    JKL and Set Lusting Bruce Crossover - Rush reviewed
    Jul 4 2026
    On a JKL Media Podcast one-off special, Lou introduces Canadian prog-rock/metal trio Rush and asks Karen and Jesse for reactions, starting with a yes/no on Geddy Lee’s voice (Karen yes, Jesse no). Lou frames Rush as a technically revered “musician’s band,” outlines the members’ roles, and compares their music to headphone-focused listening like Pink Floyd. Karen and Jesse discuss songs from Lou’s list—both like “The Spirit of Radio,” Karen names “Tom Sawyer” as her favorite and relates to “Subdivisions,” while Jesse says many tracks sound similar but appreciates the lyrics and openness to the experience. They praise the 2010 documentary for its celebrity supporters and for revealing the band’s low-drama, nerdy camaraderie, highlighting Alex Lifeson’s humor and Neil Peart’s tragedy and return to music, and they note interest in a needed “chapter two” and the band’s later-era touring and new drummer Anika Nilles. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 00:39 Geddy Voice Debate 01:23 Rush Primer 03:04 Song List Reactions 04:03 Rush Recognition Talk 07:56 Karen Favorites 10:22 Documentary Overview 11:53 Karen Doc Impressions 15:14 Jesse Doc Takeaways 18:36 Toronto Roots and Memories 20:04 Rick Moranis Connection 20:55 Neil Peart Tragedy 21:26 Band Reunites Again 21:43 Neil Peart Cancer Secret 22:50 Annika Nilles Joins Tour 24:48 Why Rush Endures 26:48 Comedy And Early Memories 29:10 Musicianship Deep Dive 32:09 Low Drama Band Culture 34:25 Canada Love And Fandom 37:33 Live Videos And Wrap Up 40:13 Where To Find Everyone Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Phil Mastrean says that "Springsteen is a greedy pig"

    Phil Mastrean says that "Springsteen is a greedy pig"
    Jul 2 2026
    Phil Mastroianni Mastrean from Pittsburgh is not happy with the 2026 Land of Hope and Dreams Springsteen tour. We get into Phil’s musical roots, first Bruce show in 1984, and a fandom spanning roughly 220 concerts, with favorites like “Backstreets,” “Darkness on the Edge of Town,” and “Born to Run.” The conversation turns to why Phil is skipping the current tour: he believes it was announced as politically motivated, feels high ticket prices clash with that message, and sees the shows as focused on criticizing the current administration, which he views as inconsistent and alienating to fans. Jesse emphasizes community, respectful disagreement, and his own experience of the shows as hopeful rather than purely political. 01:28 Meet Phil From Pittsburgh 02:01 Steelers Cowboys Banter 03:39 Early Music And Bruce Discovery 05:21 First Show Hooked 06:52 Community And Show Magic 09:17 Favorite Songs And Travel 10:52 Why This Tour Feels Different 14:15 Politics And Ticket Prices 17:14 Backlash And Fan Fallout 21:15 Still Listening Or Taking A Break 25:12 Divorce Papers Filed 26:48 Bruce Impact On Life 27:20 Fandom Fallout Debate 30:36 Platform And Legacy 32:43 Finding Common Ground 35:58 Songs Still Chasing 38:00 Songs That Evolve 43:41 Western Stars Live Wish 45:27 Farewell And Kindness Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Ernest Lineberger on Running for Congress, Faith, and Finding Hope (B-Side Episode)

    Ernest Lineberger on Running for Congress, Faith, and Finding Hope (B-Side Episode)
    Jul 1 2026
    Host Jesse Jackson steps outside the Springsteen universe for a B-side conversation with Ernest Lineberger, a retired Naval officer and former Texas Instruments supervisor/industrial engineer who ran for Congress in a tough Texas district, lost the 2024 general election, then continued organizing town halls, protests, and outreach before losing a subsequent primary. Lineberger discusses why voters change their minds, the need for better-informed civic engagement, and frustration with politics as a “team sport,” including concerns about executive overreach, tariffs, and billionaire influence. He shares a childhood shaped by frequent moves, time in Italy and Monterey, and his Navy chaplain father’s strong influence on his Christian beliefs and inclusivity. Now fully retired, he’s supporting candidates like Vicki Goodwin, planning reunions, and promoting his memoir, There I Was. The episode closes with the show’s “Thunder Road” Mary question. 00:00 B-Side Detour Intro 00:49 Meet Ernest Lineberger 02:30 Navy Career and TI 03:59 Why I Ran for Congress 06:26 Campaign Grind and Primary Loss 08:10 Texas Democrats Outlook 09:57 Representation and Fairness 11:20 Changing Minds in Politics 17:00 Early Music and Moving Abroad 19:56 Monterey High School Years 23:20 Faith and Community Values 26:35 Military Base Upbringing 27:29 Politeness and Listening 29:23 Why Veterans Matter 33:38 Getting Informed to Vote 36:07 Common Ground and Cynicism 38:58 Springsteen and Hope 41:27 America Abroad and Trust 43:38 Life After Campaigning 44:04 Book Stories and Motivation 47:18 Service and Gratitude 50:59 Thunder Road Mary Question 52:13 How to Reach Ernest 53:54 Podcast Wrap and Plugs Learn more about your ad choices.
