In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we take a look at what’s better—and what’s not—when comparing life then and now.

We discuss how life expectancy has dramatically increased over the decades, the evolution of telephone communication from landlines with no answering machines to today’s always-on cell phones, and the pros and cons of having instant access to nearly unlimited information. We also dive into a modern-day divide: whether we prefer using cash or embracing the tap-and-go system that’s rapidly replacing it.

It’s a thoughtful and often funny conversation about how much has changed in everyday life—and whether all of it actually makes things easier.
