  • MOUNTAINS GONE GOOD
    Oct 22 2025
    Brad Singer sees himself as just another average guy (his words, not ours). Just another average guy who has climbed Mt. Everest and Mt. Kilimanjaro, hiked the Grand Canyon, rim to rim, multiple times and has swam out to Alcatraz Island and back. Did we mention he's not in his 30s? Or his 40s? Or even his 50s? Brad is a good reminder it's never too late, we are never too old, and yes, my good friends, we still have time to go on some adventures. If you've been waiting for your sign to go for it, look no further than this oh-so-good episode to inspire and uplift you. _______________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

  • GUARDIAN ANGEL GONE GOOD
    Oct 15 2025
    Anita Harwood needs our help finding a man named Marty who helped her on that fateful day of September 11th, 2001. This is one woman's good journey, traveling from the UK to the United States to attend a Michael Jackson concert, only to find herself in the middle of New York City on the morning when everything changed. It's also the story of kindness, specifically the kindness of one stranger who said yes when 18 year old Anita and her best friend needed it most. We found this story on Upworthy's Instagram page and reached out to Anita to see if she might want to come on World Gone Good, tell her story, and see if you, our good audience, might be able to help out in finding the missing Marty. If 9/11 taught us anything, it is this: good or bad, we are all in this together. Give a listen to Anita to see if you might be the person who helps her locate this stranger to give him the hug and thank you she's been waiting over 24 years to give him. _____________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

  • SOUND JOURNEY GONE GOOD
    Aug 13 2025
    Izumi "Asura" Serra is a healer, a teacher, a singer, and a sound journey-ist (it's a word because I said it's a word). Through her bowls and bells, gongs and drums, and yes, even her own voice, she channels emotion, compassion, and rejuvenation. In this good episode, she shares her life from growing up in Japan to coming to the United States, becoming a teacher of young children, and how it all led her to rediscover her passion for music - and yes, sound itself. Through her company, Music of the Spheres, she provides a safe and nurturing space where one can connect with your body, mind, and spirit. Her classes and workshops empower anyone to embrace joy and take charge of creating the life they are truly meant to live. This episode also features a sound journey for you to take part in as Asura plays just for us. Who's up for a sound journey? It's gonna be a good one. ____________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

  • GRANDMA STAND GONE GOOD
    Aug 6 2025
    Mike Matthews had an incredibly close relationship with his Grandma Eileen. So when one of his co-workers needed some support and a sounding board, he gave them her phone number and said, 'Give my grandma a call. Trust me.' And after this co-worker did call Grandma Eileen - and had a great experience - Mike came to the realization that he needed to share her with the world. That's how - and when - Grandma Stand first started. The concept is simple: A purple stand where a Grandma waits, take a seat, ask the jumping off question and the rest just flows naturally. This is a redefining of the phrase, 'generational wealth,' where both parties who participate in these conversations experience the riches of what each other has to offer. We've been focusing on community and what Mike and Grandma Stand are doing truly nails this. Who knows - maybe you have something you'll want to ask OR maybe you'll be the grandma with all (or some) of the answers. __________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

    Jul 30 2025
    Keaver Brenai is mentoring with a mic - using her own talent and own journey to help bring up the next generation of creatives surrounding her. She’s a voice-over artist, a singer, an author, and most notably, Keaver is consistently happy right where she is. And when she’s not? She pivots and finds her way back or forward to that happy place we all deserve to live in.

You've heard her voice everywhere from Blue Cross to Cartoon Network, Nike to NBC's The Good Place - now get to know the inspiring person behind it. ________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

  • COMFORTOLOGIST GONE GOOD
    Jul 23 2025
    Dr. Steven Drabek draws from his four-decade career and personal journey as a cancer survivor and chronic pain patient to offer his unique perspective. He’s board-certified in family medicine and hospice and palliative medicine with an advocacy for better end-of-life care, a passion for hospice and symptom management through assessment and empathetic communication. Dr. Drabek advocates for self-determination and personal choice to help his patients set realistic goals for their own care. He’s taken all this experience and written it down in his groundbreaking memoir, “The Comfortologist: A Physician’s Empathetic Perspective on Compassion, Caring and Pain Relief,” which has achieved #1 bestseller status on Amazon. We talk about everything from how his own health struggles helped him see his patients in a whole new light to why the God he believes in has an incredible sense of humor. This is the good episode where science meets spirituality. _______________________________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.
