Why Not?
Hosted by Stephen Goodspeed & Summer · EN
Why Not?.. Why Not a Podcast?.. Why Not Now?.. Why Not us?.. Meet Stephen & Summer, the dynamic duo behind Why Not? the podcast that feels like a warm hug from two friends who've been through it all together. Raised in the same small town, Home to the Basketball Hall of Fame, Stephen & Summer's paths converged in the most unexpected of places—the Marine Corps, thousands of miles away from the familiar streets they once called home.Their camaraderie didn’t start right away, but when it started it took off. They discovered shared passions for cinema, TV shows, and the absurdity of navigating adulthood. Picture this: two friends far from their roots, huddled around a makeshift podcasting setup, trading stories of their day-to-day adventures and mishaps.Why Not? is more than just a podcast; it's a ticket to an hour-long escape from the chaos of everyday life. Stephen & Summer bring a refreshing blend of humor, insight, and genuine friendship to the table. Each episode is a lively exploration of the latest movies and shows, sprinkled with anecdotes from their own lives that range from hilarious to heartwarming. But it's not all just banter between the hosts. The podcast's charm lies in the occasional surprise guests—old friends from their shared past, popping in to update listeners on their own journeys. It's a reunion of sorts, a chance to catch up with the folks who shaped the early chapters of Stephen & Summer's lives.So, whether you're looking for a laugh, a dose of nostalgia, or some genuine feel-good vibes, Why Not? has got you covered. Tune in and let Stephen & Summer be your companions on this rollercoaster called a podcast. Because, in the end, life is better when you're sharing it with friends who've been there from the beginning, no matter how far away home may be. What makes Why Not? even more special is that Stephen & Summer are not just podcasters—they're working stiffs, just like many of their listeners. They still put in full-time hours on the job with Summer still being very much active duty in our beloved Corps, juggling the demands of life while passionately growing their podcast. And here's where you come in. They're not just asking for your ears; they're asking for your support. Help them grow by rating & reviewing the podcast wherever you listen to it, mention it on your social media & tag them, and don't be shy about spreading the word through the age-old magic: word of mouth. Because, in the end, this podcast isn't just about Stephen & Summer; it's about a community of listeners who find solace, laughter, and a shared love for life's quirks. Join the journey, and let's make Why Not? more than a podcast—it's a movement, fueled by friendship and the collective joy of escaping the grind, even if just for an hour.
