Hace cuarenta años Born in the USA convirtió a Bruce Springsteen en un ídolo pop, que peleaba los primeros lugares con figuras como Michael Jackson, Prince y Madonna.

For today's show, we have the pleasure of hanging out with Scott from Trulock Chokes. We kick off the show hearing about Scott's family business and how they got started in the outdoor industry. You'll quickly find that Scott is the real deal and knows a thing or two about hunting, fishing and especially, choke tubes. We get pretty deep with Scott in regards to how and why his chokes are unique, what he looks for in choke tubes, what he recommends for people to do when they get a new gun, etc. One of the most important things Scott suggests is to pattern the gun, choke and shell of choice at the rough distance you plan to shoot game. It sounds simple but ask yourself... have you done this recently? There's a ton of science that goes into making quality chokes for your guns and Trulock Chokes helps break it down on their youtube channel, which you can check out here. With thousands of variations of chokes, I'd bet there's something for you and your gun. It's worth looking into. Treat yourself.

Sermon Text:  Psalm 77; Matthew 8:1-4   In Week Two of Turntable, we turned to the grief of others.  "Born in the USA" is the dark story of a Vietnam veteran. The beauty of the song is the in the tension of the struggle in the verses and the triumph in the chorus. When we encounter people with grief, what can we offer? Jesus shows us the gift of dignity, that our grief and suffering does not have to define us.

Returning guest and friend of the show Giordano joins us as we wax patriotic discussing Bruce Springsteen's 1984 Born in the U.S.A. We pick apart Springsteen's ironic rock ballad memorializing a returning Vietnam veteran's blackpilling at the bleak events of his pre and post-war life and decide that the song is based and cool actually (we're media literacy experts). After all, what's more American than hating the government and fighting in pointless foreign wars? Thanks for the song and your opinions on it Mr. The Boss, but we'll take it from here.

The 4th of July weekend provides a perfect time to revisit our fabulous conversation with Roger Bennett. The witty and telented co-host of "Men in Blazers" was raised in Liverpool with affection for all things American, and eventually became a U.S. citizen. That journey is chronicled in his book "Reborn in the USA".

This is Play That Rock 'n Roll's retrospective on Bruce Springsteen's iconic hit song, "BORN IN THE USA". In this special episode, we dive deep into the meaning behind the lyrics in the song, how the song has been misappropriated over the years, it's tenuous connection to the RAMBO film series, and whether or not it's right to describe the song as "patriotic". We also discuss several misconceptions about the Vietnam War, including what started the popular conspiracy theory about American POW's being held in Vietnam after the war had ended. To give further insight into some of the topics covered, I have included clips from my conversations with Ryan White (author of "SPRINGSTEEN: ALBUM BY ALBUM") and Jesse Jackson (host of SET LUSTING BRUCE: A Bruce Springsteen Fan Podcast).

By 1984, Bruce Springsteen had long been hailed by rock critics as the next great American bard for the working man. His ability to mix heavy lyrics about the struggles of everyday life with catchy pop/rock rhythms had elevated him to rock royalty status before he ever made his 7th album. Released June 4, 1984 as a follow up to the melancholy and personal Nebraska, Born in the USA reunited Bruce with the E. Street Band and The Boss brought 70 songs for the gang to work into what would become the biggest selling album of 1985. The result was a record that sold over 30 million copies worldwide, contained 7 top 10 singles in the US and won Springsteen his first grammy (Dancing in the Dark). While many of the tracks on the album can boast big sing-along choruses (Working On The Highway, Glory Days, Born in the USA), the subject matter of the song may not always be the kind you shout and pump your fist to. Bruce can take a song about Vietnam veterans not being treated fairly into a stadium anthem or a song about going to jail for getting involved with an underage girl into a rockabilly runner. But the deeper tracks Downbound Train and No Surrender may be among the best songs on the album despite more than half of the record being hits on the charts. While The Wolf and Action Jackson dive into these tracks as they turn 50, can they separate their emotions from hearing these songs as kids, remove the disdain for people who scream along to Born in the USA without understanding the song's meaning and try to be impartial despite the memories of moms loving Bruce as this time?

Springsteen chose to pursue the release of the Nebraska album over Born In The USA. How did he talk his record label into that? And why, after all these years, no one has told the story of this dark masterpiece.  And, could this be one of the best books of the year? Also included in this episode, are the monthly previews, reviews, and recommendations, which include a minor Beatles Fest (3 books and 1 doc about Beatle members) another Bob Dylan must have, and the annual holiday product dump that comes around every time this year.
