01 The show

Good conversations begin before the microphone turns on.

Not an interview.
A real seat at the table.

Some people are known by everyone. Some by almost no one. And some turn out to be nothing like the story we thought we knew.

The Good Chairs makes room for each of them. Bill Boyer sits down with guests whose experiences, struggles, defining moments, and unexpected turns deserve more than a sound bite.

Every conversation is made to watch or listen.
02 Who takes a seat

Three kinds of guest.
One honest conversation.

The title may be familiar. The face may be completely new. Either way, the story is the reason they’re here.

01
The person

everybody knows

A recognizable local leader or personality whose conversation reveals a side of them the public rarely sees.

02
The person

nobody knows

Someone who has lived an extraordinary life without ever receiving public recognition.

03
The person

you thought you knew

A familiar figure whose personal experiences, struggles, and defining moments are more interesting than their public accomplishments.

03 Watch or listen

See the room.
Hear every word.

The Good Chairs will be available as both a video show and an audio podcast. Choose the screen, the speakers, or the drive home.

Bill Boyer

Broadcasting has been a part of Bill Boyer’s life for 34 years, and he wouldn’t have it any other way. For more than 15 years, he’s been part of the Nebraska Rural Radio Association, currently serving as Market Manager in Scottsbluff and Chairman of the Nebraska Broadcasters Association Board of Directors.

A Nebraska native, Bill was born in Mullen, attended school in Alliance, and graduated from Bridgeport High School. He earned his journalism degree from UNK in 2001 and even took a detour into local government, serving as Bridgeport’s City Administrator from 2008 to 2011.

Bill believes strongly in giving back, with involvement in United Way, the American Red Cross, and Rotary. When he’s not working, you’ll likely find him on a golf course, watching Nebraska sports, or keeping an eye on the weather.

Bill and his wife, Reagan, have been married 25 years and have a son, Seth.
