After two decades producing some of television’s biggest reality hits — America’s Got Talent, Jersey Shore, Joe Millionaire, Chrisley Knows Best — I learned something simple but profound: the best stories aren’t about fame, they’re about why. Why people dream. Why they fall. Why they get back up. That’s where the real story lives.
When the world shut down and Hollywood began to unravel, I followed love and landed in Bentonville, Arkansas — a small town that changed everything I thought I knew about community. What I found here was a place built on connection, creativity, and purpose. From the world-class art of Crystal Bridges and The Momentary, to mountain bike trails that wind through the Ozarks, to neighbors who still wave from their porches — Bentonville has become my favorite place in America.
Now, GoodTimes is where I chase that same why through the voices of the people building this new frontier — chefs, founders, artists, and dreamers who remind us that success isn’t about spotlight, it’s about story.
Because when you understand why people do what they do, you don’t just tell a story — you feel it.

Josh Kyles | Worlds first ever Bike-able building | Ledger Bentonville
This week on The GoodTimes Show with Damon Epps, we’re sitting down with the guy who literally built a building you can ride a bike up. No joke. Josh Kyles, a developer, innovator, and lowkey urban visionary. He is the brain behind The Ledger in Bentonville, Arkansas: the world’s first bikeable building and one of the coolest workspaces you’ve probably never heard of… until now.
The Ledger isn’t just an office building. It’s 230,000 square feet of pure vibe, coworking, retail, events, and office space all smashed together in the heart of downtown Bentonville. Think showers for cyclists, rooftop views, and enough flex space to make your startup feel like a Fortune 500.
Josh saw that the office grind was changing and people want purpose, not just cubicles. So he built something different. Something better. Something people actually want to show up to. We dive into his story, how he pulled it off, and what it takes to build something iconic (and extremely rideable) .
