New Tricks for Old Dogs
Why are we howling at the moon? In the 60's and 70's our generation led a cultural revolution. Now that we are in our 60's and 70's we see another cultural revolution led by folks like us who refuse to act their age. We may be Old Dogs, but we can still learn New Tricks. This podcast celebrates that revolution. It features offbeat news items, social observations, adventure tips, shameless humor, and interviews with contemporaries who are still engaged with life.

Episode 132
The Old Dogs ramble about mis-information and how hard it is to correct. We follow that with an example of a woman declared dead while living. Our Chief Aging Officer takes us on a trip to her gym. We try to stump you with another What Year Was It? We discover that sleep in fact won’t detoxify your brain. And we unpack some of your grandkids’ current slang. The Old Dogs conversation is with Bridgette Mongeon, sculptor, writer, educator and serious hiker.
