Show Notes
A very special Season 2 finale episode with writer, director, and musician Romeo Candido who produced many of the MuchMusic and MuchMoreMusic interviews that Matt recalls here each week. Romeo talks to Matt about joining the cast of Miss Saigon as a 19 year old, his Newfoundland roots by way of the Philippines, and how despite making feature films and writing, directing, and producing countless hours of television over the past 20 plus years....music is his truest form of expression. Matt and Romeo also reminisce about that time in Nashville they sang around a campfire with 80's pop star Tiffany. Follow Good Things with Matt Wells on Instagram. Follow Matt Wells on Instagram. Produced by Greater Hood Productions. Theme Song: "Good Things" by Walter Schreifels as performed by Rival Schools.

After a two-month break, I come back to something uncomfortable: maybe the thing getting in the way… is me. Inspired by Radiohead and Walt Whitman, this episode is about self-pressure, identity, and finding something sacred in the mundane - even in a moment at the airport.
A phrase we have all heard and have all used - "can't complain". But let's be honest... most days we could. With a little lyrical help from a song by the same name, and some words written by Cameron Crowe, Matt dives into that space between what we say... and how we truly feel. What a sucker!
What if art isn’t about being seen, celebrated, or paid... but about staying human? In this episode, inspired by Patty Griffin, Matt explores creativity not as achievement, but as survival. When life feels too heavy, you don’t need answers… sometimes you just need to make a pie.
Inspired by a subway station busker, this episode circles the idea of being lonely when we're surrounded by people and the fear of not being seen... even when there are eyes everywhere.

In the first episode of 2026, Matt reflects on a Rolling Stones lyric that’s aged into wisdom, a frozen New Year’s morning that didn’t go as planned, and the quiet shift from discipline to discernment.
