Senior Living Podcast CT/MA
Life after 60 brings new opportunities—and plenty of new questions.
The Senior Living Podcast grew out of Bill Corbett's Saturday morning talk radio show on WDRC, where conversations about aging, retirement, family, and everyday life quickly revealed something important: seniors and the people who love them are looking for practical answers, fresh ideas, and honest conversations about the years ahead.
On each episode, Bill talks with interesting experts, professionals, authors, and people with experiences worth sharing. Topics range from health and wellness, retirement and finances to relationships, downsizing, staying socially connected, finding purpose, helping aging parents, and making the most of life after 60.
Some episodes solve everyday problems. Others introduce fascinating people and ideas. All of them share the same goal: helping seniors—and their families—navigate the years ahead with greater confidence, purpose, and enjoyment.
Born in Connecticut and Massachusetts but created for listeners everywhere, The Senior Living Podcast is about much more than growing older.
It's about continuing to live.
