Before we move on to record, I do want to just hear about the morning when all the CMA nominations came out.

I'm so disassociated when I get home that I rarely know what's going on.

So, like, my phone just blew up, and I was working on my place and getting stuff done.

I think we had roped that morning, worked some horses, and I was like, man, who died?

Yeah.

Oh, it seems like it should be bad news.

Did COVID hit again?

You know, like, my phone, I've got 47 text messages.

And then I start opening it and it's all the balloons and the confetti Congratulations, and I called Brandy and I was like what am I being congratulated for?

She's like you just got nominated for five CMAs.

I was like, oh sweet.

What are they?

You know what I mean?

Male book list of the year, album of the year, single of the year, music video of the year.

Damn!

Yeah, it's a lot.

Yeah, you know the two that I'm the most proud of are for the songs, you know, Dirt Cheap and The Painter But that goes to the writers and that award doesn't go to me, but like I always wanted to be a songwriter

and so like that's the coolest award ever like

when you're getting to help songwriters do their thing like I'm

I get to be the vessel kind of it's really cool I love

that I love the way you framed

that in both of those songs too I think it's just interesting like it's interesting

that on an album like Leather where they're where Dirt Cheap

and The Painter those are both kind of the those are like the serious contenders right yeah

and it's just cool that both of them end up getting to have a moment.

I try to take a very athletic standpoint to what I do.

So like if you want to be the best quarterback, like I want to approach this like Tom Brady.

I want to approach this like Conor McGregor or Michael Jordan.

Like when we're in the game, I'm here to win.

Yeah.

And I'm here to be the best and I'm here to dominate.

Now get outside the game.

I love our country music family and there's nothing I wouldn't do for any one of my friends.

And when they won an award over me, I'm genuinely happy.

Like, really, I'm like, heck yeah, she won.

Or heck yeah, he won, you know.

But when we're in the game on stage, I'm here to be the best.

And when it comes to putting a record together or picking the songs, like, I really, I'm here to try to clear all the air.

Like, I don't know, because I want to be around forever.

Yeah.

I mean, I, that kind of level of competitiveness speaks to me personally, but also, I mean, hard to not connect it to your past as a rodeo guy too.

Yeah, I think that has a lot to do with it.

And I still, you know, I'm still roping and rodeoing and doing all that.

And sometimes I win and sometimes I just get my ass kicked.

Wait, okay, so can you explain?

I'm obviously like, I'm a Nashville girl.

So I'm like, I'm a city girl.

But I'm like, you know, Nashville is Nashville.

So it is, it's country and city.

But I didn't grow up around any of these kinds of sports.

You're still actively competing?

Yeah.

What?

Yeah, like that.

I won this buckle this year.

What?

Yeah.

What does it say?

Brazos Valley Classic Champion.

Okay.

Yeah, but it's team roping.

What is that?

So you got one guy that comes out and the steer is released and there's two horses, two guys, and you have one guy catches the head and the horns,

turns him, and one guy catches the feet.

Whoever does that the fastest wins.

And usually it's like a four steer average of what your time is.

And it's pretty competitive.

And the reason why I like it so much is because it's five mines.

It's this guy and his horse, this guy and his horse, and then there's a steer.

And there's so many variables right there.

So when it does work and you win a buckle or you win a little paycheck, it's like everything was perfect that day.

And then you have days where it's like the header where you catch every steer and then every single healer misses.

And you call your wife and she's like, how did you rope?

And I'm like, I roped great.

Yeah.

But I didn't win anything.

That's hard too.

You ought to ask my wife about team roper math.

Yeah, that's fascinating.

I'm like, hey, I won $30,000.

She's like, no, you didn't.

You were pulling a $150,000 trailer, pulling a $75,000 horse.

You didn't win anything.

I'm like, I know, but it was fun.

Okay, there are three co-writes on this album, three places that you show up as a writer.

I'm always a little bit intrigued, just like, oh, interesting.

Like, this is what was coming out of your brain.

What the hell is going on in Georgia Peach?

Oh Like I have tried to just I think I finally discerned this story, but I'm like this is fascinating It was an accident.

Okay, so a friend of mine who will remain nameless Randy Mayer

Brings us this jug of its its brass line copper steel sure enough Georgia Moonshine, but it's got peaches in it and it's dangerous because

it's so good it's so sweet but if you drink about

that much of it you're going to be in a bind uh

so after a show one night we were in Georgia

and uh started drinking these peaches me

and my guitar player Jake Mears my band leader

and fiddle player uh Jody Bartula were sitting on the bus

and we all get to we get pulling on this jug of these peaches

100

and I just had we had our our guitars out and stuff.

