Episode 142 - Cody Hanson from Hinder! Cody is not only the drummer, but he also co-founded the band as well as co-wrote, and co-produced much of the music. Many people know their big hit “Lips of an Angel” but there are sooo many more good songs! Hear all about the band’s rise to fame, collaborating with Mick Mars & Richard Marx, plus a story that makes Ozzy’s ant snorting look tame. All this and much more!
