It was on stage during a show that she was asked to audition for her first movie role…and she got the part! That part was Doris the Dominatrix in the cult classic film Eating Raoul. It was a role that she loved doing and is still bringing her acclaim as it was released in 2012 on Criterion Films for its 30th anniversary! She appeared in the films: The Presidio as Gloria, the Deadhead secretary, Kelly in Paul Bartel's Scenes from the Class Struggle in Beverly Hills and Buffy the groupie in the indie film Get Crazy.

With a rich background in nursing and a penchant for solving problems, Hansen's career spans decades of leading top healthcare organizations such as the American Geriatrics Society, AARP, and On Lok, which is the flagship/prototype for what is now known as People for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). She currently serves on the boards of the Medicare Advantage SCAN Health Plan and HelpAge USA. In 2019, she helped to craft the California Masterplan for Aging, now in implementation.  For this week's episode, Hansen sits down with Susan Ryan to discuss how her childhood experience as an Asian girl living in Boston shaped her career choices. She also discusses her desire to see more upstream work that focuses getting “people prepared for their own aging changes.”  Finally, Hansen shares her vision for what she believes will help to not only “hold the line,” but also move it with regard to ensuring economic security for older Americans. Among Hansen's many awards are the American Academy of Nursing's Health Care Leader Award, American Society on Aging's Hall of Fame Award, and the National Council on Aging's Lifetime Achievement Award.  In 2024, she received an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters degree from Harvard University at its commencement ceremony in May of 2024. Here is video of highlights from that event: https://youtu.be/lzDYU7sNddA?si=W0hGbEWsS8osCaRq.

In this episode, the guys (and a surprise houseguest that crossed the Canadian border we all know as MooseJaw) navigate the whirlwind of professional sports drafts and looming trade deadlines. The conversation kicks off with a breakdown of the NBA draft, where teams like the Hornets and Spurs are praised for their strategic moves, while the Nets and Pelicans are panned for their questionable choices. The crew then slides over to the NHL, debating the immediate impact of its draft picks compared to other leagues and reacting to breaking news of a major trade, with their resident NHL expert MooseJaw leading the way.As baseball season hits its stride, they shift to the MLB trade deadline, with a spirited discussion about which teams will be buyers looking for that final piece and which might blow it all up and become sellers.The hosts issue "punches" to a shockingly offensive baseball fan, the Washington Nationals' new AARP jersey sponsor, and the potential expansion of the NCAA tournament.They balance the criticism with "lassos" of praise for the fans who supported a heckled player and a young draftee's impressive compassion. The show concludes with a flurry of "buzzer beaters," including a heartfelt tribute to the late great Dave Parker, updates from the world of soccer, and the surprising news that the NHL is doing away with its quirky emergency backup goalie rule, wrapping up another boisterous and freewheeling discussion.

Hard to believe it, but Drew Barrymore turns 50 this year. She can't believe it either. She got her AARP card, but it brings up the question of whether 50 is the "right" age to start thinking about or implementing retirement planning. Jim Fox has an answer for you and other things to think about if you have a retirement plan or have thought about getting one started.

  Where in the world am I? Brazil planning Hi there. I'm Dr. Mary Travelbest, returning from a recent trip to Asia. I'm in San Diego now, sharing my best travel ideas and working on another book for you to enjoy: 5 Steps to Solo Travel, Part C. I'm about to launch on a 90-day trip around the world. Listener Story Spotlight I want to tell you about a listener named Juliana who is from Brazil. She was a student of mine and now she works with me. She gave me a list of all the places in Brazil that I should be going to.She and I have known each other for 3 years. She's so beautiful and full of life. I'm so grateful for. Quick fire FAQ: The FAQ for today is:  Should I carry books with me to read on the trip? I recommend you download them from your local or cloud library. Then you read on the go. Don't carry more than you need. 3 things: neighborhood selection, daylight itineraries, scam avoidance Select neighborhoods that are walkable and have public transportation nearby if you don't drive. Read reviews on the AirBNB website before you select. When booking a flight or train, be sure it arrives at a daylight time, which can differ in winter months. If it comes after dark, it will be more of a challenge for you.  To avoid scams, be cautious when choosing passwords, logging out of websites, and making online purchases. These are very typical scams. If you are suspicious, you may be right to avoid that vendor and choose another. Don't look like a target, either   Today's destination is: Brazil.

Maybe you want to travel because you never saw these places while you raised your children and supported the family. You may want to visit where you were born and want to do it on your own. You may want to lie on a beach in Tahiti and have a long nap. How does one get to do this? We will help you with instruction, guidance, and good stories. This book must be published now because 14.8% of women are over 65, and most outlive their spouses. Another large chunk of women are in their 50s and early 60s and have years of activity to go. Plus, there are 38 million members of AARP, many looking for active choices on how they live and travel.  Gone are the days of your travel agent booking your paper airline ticket. You will not likely contact a travel agent for your trip. The more we understand others and their cultures, the more we can get along with them. Dr. Mary Travelbest is like Rick Steves for Women adventure travelers who are seasoned in years but have yet to gain travel experience. My daughter, my co-author, Tina, and I have been traveling since she was born 22 years ago. She's also made many solo trips, including visiting her sister in China for a month this year. She's completed her degree in Business, working on a Master's degree, and living/working in the San Francisco area. This book needs to be published so the Golden Years can be just that for those who like active travel.    The take away mantra is to go and find peace where you rest and bring good to others    You can travel solo and never be alone.

Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about Talent. While we're seeing a growing awareness of ageism, the reality is that it is regularly ignored as an inclusion factor. The impact of this is staggering. AARP estimates that ageism costs the US economy $850 billion in lost GDP annually, and research shows that intergenerational teams consistently outperform age-segregated ones in terms of productivity and innovation. Yet, unlike other forms of discrimination, age bias is openly accepted in hiring via things like age-coded job descriptions and ATS systems that filter by graduation dates. So what will it take for organizations to recognize that age discrimination isn't just morally wrong - it's actively destroying their competitive advantage? My guest this week is Maureen Clough, host of the 'It Gets Late Early' podcast and advocate against ageism on a mission to expose this universal form of discrimination. In our conversation, she reveals practical strategies for both employers and job seekers to combat age bias while building truly inclusive workplaces that work for everyone. In the interview, we discuss: Is ageism getting worse? The $850 billion impact on GDP How ageism is baked into some recruiting processes Why proving age discrimination in the US is so difficult. What should TA do to combat ageism? The power of intergenerational teams and mentorship AI's impact on entry-level jobs and Gen Z's involuntary disconnection from the workplace Strategies for older job seekers What should the future look like?

One of the ways that we believe we can be better humans is to actually listen to each other - not just nod along when we watch people's mouths move, or wait impatiently for someone to finish their thought before we can jump in and say what we've been dying to say - but actually listen to what they're saying, take a moment to reflect on that, and respond. Perhaps you ask a clarifying question, perhaps you share a reflection, perhaps you simply agree and ask for more details. Regardless of your response, if you're really listening, people will know and will see you in a better light as a result.  If you're curious about how to be a better listener, we offer two experts on the topic who help us understand: What do you mean by radical listening?   What to listen for: Why listening better makes you a better human Six skills important to growing your ability to listen better The role culture can play in listening and communication What environment is most conducive to listening, and what YOU can do to be a better listener  About the guests:    Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener is a researcher, author, and consultant with 75 peer-reviewed academic articles with over 27,000 citations.
