What if Elvis, Buddy and Janis didn't die. What if they faked their death for a greater purpose? What if there is a universe where Kurt, Jimi & John are not part of Rock n' Roll Heaven. That is the premise of Jay and Kyle's new book - The Dead Rock Stars. They join me today to talk about their friendship, their partnership and their hopes about the book and the universe it has created.

Maggie Wheeler was not a Springsteen fan. If she was going to give her love to a working class local hero, it was John Mellencamp all the way. In 2012, Maggie married Ray (who was a huge Bruce Fan) and like many mixed marriages, they found other common ground. Then something happened. I won't spoil it here, please listen to the podcast and then go read her story - https://www.letterstoyou.net/post/baptized-by-bruce-a-brand-new-springsteen-fan-shares-her-experience Learn more about your ad choices.
