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 142
The Old Dogs ramble about living to 100 - is it a good idea? We ponder some of the bad practices we employ to keep dentists in business. We celebrate the inventor of the flat-bottomed paper bag. We view with alarm the rise of misinformation on the internet... or do we? We alert you to an insurance scam involving pricey cars... and bogus bears. And we reflect on the upside and downside of living to be 100. The Old Dogs Conversation is with human dynamo Vanessa Gilmore - a retired federal judge who is anything but retired.
