In this milestone episode, BJ Barbee flips the mic and interviews me, Jordan Swafford — drummer, podcaster, and creator . I talk about my journey, from childhood curiosities like Star Wars and Batman to discovering rhythm and eventually drumming. My influences include Queen, Blink-182, Tool, and drummers like Travis Barker.
I share how discipline, routine, and self-belief keep me grounded while balancing music, podcasting, and entrepreneurship. Since 2021, this podcast has grown into a platform where artists can share their struggles, triumphs, and lessons.
For me, it all comes back to resilience, curiosity, and staying true to your vision — even when others don’t understand it.
Episode 100 — enjoy!