101

And I just said, Georgia peaches, Georgia peaches.

102

They'll tear you all to pieces once you run them through that copper line.

103

And I'm sitting there playing it and Jake's kind of playing on his banjo.

104

And I looked around, I was like, and they're burning down the county.

105

Still ain't nobody found me looking for that man that's been running shine.

106

And it just kind of, the story just fell out.

107

I love it.

108

I have no, I had no idea where that story was going.

109

My wife goes, Brandy says, did you put Jesus and methamphetamines in the same song?

110

I was like, yeah.

111

Yeah, baby.

112

Well, because I was thinking, I was like, you know, now it ain't no big deal.

113

But, I mean, 30, 40 years ago or more, running moonshine was a bad deal, right?

114

Nobody cares now.

115

You know, it's not a big deal.

116

Why?

117

Well, thanks to those methamphetamines, nobody's worried about the moonshine.

118

And it was like, it just, the story fell out.

119

That's so fun.

120

Okay, then we go from, like, you know, Georgia Peaches, which is an absolute great time,

121

to the doozy that is I Wish It Was You.

122

So Hardy, Michael Hardy, sends me this song.

123

And the demo was like, you remember the song Hey There, Delilah?

124

That's what it was like.

125

Shoulda left that last phone on the bar.

126

That's what the demo sounded like?

127

And I was like, I was so enthralled with the lyrics.

128

But my deal was this guy in this song is miserable.

129

He screwed his life up.

130

There's no chance of getting her back.

131

And he's drowning in a bottle and he's going, hey.

132

I did it.

133

I wished it was you.

134

Sorry.

135

I screwed up.

136

It was late.

137

I was drunk.

138

I was drunk.

139

And I wished it was you.

140

And so I picked up my guitar and I was like, I just want, this guy's sad.

141

It needs to sound sad.

142

You know, the Grand Tour by George Jones is sad.

143

You know, he stopped loving her today.

144

It's sad.

145

And so I tried to paint melodically this guy to be what he is.

146

It's Merle Haggard, Misery and Gin.

147

And whenever Hardy and his co-writer came by the studio, they were like, where did you get this from?

148

I was like, well, the guy y'all wrote about was really messed up.

149

This needed to sound sad.

150

It needed to feel that way.

151

So that's where that came from.

152

Okay.

153

I got the chance to hear.

154

I just randomly went to a writer's round at the Bluebird, which I'm so cynical anymore.

155

I hardly get to do.

156

Yeah.

157

And Kelly Archer was there.

158

And she performed it was the week after I'm gonna love you with Carrie Underwood came out

159

and I'm I'm been saying this is a song This is song of the year.

160

This is a major hope you're right.

161

Y'all heard it here first You know y'all have to be saying it to y'all have to be thinking it.

162

I mean, this is a massive massive song

163

And she's telling the story about them writing it

164

and it was just like what's a Boring title

165

that we could just write the shit out of I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna love you Yeah, and then they just wrote it They wrote the shit out of it.

166

I think it's amazing because it's so simple Yes, this is gonna happen and this is gonna happen

167

and this is gonna happen But I'm gonna love you

168

and then this is gonna happen and this is gonna happen

169

and I'm gonna love you It's like but that's kind of the basis of like marriage

170

It's just so simple like we we overthink Relationships we overthink marriages and all this stuff.

171

It's like dude no matter what happens.

172

I'm just I'm gonna love you And that's that's I think it's beautiful and the way that hooked melodically that

173

I don't know whether that was Kelly or whether that was Travis, but that's the coolest melody ever So it sounds like this song had been in your orbit for a second.

174

Okay, so my story on the song is

175

Travis had played me this song when we were out doing some shows together

176

And I was like I'm in love with this song like please let me have this song

177

and this was when I was cutting human

178

so Universal says this is going to be a single on Travis's record and I never heard of it again

179

unbeknownst to me Travis is not a single

180

so he pitches it to Carrie goes in Carrie's pile doesn't make Carrie's cut

181

so it goes back out right

182

and Travis had even talked about maybe him doing it as

183

a duet with Carrie still I don't know this I'm completely oblivious to this

184

so when we come around to leather I'm like what was

185

that song that Travis pitched me that one time that like him and Kelly Archer wrote this, like I'm gonna

186

It's I'm gonna love you so we get it

187

and as soon as I hear it I go Carrie it's Carrie Underwood Well, but what about what if we can't get care what about her

188

or what about her and I'm like that's great It has to be Carrie Underwood

189

or I'm not cutting the song

190

So then whenever I finally talked to Carrie she's like well

191

everything happens for a reason like this is the second time

192

The song has been put in front of me like really so I hear her version of the story Yeah, yeah, and I'm like it was just meant to be

193

The other freaky thing about this song is y'all should not sound that good together.

