Greetings beautiful people!
On this episode we're playing an interview Jamey did on the Creative Coping podcast with Johnny Anomaly in September 2019. Jamey shares how he got into hip-hop, the current state of the genre and his thoughts on it, as well as the art of storytelling in hip-hop and the importance of saying something. He shares some of the creative processes behind creating music, specifically the Royalty Check & Unexpected Joy EP's.
Johnny and Jamey then talk about Jamey's involvement in the Samson Society, which is a community of men who are serious about authenticity, humility, and recovery.
Lastly he talks about his experience with grief and depression, and how the songwriting process on Unexpected Joy became like survival for him. Tune in and be sure to share this episode with anybody who you think could benefit from it.
Peace and infinite blessings!

We should call this episode 4th Time's A Charm as this is the fourth time we have had the pleasure of talking with Elissa Bjeletich Davis, an author and fellow podcaster.
She updates us on what's been happening with her since the last time she was on the show. We set it off getting right into deep stuff. She share with us what it's like living with loss and how grief is something that is connected to love. We talk about family life and how that affects how we measure time.
Elissa then lets us in on what a post divorce life is like, how it disrupts routines, and how to rebuild after.
We wrap things up with her giving us the story of her remarriage and what life is like trying to create new rhythm.
Be sure to check her out on Facebook and Instagram @elissbjeletichdavis and her website www.elissabjeletichdavis.com as well as her podcast Everyday Orthodox on Ancient Faith Radio.

Whaddup good people?! Hope the new year has been good for you so far. After a little time away to recharge and refresh, we're back with the first episode of 2023!
On this episode we bring you and interview Chunjay did on a radio show called "The Jiggy Jaguar Show" on iHeart Radio. He discusses with them the meaning on some songs from "World's Okayest Rapper" EP (produced by CookBook), and shares some stories about the recording process and lyrical content.
It's pretty much like audio liner notes, so you'll get some idea of how Jamey gets creative, and learn some more details on the recording of the EP. There are shipwrecks behind the lyrics, and he gets to discuss it on radio. Tune in and turn it up!
The new Royal Ruckus record Come On and Wake Up! comes out January 21, 2023!

Just like that we're back with a super fresh baked episode hot from the oven!
On this episode we get to sit down with author, trauma-informed coach, and fellow podcaster Nicole Roccas. She takes the time to share with us how she got interested in the theme of time, how vast a subject it is, and how it affects our lives. We deep dive with the concept of time and how the idea of what time is has changed through the years.
This leads us into her experience with trauma and how she started her journey as a trauma-informed coach helping other people through some of the difficult things in life. She shares how trauma has effected creatives and artists and what she does to speak into their lives with "trauma-informed creative coaching."
This truly was a special conversation and we hope it helps you.

Once again, Nomadik Vagabond here!!! What up beautiful people of the global sphere!!! We hope y'all had a great time giving thanks!!
We got the pleasure of chopping it up with Mike Landsman, a pastor, hospital chaplain, and husband & father. He gives a glimpse into his daily routine as a hospital chaplain and shares with us the joys and challenges he faces dealing with people who are often terminally ill.
After jumping right into the heavy stuff we discuss his upbringing as a pastor's kid, his time in the Word Faith Movement (https://www.equip.org/perspectives/word-faith-whats-wrong-with-the-word-faith-movement/)and how he was introduced to the early church fathers and the impact their teaching has had on his life.
He is also co-host of The Areopagus podcast on Ancient Faith Radio with Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick. He shares his experience being a non-Orthodox Christian on an Orthodox Christian platform.
This leads us into how Orthodox Christianity and the early Church Fathers have impacted him, how he has implemented some practices from early Christianity to enrich the worship life of his own church, and what it's been like to touch "multiple Christianities."
Lastly Pastor Mike shares what his pastoral role is like being "the new guy" at an established church with over 200 years of history—and the challenges and joys that come with it.

