Steven Hyden on Patio Music & Bruce Springsteen

After the Deluge

Steven Hyden is a writer and podcaster whose new book, There Was Nothing You Could Do, is out now. We talk about the Patio Hall of Fame, why he’s a terrible DJ, vinyl is for suckers, music hits different on the patio, Skynyrd vs. Neil Young, Steve picks the most patio-friendly Radiohead and Pearl Jam records, how he writes so damn much, small-town newspapers, a Mr. Miyagi analogy we can all learn from, “liking Nebraska but not Bruce Springsteen” is a whole type of guy (aka me), Jackson Browne (mark your Bingo card), LA vs. NY mindset, are politicians still playing Born in the USA?, early 90s vs late 90s, Shania Twain, heartland rock, and is Sublime good or do they stink?
