Welcome to Cody Cast. This Cody Allen's podcast. Jordan's Davis
right here, everybody, Yep, yep, yep, yep. We're actually working
for my kitchen table today, so I hope that's where Yeah,
where are you? I am standing by my kitchen table,
So I guess that's not too big of a shaker.
Is there something for breakfast this morning? Because I just
finished my toaster stroodle Um, dude, I haven't heard a
(00:22):
toast in a long time. They still make them. I
was ordering because I've been stalking up like everybody, and
I was ordering um online and I came across like
paste the pastry section, yeah and um, and I found
like frozen toaster shootles strawberry flavor with the extra icing
and they still wake up. So yes, they It takes
me back to my childhood. Yes, I know, same packaging
(00:43):
with the icing that you can like kind of make
the squiggly right, Yeah, you can kind of be artsy
with it. It's uh, it's comfort food in these troubled times.
Absolutely it is. So how are you dealing with it all?
I mean it must be weird, not being on the road,
not doing music like you normally do. Yeah, it's uh,
I mean it's been an adjustment, you know. But I said,
(01:06):
we've been so busy the last three years. Uh that
I kind of when whenever the first news came and
they were like, hey, we're shutting down till May one,
I kind of almost had like this like deep breath.
Like obviously it was quick to be pay it because
I started thinking about my guys in my band. Uh,
(01:27):
but for me personally, like it's such a blessing to
be at home with Eloise for a little bit. How
old is she now? Four months? Four months? Okay, Yeah,
I'm kind of with you on this. I'm so glad
you said it because it did strike me at first, like, okay,
because I go all the time, the idea of like
being home for just even a few days was kind
(01:50):
of like, Okay, I could sort of enjoy this a
little bit. And how is uh, how's Eloise doing. She's
doing good, man, She's uh, you know, she's she's growing up.
It's cool with it. Now. She's kind of starting to
starting to find like she's got like her favorite toy.
So he's just becoming more interactive, you know, like it's
(02:11):
not just a baby that you just put in a
chair and look at like now she's she's laughing and
smiling and it's just kind of you know, she's she's
going up. Will you be back out on the road,
assumed Brad Paisley summer tour. Um, do you know Brad
pretty well? Is she a palu? How did all this
come together? I don't, man. I mean, obviously I'm a
huge fan, but like I've never met Brad. Uh, but
(02:35):
I'm looking forward to being out with him. Man. I've
heard nothing but amazing things. He's a great guy and
obviously one of the one of the top guys in country.
And uh, man, it was just a im I'm honored
to be out with him and uh and looking forward?
Is this gonna be a fun tour? He's a prankster,
to which prepare yourself. I think you ought to there
ought to be like a whoever tours with Brad ought
(02:57):
to get like an instruction manual on how to pull
off the perfect prank. Yeah, because I feel like he
is the he's the boss though he's so good at
But you know what's crazy too, is I was talking
about because like that's whatever, Like whenever they're like are
you going out Paisley. Dude, he pranks hard. I'm like, man,
They're like, so you need to have your prank game ready,
but like I don't ever. I always feel so weird
(03:20):
pranking the guy that has me out on tour, you know, right, well,
maybe this night one in like a hazmat suit I'm
thinking or something. Oh I like that, dude, you should
have told me that when you do that on my air. Um,
let's talk about slowly answering the parking lot on its
way to a number one. There's a line in there
(03:41):
that's stuck out to me because of the fact what
we're going all going through that was making the most
of whatever we got. Oh man, I'll be honest with you.
I kind of feel the exact same way. It's like, dude,
we're and I know we touched on earlier, but just
being so busy, but like even just as a country,
you know, I mean, with social media and everything that's
just going on now, it's just kind of like we
(04:01):
go so fast and it's it's go, go, go, go go,
And sometimes I do think it's healthy to just whether
it's a fourth stop like we're in right now, or
just like a time where you just have to say like, hey,
I need to kind of recenter and and and make
sure that everything else other than my job is good
in my life. I just hope that there's some positive
(04:23):
that comes out of, like you said, just just slowing
down for a little bit. You know. It doesn't remind
me of like the days after nine eleven two, like
where we all just sort of like reconnect reset everything,
and that meant maybe taking things a little slower and
figuring out, like what's what's most important again. I think
that those are that's that can be a really good
thing that comes a silver lining if you will, that
(04:44):
comes out all this absolutely Back to the song for
a second. It was written the co writer on this
one all about his first date with his wife. So
I wondered, if you and your wife have like a
song that that you share. What's your song? I don't know.
We always listen to some James Tay it together. Okay,
not even really that she's like James Taylor fan. Uh.
(05:07):
I don't like maybe early on we were I was
playing James Taylor and like that's just kind of kind
of become an artist with was du Van Morrison. Uh,
kind of some of those older songwriter. You guys, so,
but yeah, I don't know if I like, I don't know.
If I had to nail one down, probably fire and right.
Was that your wedding song? No? Uh, we we were,
(05:30):
John Legend, I'm gonna love you. That was our first dance.
We won't be long before you're doing a little daddy
daughter dance at some point, Cody, don't say that, man,
It's true. It's goes so fast. I'm telling you get
out the sponge and soak up all of these moments
because it will fly by. Um as we wrap here,

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
