Recorded: June 5th 2023 | The Boys are finally back from their week off. Will and Taylor recap their weeks away and what all they did with their family. Will compared a Florida town to Italy, which is a wild thought. The Boys are also playing in a celebrity softball game so they preview that game as well. Following the intro, we are joined by country music artist, Brantley Gilbert. The guys get right into how Brantley had an epiphany during a party and decided to change his life. He talks about his road through addiction and what made him realize he wanted to get better. Then they get into how Corey Smith was such a big influence on Brantley because they are both from the same small hometown. He tells a story of how Corey actually saved him from getting kicked out of a bar when he was young and then actually let him perform. Then Brantley talks about some decisions that he would have made differently coming up in the industry as well as some that he would do the same. The boys reflect back on the time when burning CDs was a thing and Brantley tells the story of how he gave a CD to his girlfriend, now wife. Which then sparks the topic of boyfriends since Will, Taylor and Brantley all have daughters. Each of them tried to figure out how they would react to that situation when it arises and Brantley has a hilarious idea to get his point across to that boyfriend. This pod has some deep conversations but also has some hilarious stories from Brantley's time on the road. He fits right in with the guys and even decides to share some of his “Getcha high's” with the boys.
