I'm with the band on the run.

I was stunned to see this on the list of podcasts today. Being an avid Beatles, and Paul fan I instantly clicked. Before I knew it I'm being shown little clips of the process of Band on the Run. Hearing Paul's narration, and I was so excited. I'm subscribing, and if you are a Paul fan, a Beatles fan, you'll appreciate this little four minute video and want to subscribe as well. I can't wait for more. These videos are really well put together and with Paul's voice, I sort of wanted to run away with him all over again.
