Over the course of a week in 1972, John Lennon and Yoko Ono took over as temporary hosts of the daytime talk show, The Mike Douglas Show. A new documentary called Daytime Revolution captures when two of the best known artists in the world became TV hosts. The guests were personally chosen by John and Yoko, with some incredible music performances mixed in. The film was directed by Erik Nelson, and opens in theaters on October 9, which would have been Lennon’s 84th birthday.

“Daytime Revolution takes us back in time, as we observe John and Yoko interacting with a transfixed studio audience in revealing Q and A sessions where John Lennon was astonishingly candid about his life after the Beatles,” reads the film’s press release. “John and Yoko also got to pick the guests, some very controversial at the time, like Jerry Rubin and Black Panther Bobby Seale, as well as Ralph Nader and George Carlin. In addition, the shows featured blazing musical performances, including an epic duet with Chuck Berry, and a poignant rendition of the now classic ‘Imagine.’” (Ultimate Classic Rock)
