WELL AGED
by Douglas & McIntyre
The Well Aged Podcast, hosted by Ralph Milton (a "seriously old geezer"), shares the good and the bad of being old, really old! The joy and the pain of it. It's about getting the most out of those platinum years. This podcast will help the "truly old" tell stories and share insights and ideas to help deal with the crud and enjoy all the blessings. It will also help their kids and the army of caregivers. As Ralph says, "they come every day to give us baths and help us dress and make sure we take our meds. They need to know what it's like to be old.”
