When the rhythm of life throws us curveballs, sometimes it's the beat of our own hearts that guides us back to joy. Join us on a soul-stirring journey with ex-800 meter runner and rockstar, Jody Hopkins, as we track his transition from the highs of athletic prowess to the enigmatic world of music and back again—only this time, he's reviewing albums while pounding the pavement. Prepare for an episode filled with laughter, candid revelations, and the shared understanding that whether in running shoes or on the stage, the race is all about embracing our passions.

The tempo changes as I lay bare the struggles of my recent separation, finding solace in the therapeutic duo of running and music. My latest album "Voice" is more than a collection of songs—it's a reflection of my soul's narrative, a story steeped in the intricacies of fatherhood and the quest for personal identity. As we dissect the creative process, you'll discover how each track echoes the simplicity and sincerity of the emotions etched into its making. It's not just about the music; it's about how the rhythms and chords of life play out in the most unexpected ways.

We cap off this melodious session with a look back at the sparks that ignited our fire—the morning runs that shaped our childhood, the decisions that molded our futures, and the rediscovery of joy in the paths we once left behind. Whether you're a long-time listener or new to the beat, this episode promises to strike a chord, offering a heartfelt invitation to engage with us further. Questions, laughter, and reflections await in our next heart-to-heart, and we can't wait to continue this symphony of stories with you.
