    Rebel Heart: Ellen R.B. Smith on Finding Strength, Laughter, and Belonging in a Turbulent Youth

    Welcome to The Not Old Better Show’s Art of Living series. I’m your host, Paul Vogelzang, and today we’re about to dive into a remarkable story of resilience, humor, and self-discovery. Our guest is Ellen R.B. Smith, author of a deeply personal and captivating new memoir that chronicles her coming-of-age journey amid societal upheaval. From an idyllic childhood that took a sudden turn after her parents’ divorce to being labeled a "troublemaker" by her small town, Ellen’s story is raw, honest, and ultimately inspiring. But beneath the rebellious exterior is a young soul grappling with loneliness, searching for acceptance, and learning how to stand up for herself—often through laughter, tears, and unexpected friendship. This isn’t just a memoir; it’s a celebration of resilience, inclusion, and the unbreakable bonds we forge in life’s most challenging moments. With wit and poignancy, Ellen shows us how life's struggles can become stepping stones, and how even the darkest times hold the potential for growth. Today, Ellen will share why she wrote this memoir—not for revenge, but to offer hope to those struggling in broken homes, feeling like outsiders, or just trying to find their place in the world. Whether it’s the hilarity of youthful escapades or the weight of profound realizations, Ellen’s story serves as a powerful reminder that we’re all a work in progress. And sometimes, the most important lessons are hidden beneath the surface of a good joke. So, get ready for a conversation filled with laughter, insight, and inspiration. I’m thrilled to welcome Ellen R.B. Smith to The Not Old Better Show. My thanks to Ellen Smith for her generous time today.  My thanks to Executive Producer Sam Heninger for all his work in keeping our show as good as it is, and as good as it can be.  My thanks to you our wonderful audience here on radio and podcast.  Be well, be safe and let’s talk about better.  The Not Old Better Show on radio and podcast.

    Secrets, Scandal, and Conflict: Robert Harris on Precipice and the Affair that Shook a Nation

    Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, on radio and podcast, I’m your host, Paul Vogelzang. Today, we’re diving into a world on the verge of collapse—where passion, politics, and peril collide in the summer of 1914. The world was inching toward the Great War, and in the heart of Britain, secrets were being exchanged that could have changed everything. Our guest today is the brilliant Robert Harris, whose latest novel, available on Apple Books, Precipice, masterfully intertwines history and fiction to bring this harrowing moment to life. Harris, renowned for his storytelling and meticulous research, takes us inside a clandestine affair between the British Prime Minister, H. H. Asquith, and the young, aristocratic Venetia Stanley. But this is far more than a tale of forbidden love—it's a thriller that exposes the fragility of power, the dangerous intersection of personal and political, and how the secrets of a single woman could threaten an entire nation. In Precipice, Robert Harris paints a vivid portrait of a society on the brink, capturing not just the politics but the people whose choices echo through history. Today, we’ll discuss the extraordinary research behind this novel, the real-life affair that could have toppled a government, and the timeless lessons it offers for our world today.   We’ll also discuss ‘CONCLAVE’film is releasing in theaters in early November.  The adaptation of Harris’ book, starring Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, Sergio Castellitto, and Isabella Rossellini.

    Churchill’s Citadel: The Secret Meetings at Chartwell that Shaped History - Smithsonian Associate, Katherine Carter

    Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associatesseries on radio and podcast. I’m your host, Paul Vogelzang, and today’s episode takes us to the heart of one of history’s most critical periods—a time when the future of Europe, and the world, hung in the balance.  But rather than battlefields or the halls of power, our story today begins in the quiet countryside of Kent, England, at a place called Chartwell—the beloved home of Winston Churchill. In the 1930s, Churchill was not the wartime hero we know today. Churchill was a man out of government, politically isolated, and with few allies. Yet, it was at Chartwell, far from the center of British politics, that Churchill launched his most crucial campaign—sounding the alarm against Nazi Germany. It was here, behind closed doors, that he convened with great minds and trusted advisers—figures like Albert Einstein, T. E. Lawrence, and even American diplomat Joseph Kennedy—seeking intelligence, building alliances, and preparing for the storm he knew was coming. But we have Katherine Carter today and we’ll talk about Churchill’s Chartwell.  Katherine Carter knows Chartwell better than anyone. She’s spent over a decade managing the house and its remarkable collections. Katherine joins us to discuss her latest book, available at Apple Books, Churchill’s Citadel: Chartwell and the Gatherings Before the Storm. In this fascinating work, Katherine Carterunveils the little-known meetings that took place there and the critical influence they had on Churchill’s eventual rise to power and the course of history. Get ready to explore the untold stories of Churchill’s quiet yet powerful citadel. And now, let’s welcome Katherine Carter to The Not Old Better Show. Stay tuned! You won’t want to miss this incredible look into a pivotal moment in history. My thanks to Katherine Carter, her generosity today, and her wonderful new book Churchill’s Citadel.  Katherine Carter will be presenting at Smithsonian Associates and the title of her presentation is ‘Churchill At Chartwell,’  please check out our show notes today for details about Catherine Carter at Smithsonian Associates.  My thanks to Smithsonian for their ongoing support of the show and for all they do.  My thanks to Executive Producer Sam Heninger, his work on sound design and making the show the success it is.  My thanks to all of you online and via terrestrial radio.  Be well, be safe an let’s talk about better!  The Not Old Better Show.  Thanks everyone and we’ll see you next time.  Hosted by Ausha.

