In a series of conversations around music, the hosts’ personal lives, and their enduring love for America despite its difficulties, Renegades: Born in the USA gives listeners an in-depth look at what it’s like to have a complicated relationship with your country, from the perspective of two hosts who know that topic all too well: former President Barack Obama and Americana rock star Bruce Springsteen. Despite their differences, the hosts have a lot in common — as Obama shared in their first episode of the series, they “both felt like outsiders as kids.” The conversational style makes you feel like you’re right in the room with the icons, which according to Slate, was stocked with whiskey and guitars.
