In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we dive into the idea of being “clueless”—and how that label shifts depending on who you ask.

We talk about modern scams, who tends to fall for them, and what the statistics say about which generations are most affected. Then we flip the lens and look at younger generations’ “cluelessness” around everyday skills that were once common knowledge—like sewing, basic cooking, and other practical life tasks many of us grew up with that are no longer part of the education system.

It’s a funny and honest conversation about how every generation has its blind spots, and how “clueless” might just depend on what you were taught to know.

This is our 24th episode, so as we did in season one, 3 Old Broads and a Lady are going to take a small hiatus before we start Season 3. Hang tight, we'll be back. (Besides, I need a break... said Suzanne)

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.

In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, the four women are joined by Susan’s granddaughters for a lively, cross-generational conversation between Boomers and Gen Alpha.

The ladies take the lead—bringing their own curiosity, humor, and Boomer slang—as they interview the “Electro Generation” about how life, values, and everyday habits have changed over time. Things get especially fun when the granddaughters introduce their own questionnaires to decode the ladies’ “aesthetics,” leading to some unexpected answers, plenty of laughter, and a few generational misunderstandings along the way.

It’s a warm, funny exchange where two very different generations meet in the middle to compare worlds, language, and what it really means to grow up in completely different eras.

In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we step into the “Wayback Machine” and imagine where we would go—and what we would do—if we could travel through time.

We talk about time travel theories, from the scientific to the purely speculative, and whether changing the past would ever really be possible. Along the way, we share a few surprising and funny moments from history—like the strange, unexpected mishaps that even famous figures couldn’t escape, including Napoleon’s infamous rabbit incident.

It’s a playful mix of imagination, history, and “what ifs” as we explore how the past might be closer—and stranger—than we think.

In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we each take a turn talking about the things we would tell our younger selves if we had the chance.

From hard-won lessons and missed opportunities to the advice we wish we’d believed sooner, we reflect on what we know now that we didn’t know then. It’s honest, funny, and a little tender as we look back at the choices that shaped us—and the wisdom that only time seems to teach.

In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we take a nostalgic walk through the decades, looking back at the things that have come and gone since the 1950s.

From everyday staples and cultural trends to the way we lived, worked, and entertained ourselves, we reflect on what’s disappeared, what’s evolved, and what we secretly miss. It’s a mix of memories, laughs, and a little bit of “remember when,” as we compare how much life has changed across generations—and what still manages to stick around.

In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we’re talking about customer service—or what’s left of it—and how much it has changed over the years.

From the Boomer expectation that “the customer is always right” and service meant personal attention and accountability, to today’s fast-moving, app-based “help yourself” world shaped by younger generations, we compare what customer service used to feel like versus what it feels like now. We also dig into the differences between Boomers and Zoomers when it comes to patience, expectations, and what “good service” even means anymore... with a slight detour to explore In-n-Out Burgers...

It’s a funny, sometimes frustrating, and very real look at how we’re all experiencing the same systems in very different ways.

In this episode of 3 Old Broads and a Lady, we talk about how each generation views work, play, and time off—and how different those ideas really are.

Boomers often tied identity to their careers and took time off as planned, well-earned vacations. Gen X worked hard too, but started pulling back from the “live to work” mindset and became more protective of their downtime. Millennials tend to prioritize balance and family, often using time off for meaningful experiences rather than just escape. Gen Z, meanwhile, is redefining work entirely—treating time off as essential and not something to feel guilty about.

So grab something to drink, sit back and enjoy the podcast.

In this episode, 3 Old Broads and a Lady take a warm, funny stroll down memory lane to talk about best friends—the ones we collected as kids, the ones we kept, the ones we lost touch with, and the ones who somehow became family. We laugh about how easy it was to have a whole crowd of friends when we were little, then get real about how friendship shifts as you age: busier lives, smaller circles, deeper bonds, and a whole lot more appreciation. Sweet, a little roasty, and full of heart—because the older we get, the more we realize the best friendships are the ones that grow up with you.

In this episode, 3 Old Broads and a Lady share the wild, funny, scary, and downright unbelievable moments that somehow didn’t take us out. From close calls and crazy mishaps to the kind of stories that get better every time they’re told, we’re swapping the tales we survived and can finally laugh about now. It’s heartfelt, hilarious, and full of the life experience that comes from going through it all—and living to tell the tale.
