Ernest highlights his new projects coming out, touring with Morgan Wallen and Hardy, songwriting in Nashville, and he and Jelly's news idea to start a "Versus" in Nashville.

[@JW-28]

Jelly is the gd GOAT. Its awesome to see him blow tf up. He has been grinding for 20+ years.

[@danielmeganhauger2414]

Jellyroll's Bridgestone concert was the greatest experience of mine and my wife's life can't wait to see what the future holds A-Game always FOR THE BOYS

[@jetterdone7434]

Hell yeah, jelly roll is killing it because he makes real music. Save me is my favorite song. But he has a lot of good music.

[@DS_HitEmUp]

Jelly and ern have always been great on this pod

[@bbcchhaapp]

The bussin with the boys song needs to be the theme song. I’d listen to a full version. Great episode and good vibes

[@xxxxxxamie]

I grew up in the system, was in a girls group home in Nashville off west end until I was 18…..I already kNEW the pain & im so proud of Jelly…. My granddaddy was a blue grass musician & my moms family reflated to June Carter - music& pain raised me….I became a nurse & I have never been so impressed with a tuRN around story in my life until Jelly & Bunny. That donation to juvenile was the single most admirable- “reaching back and pulling people up with you” I’ve ever witnessed, love y’all for this. I was watching jelly in strip clubs BACK in the day….. completely proud and grateful for the history and watching it come full circle & Was fan GIRLLING SO hard at the concert for JELLY and Bunny … it’s a total sense of PRIDE that a lot of people needed so much!!!

[@tylerbrown8386]

What a time to be alive! Seeing jelly get the recognition he deserves finally! Thank you Lord for releasing us from the bro county era and give us jelly, Morgan, Ernest, etc!

[@joshfleming4935]

Man, Jelly is such an intelligent person. I could listen to him all day.

[@drake6381]

So refreshing to hear Ernest and Jelly speak on Zach Bryan and give an honest opinion. Music industry is exposed.

[@b.french2621]

Wooo . Back to the roots boys. Jelly is the man ! His song should be #1.

[@AnthonyRodriguez-mi7oq]

[@dewaynerogers2583]

I really hope you see this Will! I lost my mother back in November of last year. (Lost her to a stroke) Your shout out, no free shout out hit so close to home. We have very similar views on our outlook and depression stemming from the loss of our mother's. This pod is my escape that I listen to on my way home from work (when me and my mom would talk about whatever)! You guys have no clue how much you provide an outlet for me. Thanks, I hope to meet you guys some day. #TitanUp #TheBoys #BWTB

[@tylerolson6505]

Thanks Dad for the thank you, I appreciate, that you appreciate me ☺

[@nicolesizemore]

Yay!! Time for more Jelly interviews!

[@rossbaker8815]

Ernest looks in so much better shape since I first saw him, great ep.

[@noahparra2950]

I saw the guest and got HYPED!!!!

[@Unknown-bz5fw]

I went to jelly’s 2 concerts in Southern California (Anaheim and San Diego)I’ve been a fan since his days of 10min freestyles on KZbin haha I’ve waiting for him to come to California . This guy and his team are such good people. In San Diego my mom passed out in the front row and jelly saw what was happening and helped get us help. When the Emt took us to the back jelly told them that once she’s ok to bring us to side stage so he can keep an eye on her 😂(for him to stop the show to do that is crazy) his team took care of us and made what could have been a very horrible night into one of the best nights of both of our lives. The band is so cool the drummer gave my mom a stick and signed it for her. Jelly deserves everything and all the good things coming his way. Thank you jelly roll! And boys I love you and barstool.

[@blayne3192]

Fire pod as always. Love y’all, Merry Christmas!

[@OfficialBBE]

So, I had just come across this interview and while i was working, I was listening to this show in the background because I am a big Jelly Roll fan, and I've been looking for interviews that talk about different aspects of his life-not just the same old questions. Loved the show, as you can tell there was natural chemistry with all of you guys. However, there was one part that grabbed my attention. When you started talking about losing your mother, things got real. I lost my mom two months ago after she had a short battle with stage 4 cancer. What you talked about wasn't the superficial, "interview" response that everyone tends to spew out when talking about losing someone. I stopped what i was doing to hear you give a REAL response, talking about the vulnerability you're facing and what you've needed to do to get through it. Your boys can help you through anything if you let them. Too often, we dont talk about what we need to do to get through things like this, so hearing that you have done that consciously has to be one of the most refreshing things I have heard. Preciate you being real enough to share something so personal, but also just being willing to talk about that vulnerability with the confidence you did. You guys have gained a follower, no doubt. keep it up guys

[@lucasstrein1144]

THE BOOOOOOYS! It’s always a great episode with jelly and ern

[@coreys.4778]

Man seen Ernest, Hardy and Morgan last year and what a goddamn great show it was. Can't wait to see them this year.

