The Texas Optimism Project and Frost Bank are proud to share episode 18 of Good Newscast, a podcast about good news in the world.

Often behind big ideas are a series of small ones. Owen, Andrew and Arely talk about the simplicity of good deeds that can lead to positive change. Stories about a courageous activist, a haircut for the homeless and taking the #elpasochallenge show us how optimism reverberates profoundly from seemingly small deeds.

Optimism can change lives, but it doesn’t always come easy. Join hosts Owen Egerton, Arely Silva and Andrew Roush as they dive headfirst into exploring the power of perspective and unlikely stories of optimism. New episodes are published every other week.
