Fritz Coleman: Unassisted Living
We Baby Boomers have always been a revolutionary generation and I like to say that we’re now revolutionizing the spirit and style of aging.
Yet we can’t deny that we do face a number of challenges when it comes to life in our golden years. Nevertheless, these problems can be greatly diminished if we maintain our zest for life, curiosity and, most of all, our sense of humor. And that’s where our guest is a true expert!
Veteran weatherman for the NBC TV channel in Los Angeles, Fritz Coleman, has returned to his roots as a standup comedian and has recently recorded an irreverent and highly hilarious look at growing older. In fact, I’m 100% certain that Fritz’s reflections on aging will have you laughing out loud. His show is called Unassisted Living and is now playing on Tubi.
Moreover, I’m thrilled to have him join us on Feisty Side of Fifty Radio to share all about it. So, if you enjoy reflecting on your golden years with a big dose of humor and a sassy sense of fun, you’ll want to make sure you catch this show! -
Robert Wilson, From Strawberry Fields to Abbey Road: The Billy Shears Story
Every boomer out there remembers the famous British invasion of the 1960s and how those four mop tops stole the hearts of American teens everywhere. But then, in 1969, those hearts were crushed by the news that the “cute Beatle,” Paul, had been killed in an automobile accident back in 1966. Moreover, it was rumored that, to avoid worldwide shock and grief, the real Paul had been replaced by look-alike Billy Shears. How well we recall that devastating news. That is, until we found out later that the tale of Paul’s demise was all a hoax.
Join author and Beatle aficionado, Robert Wilson, as he shares all about his amazing tell-all, book exposing the real behind-the-scenes story of one of the most intriguing mysteries surrounding the Fab Four. It’s called From Strawberry Fields to Abbey Road: The Billy Shears Storyand you’re going to want to check this one out for sure! -

So good!!
What an amazing podcast. I did some research and recommended this to an aunt of mine a few months back and she has thanked me on multiple occasions for sending it to her. Just sent it over to my mom who is nearing the age of 50 as well and am hoping for her to receive the goodness and love that Eileen is providing for her audience!
Oh My!
Mary Eileen, I found your podcast quite by accident, but what a marvelous find. Being the boomer that I am, it was a joy to listen the the McCartneys (mom & daughter). Keep podcasting! Great stuff for us lifelong students! Margo Lovett
