Summary
On this episode of the BobbyCast, Bobby sits down with singer/songwriter, Sam Williams. Sam is the son of country legend Hank Williams Jr. and brought up the time his dad walked out on Bobby mid-interview a few years ago going viral. Sam also talked about having to live up to his dad and grandfather's legacy and why he's happy that he has a different name. Plus, Dolly Parton is on a song of his called "Happy All The Time", so Bobby asked how he made that happen, and Sam discussed the misinterpretation that people have about him having family money.
