In this episode of 'Set Lusting Bruce,' Jesse Jackson steps off the Bruce Springsteen train and dives into a fascinating conversation with comedy writer and musician, Steve Young. Best known for his 25-year stint with 'The Letterman Show,' Steve shares stories from his career, his unique record collection featured in the documentary 'Bathtubs Over Broadway,' and his foray into alt-country music with his album 'Broken Heart Insurance.' Tune in for an engaging discussion about the intersections of comedy, music, and the unexpected turns life can take.
