What a wonderful duo! Jody and Stephen’s love for the stories they discuss is charming, sincere, and infectious. One can’t help but be delighted by their delight! They have such a warm and inviting rapport, and I look forward to turning the page again and again…

Delightful!
Never thought a podcast would make me laugh and cry within the same hour - and in all the best ways. Thank you, and keep ‘em coming!
Well-named and welcome podcast!
I am loving these episodes and I really want the hosts to keep them coming! The “good stories” are eclectic but always interesting and revealing of some combination of the good, the true, and the beautiful. I like the interplay between the brother and sister hosts—they have a good mix of complementary approaches and strengths in discussing these stories. Many I already am acquainted with; others are happy discoveries.

Love it!
This podcast gives me the feeling of truly experiencing each of these stories even if haven’t read them yet. It is such a fun and accessible blend of books, myths, history, and even philosophy and I love how many different stories and concepts are linked together in every episode. Their enthusiasm for these stories is contagious as they talk and their love for the stories discussed is tangible. These episodes always make me smile and encourage me both to reflect and read more!

Good Stories
This podcast is a lovely place to become a reader of more thoughtful and inspiring stories. Jody and Stephen are great storytellers and relay just enough of the books to get you interested. A welcome contrast to the well worn and predictable podcast offerings.

Good Stories is awesome!
Great reviews on books I’ve never read but now must! It’s also a great learning tool about things one might not pick up on while reading. Looking forward to many more stories.

Great Divorce greatly intriguing
Really appreciate how you’re able to articulate enough of a story that I haven’t read for many, many years (or in some cases never) that it’s comfortable to follow along, pondering insights and enjoying beauty and humor. Rekindles the desire to reread!

Enjoyable to start, and wonderful second episode that will forever change the way I read stories. Can’t wait to see what’s coming!

A good listen.
Naturally flowing conversations on books and stories. Enjoyable to listen too at work and get ideas on what to read next.

Promising
If Jody and Stephen keep the rapport they have with each other, I think see this turn into an excellent podcast. I look forward to hearing what they have in store.
