Episode 258: John Cooper of Skillet (Encore)
This week, Kevin + Steph are back with one of their dream guests, John Cooper of the band Skillet. John Cooper is the lead singer and one of the founders of Skillet, which is one of the best-selling rock bands of this century. The two-time Grammy-award nominated and 17X platinum band was recently inducted to Pandora’s Billionaire club after garnering 2 billion streams.
In this conversation, Kevin tells John the hilarious story of how Steph thought they were going to be talking to John Cooper, the retired Ohio State football coach, instead of John Cooper, the rocker from Skillet.
Also, John shares so many great stories including…
– What awards shows are ACTUALLY like when the TV camera is on you.
– What his parents thought about Christian rock music and taking him to a Petra concert when he was a kid.
– What happened when Skillet attempted to make a music video in the style of the band KISS, but the pyrotechnics got out of control!
– AND how the band did not compromise when asked to take the words “Jesus” and “God” out of their lyrics when mainstream music labels wanted to sign them.
You won’t want to miss this episode with the lead singer of Skillet, John Cooper.
John’s new book “WIMPY, WEAK AND WOKE,” comes out in November 2023. See the link below to order yourself a copy.
