In episode 48, I have Chris Roddell as my guest on the essential boomer. Chris is the author of Use All the Crayons! The Colorful Guide to Simple Human Happiness, the only self-improvement book graced with a cover endorsement by the legendary golfer & pitchman Arnold Palmer.

Chris is a fellow boomer who will do just about anything for a good story. His latest work is “The Last Baby Boomer: The Story of the Ultimate Ghoul Pool,” a story with a very intriguing premise, especially for us boomers. Or as he puts it, “It’s a coming of old, old age story. Because everyone has to die. But only one of us gets to die last.”
