Barely Famous

Kail sits down with Bobby Jones and his daughter Ari for a raw conversation about growing up with a father who spent time in prison, navigating family struggles, and what healing actually looks like over time. Ari opens up about learning the truth about Bobby’s past, watching her parents work through difficult seasons in their marriage, and how those experiences shaped her own outlook on relationships and life. They also talk about Ari becoming a tattoo artist at 18, dealing with online criticism after a viral post about buying her own car, financial discipline, parenting through mistakes, and why honest conversations have become the foundation of their family dynamic. From generational trauma to personal growth and choosing each other through hard times, this episode is honest, emotional, and full of perspective.

This week on Barely Famous, Kail sits down with Codi and Tabby, the women behind Agape, Delaware’s piercing-only studio, for a conversation that goes far beyond body jewelry. Codi and Tabby open up about building a business from the ground up, creating a safe space in an industry that has not always felt welcoming, and what it really takes to work, love, and grow together. From their unexpected love story to navigating faith, sexuality, entrepreneurship, and the pressure of being women in business, this episode is honest, funny, emotional, and deeply thought-provoking. They also get into what Agape means, how faith shaped Codi's journey, the conversations that challenged both of them, and why creating an experience matters just as much as offering a service. It’s a conversation about love, purpose, community, identity, and choosing to keep showing up even when the path does not look the way people expect.

TW: This episode discusses addiction, PTSD, suicide, combat trauma, and psychedelic treatment. Part two of Jimmy’s story goes even deeper as he opens up about relapse, recovery, suicidal ideation, and the moment that pushed him toward a completely different path. Jimmy shares how Not Lucky evolved from a charter business into a nonprofit dedicated to helping veterans and active duty service members find purpose, connection, and real support on the water. Kail and Jimmy talk about addiction, Ibogaine, mental health care for veterans, the failures of the VA system, shark tagging, conservation, and why Not Lucky is about so much more than fishing. From near-death moments to building a mission that now helps other veterans, Jimmy’s story is raw, intense, and ultimately rooted in survival, faith, and purpose.

Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of war, PTSD, suicide, addiction, self-harm, and graphic violence. Jimmy from Knot Lucky joins Barely Famous in part 1 of this conversation for a raw and emotional conversation about life before, during, and after serving as an Army Ranger in Iraq and Afghanistan. What starts as a discussion about his nonprofit taking veterans offshore fishing quickly turns into a deeper conversation about combat, PTSD, addiction, brain injuries, and surviving some of the darkest moments of his life. Jimmy shares how fishing became the one thing that kept him going, eventually leading him to create Knit Lucky a nonprofit helping veterans heal while honoring fallen service members through great white shark tagging and research. The episode also dives into propaganda, media narratives, misconceptions about war, and the realities many veterans face after coming home.

Dr. Tina Ho joins Barely Famous to finally break down the facial plastic surgery Kail had in August, including her deep plane facelift and structural deep neck lift. Kail opens up about why chin lipo and Kybella were not the right options for her, what recovery really looked like, and the lower lip weakness that made the healing process even more emotional. They also discuss jawline contouring, fillers, GLP-1 weight loss, medical-grade skincare, choosing the right surgeon, and why natural-looking results take time, trust, and realistic expectations.
