The King of Springsteen: Jesse Jackson
Friday Jan 19, 2024
Friday Jan 19, 2024
Aloha Friends, Matthew Gray here. Thanks for tuning in to 50 Tastes Of Gray. Can you believe it? I scored another Big Name, Jesse Jackson, for this podcast!Jesse Jackson (not the guy who ran for President in 1984) has been a lifelong fan of comic books and all things geek. He tells a great story of one of his earliest memories with his Grandmother who managed a Post Exchange located in Fort Polk, Louisiana. She would allow him to pick out all the comics he wanted to read and would then tear the cover off them so she could get credit for them. The good news is he got many comics; the bad news is that he never got to have comics with a cover.
After seeing Bruce Springsteen perform live for the first time in 2002, he has become a major Springsteen fan and has seen The Boss perform live 19 times (and counting). Jesse loves podcasting and is the host of Set Lusting Bruce, everything you ever wanted to know about Bruce Springsteen.
I call Jesse "The King of Springsteen" and it's a well-deserved moniker. We covered lots of ground on this show, speaking of his upbringing in The South, the food of his childhood, his grandma, and his big-time crush when he was a young boy. Did Jesse "consummate" his desire with this young lady? Tune in to find out.
We had sort of a porch-style chat, but without the moonshine or sweet tea. Enjoy the show, friends. If you dig Springsteen, this'll be a great listen.
