50Talk Episode 113

Welcome back to 50Talk. This is Episode 113 and Cathy and I are glad you all could join us again this week. We have a lot to talk about so let's get into it. We had our annual Family Reunion last week and would like to say it was a success. After being a part of the planning committee over the last year it was a great event. We had tons of family and food and great conversations. We had also went camping with all the Johnson Crew earlier in that same week, so we were very busy the entire week leading up to the family reunion. 

I forgot to do this in the show soI will add it know. "Let's go into the mind of Cathy" and learn some things. We want to tell you all what it's like waking up on a Monday morning as retired people. While traveling back and forth from camping we had a revelation after being together for almost 30 years. This is crazy! You do know that your body is a vessel, right? When your born is that vessel empty? When you die what happens to that vessel or capsule as Cathy also calls it? Also in a relationship who makes who old? is it the older person in the relationship who is obviously aging or is it something else?

The Democratic National Convention starts this week and I for one am ready to see a real representation of America unlike the Republican National Convention. I'm anxious to see who the speakers will be and even some of the entertainment. Most of all I want to hear the uplifting message the party will bring to us. Hearing President Obama and Michelle speak should be uplifting. I can't wait to hear Kamala's acceptance speak. This is going to be an historical week and I can't wait. 

Donald Trump said some crazy shit this past week. Can you freaking believe that? He actually spoke in front of real people and told them that the Presidential Medal of Freedom is more important than the Medal of Honor. As a Marine Corps veteran I am insulted. Any Veteran of any branch of service should be insulted by this man's words. Just another "stupid comment" to the long list of other "stupid comments" this man continues to say. 

There was an interview on the Platform X and t was a complete mess. Elon Musk and Donald Trump together equals shit! Did someone forget to give Donnie his false teeth to put in or was he drunk or high or was it because it was past his bedtime and his words were slurring? Any way you put it, it was a terrible interview and an even worse reflection on our aging former President. He does love the Time magazines cover picture of Kamala though. He said she looked like a beautiful movie star and even a former 1st Lady named Melania Trump. Can you freaking believe this guy said that? Who is the "Old man running for President now"?

Thank you all for joining us this week. We had a great time. Don't forget to go to vote.org or vote.gov to check the status of your voter registration or to get registered. See you all next week. Thanks for listening.
