Podcasts about Old age

The years have flown by for Abasiama Ufot -- the once student-immigrant is now an octogenarian. At 80, she still reigns as the matriarch of the Nigerian-American family, but she is also content to live a quiet, reflective life alone in Worcester, Massachusetts. That's where we find Abasiama in the eighth of the nine-part Ufot Family cycle of plays: ” In Old Age.” Playwright Mfoniso Udofiya and actress Ebony Marshall-Oliver join us to discuss the penultimate chapter of the cycle.

You don't die of old age. You die of the diseases aging causes — and Dr. Sandra Kaufmann says we can fight back.In this episode of Transparent with Tina, longevity physician Dr. Sandra Kaufmann breaks down the science of aging in a way that actually makes sense. From the 7 Tenets of Aging to cutting-edge tools like exosomes, NAD+, NMN, and senolytics — this conversation will change how you think about your body, your health, and your future.We go deep on:

“We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.” (Romans 5:3–5 NLT) Benjamin Disraeli, a former prime minister of Great Britain, once said, “Youth is a blunder; Manhood a struggle, Old Age a regret.” Maybe that seems like a dim view of existence, but there are a lot of people who would agree with his assessment. In a fallen world, there is no vacation from human suffering and tragedy. Many deep-thinking people have tried to sort out this reality, understand it, and explain it. C. S. Lewis called it “the problem of pain.” What we need to understand in considering this problem is that there is a God who, even in the worst tragedy, can bring good out of bad. As believers, we acknowledge that life can be bad. We acknowledge that bad things can happen. We acknowledge that tragedies can come into our lives. But we also acknowledge that God is sovereign, which means He’s in control. And we acknowledge that ultimately God can cause all things to work together for good to those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (see Romans 8:28). Some people cling to the mistaken notion that because they’re Christians, they won’t suffer. They may not state it outright, but they believe that bad things won’t happen to them. However, Jesus dispelled that notion when He said, “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world” (John 16:33 NLT). As we consider the cost of following Christ, we must acknowledge that suffering is part of it. Despite Jesus’ warning, many believers have a hard time putting the words trials, problems, and God loves me into one sentence because they just don’t seem to go together. But let’s look at God’s endgame. Is it to make us happy in the temporal or make us holy in the eternal? Is it to keep us always earthbound or to prepare us for Heaven? The answer in both cases is the second option. The apostle Paul explained it this way: “We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love” (Romans 5:3–5 NLT). God allows suffering to occur. And while no suffering is good, He can bring good from suffering. Reflection question: When have you seen God bring good from a situation that was anything but good?

Social Security retirement benefits are projected to undergo an automatic reduction of 24% by late 2032 unless Congress takes action to prevent the depletion of the program's trust fund. A recent analysis conducted in June 2026 by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget indicates that the insolvency of the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) Trust Fund may occur slightly earlier than previously anticipated. At that point, ongoing payroll tax revenues are expected to cover only about 76% to 77% of the scheduled payouts.The average monthly reduction for retirees across the nation could be approximately $500.The average annual impact may result in a reduction of around $18,100 for a typical dual-income retired couple. The total economic impact translates to an immediate annual loss of $345 billion, affecting over 15% of the population in 47 states.The anticipated depletion date has been advanced due to declining birth rates, slower wage growth in relation to the economy, and the legislative effects of recent policy changes. Notably, increased spending from the Social Security Fairness Act—which expanded benefits for about 3 million government pension recipients—and tax code modifications from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act have hastened the drawdown of the trust fund.Since this reduction is a statutory consequence of an exhausted fund rather than a permanent cessation of the program, it is imperative for lawmakers to enact reforms to avert these cuts.Revenue Increases: Policymakers might consider eliminating or raising the current payroll tax earnings cap to impose taxes on high earners, or increasing the overall payroll tax rate of 12.4%.Benefit Adjustments: Congress could modify future cost-of-living calculations or gradually raise the full retirement age for younger generations. Proactive Financial Preparations include diversifying savings by maximizing contributions to options such as traditional or Roth IRAs and employer-sponsored 401(k) plans.Delaying claims: Postponing the filing of claims beyond the full retirement age can trigger delayed retirement credits, which would permanently enhance the baseline monthly benefit. 

The federal government is facing criticism over rising deficits and growing debt. Is it time for major changes to secure Canada's fiscal future? A new Fraser Institute proposal suggests tightening Old Age Security eligibility and raising the retirement age. Evan is joined by Jake Fuss, Director of Fiscal Studies at the Fraser Institute, to discuss the controversial idea.