[@ronhouse8121]

Will's shout-out this week was one of the best things I have ever heard in my life, watching this episode makes me want to hang with my boys, thanks you for sharing Will. 🐺

[@wrath4567]

For real , imagine how bad ernest felt on the ride home for laughing

[@jeremiahunderwood2855]

Vibes are high out the gate. Can’t wait for this episode.

[@rustincole_w1339]

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years to each of you and your families out there. Blessings and a slap on the butt to all.

[@Clbbh88]

[@rykerandfriends]

Any interview with my man Jellyroll instantly gets a thumbs up

[@ibdeer22]

Jelly and Ern r so down to earth straight for the boys damn good Christmas present shoutout Texas mane

[@MAC10016]

What a great lineup of guests here

[@emilymays6708]

In my opinion or the reason why when I support an artist I support in EVERY way possible. For with With @jellyroll you share just enough of your life I feel what you're singin,rappin, preforming period, you show us enough we can see it comes from a real place that's been lived not something you've imagined, seen a friend go thru, THESE ARE YOUR EXPERIENCES so we can relate so it motivates us to get up, whether it is a super productive day or just make it to shower and eat that day, progress is progress and the days of just making it to shower are behind me for the most part! So thank you jelly! And every podcast you've gone on I follow as well as your wife's pages cuz she's super motivational on woman stuff, thx to u I have a new outlook on being a big girl (not that I'm not all trying to lose) but thank you for being you! Ur amazing

[@leighyeargan4631]

Absolutely love these 2, so glad I found this podcast

[@kyleoconnor2060]

[@kellycollver1931]

I'm hooked on Jelly Roll cause he is giving back to the system that he grew up in for them to have a chance at not getting stuck in that revolving door for the rest of there lives .

[@joshmilam1525]

I was at the Bridgestone show. I’ve been going to concerts since I was five years old. My dad the man who took me to most of those past away in 2019. I can say and I wish I could tell my dad jelly rolls concert was the best concert I have ever seen. Without a doubt

[@joshmilam1525]

Addition had Logan’s on the Opry mills exit. Hot dog water.

[@Frozenheartwjlb]

I love that Jelly is wearing that cap. He knows how to give them flowers to everyone.

[@adamcartwright6220]

Love Jelly and Ernest! Awesome podcast!

[@seehowithink]

Been fucking with Jelly since 07.. Found hate goes on.. So proud of the growth.. Did 13-16 in Cook County Juvenile and 10-13 in Inner city Chicago group homes and foster care.. So inspiring the work Jelly is doing

[@FishfromNJ]

I laughed a lot during this pod. Nothing, absolutely nothing was funnier than Keith’s bad timing with a laugh leading to the heartfelt/sad moment. There is nothing in this world I live for more than those terribly timed moments that just haunt people’s dreams in awkwardness & guilt. Absolutely hysterical. Also I never cared or thought to think about “hanging” with famous or celeb type people. This pod with these 4 dudes made me think I’d wanna do that, just with them tho. Maybe a beat Thursday night or something. Job well done. Merry Christmas. RIP Mama Comp 🙏🏼 Sincerely, Tier maybe like 2.5? Idk P.s. Zach Bryan needs to be on the bus, yesterday.

[@chadgilmore2842]

I love that Jelly Roll just did a commercial for Paradise PD. Love that show!

[@tinaknutsen]

Enjoyed listening to you all kicking it even though this vid was put out last year. Something to consider for a great stocking stuffer or as a gift is O’light flashlights. My husband and I love the varieties they carry. Good camping, survival, lasers and holiday novelty lights. Love your suggestions as well because it’s nice to pack those stockings with items that are useful. I have 5 grown sons and I am always thinking throughout the year to plan ahead; I’ve always had to be that way.

[@kimclark-qi3il]

Do you know what motivates me more than anything ? When I get to listen to you boys and Jellyroll, Bunnie ...Real people who are successful people doing their thing... it doesn't matter - you got there You are humble people whom I can relate to on so many levels. Yet, you show up. You are hard workers - good souls and have a "positive" impact on the world. God bless you. Because of you and others as yourself- Jonny Depp, Kid Rock, etc - I have the inspiration to open my online business If you knew my story- you'd know why you are so precious to me and many others. I had no positive family or really noone in my life for many years. Now- I do. Yep- another life changed for the better. Thank you❤❤❤
