Paul McCartney on Making New Music, The Beatles and His Lasting Legacy

Author: Willie Geist, Sunday TODAY May 31, 2026 Duration: 31:57
Paul McCartney’s incredible career began more than 60 years ago when he formed The Beatles with John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Now, he’s out with his latest solo album "The Boys of Dungeon Lane". In this week's Sitdown, Willie Geist gets together with McCartney to talk about his new music, that includes a song with The Beatles members. And McCartney talks about performing in Stephen Colbert's final "The Late Show" which happened to be on the same stage the Beatles had their American debut in 1964.

Each week on Sunday Sitdown with Willie Geist, the familiar, thoughtful host of NBC's Sunday TODAY extends his signature interview style into a longer, more relaxed format. Here, you'll find the complete, unedited conversations that often have to be trimmed for television, allowing for a more nuanced and personal exploration of each guest's journey. Willie sits down with an impressive and eclectic mix of people who are actively defining our world, including leading actors, influential musicians, political figures, and transformative business leaders. The discussions move beyond simple career highlights to uncover the real stories behind their public successes-the pivotal moments, challenges, and ideas that truly shaped them. This podcast offers a unique blend of news and cultural commentary, delivered through the lens of intimate, one-on-one dialogue. It’s a chance to settle in and hear substantial, meaningful conversations that cut through the noise, providing depth and context to the headlines and cultural trends we all talk about. For anyone interested in the human experiences behind the names in the news, film, television, and society at large, this series feels like a weekly, in-depth masterclass conducted with genuine curiosity and insight.
