In the inaugural episode of Burn After Listening, host Nick Rynerson talks with author and film critic Jeffrey Overstreet about “coming of age music” and the albums that defined their high school experience.

  1. I really enjoyed the episode. Hearing y’all talk about Jr High and High School instantly took me back. I started listening to Christian Rock in Jr High (Petra-More Power to Ya, Mylon LeFevre-More) but was listening to Undercover/Stryper/Steve Taylor/Crumbacher once I was in High School. Thanks for the trip down memory lane and I look forward to future episodes.