194

It's really weird It's like kin harmony.

195

I said this in an interview earlier.

196

I grew up singing with my parents.

197

We called it family harmony Yes, like so Jake and Jody we've but we've all been singing together for over a decade We have family harmony.

198

I can do something completely different and they just jump to me.

199

They already know yeah, so It's interesting because Carrie said two things.

200

I don't do is love songs and and low register.

201

So like when we were tracking it, I called her and she was listening and I'm like, do we need to go step up?

202

Do we need to go step down as far as key?

203

Are you good with the production tempo and all this?

204

And so she kind of signed off on it and I was like, all right, cool.

205

Then when we got into seeing it, I'd already done my vocals.

206

So she comes in the studio, she does her vocals.

207

And when we got to the end of it.

208

Are you there?

209

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

210

I don't miss a beat in the studio.

211

Like that's, I'm very, very, very hands in the mud on this stuff my fingers on all of it.

212

And it just like, I don't know what it, it wasn't a look of like disappointment on her face, but it was just like this.

213

It was like, hmm.

214

I'm like, what are you, what are you not liking?

215

Like, what's not, what's wrong?

216

Cause I'm kind of like, oh gosh, it wasn't, it didn't have the boom panicking.

217

It didn't have well.

218

And I'm sitting there going like, we're both professionals, you know what I'm sitting there?

219

Like for me, it doesn't have that thing either.

220

And I'm like, I don't know what do you, she's like, what if we just sing it live?

221

I'm like that's a great idea to each other.

222

Yeah So we went in opposite sides of glass just like you

223

and I are sitting and we sang it live and that's what's on the record That's what you're hearing is one take.

224

Stop it.

225

I swear to God and but the cool part was is now We're sitting there singing.

226

I could see her

227

When she's gonna breathe and she's watching me for what so that part in the bridge that mmm

228

That was completely ad-libbed but we're sitting there being able to look at each other and going you're gonna go All right, I'm gonna go with you.

229

And it was so organic.

230

So it was like singing in church

231

And afterwards I was like now that that was it like

232

that was the take that's the one So here's the thing that that makes sense to me.

233

But when I hear this performance It is

234

so masterfully precise It just doesn't even feel like it could

235

be a live vocal like that's crazy I mean obviously in

236

the studio there's gonna be some you know some mic pops

237

that they edit or like there was a S that wasn't time.

238

Yeah.

239

But no, that's nuts.

240

But it was crazy.

241

And we did it the one time.

242

I was like, I'm pretty sure we just got what we needed.

243

And Trent Willman and Jack Clark are sitting there going.

244

Yeah.

245

We got it.

246

Yes.

247

Like, just get out of there.

248

You're fired.

249

Get out of the booth.

250

I love it so much.

251

But, you know, like, afterwards, you know, I wanted to make sure she was happy with it.

252

And she's like, dude, it's your song.

253

Like, of course I'm happy with it.

254

And I think this song for me, It's just one of my favorite songs I get to show

255

off a little bit I think for her we hear a different side of Carrie's vocal

256

That is so freaking It's my favorite side of her vocal

257

That sultry Aretha Franklin thing I see it almost like it's like the caramel part Of her tone

258

If that makes sense And it's a little warmer And a little darker

259

But still just as precise And just as controlled

260

I thought it was great And she's been so gracious Even through the creation of the music video worked with me for, I mean, we sat in that studio for 12 hours and never,

261

never weakened, did everything with a smile on her face.

262

And I'm like, dude, thank you.

263

Like you didn't have to do that.

264

You know, I think I would assume that their team sees this as a big song too.

265

I mean, it's not just a favor to a buddy.

266

This is, I mean, and I know there's a lot of mutual respect there, but this is a big song.

267

Carrie and I are not, and before this, we're not like besties and all that stuff.

268

Like, but we've known each other.

269

I remember the night we met at an award show, I think it's 2022.

270

And I went to the hotel room and I was, because we sat next to each other.

271

And I told my wife, I was like, she was like really nice.

272

She said, yeah.

273

She's so kind.

274

I was like, you seem like such a cool person, you know.

275

And I still haven't gotten to meet her husband yet, but apparently we have a lot in common.