This sermon, drawn from Psalm 71, presents a profound meditation on the nature of faith in advanced age, portraying it not as diminished but as deeply resilient and active. Centered on the psalmist's cries for divine faithfulness amid physical decline and spiritual assault, the message highlights the persistent challenges of doubt, weakness, and the fear of final defeat, yet counters them with unwavering assurance in God's constant presence, availability, and power. The preacher emphasizes that true faith in later years is marked by persevering hope, persistent praise, practical godliness, and bold public testimony, all grounded in God's unchanging character and the gospel's righteousness. Far from being a message only for the elderly, it is a call to all believers to sustain their trust in God's promises regardless of age or circumstance, affirming that faith, sustained by grace, overcomes every trial and leads to final vindication.

This episode of The Rizzuto Show starts the only way a true daily comedy show should: with public humiliation, shredded jeans, and one elderly witness silently watching Rizz eat absolute pavement outside the Wildwood post office.What begins as a simple “Hey honey, can you drop off these packages?” quickly becomes a full-blown middle-aged disaster movie. Rizz trips over a curb while carrying a giant box, launches packages across the parking lot, rips his jeans, and spends a solid 10 seconds on the ground questioning every life decision that led him there. No help. No sympathy. Just one old man staring from an SUV like he was witnessing nature take its course.And because this is The Rizzuto Show, the conversation somehow spirals into:the exact age when falling becomes medically concerning,why nobody looks cool hitting the ground,public embarrassment recovery strategies,and whether moving to Boca Raton is now inevitable.Meanwhile, Rafe contributes his own trauma after stepping barefoot into dog poop… TWICE… within 30 seconds. One pile was mystery poop. The other was homemade. There are Q-tips involved. There's bleach involved. There's emotional scarring involved.The gang also debates:whether you admit clogging a gas station toilet on a road trip,what happens if cartel money washes up on shore,the morality of keeping accidental extra cash from a cashier,shady stereotypes about car salesmen, lawyers, tow truck drivers, and real estate agents,and if you should narc on your boss's underage kid at the bar.Plus:Lern wants a boxy old-school car because modern vehicles “look like Pixar characters,”Scott continues operating as the neighborhood HOA nobody asked for,and Rafe may or may not become the unofficial “cool uncle” for the Rizzuto children.It's another completely normal day for your favorite daily comedy show, where every conversation starts somewhere reasonable and ends with somebody discussing bathroom disasters or federal crimes.Honestly, if you've ever fallen in public, stepped in something disgusting, lied after damaging a parked car, or debated laundering cartel money through a casino buffet… congratulations. You're one of us now.And yes — somehow this still counts as a daily comedy show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Learning to unmask, especially around people you've know for a while. 6. Autism, masking and culture 7. How do we build a network of friends and a community of support? 8. Resources and books, especially on late diagnosis in women? I think we could have done one video on each of these topics! Maybe we will?

Australians are living longer and longer, which is on one hand a beautiful thing. But on the other, prolonged old age is wreaking havoc. So how might we respond to this new demographic situation we find ourselves in?Lucinda Holdforth is a writer who specialises in looking at what makes good societies flourish, everything from manners to politics and equality.Most recently, she's set her sights on the unintended negative consequences following the extraordinary increase in life span around the world, particularly in Australia.In the past 50 years, human life expectancy across the globe has jumped from 46 years old to 73, and in Australia that number is even higher -- an Australian born today is likely to live until they are 84 years old.On the surface, living longer is a very good thing. It means more time spent with our loved ones, looking at the stars, feeling the sun, living.But prolonged old age can also be very lonely and painful, and, as Lucinda argues, it is costing society as a whole in many ways.She has seen this firsthand, as a daughter who supported her own parents in their long old age, and has some surprising suggestions about how we could do things differently to ease the impact on our economy, our medical system, our elderly and our youth.GOING ON AND ON: Why our longevity threatens our future is published by Simon & Schuster.This episode was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive Producer is Eliza Kirsch.It explores the sandwich generation, carers, women caring for parents, the elderly, dementia, Alzheimer's, Bryan Johnson, biohackers, Blue Zone, how to live longer, Mediterranean diet, tech bros, longevity, muscle mass, aging, deterioration, aged care, death, grief, how to live well, writing, books, old age, diseases of the elderly, tax, taxation, ageism, voting rights, voting age, lower the voting age.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Old age comes to all of us, and in today's culture, that time of life is not always well regarded. This week on The Bible Study Hour Dr. James Boice will be looking at Psalm 71. David is an old man looking back on a life of faithful service. What he concludes about life and old age can serve as a road map for us as well.

Old Age Security is the largest program expense in the federal budget and is a driving force behind the federal deficit. A new national poll shows 3/4 of Canadians, including seniors, support reform so that benefits are reduced for higher-income households, and the savings are repurposed to eliminate seniors' poverty and improve affordability for younger generations. Generation Squeeze founder, Dr. Paul Kershaw explains why OAS reform was once politically untouchable and how things have changed.

