrack as a kid). But his name was always a mystery to me. Never occurred to me that the Internet has since been created and I could've looked him up all this time! Will check out that album asap.
@@EmpyreanLightASMR Thomas Dolby's first two solo albums are extraordinary. His work from that period and earlier, solo and with with others, is genius. His work after that is extremely disappointing.
@@EmpyreanLightASMR actually that's a very common career trajectory with recording artists, I'm afraid. I've seen it countless times in my adult life as both a listener and lover of great music, and a composer and musician myself. His work became increasingly commercial, much less personal and emotionally connected, and uninspired and unimaginative. He used to conjure worlds and make you cry with his incredible command of synthesizer performance technique. His synthesizer work on 'Waiting for a Girl Like You' by Foreigner is legendary, and truly the stuff of gods and magic. After this he moved to California, shed his Englishness in favor of whatever the hell glitz and glam he thought he might find in Los Angeles, and made ring tones and gave TED Talks. It's hard to believe it's the same person.
54:20 that's why I love the Anthology series, three double disc albums with alternate tracks or takes or just pure inspiration walking in before it's polished out and all of them would have been just as big of a hit as the master
The Anthology series gave the Beatles another 50 years of extreme relevancy and massive sales. I was 17 when that series, and while a casual BEATLES fan and big McCartney fan (Hope and Deliverance had come out in 1993) but ANTHOLOGY took it to another level. I got the Blue album and then went into the whole catalog by spring ‘96!
My Favorite Musician of ALL TIME. Saw him in 2016. 3 1/2 hrs. I was exhausted, never mind Paul. He was 73 years old then. Greatest show I've ever seen.
These are wonderful it’s nice and long and I feel like I got to sit and hang out with your guests . Plus you ask questions about things I don’t always know about so the answers are very interesting .. I love to hear you all laughing at the funny parts . I’m 55 so the Beatles have been the soundtrack to my life .. only one other appearance on James Corden car pool kareokee made me feel like I got to know this amazing human more ! Thank you so much for this podcast !
Thanks Dana and David for this great Paul interview. I was 11 when The Lads played on Ed Sullivan Feb 9, 1964. I was hooked and the next day at school everybody was talking about The Beatles even the Teachers. I did meet Paul, George and Ringo in London 1973. John was in the states. I did not see The Beatles in concert but I did see them as solo Beatles. I did share this podcast to my Beatles group. beatlespeatlesfans1964. Thank you.
40:36 "That spirit was always there - from the minute I met John - till the minute The Beatles broke up... and beyond actually, ya know. There was always that sort of... we're just two guys goofin' are way through the world."
Wait, wtf? That’s the skill Dana has in negative qualities. If you were to name the person to demonstrate it worst, it’s Dana, but at least David tries. Dana says he sucks at that, then steamrolls over the guest and hijacks every single interview. Ironically, often with his very tired impersonation of Paul.
This showed Paul's emotional maturity to be supreme. Forgive this from-the-hip comment because it's stated with positive intent: I found it a tad frustrating when you talked over him so often. He is a living historical genius, without doubt, and oozes humility and comic flair. In saying that, it's fully understood that this was an interview of a lifetime with the ultimate musical hero, so it must have been extremely difficult to manage your excitement.
Remember when you were in the Beatles? That was awesome. David is as giddy as a schoolgirl... ha, I would be, too. The 30:00 mark where they're discussing the personal pronouns in Beatles songwriting. Gear!
How does it feel to know that people studying Paul 200 years from now will spend time listening to this interview? You got to put down an interview with freaking Mozart for historical record.
i'm glad dave brought up chris' sketch... remember when you guys interviews paul mccartney and totally fanboyed on him for an hour? ...that was awesome.
I listened to the Beatles the first time in 1964 on WLS Radio in my home in small town Indiana. I was 12. Much later in life in 2018 I was in Liverpool and spent t time at the Cavern. I wonder if Paul has been back to plY?
♥ Paul is a gift to this world, so glad he is still happy enough to share his life's moments with us all. Sometimes I wonder if he really knows how deeply his/their music and contributions, have affected the entire world... either way, we thank him from our hearts forever, endlessly♥♥♥♥♥♥♥and, you guys are f'n great and funny, and dug this first time listening to your show, miss your show David, so just subscribed👍
The energy he still has is unbelievable! And the willingness to be available for stuff like this still--after years and years of it.
You gotta give it to him.

