The Good Pod

A new season of The Good Pod is here, and with it are some fun new changes. New format, new music, and... A New Host?! GV's very own Community Engagement Manager Jackie Ayo has taken over and is picking up the podcasting baton as she sits down with former podcast host and GV's Operations Director Hunter Van Dam.

Hello there! Welcome to the Good Pod. Goodness Village is an affordable tiny home program in Livermore CA that provides our formerly unhoused neighbors a safe and supportive community to live independently, heal, and thrive!This podcast exists simply to tell the stories from the village. Our vision is to transform the way our community understands homelessness and to bring dignity back to our unhoused brothers and sisters. By sharing the conversations I have with neighbors, staff, volunteers, and community leaders, we hope to paint a fuller picture of the Goodness Village story. Thanks for listening, and welcome to... The Good Pod!
