    EDINBURGH GONE GOOD - PART 1

    The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is once again coming this August. This is the place where over 3,800 individual shows - yes - 3 thousand, 800 of them - will take place during the full month in what is billed as a global arts celebration. Last year the Fringe - as the locals call it - featured 53,942 performances over 301 venues with participants from 68 countries with 2.6 million in ticket sales. How good is that? So good that we are diving in to find out all about it with four of the upcoming performers: Liz Coin, Max Davidson, Brendon Lemon and Kristina Libby. We are talking everything from one-person shows to stand-up comedy to magic and illusionists, what it means to them to take part in this festival, and how the arts bring us all together in the best way possible. Grab your seat, the lights are dimming, as the festival is about to begin... This episode is Part 1 of 3 in a series. _______________________ Sunday July 12 - grab your seat to SLIDESHOW: IN COLOR! now playing in London.

    TAYLOR DAYNE GONE GOOD

    Taylor Dayne brings her good to our 250th episode. She's a Grammy-nominated, American Music Award-winning vocal powerhouse who has conquered the Top 20 on the Billboard Top 100 chart 17 times landing 7 times in the Top 10.Taylor's unbelievable career ascent has taken her from sold-out rock concerts to starring on Broadway in Aida to the semi-finals of the Masked Singer. In 2022, an unexpected diagnosis of colon cancer did little to slow her down and made her an advocate for promoting early detection and regular cancer screenings. We talk with Taylor about what drives her, how she chooses her songs (or if they choose her), and exactly what was that whole thing with Tig Notaro even about. This is a reunion of sorts as World Gone Good host, Steve, originally met Taylor at a mutual friend's last-minute cocktail hour in Santa Barbara. Funny how things work out, ain't it? Get ready to 'Tell It To My Heart' with the amazing Taylor Dayne here with us to celebrate episode #250! __________________ June 13 and July 12 - grab your seat to SLIDESHOW: IN COLOR! now playing in London.

    BE LIKE ELLIE GONE GOOD

    Josh and Carly Berg suffered the greatest loss a parent can go through, the loss of their child. At 6 years old, their daughter Ellie passed away in a freak accident, simply playing in their backyard. These conversations are never easy and we've had them and explored them on World Gone Good previously. They remain important because it's what we do as human beings after, that's where the good can be found. And that's why Josh and Carly created the Be Like Ellie Foundation to honor their child. The mission is simple (and sometimes simple is the best way, isn't it?): Spread love, be kind, play music - which is pretty much how their daughter lived her life. The Be Like Ellie Foundation encourages and supports simple acts of kindness to create a positive change. Through outreach programs, volunteer initiatives, and educational campaigns, this organization strive to empower individuals and groups to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others to build a more caring and inclusive society where every act of kindness ripples outward to create a brighter, more compassionate world for all. Isn't that exactly what we all need more of in this moment we are collectively all in together? ________________________ June 13 and July 12 - grab your seat to SLIDESHOW: IN COLOR! now playing in London.

    SAVIA ROCKS GONE GOOD

    Savia Rocks is a singer/songwriter, poet, photographer, podcast producer/host who loves people on every level especially those who share their story with her. Her podcast Us People is all about that. It's where people can share their truth, honest and real, the good, bad and ugly. Us People highlights the underserved voices who need a place to amplify themselves and in turn provides a place for a listener to connect. Our 2026 slogan/motto/anthem is: SAY YES. When we reached out to Savia to come on World Gone Good, she said yes without hesitation. She repeated with a second yes when Steve asked her to join Slideshow's UK debut on Sunday, May 3rd in London. So this episode provides you our good listener with another guest who is here not just to uplift but also inspire you to say yes to whatever your life question is. It's also an important opportunity for us to explain to you how London is not measured in streets or miles or kilometers but rather in coffee shops. Press play for more on all this good stuff... ___________________________ June 13 and July 12 - grab your seat to SLIDESHOW: IN COLOR! now playing in London.