Paul has brought the world so much joy, he makes this world a little brighter place to live. It's awesome he's still active
Two of us alone has brought so much happiness to me
Your life must be so empty if an overrated celebrity who will never ever ever ever know or care an iota about you, fills your void....!!??
cannot imagine how you muster the courage to talk to a literal living legend and not be nervous. kudos to dana and david. paul literally changed and inspired the world with his music.
Er, you mean the Tavistock Institute team, including George Martin, who wrote all the songs....
You guys really got McCartney to open up, to remember and to share so much we had never heard before.
This was truly wonderful!
Well done.
McCartney: “We were quite popular in the beginning there.”
Spade: “Quite.”
Nice. To me, it shows Spade's character and ability. Could hang with Farley in the realest of ways, put up with the rampant cynicism of those SNL super-selfimportant days... And in the presence of greatness, drops a 'Quite' like an american punk. Solid stuff.
Paul's voice is very calming to listen to.
This is like a real life version of the Farley interview sketch.
I wrote that near the beginning before Spade mentions it near the end.
Exactly! Remember when…lol
Farley didn't interrupt as much as Carvey does but it's still great
Farley did more research.
Let McCartney talk!!!
It's not even close, this is by far and away the best McCartney interview ever, you guys managed to do something that nobody else has been able to do, you completely opened him up like everyone else has said, well done!!!!!!!

I've heard a ton of Paul interviews... this was by far the best. Had tears as you guys concluded...
Paul is such a kind lad, I always think his dad in particular must have an eternal smile on his face somewhere in the universe loving the music his son continues to emit & glow.
I've heard he's been a little turd. But who knows
Yeah yeah yeah!..... 'a little turd'? Oh what he's in his 80s and not nice to the millions of people who try to talk to him! He's got the patience of a saint!! I love the fact behind the smiles he's a badass and don't take shit! Whilst being the greatest songwriter the world has ever had with Bob Dylan
That’s a nice thought.

Very well done, guys! A great conversation and some deep cuts...
So, so glad they mention the Chris Farley sketch
I'm so happy to hear Paul actually talking about one of the things that I love the most about The Beatles, that none of their songs sounded the same, and that is especially true of the white album, which ties with 'The Golden Age of Wireless' by Thomas Dolby for my favorite album of all time. That's how I approach making my own albums, but this kind of variety seems to scare off most listeners. It's extremely impressive that the Beatles somehow managed to overcome that bias with the white album.
Thanks for mentioning Dolby. I know his name only from the Toys (1992 movie) soundtrack and always loved The Mirror Song, which has been on rotation in my life since 1992/93 (bought the soundtrack as a kid). But his name was always a mystery to me. Never occurred to me that the Internet has since been created and I could've looked him up all this time! Will check out that album asap.
@@EmpyreanLightASMR Thomas Dolby's first two solo albums are extraordinary. His work from that period and earlier, solo and with with others, is genius. His work after that is extremely disappointing.
@@singlesideman Interesting, surprising to hear. But thank you, I'll check out the earlier stuff first.
@@EmpyreanLightASMR actually that's a very common career trajectory with recording artists, I'm afraid. I've seen it countless times in my adult life as both a listener and lover of great music, and a composer and musician myself. His work became increasingly commercial, much less personal and emotionally connected, and uninspired and unimaginative. He used to conjure worlds and make you cry with his incredible command of synthesizer performance technique. His synthesizer work on 'Waiting for a Girl Like You' by Foreigner is legendary, and truly the stuff of gods and magic. After this he moved to California, shed his Englishness in favor of whatever the hell glitz and glam he thought he might find in Los Angeles, and made ring tones and gave TED Talks. It's hard to believe it's the same person.
54:20 that's why I love the Anthology series, three double disc albums with alternate tracks or takes or just pure inspiration walking in before it's polished out and all of them would have been just as big of a hit as the master
The Anthology series gave the Beatles another 50 years of extreme relevancy and massive sales.
I was 17 when that series, and while a casual BEATLES fan and big McCartney fan (Hope and Deliverance had come out in 1993) but ANTHOLOGY took it to another level.
I got the Blue album and then went into the whole catalog by spring ‘96!
My Favorite Musician of ALL TIME. Saw him in 2016. 3 1/2 hrs. I was exhausted, never mind Paul. He was 73 years old then. Greatest show I've ever seen.
Listened to every podcast so far. This was my fav along with Lovitz . Wanted so bad for there to be video to see Paul’s digs.
Oh god Dennis Miller at the beginning. And then a bit of “RINGY-DOO” with Macca!
