Troubled Past Podcast
Welcome to The Troubled Past Podcast
Hosted by Jarod "The Rock" Johnson, this is where the skeletons come out of the closet — hard and unapologetic.
Each week, Jarod dives deep into his own wild past, sharing raw, unfiltered stories from the streets, the hustle, and everything in between. But it doesn’t stop there — he brings on guests with equally insane backgrounds to tell the tales most people are too scared to say out loud.
From brushes with the law, cartel connections, underground deals, and close calls — The Troubled Past is your front-row seat to the lives people don’t talk about… but should.
No sugarcoating. No filters. Just truth, grit, and redemption.
🎙️ New episodes every week
💥 Real people. Real stories. Real troubled pasts.

Episode 8: “Drunk Jarod”
Two weeks sober — and for the first time on Troubled Past, Jarod opens up about his personal journey with alcohol. From wild nights and reckless decisions to the pain, shame, and moments of clarity that followed, this episode dives into the raw, unfiltered stories of drinking before the first time he quit… and why he’s done with it now.
But this isn’t just about Jarod — it’s about the people out there who feel stuck, alone, or like they can’t stop. Together, we start the conversation on what real support looks like, what healing really means, and how we can come up with new ways to help others break free from the cycle.
If you’ve ever battled addiction, watched someone you love struggle, or just want to understand the truth behind the bottle — this one’s for you.
