Sometimes we just want to do nothing or at least whatever it is that we are supposed to be doing. We have no energy and no impulse to try to find some. We just want to lay low. Is there something wrong with that?

What we do with ourselves, our family or friends when death comes is important to some. I don't think it is important to the ones who die but it is to those that are left behind. We need to be comfortable with the decision.

Sixteen months ago my primary care doctor told me I had developed Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI). In lay terms that means I am losing my mind. It could happen slowly over the next few years or it could happen more quickly. That seems like a life chan... more

How much of our life do we really remember? I have a hard time even considering the question. I like to think that I remember what happened in detail. When I launch into a story at a dinner party I have no doubt in mind as to the details. How wrong c... more

    This is my favourite podcast about retirement. Del’s focus is not money but how to make this phase of life meaningful and rewarding. He’s a storyteller & teacher, sharing lessons he has learned in life.

  • Retirement Talk for Boomers

    2019

    I enjoy the personal antidotes that speak to the soon-to-be retired baby boomer - me. He uses a conversational style that makes me feel I am having a cup of coffee with someone who has some experience with this stage of life.

    2024

    Retired 5 years - still listening - still learning - still growing - still grateful for this weekly pep talk! Thank you Del - & - by the way - keep speaking political truth - it is appreciated by me more than you could ever imagine !

  • Good podcast outside authors constant bizarre political commentary

    I have enjoyed several of this authors podcasts except for the truly weird far left political comments he constantly injects into his topics. The podcaster is a Marxist who can’t help himself and keeps sabotaging his podcast with truly bizarre political commentary. If he left out his constant political nonsense this would have been an excellent podcast because otherwise he is pleasant to listen to and gives some great information and advice about retirement.

  • A Good Pod That Drifted Left

    I used to really enjoy this one and still to most of the time, but inevitably a political slant crept in so going to unsubscribe.