Rory McGowan speaks to Alan Graves, the Founder and Clinical Research Advisor at DoNotAge, about new research around what Brits want out of their old age - and how it's trending away from looking great to being healthy as the top priority. Alan knows what it's like to look older than he is, as a unhealthy lifestyle in his 20s meant that he looked like he was in his 40s. However, after founding DoNotAge, he's transformed his lifestyle and now is helping millions around the world do the same to help them be healthy and look younger.

When Kylie hit perimenopause, her body stopped responding the way it used to. The weight kept climbing. Energy disappeared. And after years of trying everything, she started seriously considering surgery, injections, and other extreme options. Then something unexpected happened. In just 10 weeks, without surgery or drastic diets, she began reversing years of frustration - and the results shocked even her. In this deeply personal episode, Justin and Kylie pull back the curtain on Kylie’s health reset: the frustration, the turning point, and the simple habits that are finally working after decades of struggle. If you’ve ever felt like your body is working against you, this conversation will feel both honest and hopeful. KEY POINTS Why perimenopause can make weight loss feel impossible The moment Kylie seriously considered surgery and medical interventions The surprising habit that changed everything: drinking more water Why “the scale” can be the worst measurement of progress The power of doing hard things with someone else Why most short-term fitness challenges fail How small consistent habits beat extreme solutions every time ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Build knowledge. Understand how your body works—especially during hormonal changes. Choose movement you enjoy. If you hate it, you won’t stick with it. Do it with someone. Consistency is easier when commitment is shared. Track progress beyond the scale. Photos and measurements tell a more accurate story. Focus on consistency, not intensity. Long-term adherence beats short-term extremes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

⚙️ Arthritis Isn't Random—It's MechanicalIf arthritis were simply caused by age, then every disc in your spine—being the same age—would wear down equally.But that's not what we see.I'll often show patients their X-rays and point out something like this:C5–C6: Disc thinning, bone spurs, degenerationC2–C3: Looks greatSame person.Same age.Same spine.So, what gives?At some point, a misalignment (subluxation) occurred at that segment, changing how it moved—and more importantly, how it didn't move.

We are caught in a cosmic battle unlike any military conflict in history; it is a battle for the mind against the deceptive schemes of the "Old Age." Rather than fighting people, we stand together in the armor of the King to guard the victory Christ has already won.

In this episode of arts24, Eve Jackson speaks to Moroccan filmmaker Maryam Touzani, whose intimate and quietly powerful cinema continues to explore love, identity and the tensions within Moroccan society. After "Adam" and "The Blue Caftan", she returns with her most personal film yet, "Calle Málaga" – a story of memory, mixed identity and belonging set in Tangier's historic Spanish community. At a time when debates around migration and identity feel increasingly polarised, Touzani brings the conversation back to something deeply human. The film is also a tender and rare meditation on ageing and desire – celebrating vitality, intimacy and dignity later in life in ways cinema seldom dares to portray.

Anna is one of the Bible's most unusual women. She, along with a man named Simeon, had spent a lifetime in loyal service to God and was finally able to meet her Messiah.

On this episode of The Disciple-Making Parent, we explore one of life's most avoided topics: death and dying.We'll listen to a recent sermon from Chap where he talks about how Christians shouldn't fear talking about our final departure and what it means to "run through the tape" rather than coast into the finish line. We examine five biblical principles for facing old age and death with faith and joy, drawing from Paul's final words in 2 Timothy 4. We discuss how death is not the end but a portal to something better, why we should anticipate suffering in our final years, and how to keep our eyes fixed on Christ and heaven even as our bodies decay. We also wrestle with the physical, emotional, and social suffering that comes with aging, and why we should strive for joy instead of becoming sour in our later years.This conversation challenges us to develop a biblical strategy for finishing well, longing for heaven, and glorifying God even in our dying.

THE TOWNSEND PLAN, FATHER COUGHLIN, AND THE THIRD PARTY THREAT Colleague David Pietrusza. Dr. Francis Townsend's popular plan for old-age pensions pressured Roosevelt, who disliked "the dole," into creating Social Security. Concurrently, Father Charles Coughlin, the influential "Radio Priest," turned against Roosevelt after feeling used and ignored, specifically following a meeting at Hyde Park arranged by Joe Kennedy. Coughlin allied with Townsend and Huey Long's successor, Gerald L.K. Smith, to form a third party aimed at throwing the election to the House of Representatives. Despite their massive radio audiences, these political amateurs failed to get on the ballot in key states like New York and California. NUMBER 3
