Katie Frank: Bro Country, Satire, and The Babies Before The Baby

"Can you imagine if you started having contractions while on the podcast?" Singer-songwriter Katie Frank returns to the show for her second appearance, and let’s just say she’s "dropping" a lot more than just hit singles. As she prepares for the arrival of her first child, Katie joins Jrod to discuss the release of her sharp, satirical new single "Bro Country" and the upcoming tracks "Borrowed Trouble" and "No Hard Feelings." In this episode, we pull back the curtain on Katie’s brilliant, layered comedic sensibility—which Jrod describes as the Arrested Development of music videos. We talk about the "Bluth-style" takedown of industry caricatures, her transition from the Nashville hustle back to life in Pennsylvania, and why the old fears of balancing a music career with motherhood are finally being dismantled by artists like her and Maggie Rose. It’s an honest, hilarious, and high-stakes conversation about what happens when your career is hitting a high note just as this baby is coming quick! __ Inside the Episode: The Satire of "Bro Country": Deconstructing the visual gags and the "Her?" moments in her latest video.
