About this episode

Cody Asher shares his journey from a regular musician to becoming Jelly Roll's drummer, discussing the realities of touring and the music industry.

Cody Asher a.k.a. “Pork Chop” pulled up and casually mentioned he’s Jelly Roll’s drummer… and the episode immediately went off the rails. He breaks down exactly how he went from grinding as a regular working musician to landing an opportunity most artists never get — including the real behind-the-scenes steps that got him in the door. We get into what touring at that level is actually like: the pressure, the preparation, playing massive crowds, and the moments on the road fans never hear about. He also talks about what people think touring musicians make vs what it really looks like starting out and leveling up. Plus: the moment it finally hit him that this is real life… and the craziest stories from being on the road.