276

And I'd like to go hunting if you're watching this.

277

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

278

Let's make it happen.

279

If you're listening, I'd like to go hunting.

280

But yeah, it was one of those things that we kind of really developed our friendship over the song, which I think is very special too.

281

That's kind of how it happened for me and Reba too.

282

And now Reba's one of my besties.

283

The album closes on the Mustang.

284

This is another one of the co-write that one of your rights.

285

This is one of those songs that

286

Well one it's just deep mm-hmm Like and everybody is not gonna feel this way about offense

287

right right but I Happen to think that when Well, I want why don't you set up with the song?

288

I wanted to hear your take on it I was just gonna say

289

that inside having full freedom inside of a boundary is a really beautiful thing

290

and it provides safety and Like I think it's one of the ways

291

that God cares for us I remember on my wedding day Our pastor from colleges who married us

292

and he said you're about to watch two people do the riskiest and safest thing in the world.

293

That's a great way to put it.

294

Wow.

295

And so obviously, I mean, I interpret this song as kind of that moment, the come to Jesus moment.

296

Okay.

297

But I'd like to hear what it is, what it's about for you.

298

So Wes Bayless, who is the lead singer of the Steelwoods, which is one of my favorite bands ever.

299

So he sent this song to me and it was at a time.

300

Let me say this first.

301

I am not a perfect person.

302

If you back me in a corner, I will fight my way out.

303

I have no problem telling you what's on my mind.

304

And sometimes it's I have to apologize for the things I say.

305

You know, I like a good cocktail.

306

I'm not a I'm not a preacher.

307

OK.

308

But I had reached a point in my life as just a man, as just a man.

309

But, you know, as a husband as well, where I feel like I'd hit rock bottom where I'm like, I'm looking in the mirror and I really don't like what I'm seeing.

310

You know, like, how do I change the way I think?

311

How do I change my habits?

312

How do I change my triggers that go back to that person that I don't want to be?

313

You know, because when I was a young, when I was a young man, I was, I was pretty wild.

314

Like, and I know people are going to be like, what?

315

When I say this, but very, very well could have wound up in prison.

316

pretty wildcat.

317

Um, and nobody could tell me anything.

318

Um, so I was, I was questioning a lot of things about myself and felt like if I talked to God,

319

like I'm not worthy anyway, he's probably not listening anyway.

320

You know, who would want to listen to me?

321

And, uh, then I felt like a hypocrite too.

322

Cause you get on stage and everybody's like, Oh my God, Cody Johnson, you're so awesome.

323

Like, dude, if you only really knew, you know, the, the mental stuff and the, and the stuff that's going on.

324

And so I was in this funk, man.

325

And Wes sends me this song.

326

And at 30, I'm 37 now, but at 36, it clicked because I own horses.

327

This metaphor of this Mustang, you see a Mustang running wild and free across the prairie.

328

Well, he has to worry about predators.

329

He has to worry about his own safety, his own health.

330

He has to worry about all that.

331

And it's all about him.

332

And he's got to worry about all this stuff to keep himself.

333

But my horses on my place that are inside that fence have the best food.

334

They have the cleanest water.

335

They have the cleanest stalls.

336

They get brushed.

337

They get exercised.

338

They get corrected too.

339

So I've got a certain horse that every now and then he wants to, he wants to really run off.

340

I've got a certain bit.

341

You know, the bit is what goes in their mouth.

342

It's pretty aggressive.

343

And I only break that out whenever he decides he wants to go do too much.

344

And when I put that bit in his mouth and I give him one of these, it's an ouch.

345

Okay.

346

okay that hurt I'm gonna stop then you take that bit out

347

and you put the soft bit back in his mouth

348

and say okay now that you're listening

349

and it clicked it uh it clicked for me that God does

350

that with us you know for me for a lot of

351

years he just let me run off fine you want to run run see how you do on your own

352

and then and you're like ow

353

that hurt like why am I going through all this stuff

354

because I'm trying to save you I'm trying to trying to put you in this fence where you'll be safe

355

and you'll be free.

356

Once you're in this fence, you're free.

357

There's a freedom to it.

358

And when that metaphor clicked to me, I called Wes and I was like, hey, why'd you send me this?

359

He's like, man, I just had you on my mind and, you know, and just, I really felt like you would relate to this song.

360

And I'm like, please, please let me have it.

361

And he was kind enough to make me a writer on it because I changed a few things here and there, but I'm not really a writer on it.

362

All the credit goes to Wes, but the story in this song was just, it changed my life For sure.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
