1/13/2026
Bobby and Caitlin finally sit down for a pregnancy Q&A, pulling from the questions they’ve been saving and answering the stuff people actually want to know: what’s surprised them, what’s been tougher than expected, and what they’re most excited (and nervous) about as the due date gets closer. They also get into a surprisingly heated debate: is it a “nursery,” a “baby bedroom,” or are we overthinking this already? Caitlin breaks down how sleep has been going in the third trimester (with the sleep scores to prove it), how acid reflux is changing the day-to-day, and what “no-sleep season” is starting to look like in real time. And yes, they address the big question everyone keeps asking: the baby’s name. They explain why they’re keeping it under wraps and what it’ll take for that secret to slip.

12/26/2025
Sean Ryan stops by after the guys realize they accidentally booked him while trying to track down a different Shawn Ryan leading to a hilarious “wait… who are you?” moment that turns into one of the most memorable conversations we’ve had in a while. Sean talks about what his life looked like when he was homeless, how he kept his head up when things felt stuck, and the small breaks that helped him start climbing out of it. He also breaks down the reality of busking: where he plays, how he draws a crowd, what a “good day” actually pays, and the way street performing teaches you to win people over in seconds. Along the way, we get into the hustle of making just enough money to keep moving, the pride that comes with earning it the hard way, and why being the “wrong” booking ended up being exactly the right conversation.

Chris Lane: Finding Faith in the Detours & Staying Grounded in the Spotlight
12/13/2025
Country artist Chris Lane joins Brooke Taylor on The Upload for a candid, faith-filled conversation about the unexpected injuries, detours, and divine redirection that shaped his life long before music stardom. Chris opens up about tearing his ACL in high school—and again in college—an experience that sidelined his dreams of playing sports but sparked a life-changing relationship with the Lord. What felt like devastation at the time became the quiet space God used to draw him close, heal his heart, and prepare him for a future he couldn’t yet see.
Now a husband, dad, and touring musician, Chris shares honestly about this new season where his time feels “wrecked”—changing diapers at home, performing on the road, and fighting to keep Jesus at the center of it all. He talks about the conviction he feels to carve out time with God, how fatherhood has deepened his understanding of Christ’s love, and how marriage wasn’t even on his radar until he met his wife, Lauren. Their shared faith became the foundation of their relationship—especially significant given Lauren’s upbringing in Portland, one of the least churched major cities in America.
Chris also gets real about navigating fame in an industry that can inflate the ego. He talks about praying for humility, wanting success but not at the cost of his walk with Christ, and the ways God is teaching him patience in every area of life.
🎧 Listen now for an encouraging, down-to-earth conversation about faith, humility, family, and finding God’s purpose in the detours.
