    #224 - Stop Waiting—Lewis Hill on Time & Creativity Today

    In episode 224 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with stand-up comedian, musician, and podcast host Lewis Hill. We dive into his philosophy on time—why waiting is the biggest mistake creatives make, and how the pressure to constantly produce content is killing authenticity. Lewis breaks down his DIY approach to comedy, music, and podcasting while reflecting on how our relationship with time changes as we age.

    #223 - The Secret Behind Addis Luv’s Country Soul Sound

    In episode 223 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with musician Addis Luv to talk about his word for this episode, “Love.” Born in Trinidad and now performing across Florida, Addis shares the journey behind his signature “Country Soul” sound — a fusion of R&B roots, island influence, and classic country inspiration from artists like Dolly Parton. We talk about his transition from performing at Disney to collaborating with songwriter Chris Heaton on new country music. Along the way, Addis opens up about persistence, family, gratitude, and why young artists should embrace their age while chasing their dreams.

    #221 - From Jehovah’s Witness to Stand-Up Success | Chris Robinson

    In episode 221 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with Chris Robinson to talk about his word for the episode, “optimism.” From a strict Jehovah’s Witness upbringing to filming his own stand-up specials, Chris shares how visualization and belief in a bigger future helped him turn comedy from a dream into a career. We unpack the evolution of a comic’s voice — from imitating legends to developing a uniquely conversational stage presence — and the technical realities of performing everywhere from intimate theaters to massive venues. This is a deep dive into resilience, reinvention, and betting on yourself. A FREE way to support the show is by subscribing to ⁠⁠The Johnny Rogers Show⁠⁠ on YouTube - 🚨 NEW EBOOK ALERT!

    #220 - He Refused to Quit on His Country Music Dream: The Randy Cobb Story

    In episode 220 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with Randy Cobb. His word for this episode is “Determined,” and it perfectly captures a journey shaped by trauma, resilience, and an unshakable belief in his dream. From a chaotic childhood to chasing country music in Nashville — through failed record deals, running a trucking business, and devastating personal loss — Randy never stopped writing, never stopped creating. This is a raw conversation about vulnerability, perseverance, and what it really takes to stay in the fight.

    In episode 219 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll.

From working on BlackBerry and Priscilla to navigating viral content and low-effort videos outperforming polished projects, Rodrigo shares what actually builds a lasting career.

    #218 - Mistakes I Made on Purpose: Max Sheldrick on the Comedy Grind

    In episode 218 of The Johnny Rogers Show, I sit down with Max Sheldrick. We explore his "Effort" philosophy and the game-time decision to shelf his filmed comedy special after eighteen months of labor because it no longer represented the comic he had become. Max details his journey from working midnight shifts in a machine shop and repairing wind turbines to a "miracle" encounter with a call center manager who owned a comedy club. We discuss the release of his audio album, Mistakes I Made on Purpose, the 80-hour work week of a touring comedian, and why high-effort creative work is the only sustainable path in a world of low-effort clips.
