E236 A Conversation with John Cooper of Skillet

This week, we're scratching The Itch for a revolution! John
Cooper of Skillet joins us to talk about their new album of the
same name. But though they're known for fist-pumping rockers, we
actually spend most of our conversation discussing the band's
softer side. Namely, how John and his wife Korey raised their two
children on the road, and the song John wrote for his daughter's
wedding. Plus, going independent, how to ensure that you're a
favorite tour mate to other bands, and playing four square with
Corey Taylor. It's a truly wholesome affair. Also, Aaron confirms
the superior diet soda and tries to sell John on going old
school! Enjoy.
