Maddox Batson is 15, doesn’t have a driver’s license, and is somehow getting his first passport so he can head out on a world tour. In this episode, he talks about bringing his entire family on the road, growing up on bluegrass with a mandolin-master dad, and how being homeschooled actually fits with a life of airports, soundchecks, and hotel rooms. He and Bobby get into what a “normal day” looks like for him, why he begged to get off the screen and onto real stages, and how it feels now to hear crowds singing every word back. Maddox also opens up about the hobbies that keep him grounded such as collecting watches, playing golf, hunting and whether he still feels like a kid when most of his friends are just starting high school. He shares his love for artists like John Mayer, Keith Whitley, George Jones, and Ed Sheeran, his “pinch me” Opry moment, and the story of averaging 35 points a game in basketball before a knee injury changed everything. Plus, there’s a funny clip about being accused of being a ball hog, some “uncountry” talk, and what it’s like playing shows in Nashville and beyond at 15 years old.
