EP. 14 – The Five S’s of Survival | Season One Finale | Louder Than My Demons
This is Episode 14 — the Season One finale of Louder Than My Demons.
Season One was about survival.
About staying upright.
About not disappearing when life fell apart.
In this episode, I reflect on what it took to survive and build something real in just six months — through sobriety, discipline, loss, rebuilding, and the Five S’s that carried me through:
Sobriety. Spirituality. Self-Care. Strength. Songwriting.
I also close the season with a personal Guitar Lounge / Beyond the Songs moment featuring Fall to Pieces by Velvet Revolver — a song that helped me process loss, love, and staying sober.
Thank you to everyone who listened, supported, and stayed.
Season Two is coming — with new weekly segments like Outlaw Logic, monthly R.E.D. 22 episodes focused on veterans, and new Demon Cuts twice a month.
This wasn’t about perfection.
It was about survival.
— Jozey
EP. 13 — Survival | Discipline, Clarity & Staying Upright | Louder Than My Demons
EP. 13 — Survival
This episode is about survival — nothing more, nothing less.
No polish.
No performance.
Just staying upright when things get heavy and continuing to move forward.
This is a special, limited episode of Louder Than My Demons, recorded without a script and without a filter. It’s about discipline, clarity, and what it actually takes to keep going when motivation runs out.
Season One is coming to a close.
Next week, we release the Season One Finale — a full reckoning of what was built, what was learned, and what comes next.
Season Two of Louder Than My Demons begins February 27th, introducing:
Outlaw Logic — a new weekly short-form message built around discipline and action
RED 22 — a monthly episode on the 22nd, spotlighting veteran issues and suicide awareness
Demon Cuts — continuing twice a month
Same mission.
Stronger footing.
Thanks for being here.
EP. 12 — The Outlaw King: David | Discipline, Faith & the Warrior’s Path | Louder Than My Demons
This year, the story of David stopped feeling like scripture and started feeling like survival.
In this episode of Louder Than My Demons, I look at David not as a polished hero, but as what he really was — a shepherd, a warrior, an outlaw, a king… and a man who fell hard and kept going.
David didn’t rise because he was perfect.
He rose because he learned discipline in obscurity, restraint under pressure, and humility after failure.
We walk through the real arc of David’s life — the fields, the fight, the caves, the crown, and the consequences — and I break it down through the Five S’s that have carried me through my own rebuilding:
• Sobriety — clarity over numbness
• Spirituality — honest faith, not performance
• Self-Care — training the body to steady the mind
• Strength — consistency over rage
• Songwriting — turning chaos into something that survives
This episode isn’t about being holier than anyone else.
It’s about being honest.
About learning how to stand again after the fall.
About becoming an outlaw when the system breaks you — and a king when you stop breaking yourself.
🎸 Beyond the Song:
I reflect on “40” by U2, a modern psalm rooted in David’s words, and why it resonated so deeply during a year of rebuilding.
If you’ve ever felt overlooked, exposed, or unsure of who you are after everything changed — this one’s for you.
EP. 11- Rebuild the Man | Discipline, Sobriety & the Rise Forward | Louder Than My Demons
Rebuilding your life isn’t about crawling out of a hole.
It’s about stepping back into the arena with your fists up.
In Episode 11 of Louder Than My Demons, Jozey dives into what it really means to rebuild the man — physically, mentally, spiritually, and creatively.
This episode covers:
Reclaiming confidence and discipline
Training harder and living cleaner
Being ready for connection again
Pushing music and creativity to the next level
Protecting sobriety at all costs
A live acoustic performance of “Sin City Outlaw”
If you’re in the middle of your own rebuild, this one’s for you.
We recover loud.
Louder than our demons.

Jimmy Page – Outrider: The Rebirth of a Legend | Demon Cuts
Jimmy Page’s 1988 solo album Outrider wasn’t a comeback — it was a rebirth.
Born from stolen demos, addiction battles, the shadow of Led Zeppelin, and the fire that never left his hands, Page created one of the most underrated albums of his entire career.
In this episode of Demon Cuts, we break down:
🔥 Wasting My Time — John Miles lighting the fuse
🔥 Writes of Winter — the Grammy-nominated instrumental
🔥 The Only One — Page, Plant, and Jason Bonham reunited
🔥 Emerald Eyes — the closest Outrider gets to late-era Zeppelin
🔥 Blues Anthem — Chris Farlowe sounding more Mississippi than British
We also explore:
the stolen demo tapes
the Bonham bloodline
the Page–Plant spark hidden in the ’80s
the Kramer guitar shock
why critics completely missed the brilliance of this record
how Outrider led directly to No Quarter and the Page–Plant revival
This album hits DIFFERENT when you’re rebuilding your life.
Jimmy Page didn’t try to remake Zeppelin — he made a survivor’s record.
If this episode cut you open, share it. Spread it. Pass it to someone who needs the fire.
Mission 22. Stop Soldier Suicide.
We honor every veteran still fighting their battles.

EP. 10: The Edge of the Bottle — My Worst Night & the Fight to Stay Sober
In Episode 10 of Louder Than My Demons, I open up about the hardest night I’ve faced since getting sober.
A full year of living in fight-or-flight finally caught up to me — and for the first time in almost 12 months, I heard the old whisper: “F**k it… I could drink.”
This episode is raw, honest, and filmed exactly the way that night felt — from the panic, to the spiral, to the moment everything shifted.

St. Anger: The Metallica Album That Saved a Band – Demon Cuts Review
Welcome to The Demon Cut — No Polish. No Mercy. Just Truth.
In this episode, Jozey dives deep into Metallica’s 2003 album St. Anger — a record born from chaos, rehab, and rage.
From James Hetfield’s recovery to Bob Rock’s infamous “garage-band” production, St. Anger isn’t just an album — it’s a therapy session with guitars.
🎧 Featuring Truths in the Noise, The Outlaw Verdict, and reflections on Invisible Kid and Sweet Amber, this Demon Cut explores why sometimes the noise is the message.
💬 “You don’t walk out of hell tuned and polished — you crawl out coughing. That’s what this album sounds like.”
