Episode 23 We're Good Partners share in Our Take

A season finale worth leaning in for. The We’re Good team returns to the studio to “peel back the curtain” on a first season that didn’t just tell stories—it connected dots you won’t find on any homepage. Which partnership is quietly cracking the affordable-housing puzzle? Which late-night knock led a woman to safety because a neighbor made a call. And who is the young man whose independent life—and cookies—came from a program you thought you already knew?

Threaded throughout this episode is the gratitude for knowing more about life-changing work happening right in our communities. You’ll hear about a veteran coaxed from decades in the woods into housing, a bakery with national reach that trains veterans, caregivers, and spouses for entrepreneurship, and the surprising data point that reframes the workforce conversation around military families. Expect “Wait, what?” moments as familiar names—Horton’s Kids, Compass Pro Bono, Best Buddies —reveal some unexpected and shared missions in ways that feel less like coincidence and more like true connections.

The curtain lifts further. Studio lights. Studio guests who loosen into laughter once cameras cut. A production sprint that turned an idea into not just a show, but a movement—one that refuses to accept the odds stacked against new podcasts. The trio admits what they’ve learned and that there’s still more (“every day is a day in the classroom”), what listeners told them (“we needed this”), and the quiet “secret sauce”: work hard, have fun, and build community—on-air and off.
