Andy Seiler: Telling Nebraska's Stories, One Person at a Time

Andy Seiler never set out to become a storyteller. He arrived in Lincoln from Texas to attend Union College, briefly chased a dream of flying search-and-rescue helicopters, taught English in Prague, and found his real calling almost by accident — re-editing a lost Valentine's video for his brother and realizing he'd found the thing he loved to do.Today, Andy is the founder of the Good Life Network, a local entertainment platform built on a simple but radical idea: that the best stories in Nebraska are about the people who live here. In this conversation with hosts Randy Bretz and Dr. Marilyn S. Moore, Andy talks about building a "local Netflix," what he's learned listening to people from behind the camera, and why coming home to Lincoln felt like the right decision for his family.From copper-mug makers in O'Neill to a bakery in Cortland run by a psychiatrist, Andy shares the stories that have stayed with him — and makes the case that amplifying what makes a place great means starting with its people.Recorded inside the roasting room at The Coffee Roaster in Lincoln, Nebraska.
