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.

E512 - Drip, Data, and Door-to-Door Character Building - Breakin' It Down
Chad and Alex are back and breakin’ it all down! From the lost art of kids actually working for their fundraisers to how our personal info is floating around online. Chad learned what “drip” means (thanks to his daughter), and let’s just say… the fashion feedback wasn’t great.
They get into cyclists, city chaos, and planning spring training trips, and somehow still find time to talk fights, bikes, and what’s coming up this hunting season.
It's the perfect blend of everything that makes Breakin’ It Down what it is: raw, hilarious, and always a little unpredictable. This episode is brought to you by Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, Leer toppers, Oakley Sunglasses, and Pecos Outdoor!
