Adam Hughes @TheHughezy grew up in Belfast where his mother's love for music influenced his own taste, which predominantly lies in songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.

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.
