Nichole Perkins wants people to stop feeling bad about feeling good, and This Is Good For You lets you know you are never alone in what you like. Every episode, Nichole explores something that people love—whether it’s needlepoint, watching bad movies with friends, or cowgirl exercise classes—and asks experts and devotees why it makes them happy. She ends each show with an Indulgence: a recommendation listeners can enjoy with no remorse. There’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure when you learn to love it freely! To find out what’s good for you, listen to new episodes every other Friday.
One of the things I’ve noticed as my friends and I get older is how much we try to make our homes places of peace. For many, that means filling it up with greenery, which is hard with my history of over- and then under-watering my plants. I had to ask my friend Donwill how he cares for his house jungle and how he’s, unexpectedly, Plant Dad of the Year.
Indulgence
Nichole and Donwill recommend silence!