Amazing artist and uderrated god of rock... his solo stuff should be on the Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums List for sure.
These are wonderful it’s nice and long and I feel like I got to sit and hang out with your guests . Plus you ask questions about things I don’t always know about so the answers are very interesting .. I love to hear you all laughing at the funny parts . I’m 55 so the Beatles have been the soundtrack to my life .. only one other appearance on James Corden car pool kareokee made me feel like I got to know this amazing human more ! Thank you so much for this podcast !
😊😊😊😊
omg that all made me wanna cry!
Thanks Dana and David for this great Paul interview. I was 11 when The Lads played on Ed Sullivan Feb 9, 1964. I was hooked and the next day at school everybody was talking about The Beatles even the Teachers. I did meet Paul, George and Ringo in London 1973. John was in the states. I did not see The Beatles in concert but I did see them as solo Beatles. I did share this podcast to my Beatles group. beatlespeatlesfans1964. Thank you.
40:36 "That spirit was always there - from the minute I met John - till the minute The Beatles broke up... and beyond actually, ya know. There was always that sort of... we're just two guys goofin' are way through the world."
Great stuff.. Love Paul. An underrated skill of interviewers is to let the guests talk and not compete for air time. Well done guys.
Wait, wtf? That’s the skill Dana has in negative qualities. If you were to name the person to demonstrate it worst, it’s Dana, but at least David tries. Dana says he sucks at that, then steamrolls over the guest and hijacks every single interview. Ironically, often with his very tired impersonation of Paul.
Thank's for the inspiration. I'll try to be more creative with my life after listening to all three of you artists.
I love how Dana Carvey would impersonate Paul McCartney and the other Beatles during the interview. Funny!
I thought I was the only one lol
Thanks you❤
@@paulmccartney8408 thank YOU! If this is the real Paul McCartney, you just made my life by replying to my comment.
@@marif936 hahahah,best believe…..I am glad I did❤️
@@paulmccartney8408 faker! have a nice day.
Not sure if Paul noticed...he did not say anything about that!
This showed Paul's emotional maturity to be supreme. Forgive this from-the-hip comment because it's stated with positive intent: I found it a tad frustrating when you talked over him so often.
He is a living historical genius, without doubt, and oozes humility and comic flair. In saying that, it's fully understood that this was an interview of a lifetime with the ultimate musical hero, so it must have been extremely difficult to manage your excitement.
They're literally friends IRL dude. Quit deifying celebrities.
Remember when you were in the Beatles? That was awesome.
David is as giddy as a schoolgirl... ha, I would be, too.
The 30:00 mark where they're discussing the personal pronouns in Beatles songwriting.
Gear!
Paul looks good here with his gray. It’s more natural.
Y’all got one of the best interviews out of PauI’ve ever heard and it’s probably because David is so smart
I thoroughly enjoyed this, thanks to all three of you!
Love how Paul gradually opened up more and relaxed as the interview went on
Two of my favorite stand-ups. Why I haven't heard about this schmodcast baffles me.
How does it feel to know that people studying Paul 200 years from now will spend time listening to this interview? You got to put down an interview with freaking Mozart for historical record.
Dana should make a list of 69 questions for Dana Carvey and record himself asking and answering them, at length.
i'm glad dave brought up chris' sketch... remember when you guys interviews paul mccartney and totally fanboyed on him for an hour? ...that was awesome.
I listened to the Beatles the first time in 1964 on WLS Radio in my home in small town Indiana. I was 12. Much later in life in 2018 I was in Liverpool and spent t time at the Cavern. I wonder if Paul has been back to plY?
Guys, it would be good to have video along with these audio casts.
He never wanted to play bass. Then he became one of the few bass players to actually change the course of the instrument.
One of my faves..Carol Kaye, Jim Jamerson, Paul.. very melodic and creative.
Day in the life is the most inventive cathartic studio single ever made
♥ Paul is a gift to this world, so glad he is still happy enough to share his life's moments with us all. Sometimes I wonder if he really knows how deeply his/their music and contributions, have affected the entire world... either way, we thank him from our hearts forever, endlessly♥♥♥♥♥♥♥and, you guys are f'n great and funny, and dug this first time listening to your show, miss your show David, so just subscribed👍
I could listen to 8 hours of this...
Hey Paul, David, & Dana... I can't wait until I'm able to hang out with you fun guys again.
Much love - TakeXare 💋
Hahahah,maybe soon
Thank you ❤
