Let's Talk Ten
Dan Fisher and his guests come up with Top Ten lists relating to pop culture --Movies/TV/Music/Etc. -- and then they compare notes.
"Winning" arguments over what's the "best" is never the point. It's just people talking about the stuff they love and why they love it. Sometimes the conversation is silly, sometimes it's deeply personal -- as long as it's entertaining, it goes where it goes.
Each "Let's Talk Ten" will cover a fresh topic (horror movies, debut albums, TV kids' shows) with a different guest. There are no scripts and lists are not shared beforehand.
Episodes will drop every two weeks, on Mondays.
Let's Talk Ten
EP. #52 – SPRINGSTEEN & PETTY with Warren Zanes
Musician (the Del Fuegos), NYU professor, and writer WARREN ZANES and Dan have a deep-dive conversation about rock-and-roll legends BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN and TOM PETTY.
Warren is the author of the best-selling and critically hailed Petty: The Biography, as well as Deliver Me from Nowhere: The Making of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska (which has been adapted into an upcoming motion picture, starring Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen) which, obviously, qualifies him as more than just a fan. To his credit, Dan holds up his end of the discussion as well.
This one is not a comparison of Top Ten lists – it’s an appreciation of two artists – not just as cultural icons, but as driven, flawed, and extraordinary human beings.
Killer soundtrack, too.
