Everyone Has A Story - Hosted by Kam and Cody

Everyone Has a Story: The Reason Behind the Mic

For the first time, Kam Spackman and Cody Traveller sit down and open up about the real reason behind starting the “Everyone Has a Story” podcast. Before all the guests, before all the conversations, before the cameras and microphones, there were two people who simply wanted to create something real for their community. This episode is raw, personal, emotional, and honest. Kam and Cody talk about the experiences that shaped them into who they are today, including adoption, losing children, grief, anxiety, stress, faith, family, and the everyday struggles that so many people silently carry. They open up about the moments that broke them, the moments that built them, and why meaningful conversations matter now more than ever. This podcast was never created just for views or entertainment. It was built to remind people that they are not alone. In a world where everyone seems to hide behind highlights and filters, “Everyone Has a Story” was created to give people a place to be real, vulnerable, and understood. This episode explains the mission behind the podcast, where it all started, what it means to Kam and Cody personally, and where they hope it goes in the future. More than anything, it’s a reminder that every single person you pass in life is fighting battles, carrying memories, overcoming hardships, and living a story worth hearing. It’s finally time for the community to truly get to know the people behind the microphones. Welcome to “Everyone Has a Story.”

From Rock Bottom to Running Tattles | Trisha Montes’ Story of Grit, Family & Small-Town Success

What does it really take to build a successful restaurant in a small town? This week on Everyone Has A Story, we sit down with Trisha Montes, co-owner of Tattles, for a conversation that goes way deeper than food. Trisha opens up about the journey that led her and her mom to becoming the sole owners of one of the most talked about restaurants in town. She shares how the opportunity to purchase Tattles even came about, the pressure and uncertainty of taking that leap, and what it has truly taken behind the scenes to grow the business into what it is today. But this episode is more than just a business story. Before Tattles was ever an idea, Trisha went through some incredibly difficult seasons in life. In this conversation, she gets vulnerable about the struggles, setbacks, and personal battles that shaped who she is today. We talk about resilience, anxiety, hard decisions, long hours, and what it feels like to carry the weight of a business while still trying to be there for everyone around you. We also dive into the fun side of things too — the atmosphere at Tattles, what makes it special to the community, some of the customer favorite menu items, and how they’ve expanded and continued to grow over the years. From working in the kitchen, to waiting tables, to handling the pressure that comes with ownership, Trisha is proof that hard work and heart still matter. This one is real, emotional, inspiring, and full of moments that so many people will relate to whether you own a business or not. If you’ve ever wondered what someone might be carrying behind the smile they wear every day, this episode is for you.
