  • Summary

  • Why are we howling at the moon? In the 60's and 70's our generation led a cultural revolution. Now that we are in our 60's and 70's we see another cultural revolution led by folks like us who refuse to act their age. We may be Old Dogs, but we can still learn New Tricks. This podcast celebrates that revolution. It features offbeat news items, social observations, adventure tips, shameless humor, and interviews with contemporaries who are still engaged with life.

    The Old Dogs review some of the reasons why people quit doing their podcast. We look back to two special years in our collective past – The summer of love and the year that changed America. And we take a moment to de-bunk some of the more prevalent myths about aging. Once again, we conclude by offering four selections from our treasury of Old Dogs conversations.

    Episode 149: "How do I close my Daylight Saving account?"
    Mar 19 2025

    The Old Dogs ramble about the continuing silly practice of Daylight Saving Time. We report on a lady who made an electrified sign her home sweet home. We present another edition of Ads ‘n Fads. We introduce the disturbing fact that some people will buy a very expensive strawberry. We wonder what still possesses the government to support Daylight Saving Time. And we suggest an old but effective way to resolve differences of opinion.
