In this episode, I sit down with @Matt Warren!

From frat parties in a Chevy van to selling T-shirts for @Gary Allan, Matt’s Nashville come-up is anything but boring. He was waiting tables at Chili’s when a chance encounter with George Strait’s guitar techs kickstarted his songwriting journey—and he’s been chasing it ever since.

We talk about writing hits like “Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain)” and “Learning How to Bend,” getting fired (in a positive way), and the tough battle with addiction that almost took it all. Now 24 years in, Matt reflects on the wild ride, the heartbreak, and the songs that changed everything.

You’re gonna want to hear this one.
