Ready for some good news?
The Yinz* Are Good podcast is on a mission to share the good news that's going on out there and celebrate the good people who are making it happen. As we all know, tv news and social media don't often share positive news with us - the stories of people who are helping those in our communities, doing good deeds, making their neighbors smile - and Yinz Are Good is here to change that.
Episodes include interviews with folks - be it individuals, groups, or organizations - who are helping those in need in our communities, providing hope, lending support, lifting people up...you get the idea. Host Tressa Glover also asks listeners to share their own stories of acts of kindness and notes of gratitude for others in their lives.
Tressa started the podcast in 2020 with the aim of getting good news out there, connecting us all with each other through our stories, and inspiring us to help those in our communities. She is a firm believer that we are all a lot more alike than we are different and we only truly learn this by sharing our stories and experiences with each other.
Our episodes also include Name That Neighborhood and In Case Yinz Missed It segments. Name That Neighborhood is our Pittsburgh-fun-fact trivia segment that focuses on the history of specific neighborhoods in the Pittsburgh area. For In Case Yinz Missed It, we share good news headlines and stories from several weeks or months ago, in case yinz missed them the first time around.
*Yinz = Pittsburgh's version of Y'all
