## Resource

On this episode of Waterproof Records, I sit down with the artist known as Two Feet (Bill Dess) for an intimate, honest, and deeply human conversation. Recorded back at Lazy Pickle Studios, this episode dives far beyond the hits. We talk about Two Feet’s rapid rise after “I Feel Like I’m Drowning” went viral, what it’s really like navigating massive success as a DIY artist, and how that moment changed everything. But the heart of this conversation is about sobriety, mental health, and vulnerability—especially as men in the music world. Bill opens up in a powerful way about where he’s been, what he’s learned, and how choosing honesty can literally change lives. This episode is about music, yes—but it’s also about survival, growth, and reminding people they’re not alone. If you’ve ever found comfort in music during hard times, this one’s for you. Thanks for being here, and if you found this episode through Two Feet—welcome. Stick around. We’re just getting started.— Jacob Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
