On this week's The Co-Write, Bobby and Donovan air a conversation they recorded with the great Josh Weathers prior to a Sunday Supper Club performance by Josh and Bobby back in December. The trio discuss Josh's musical beginnings, his heavy touring days, his decision to take a step back, the viral video phenomenon, and his many charitable works throughout the world. Josh is truly a unique and fascinating individual, and you can see why on this episode!

Bobby and Donovan bring you a look back at the first season of The Co-Write.

Thank you for the first year of The Co-Write! We hope you enjoy all we bring you in 2017!

This week the guys take The Co-Write on the road ... well two stop signs at least ... to The Live Oak Music Hall's green room, where they chum it up with old pal Bleu Edmondson. As they pass the bottle, they share stories including: Bleu's perspective on writing/releasing records, some of the pitfalls of early success in music, opinions on the "business" of music & of course ... Springsteen. The guys also touch on the Texas Rangers' struggles of late, as well as pay respects to the tragedy in Dallas, TX on July 7th.

** Donovan apologizes for the overuse of the F-bomb. He was very excited.
