  • Worth Your Time!

    Let me first start off by saying I’m not a fan of podcasts. I find most of them boring with boring subjects. I have a few friends who have podcasts and it’s like pulling teeth to get me to listen to even one episode. I’ve known Scott Merritt for a long time, and I felt I should give it a shot and listen. Boy was I pleasantly surprised. I listened to the episode with Adam Carolla. And quite frankly, I thought… let me give this 10 minutes. I ended up listening to the whole thing from start to fini... more

  • Outstanding inspirational podcast!

    Andy Levine and Scott Merritt do a great job of finding spectacular - and even famous - guests with compelling stories, and asking the questions that make you want more. Production quality is superb, and content is outstanding. I would recommend this podcast to anyone with an interest in hearing inspiring stories from the people who made the leap to find their purpose.

  • Incredibly inspirational and motivating!

    I have been listening to Second Act Stories for a while now, and should’ve left a review sooner. Just listened to the episode with Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, former member of Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers and now working in military defense projects (!!) and it was fascinating. Jeff reminds us that nothing is impossible and it’s never too late to do something else, and to find the connections between your skills and passions. Great content and very helpful advice in every episode.
