Bruce Springsteen: Born to Run | Season 4: Ep. 6

The Rock Star Autobiography Podcast

Bruce Springsteen is a polarizing figure. His fans are die-hard, and they even famously refer to him as The Boss. Critics revere him, extolling him as the working man's poet. And of course, "You've just got to see him live." Other people, however, write actual lists on the internet about why they "hate" him (Reason Number 6: the earring). But you can't polarize people unless you've made it big, folks, and he did just that in the 80s when he announced that he was Born in The United States of America! That bandana! The jeans! The oiled muscles! Courtney Cox! But was the blue-collar Jersey boy born to write? Does his prose have the human touch? Find out as our hosts head through Bruce's tunnel of love and get a bad desire.
