About this listen

 Hosts Jesse Jackson and Sylvan Groth discuss John Hiatt's song about a detested nerd who died in glory from 1979's Slug Line. If you are curious about "World's Greatest Dad" the film Sylvan references, a particularly moving clip of Robin Williams' performance is on youtube. We also include a portion of Patty Griffin's wonderful song "Tony" at the end of the episode. If you or someone you know is suffering, please contact the 988 Lifeline.
