Cody Johnson stops by to talk about the scariest kind of setback for a singer: damaging his ear and wondering if his voice would ever feel the same again. He walks Bobby through the surgery, the unexpected upside of vocal rest, and what it’s like recording a new album after that kind of fear. Then it gets real-life Cody growing up near Huntsville, Texas, sneaking into bars at 14 to sing, and the no-plan-B moment that pushed him to chase music for real. Bobby also digs into Cody’s unique perspective from being around the prison world through his dad’s job, including what people get wrong about it and what actually happens day to day. Plus: the rodeo lifestyle, building his ranch, the Houston Rodeo break, riding out on a horse, and why entertaining a crowd still feels like a drug.

The BobbyCast is now streaming full episodes on Netflix!
