Show overview
BUILDING the Good Life with John Hope Bryant has been publishing since 2021, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 23 episodes. That works out to roughly 10 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 1 min and 52 min — with run-times ranging widely across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language Business show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 3.2 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2022, with 19 episodes published. Published by iHeartPodcasts.
From the publisher
The Podcast will showcase Bryant’s unique interview style for a series of intimate, unscripted conversations with some of the world’s most extraordinary people. The show is all about the magic of aspiration, inspiration, growing and maximizing human potential. Bryant’s wide-ranging orbit of influential leaders will use the power of their “up from nothing” stories to help listeners find their own “inner capital”. Each episode will be prefaced by an inspired “straight talk” from me that will frame out the featured guest conversation, and conclude with a personal call for listeners to go BUILD.

Anybody telling you that they're a millionaire probably is not. If they're telling you a billionaire, they definitely aren't. Billionaires don't talk about their money.