What's up wonderful people, we hope y'all are well, happy and healthy!
Did you dig the last episode? We hope so, because this episode is almost like part 2 of the last one. You know how sometimes you hear an episode of something and it leaves you wanting more? Well we got you covered. Back in December of 2021 Jamey sat down (again) with Elissa Bjeletich Davis on her podcast Everyday Orthodox (see last episodes show notes to see what the show is about) and catch up and discuss recent developments in his life.
They kick it off by talking about the backstory of how Jamey met his wife. He shares the incredible story of his wife's journey into her faith and how they met and how they are bringing two cultures together to make something beautiful. One of those beautiful things is their son. Jamey gives a glimpse into how he transitioned from a single man to a husband and father.
Next they discuss his other podcast "Bad Books Of The Bible" where Elissa and Jamey have wonderful dialogue about the origins of the show, the content, co-host (shouts to Joel Miller!) and the purpose of the show.
Everyday Orthodox is a live call in show so you get to hear Jamey getting put on the spot by a few callers. Definitely worth there listen.
Be sure to look out for the new Royal Ruckus single "Recording In Progress". Video dropping November 19th!

Greetings family! We hope y'all are living good!!
On this episode we run an interview Jamey did on Everyday Orthodox, hosted by Elissa Bjeletich Davis, a show about regular people and their journey into the Orthodox Christian faith. Some are creatives, some are clergy, and many are regular people sharing their story.
Jamey was in Austin at this time for the release party of Unexpected Joy and was able to swing by her studio and discuss Jamey's journey to Orthodox Christianity from evangelical Christianity, as well as his family's background in Mormonism—and how church history played a part in his journey.
They also get into Jamey's experience in the recording industry, specifically the "Christian" music scene. They delve into the identity crisis of Christian musicians and getting pigeonholed.
The last part of the show is the two of them discussing the Unexpected Joy EP, what the creative process was like and the inspiration for the songs. As is typical on the show this episode is deep, yet fun at the same time. Hope y'all dig it!!
Peace!!

Yo, yo!
What's up good people of planet earth!? We got another RARE conversation episode, and this one is super fresh. Before Cookbook started Felipes Garage with Murs and the newest iteration with King, E. Green, Adonis, and Nesto, and the short lived reintroduction of the reformed Really Tho!?! podcast, he had a show called Stereo-Types—named after the first Cook & Uno album.
Well this was an episode where Cook invited Jamey (aka Chunjay, aka Mr. Royal Ruckus) to talk about cussing in hip-hop songs. They discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of the "clean version" of a song.
Cook and Jamey share stories about growing up and navigating being young Hip-Hop heads, trying to listen to their music in Christian households, and how they maintained their love for the art and did what they had to do to listen to those raps! Tune in and turn it up!

Welcome good people we hope you're doing well! We're back atcha with a beautiful conversation with Rick Lee James. He's a worship music leader, singer, and songwriter, with his first album coming out in 1997. He's also a speaker, author, and host of the podcasts "Voices in My Head" and "Welcome to the Neighborhood: A Mr. Rogers Tribute Podcast," and most recently—a hospital chaplain.
"It's how I make sense of the world."
Rick discusses with us the impact of music on his life and shares with us the beginnings of him playing music, the plethora of instruments he plays, and how his faith impacts his songwriting process.
"We should have music about divorce and drug abuse. Sometimes Christian Music feels so inauthentic."
We discuss the crossroads of faith and music, and the tension of being real and sharing your faith in the world and not sounding cliché.
Lastly we move into some of his newer projects, including recording an unreleased Rich Mullins song, how he started the Mr. Rogers Say twitter account, as well as his latest song "As I Walk These Halls."
"You're here to witness to these people."
We discuss the lyrical inspiration of his latest single and how being a hospital chaplain has effected him.
And of course we finish up the convo with a discussion about Mister Rogers, his impact on our lives, and the world. Rick shares with us how Mr. Rogers helped him in a dark time in his life as well as his chaplaincy and life.
Thank you all for tuning in!!
