We Might've Invented a Completely New Podcast Format

Just Davit ·

2026/01/28

This episode of Just Davit isn’t a story, it’s about storytelling itself. I started this podcast to do one thing: tell real stories from my life. No pitch. No angle. No hidden agenda. Just stories, the way people have always told them. But lately I’ve been wondering if that’s the problem. I don’t feel like I’m competing with anyone. I don’t belong to a category. And it feels like the algorithm doesn’t know where to put me. In this episode, I talk about: Why pure storytelling feels rare online The

Tim McGraw Invited Me to Play One-on-One and I Wasn't...

Just Davit ·

2026/01/21

I was working backstage on the Faith Hill & Tim McGraw tour when something happened that still doesn’t feel real… I walked into a massive garage full of tour buses — and there was Tim McGraw, alone, shooting hoops on a full-size basketball court he had set up backstage. Then he looked at me and said: “Hey man… you wanna play?” I froze. I wasn’t supposed to talk to the artists. I wasn’t supposed to stop working. And I definitely wasn’t prepared to play one-on-one with Tim McGraw. But I said yes

The Day a Telephone Pole Fell With Me On It

Just Davit ·

2026/01/07

When I was 18, my boss sent me up a 30-foot telephone pole… and then the pole fell over with me on it. This episode is about the real kind of unsafe work nobody talks about — climbing rotten poles with no safety gear, cutting live triplex, and being thrown into situations where you’re expected to “just do it” even when your gut says you shouldn’t. It doesn’t stop there. I also tell the story of the time my boss made me climb a ladder standing in a swimming pool to change a light bulb — while two

2025/12/10

This week, Davit goes back to his runner days — the era when he shuttled famous artists around for concert venues. But nothing prepared him for the night he had to pick up Alice Cooper… in a family minivan… with a steel crate in the front seat that turned out to be his actual snake. And if that wasn’t wild enough, wait until you hear how Davit’s very-Christian, very-snake-phobic wife reacted when she found out the “Prince of Darkness” and his reptile rode in her seat just hours earlier.

My Manager Wouldn’t Let Me Take a Week Off… So This...

Just Davit ·

2025/12/03

My Manager Wouldn’t Let Me Take a Week Of. So, this week’s episode is exactly what it sounds like. I bought a new house, I’m buried under boxes, my studio looks like a garage sale that lost hope, and in the middle of all that… my manager told me I wasn’t allowed to take a week off. So here I am — exhausted, annoyed, and somehow still laughing — recording a podcast in a half-built studio because Dusty refused to break character and say, “Hey man, take a breath.” In this episode we get into: • Moving

This week, I’m recording in the middle of moving-day chaos — new house, destroyed studio, a prosthetic socket that’s giving me more pain than it has in months, and a whole lot of stubbornness on my part. After losing my foot in 2023, I knew I wanted to keep doing things myself. So yes… I was moving washers and couches and hauling trailers. And for a while, it was going fine — until my socket started failing and the pain hit hard. That meant an emergency trip to the prosthetist right in the middle of

2025/10/08

At 16 years old, I took a simple delivery job at KFC — but one order turned into the scariest moment of my life.

“I dropped the pastor’s wife during a magic trick.” This true magician fail happened at a church youth event after a pool-party gig with flash paper and chaos. A levitation (chair suspension) that worked in rehearsal… until it didn’t—on stage, in front of a room full of kids, with the pastor watching. Before that: a July pool-party show where a fireball launched straight into my tote bag and melted half my props.

When I was 16, I agreed to go scuba diving off the coast of Florida—with zero training, no license, and a canoe as our dive boat. What could go wrong? This wild story takes you through the chaos of strapping on a weight belt for the first time, fighting waves while dragging a canoe full of scuba gear, and realizing way too late that I had no idea what I was doing.