    Reversing Hair Loss: Lars Skjøth’s Revolutionary Approach to Restoring Confidence and Transforming Lives

    Welcome back to The Not Old Better Show, Prevention Magazine Healthy Living Interview Series, I'm your host, Paul Vogelzang. Today, we’re diving into a topic that affects millions of men and women around the world—hair loss. Whether it’s thinning strands or full-blown baldness, losing your hair can shake your confidence, your self-esteem, and even your sense of identity. But what if there were a way to not just halt that hair loss, but actually reverse it, and better yet—without wigs, transplants, or extreme measures? Today, we have an extraordinary guest who has dedicated his life to answering that very question. Joining us is Lars Skjøth, the founder of Harklinikken, a revolutionary hair clinic that’s changing the way we think about hair restoration. Now, when we think of a clinic, we might imagine a sterile, medicinal space. But Lars had something else in mind—a sanctuary where patients can feel comfortable, supported, and hopeful about their future hair health. With clinics in Beverly Hills, New York, Florida, Iceland, the UAE, and Denmark, Harklinikken is now a global force in scalp wellness. Lars didn’t start out in hair science. He was a commercial airline pilot who, in his spare time, turned his own frustrations with hair loss into a lifelong obsession. Today, his clinics offer treatments that are highly personalized—yes, every treatment is bespoke—using extracts from nature, tailored specifically for each individual’s scalp and hair condition. And these aren’t just products off a shelf; these are formulas that have taken Lars decades to perfect. But what really sets Harklinikken apart? Well, clients like Ricki Lake, who after battling hair thinning for 30 years, found real results. Her story is a testament to how life-changing these treatments can be. It’s not just about restoring hair; it’s about restoring confidence and well-being. In today’s conversation, we’ll dive deep into Lars’ fascinating journey from young scientist in Denmark, mixing ingredients in his kitchen, to building an internationally renowned hair clinic that’s giving hope to people around the world. We’ll explore the science behind Harklinikken’s success, the importance of a healthy scalp, and how Lars continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in hair restoration. So sit back, relax, and let’s talk hair with Lars Skjøth. My thanks to Lars Skjøth. My thanks to Prevention Magazine and Harklinikken for sponsoring today’s episode.  Please check out our show notes today for more details about the BETTER20 discount through Dec. 21 at Harklinikken.  My thanks to Sam Heninger and to our wonderful audience here on radio and podcast.

    How Bookworms Beat The Nazis: Smithsonian Associates Interview Series

    Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates edition. I’m Paul Vogelzang, and I’m so glad you’re joining us today. At the height of World War II, the United States faced one of its greatest challenges: the urgent need for intelligence to help win the war against Nazi Germany. But who would answer the call? Soldiers and generals were obvious choices, but what if I told you that some of the most effective spies weren’t military men at all? What if some of the heroes behind enemy lines were actually scholars, librarians, and literature professors? It sounds like something out of a spy novel, but it’s true. Today, we have a fascinating and thought-provoking episode that will take us deep into one of the most unexpected stories of World War II. Our guest is historian Elyse Graham, here to share insights from her remarkable new book Book and Dagger: How Scholars and Librarians Became the Unlikely Spies of World War II. Elyse’s research uncovers how the U.S. Office of Strategic Services, the precursor to the CIA, turned to academia—recruiting some of the sharpest minds from American universities to carry out top-secret operations. These “bookworms” went undercover, decoding enemy communications, hunting spies, and gathering intelligence that helped change the course of the war. Among them were Joseph Curtiss, a literature professor who tracked down German agents, and Adele Kibre, an archivist who smuggled valuable documents out of neutral Sweden—while the world watched in suspense. This story is not just a testament to the power of knowledge, but a reminder of how intellectual curiosity and a love of books can make a real difference in the world—even in times of war. So, what can we learn from these brilliant, unexpected spies? How did their work shape modern intelligence and even American higher education? And why is this story so relevant today, as libraries and the humanities face increasing pressure? Today, Elyse Graham will answer these questions and more, as we explore the incredible story of how bookworms helped beat the Nazis. Stay tuned—it’s an episode you won’t want to miss. My thanks to Dr. Elyse Graham for her generous time and check out Dr. Graham’s upcoming Smithsonian Associates presentation titled, “How Bookworms Beat The Nazis.” Check our show notes today for more information about Dr. Graham’s Smithsonian Associates presentation. My thanks to Smithsonian for all their support of the show. My thanks to Executive Producer Sam Heninger. My thanks to you, our Smithsonian Associates audience on radio and podcast.
