Steven Tyler pt. 1

Oprah
About this episode
In the two-part podcast, Oprah visits idyllic Sunapee, New Hampshire for an intimate, heart-to-heart talk with rock n' roll icon, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. The conversation takes place just days after the death of Steven’s beloved father. Steven speaks of his parents' influence on him and his own role as an often-absent father of four. Steven reflects on ex-wives and ex-girlfriends, the feuds with bandmates that almost destroyed Aerosmith, his decades-long struggles with drug and alcohol addiction and what he really thinks of the man he replaced on "American Idol," Simon Cowell.
