Jacoby Shaddix | Dumb Blonde Podcast

Bunnie sits down with Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix for a raw, unfiltered deep dive into addiction, faith, fame, and fighting to stay alive in the music industry. From childhood trauma and getting sober to breaking the one-hit-wonder curse and selling millions of records, Jacoby shares the real story behind the chaos. They talk mental health, marriage, fatherhood, band evolution, and how “Scars” went from being rejected by a producer to becoming one of the biggest rock crossovers ever. Plus, the Ozzfest moment that humbled him, the gratitude that keeps him grounded, and why he’s still hungry after all these years. =========================== Bunnie Xo, also known as Bunnie DeFord, is a dynamic media personality, entrepreneur, and creator who has carved out a distinct space in the entertainment industry.
