The Iseeoldpeople Podcast

Dr. Bruce rambles on about missing his podcast recording date, the post surgical pain he is enduring, drug induced psychosis and the dreaded and weirdly spelled hemorrhoids.

Dr. Bruce rambles on about how difficult it is to get shy silent generation seniors to share their stories on the podcast. They love sharing face to face but the introduction of a microphone changes everything. He also shares his trepidation about his upcoming hernia surgery.

Dr. Bruce dives into the world of investigative journalism as he questions the driveABLE driving testing system in Ontario. In interviews with Vic and Anne it is clear how the system is rigged against the senior. The driveABLE testing is targeting the Silent generation (Over 80 yrs old) and is costing seniors money as well as having their driver's license revoked. This targeting of a particular group is in violation of the Human Rights Act and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

My advise:  If you are not experiences any trouble with driving or with your memory then do not consult your health care professional. Even asking about either could result in you being fast tracked to having your driver's licence revoked! Be safe but be cautious, as a senior you are being targeted.

Dr. Bruce rambles on about seniors volunteering and his frustration with getting up to pee too many times every night. He also celebrates 400 days of sobriety but unfortunately the 400 has an asterisk after it.

Dr. Bruce was thrilled to have Mr. George Pond in the studio. Norfolk born and raised, George is a member of the Silent generation, a community builder, photographer, birdwatcher and proud Lion. George is also an inductee into the Norfolk Sports Hall of Recognition and he took many of the photographs of the various athletes and teams that are on display.

Dr. Bruce Sits down with WW2 Veteran Art Hayward. At 95 years young, Art is still serving the community, still driving and enjoying solving the world's problems every morning with his coffee group. Art was a pleasure to meet and to interview. Art discusses his 'volunteer' role with mustard gas experiments and his unexpected trip down the Ottawa River.  I must say, as so many have said before me, "Thank you for your service sir". 

Dr Bruce rambles on about the short days and long nights at this time of year and how bummed he was when they bumped his surgery date.

Also....can you have a hangover from Sugar?

DrBruce shares a personal story of his evolving relationship to alcohol and the positive changes that have occured by eliminating this destructive element from his life. 

Dr. Bruce rambles on about the Sugar Blues, sugar toxicity and ways to start reducing sugar in your diet. He also has a short conversation with his mom, allowing the perspective that only a mother can provide. As in- " I was busy raising a family I didn't really notice your teenage sugar advocacy."

Added sugar is in 74% of all processed foods.  Sugar has 61 different commonly used names to hide it in ingredient lists, your only protection is labels.  Learn how to read and understand labels and start today to reduce this white death from our diets.

Dr. Bruce is sick as a dog.  If you thought Dr. Bruce was a bit long in his last intro, you will love this one.   Hello and then Heeeeeers Art!!!!!!!!
