“For What It’s Worth” by Buffalo Springfield (f/ Leah Haslage)

This week, we’re joined by Leah Haslage, host of the Bridechilla podcast, to dive into the cultural and musical legacy of Buffalo Springfield’s timeless classic, “For What It’s Worth.” Though often linked with the Vietnam War, the song’s origins trace back to the Sunset Strip curfew riots—a protest of a very different kind. With Neil Young and Stephen Stills at the helm, Buffalo Springfield laid the groundwork for an entire generation of folk rock. Together, we’ll explore how this iconic protest anthem transcended its original context, the ways pop culture—like Forrest Gump—has revitalized its relevance, and how music’s commercialization affects its impact. Let’s hit rewind on the 60s and uncover what made this track thunder. One Hit Thunder is brought to you by DistroKid, the ultimate partner for taking your music to the next level.
