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.
Troubled Past Podcast
Episode 9 "It's Not About Money, It's About Freedom"
I’m not proud of who I used to be — but I’m not afraid to talk about it.
Every week on Troubled Past, I tell my story — the real story. The fights, the failures, the funny moments, and the painful ones, too. From addiction and bad decisions to redemption and rebuilding, nothing’s off limits. I share it all because I believe that honesty inspires change, and that if you hear what I’ve been through, maybe you’ll avoid some of the same mistakes.
This show is for anyone who wants more out of life — more peace, more purpose, more freedom. I bring on guests who’ve been through it too. We talk about struggle, growth, and what it takes to rewrite your story.
My mission? To help others find financial freedom, emotional healing, and the courage to take control of their future, no matter how broken their past might be.
Thanks for listening. I hope this show gives you something real.
