There are a few things we know can help keep our brains healthy as we age like exercise, social connection, learning a new skill, and creative expression. One activity combines all of these, but it might also bring back memories of early childhood embarrassment.

At The Age of Aging, we often talk about the importance of physical activity and a healthy diet for brain longevity. However, one of the best things you can do to promote brain health as you age may also seem unlikely: hanging out with your friends.  

In this episode, we explore the growing body of research linking social isolation and loneliness to cognitive decline and dementia risk. We’ll hear from older adults navigating loneliness, researchers studying its effects on the brain, and members of a unique housing community designed to help older adults stay connected. 

Later, Terrence Casey, Jake Johnson, and Executive Producer Dr. Jason Karlawish reflect on what loneliness looks like in clinical practice, why social isolation can complicate dementia diagnosis and care, and what listeners can do to build stronger social connections throughout their lives.

Doris Kitt’s Poem on loneliness: 

Life is fraught dear friends  

That’s just how it is  

The challenge is overcoming and 

You don’t have to be a wiz  

It’s okay to be sad  

Just don’t let it linger 

There are lots of things to do  

To give loneliness the finger.  

Remember the good ole days  

And how life used to be  

When things were really simpler  

Now a memory to you and me.  

Doing something different  

And keeping busy too  

Will bring about a change  

You never knew you knew  

Teach yourself a language  

How hard could it be 

Or simply go a fishin’  

Or read a book beneath a tree.  

Take the train to an unknown stop  

Get off and have a cup of tea  

Trying something new  

Will bring a lot of joy to thee  

Volunteer with children  

Oh what a day you’ll have  

And I guarantee that loneliness  

Won’t seem so bad  

The idea is to keep busy  

Within your capable range  

It will make you happy  

And your mind will feel the change  

Ride a bike. Go skating  

Just doing something new  

Will make your body healthy  

I promise you.  

The thoughts that make you lonely  

Will be a thing of the past  

Have faith. Have hope. Be joyful  

And life will be a blast.  

No matter what phase of life you’re in  

Loneliness can be a drag  

It will affect your welfare  

And keep you in a bag.  

Don’t delay in getting help  

If that is what you need  

You deserve to live a life of peace  

So let others intercede. 

What changes when dementia care becomes personal? In this bonus conversation, neuropsychologist Dr. Emma Rhodes sits down with Penn Memory Center Director of Social Work Alison Lynn to talk about caring for her father with Alzheimer’s disease, balancing caregiving with work, and how the experience has changed the way she sees patients and families.

At the Age of Aging, we often speak with researchers and clinicians who have devoted their careers to understanding dementia and caring for the people living with it. Less often, we hear what happens when dementia becomes personal for those same experts. 

In this episode, neuropsychologist Dr. Emma Rhodes shares her experience caring for her father, Jack, following his diagnosis of dementia due to Alzheimer's disease. In conversation with Penn Memory Center Director of Social Work Allison Lynn, Emma reflects on grief, stigma, caregiving, and the challenges of navigating life as both a dementia expert and a daughter. Then, Executive Producer Dr. Jason Karlawish and Editorial Director Terrence Casey unpack some of the interview's most powerful moments, connecting Emma's experience to broader lessons about caregiving and dementia care. 

Inside this episode 

4:18 – Daughter First, Neuropsychologist Second: Emma Rhodes reflects on the challenge of balancing her professional knowledge with the emotional reality of caring for her father. 

7:52 – The Uncanny and Ambiguous Loss: Jason Karlawish discusses the profound grief family caregivers experience when a loved one is simultaneously familiar and changed by dementia. 

12:45 – When Professional Calm Breaks Down: Jason shares a candid story about losing his composure while trying to help his father manage his finances. 

16:03 – Dementia Stigma Firsthand: Emma describes how caring for her father revealed just how difficult and often unwelcoming the world can be for people living with cognitive impairment. 

19:48 – Clinicians as Caregivers: Jason and Terrence explore why more healthcare professionals are speaking openly about their personal experiences with dementia in their own families. 

28:15 – The Hidden Work of Caregiving: Emma discusses the emotional, logistical, and physical effort required to attend clinic visits, participate in research, and manage day-to-day care. 

32:48 – “How Are You Doing?” Jason explains why one of the most important questions a clinician can ask a caregiver is also one of the simplest. 

39:26 – “Our Families Are Your Patients Too”: Jason reflects on why healthcare systems must better recognize and support family caregivers as essential partners in dementia care.

At the Age of Aging, we are sometimes lucky enough to have too many great stories to fit into a single podcast episode. We ran into this fortunate circumstance last season with our episode, “Ambiguous Loss,” which shared the stories of two caregivers grappling with their loved one’s decline from dementia. On today's mid-summer bonus episode, we share a third story we recorded that didn’t make the cut – not because it wasn't good enough, but because it was too complete to be a piece of something else.  

Margo Woodacre is an author, teacher, former state senator, and for eight years, the primary caregiver for her husband, Ernie, who was living with Alzheimer's. In this standalone conversation, Woodacre reflects on caregiving, grief, identity, and the slow work of asking, “Who am I now?” that followed the loss of Ernie. 

