Send us a text

It’s Episode 13—and we’re dropping it a day early to kick off your Fourth of July with some red, white, and real talk. 🇺🇸

This special holiday episode features a conversation with social media influencer turned entrepreneur Griffin Johnson, who opens up about his journey from a small town in Illinois to building a career across platforms, brands, and venture capital. From nursing school TikToks to his most viral moments, Griffin shares how authenticity, adaptability, and staying humble have shaped his success.

Meanwhile, the Johns are back—and dressed for the occasion. You’ll want to watch this one on YouTube to see the full glory of their patriotic outfits (spoiler: stars and stripes everywhere). And while Will Beshear did not participate in the fashion parade, he did return to the pod—and he’s bringing more Gen Z wisdom with him. In between roasting the Johns and teaching them new slang (“America is goated all the time”), Will reflects on his recent run for national Beta Club office and what it meant to represent Kentucky on a national stage.

🎙️ In this week’s In My Kentucky Accent, Andy reflects on the meaning of patriotism—not just as fireworks and flags, but as a responsibility to move our country forward, together. “This Fourth of July, let’s see how we can all move forward—as neighbors, not enemies.”

And yes—we dive into the headlines. From the Big Beautiful (or Big Ugly) Bill that could strip health coverage and stall economic progress, to the growing political pressure on university presidents, the guys break it down in a way that’s honest, human, and just the right amount of hot dog humor.

It’s another episode packed with heart, laughs, and insights—plus a few sweet stories about Derby Day, Beta Club, and what makes this country truly worth celebrating.

✅ Be authentic
✅ Talk like a human
