In this New Year’s episode of You Still Have Time, we look back on a difficult 2025 and share how we are navigating 2026 with renewed resolutions, from decluttering and limiting negative news to filling our minds with more positive influences. We acknowledge the heartbreak of last year’s crises—wildfires, floods, hurricanes, ongoing gun violence, and global losses—while also highlighting signs of hope such as medical breakthroughs, released hostages, and everyday acts of kindness. The conversation turns to civic engagement, the “three and a half percent rule,” voting, and getting involved locally as ways to push back against helplessness and support democracy and community.

We want to emphasize that listeners are not alone, and stress the importance of staying connected, supporting one another, and refusing to accept despair as the norm.  Whether you are a longtime follower or  brand new to podcasts, this episode sets the tone for 2026: staying informed without being consumed, taking action where possible, and remembering that you still have time to hope, to connect, and to make a difference.

This episode entitled “Season Wrap Up” is a reflective recap marking the end of the podcast's first season. We look back on six months since starting the show in June, summarizing what we’ve learned, the topics we’ve covered, and our experiences building a community.

We discuss memorable episodes—such as ones about nostalgia (“Remember the Time”), staying active in retirement (“Staying Engaged”), and avoiding scams that target older adults. Much of the conversation emphasizes our mission: creating content for older listeners often overlooked by mainstream media.

In this special extended episode of the 'You Still Have Time' podcast,  we welcome four guests—June, Pierre, Marlene, and Terri—for a roundtable discussion on the topic of longevity and what age they would ideally like to live to. The conversation delves into various aspects of aging, including health and quality of life. The participants share personal anecdotes and their philosophical and practical views on life, death, and legacy. Touching on culturally diverse perspectives and family dynamics, the discussion also explores topics such as cryogenics, decluttering, and the concept of a 'right to die' with dignity. This thoughtful episode not only provides insights into the aspirations and fears of older adults but also emphasizes the importance of planning and having meaningful conversations about the future.

In this episode of "You Still Have Time," we discuss the question of how old is too old, inspired by Nancy Pelosi's decision not to run for re-election at age 85. We highlight that 112 members of Congress are over 70, with 11 between 80 and 90, and one at 91. We  emphasize the importance of self-awareness and honesty about one's abilities, especially as we age.

In this episode of the You Still Have Time podcast, we explore the subject of hand me downs - not in the traditional sense of second hand clothes but as a metaphor for the values, traditions and histories passed down through generations. What do we chose to preserve, what gets lost and how do these choices shape who we are

This is a lighthearted but genuine conversation about the everyday frustrations of aging, based on input from people over 60. We share personal stories and common complaints that reflect both physical limitations and annoyances with modern conveniences.

Key Issues Raised

• Low seating and toilets: Chairs, couches, and toilets that are too low or too soft make standing difficult, especially without armrests.
• Difficult packaging: “Child-proof” or “easy-open” packaging often requires scissors or knives, frustrating older adults who may also struggle with diminished hand strength.
• Stairs and accessibility: Stairs without railings and venues without elevators are barriers. 
• Loud environments: Restaurants and music venues with blasting sound make it difficult to converse or enjoy the experience.
• Standing-only events: Concerts or clubs without seating alienate older attendees. 
• Noise pollution: Complaints about loud cars, motorcycles, and booming car stereos disrupting peace at home.
• Digital frustrations:
  • Online forms with scrolling birthdate selectors feel endless.
  • QR code menus create inconvenience compared to simple paper menus.
• Driving challenges: Blinding bright headlights and age-related vision issues make night driving stressful.
• Late-night events: Programs starting at 10 PM are unappealing; many prefer early evening activities.
• Aging bodies: Declining strength, joint problems, dental issues, hearing loss, and difficulty opening jars make daily life harder.

Attitudinal Problems

Condescension from younger people: Older adults dislike being spoken to as if they are incompetent, especially with technology or self-checkouts.

• Mockery: Some younger people make fun of habits like using a handwritten shopping list.
• Fast or low talking: Service workers who speak too quickly or too softly create extra frustration.
