Ep. 44: Rob Hatch on Deer Season, Writing Hit Songs, and the Traler Park

This week Reid and Dan host Grand Ole Opry member, Chris Janson out in God's Country. Chris had just gotten back from East Tennessee where he discusses how people can help the folks affected by Hurricane Helene and what it was like. Reid and Dan have the most petty "What You Mad At" stories to date, but we're pretty sure all our dad listeners can relate. They get the play by play from Chris on his most recent elk hunt in Colorado, talk about deer season prep, and the work he is doing with Bass Pro Shop to encourage conservation across the country. They cover the meaning behind "What Ya See Is What Ya Get" and what it was like working with "The Rock" for the music video. A presidential candidate makes an "appearance" that leaves the guys in disbelief and the episode "Gravorite" is a bit rowdy.

This week Reid and Dan host Mr. BG Nation himself out in God/s Country. Brantley Gilbert dives in head first with what he's mad at and turns out, it's little league baseball parents. He shares his journey of music, sobriety, being a landowner, and becoming a dad. The guys share their tattoo stories, including how one of Reid's is completely upside down, but he didn't realize it until it was too late. The episode ends with a Jamey Johnson cover and Brantley's One That Got Away, which had all three of them in tears to end the show.

This week Reid and Dan host Nashville native and multiplatinum artist Mitchell Tenpenny out in God's Country. They cover everything from Nashville traffic, to the transition of Country Music, to Mitchell being exposed to some of the biggest names in the genre at a young age. Mitchell springs it on Reid that he's the reason Mitchell got kicked out of intramural football in college. They throw it back to the days of living on the boat and how Mitchell came to co-write there at one point. Mitchell's new record "The 3rd" is out and he shares an in-depth explanation of why this one's his favorite yet.
