Real Brave Live is the music podcast that isn’t afraid to ask the real questions about music podcasts about the music industry’s biggest moments. From deep dives into the latest Grammy winners to the controversies that keep artists and fans talking, we break down what’s really happening behind the scenes.
The 2025 Grammys were full of surprises—Beyoncé made history with her first Album of the Year win for Cowboy Carter, Chappell Roan took home Best New Artist, and Kendrick Lamar dominated the night. But are the Grammys truly about artistic excellence, or is it all just industry politics?
We’re unpacking decades of Grammy snubs, the transparency (or lack thereof) in voting, and whether artists like Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and Kendrick Lamar are winning based on merit or insider influence. Plus, we’ll discuss how changes to the nomination process have impacted results and whether the Recording Academy’s recent reforms have made a difference.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
