Good Trouble!

About Good Trouble!

Information is power - and with King Boston & the Massachusetts Budget & Policy Center’s Good Trouble podcast, our goal is to inform and inspire using the stories of the people fighting the good fight today. Inspired by civil rights leader John Lewis’ words of encouragement, the show will connect with our region’s noisemakers and key stakeholders to learn about their paths to becoming “good troublemakers” and what we can all do to join them. From art as a driver of change and the world of nonprofits, to the inner workings of how our tax dollars are allocated, we will explore with our guests the society we live in, and just exactly what we can do to reach a better tomorrow. Good Trouble is hosted by Gregory Ball, Director of Content & Production at King Boston, and Reginauld Williams, Director of Communications at MassBudget.
