Chad sits down with John Rich, this month’s DemerBox Artist of the Month, for a deep conversation about the music business, creative freedom, and the fine line between success and significance. John talks about the birth of the Music Mafia, the rise of Big & Rich and Gretchen Wilson, and how Nashville’s sound and politics have shifted over the years. He talks about staying authentic, honoring the flag, and writing songs that mean something, even when they ruffle feathers.
We love how John Rich is unapologetically himself. He's outspoken, sharp, funny, and fearless.
If you believe real country music still needs a backbone, this one’s for you.

E504 - $500 to $5,000 Sandals: The Toehold Story with AG Gregoroff & Cody Stamann Part 2
Part two picks up right where the first left off. Chad, AG Gregoroff, the man behind Toehold flip-flops, and UFC fighter Cody Stamann keep it real.
They touch on everything from funny stories and what drives people to invest in ideas and brands.
They break down how Toeholds are built to last when everything else wears out. These guys are proving that quality, grit, and a little audacity still mean something.
It’s another inspiring and hilarious episode you’ll catch yourself replaying. If you thought part one was good, this is where it really feels like you’re in the room, drink in hand, hearing stories that don’t usually make the headlines.