Inside this episode: 

2:02 – Becoming a Caregiver: Woodacre reflects on the early signs of Ernie’s Alzheimer’s disease, the fear that followed his diagnosis, and the emotional challenge of caring for someone whose personality was beginning to change. 

6:18 – Learning to Dance in the Rain: After a difficult moment in Ernie’s illness, Woodacre shares how a neighbor’s advice helped her reframe caregiving, change her own responses, and meet Ernie where he was. In doing so, she learned how to reduce conflict, preserve connection, and keep finding meaningful moments with him. 

10:26 – Delayed Grief: Woodacre reflects on the surprising sense of relief that followed Ernie’s passing, the administrative work of closing a life, and the delayed grief that emerged once the busyness faded. 

13:49 – Losing and Reclaiming Identity: After years of caregiving, Woodacre found herself asking who she was without Ernie and without the caregiving role that had shaped her daily life. She discusses journaling, meditation, teaching, politics, support groups, and solo travel as part of her path back to herself. 

16:20 – Traveling Alone Again: Woodacre shares the story of her first solo trip after Ernie’s death, a dude ranch vacation that began in loneliness and became a turning point in rebuilding confidence, openness, and independence. 

19:08 – Advice for Grieving Caregivers: Woodacre offers guidance for people beginning the grieving process: take your time, allow yourself to grieve, but don’t stay so long in pain that you miss the next lesson life may still have to offer.

At The Age of Aging, we know that the stories we tell about dementia shape the perceptions, resources, and, ultimately, the lived experience of people with the condition. As such, it is our number one priority to understand what narratives serve an aging population and which ones are better left in the past.  

For the Season 5 finale, our team reflects on a special report from Hastings Center for Bioethics, Living with Dementia: Learning from Cultural Narratives of Aging Societies. Through a series of personal audio essays, some familiar voices from this season explore how cultural narratives influence the lived experience of dementia—and how new stories might help us build a more compassionate, creative, and supportive future. 

Inside this episode: 

4:21 – Managing Dependence: Dr. Jason Karlawish discusses Mercer Gary's essay on assistive technologies in dementia care. He explores the tension between fears of technological dependence and hopes that technology can eliminate dependence altogether. 

11:47 – Creativity, Collaboration, and Dementia: Terrence Casey, editorial director and co-host of The Age of Aging, reflects on Julia Henderson's essay examining participatory arts programs and how projects like Anne Basting's Penelope Project challenge conventional narratives about dementia. 

16:19 – Learning from History: Dr. Emily Largent discusses Jesse Ballenger's essay on the history of dementia. She explores how modern anxieties about cognitive decline are shaped by changing ideas about identity, aging, and selfhood. 

20:15 – New Narratives for a More Just Future: Producer and Co-Host Jake Johnson examines how cultural narratives influence dementia care and why imagining ourselves into the lives of people living with dementia and caregivers is essential to meaningful social change. 

25:34 – Rethinking Housing and Care: Dr. Holly Elser discusses supportive housing as a promising model for people living with dementia, offering an alternative to the traditional divide between aging in place and institutional care. 

28:14 – Season 5 Reflections: Dr. Jason Karlawish, Jake Johnson, and Terrence Casey discuss their favorite episodes from the season, lessons learned from reporting on aging and dementia, and what listeners can expect this summer and in Season 6.

The air around us is invisible, but its effects on the brain are becoming harder to ignore. Research now links long-term exposure to air pollution with increased Alzheimer's pathology, cognitive decline, and greater dementia risk, and older adults face the greatest threat. 

On this episode of The Age of Aging, we go inside that science. Dr. Eddie Lee shares new findings from the University of Pennsylvania connecting lifetime particulate matter exposure to amyloid and tau buildup in the brain. Toxicologists, lung health experts, and clean air advocates explain what air pollution actually is, why Philadelphia's air quality ranks among the most concerning of major American cities, and what individuals and communities can do to protect themselves. And Dr. Holly Elser joins host Terrence Casey to explore the broader relationship between environment, place, and brain health — and why the fight for clean air is also a fight for healthy aging.  

Inside this episode: 

5:45 – Air Pollution and Alzheimer’s Disease: Dr. Eddie Lee explains how his team linked lifetime exposure to particulate air pollution with increased amyloid and tau pathology in the brain. 

9:27 – What Is Air Pollution?: Dr. Trevor Penning and Bev Stewart break down the science of particulate matter, ozone, and toxic gases, and explain why older adults are particularly susceptible to their harmful effects. 

13:06 – Philly’s Air Quality: Clean Air Council advocate Russell Zerbo discusses the biggest contributors to air pollution in Philadelphia, including transportation, industry, and urban density, and what local efforts are underway to improve air quality. 

15:01 – Protecting Yourself: Experts share practical steps individuals can take to reduce exposure to poor air quality, from tracking the Air Quality Index and wearing N95 masks to improving indoor air filtration. 

22:08 – Environment and Brain Health: Dr. Holly Elser joins Terrence Casey to discuss the emerging science connecting environmental exposures and dementia risk, the importance of policy solutions, and how climate and place shape healthy aging.
