  • FNBB 38 - Keep The Bully On The Playground

    On this week's Friday Night BeerBlog, we're talking about the bad side of social media. Last week I was saying that we need to get up to speed on social media and this week I'm saying it that it is ultimately up to us seasoned veterans to protect our young sons, daughters, nieces, nephews, grands from the ugly side of such an amazing format.

    I felt a calling to talk about this this week after hearing from a friend that his nephew had taken his life after the prodding of faceless people over the internet. That just ain't right.

    Protect the young ones. Make sure they know that they are perfect the way they are and that they are loved. Because love isn't earned, it is freely given.

    Make sure to FOLLOW this podcast and RATE and REVIEW so that more people hear that these discussions are happening.

    On this week's The New Old You, Mary Glover is talking about Functional Fitness here:

    And this next week I'll be talking to Paula Hensley and her mom, Peggy Tojo about Peggy's husband internment in a Japanese Camp after the break of WWII. You won't want to miss it.

  • FNBB 37 - Old Dogs Need To Learn New Tricks

    On this week's Friday Night BeerBlog I'm reading Mike my blog about how it would behoove all of us midlifers need to "get up" on our social media skills. It may seem like a frivolous way to spend your time or something that only the youngsters do, but I'm telling you - if you want a new job in Communication, Marketing, Promotion, or want to be able to communicate with your grandchildren in the future, you'd better get on the digital train now.

  • FNBB 36 - Why Mel Robbins Should Be On My Podcast, Like Yesterday

    Mel Robbins should be on The New Old You. This blog and podcast is my plea to her and her team on why she should give me 30 minutes. Women 50+ need to hear her to encourage them in this new phase - as well as help them figure out the best way to prepare our kids leave the nest without fear of their mental health.

    Keeping it short. Go to my website at https://llmcshane.com - sign up for updates.

    Follow or Subscribe to this podcast and to The New Old You.

    Go buy Mel's book at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/High-Habit-Take-Control-Simple/dp/B09DTFV5FH/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3MLEWM0ITO12X&dchild=1&keywords=the+high+five+habit&qid=1634345016&sprefix=The+high%2Caps%2C725&sr=8-1

  • FNBB 35 - If I Sound That Awesome On Paper, I Probably Am

    Y'all!! I had a real, live job interview this week. I haven't interviewed for a job in over 20 years. But I didn't sweat it. I decided to let the answers flow, and it worked out for me, even though I haven't heard about the job.

    I felt that answering from my heart was the ultimate way to give truth to all my answers. I hate preconceived answers to interview questions - speak from the heart. They'll never see it coming!

    It could be the @milewidebeerco beer talking, but know yourself and the rest will follow.

    Peace.

    You can follow me and get updates from signing up at my site https://llmcshane.com or your can follow me on instagram @llmcshane or @lamcshane.

    Love to all - Happy Friday!

  • FNBB 34 - I Did A Thing And Took My Own Advice

    Happy Friday everybody!

    I did a thing and took my own advice!! I'll let you listen to find out what it was, but it is quite the phenomenon when you shut up long enough to listen to your own wise words - the words you often share with others instead of yourself.

    It's been a great week and my heart is light as you'll hear about in the podcast.

    I hope you enjoy and then you take a second to rate or review this podcast. We have a blast doing it and now we have some return on investment to work on. :)

    This week's episode is brought to you by Milewide Beer Co. (https://www.milewidebeer.com/). If you are ever in Louisville, KY and are looking for an amazing local brew, give them a go. you won't be disappointed. Make sure to mention Mike and Lesley, just to hear them say, "Who??"

    Life is good friends. Enjoy every day and we'll see you next week.

    Make sure to FOLLOW the freaking podcast! And rate that you love it and review only good things. Or....no beer for you.

  • FNBB 33 - It's That Time Of Year - You Deserve To Treat Yo' Self

    In the infamous words of Tom and Donna from Parks and Recreation, it's time to TREAT YO' SELF. It's the Best Day of the Year!

    I get the Treat Yo' Self itch at least once every year and I am definitely there right now. I know that Christmas is Coming and if there was ever a time to treat myself, it is right now.

    This blog and podcast are your permissions slip to do the same for yourself. Do it! Treat Yo' Self.

    Thanks for indulging us this Friday night. Follow if you want. Read if you want on my website https://llmcshane.com.

  • FNBB 32 - I Hate It. I Love It. The Rut Is Real.

    I make a lot of fun of Mike for the workout rut that he does every morning, without the realization that pretty much everything we do is part of a rut that we have put together for our everyday life.

    When we had to move outside of our rut, life was kinda chaotic and we yearned for that old rut. We needed normal and familiar. 

    Change is good. But there is nothing like that warm blanket of the rut to keep you feeling safe.

    If you enjoy our little podcast diddy, make sure to FOLLOW so that you will be made aware of new episodes. But you can pretty can rely on the rut that this podcast and blog will be available every Friday night.

    Till next week - LLM

  • FNBB 31 - My Marriage Can Really Suck Sometimes: A Love Story

    Mike and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary this week. I've had several young people and couples ask how we have lasted this long. I am quick to say to althought being married can really suck sometimes, I am married to my best friend. We are a team - we succeed together and we fail together.

    Finding someone who becomes your family without being actual blood is a gift. And he is mine.

    I swore to Mike I wouldn't get mushy in the actual blog/podcast, so I'm doing it here. He'll never read this. :)

  • FNBB 30 - People Pleasing Isn't Your Job - Being Your Own Boss Is

    We moved our 22 year old daughter to Los Angeles over the last week. Things got real, real fast. She'll do fine, but we left her some advice before we left and the main advice was - Follow your gut, listen to your intuition. They will serve you well.

    This is advice we can all follow at any age in any location.

    Short outro tonight - I'm tired.

    If you enjoy the FNBB, you know what to do - FOLLOW.

    See you on the flippity flop.

  • FNBB 29 - Go Back To Summer Camp And Shake Your Booty

    On this week's FNBB, I am recounting our trip to Lake Norris with friends and their friends who we had never met. I talk about how it was a lot like summer camp when we were kids - you don't know each other at first, but little by little you open up and even get a little vulnerable before you have to say goodbye at the end of the week.

    Making new friends as an adult is not something that is done on a regular basis, but highly recommended. There are so many people out there with so many stories and great things to share. Don't close yourself off.

    Thanks for listening tonight. As always, we appreciate it and  look forward to recording from Los Angeles next Friday night.

    Stay well - and SUBSCRIBE! And sign up for my email list at my website https://llmcshane.com. Till next week - Cheers!
