Springsteen’s “No Kings” Tour Buzz + The Spirituality of Sinners, Project Hail Mary & Elvis in Concert (with Maryanne Janosik
Monday, 30 March, 2026
Host Jesse Jackson opens with reactions to a leaked Springsteen rehearsal set list, predicting a more political “Land of Hope and Dreams/No King” tour. Returning guest Maryanne Janosik, a historian researching Springsteen’s Catholic upbringing and its influence, discusses the tour as a spiritual, “gospel-like” continuum tied to servant leadership, roots music, and civic engagement, noting the symbolic arc from Minneapolis to Washington. The conversation shifts to film, including why Ryan Coogler’s Sinners resonated (genre-blending, music mythology, culture), Oscar-season dynamics, mixed feelings on Deliver Me From Nowhere, a review of Project Hail Mary, and a strong recommendation for Baz Luhrmann’s restored Elvis concert film EPiC. 00:00 Prepared Tour Statement 02:53 Meet Marianne Again 04:02 Catholic Roots And Purpose 07:44 Stewardship Over Rapture 10:45 Frankenstein And Redemption 12:14 Art Life And Our Town 15:56 Tour Arc And Activism 17:28 Just Here For The Music 21:14 Roy Orbison Transformation 24:39 From Tour Talk To Movies 27:50 Why Sinners Matters 33:31 Barn Dance Breakdown 34:56 Bold Films vs Safe Picks 36:17 Why Anderson Won 37:40 Jordan’s Award Season Edge 39:14 Marty Supreme Campaign Backlash 41:09 Age Bias in Best Actor 42:49 Why Jordan Beat the Bias 44:28 Springsteen Biopic Misses Spark 49:46 Project Hail Mary Review 53:36 Elvis Concert Film Revival 58:43 Wrap Up and Farewell Learn more about your ad choices.
