Ryan Hurd sits down with Bobby to talk about life as both an artist and one of Nashville’s most successful songwriters. He shares the stories behind writing songs for Morgan Wallen, Lady A, Jordan Davis and more, including how “Heartless” became one of the biggest songs of his career. Ryan also opens up about why songwriting feels more like a calling than a job, the reality of making a living through streaming and touring, and what it takes to keep chasing songs that stand out. Plus, he gets personal about his upcoming album, how writing helped him process a difficult chapter of his life, and why this record feels like the closing of one door and the beginning of something new.

What do you do when all the bad things are happening at once? This week, a listener shares that her husband is recovering from open heart surgery while three of her siblings have been diagnosed with serious cancers. She's always been the positive one, but now she feels numb and can't even cry. Should she force herself to feel it, push it away, or just be grateful she's okay? We talk through grief, worry, and how to hold it all when life gets really hard.

Then, a listener finds herself stuck in the middle after her mom and her husband's estranged dad started dating (and even walked down the aisle together at her wedding!). Now the relationship has turned toxic, her husband wants nothing to do with either of them, and everyone is waiting for someone else to apologize first. How do you keep the peace when your family is torn apart?
