OK Boomer with Robert

"OK Boomer!"

OK Kid,

Boomers, having problems with finances, or with your health, or upcoming problems with the relatives during the holidays? The solution: brainstorming, but not the way most groups brainstorm. 

Craig Paxon of the consulting group Visionary Horizen's talks about how to brainstorm...and actual...

"OK Boomer!"

 

Opening

OK Kid,

For some of us the Holidays are rougher than the rest of the year.  So some of us need a little Encourementology with Kendell Boysen.

When you listen to the Boomer newscast, you might be listening to a certain story and say, "What? That doesn't make sense!"  But maybe it does.

 Allee Quick who runs The News Literacy Project, and she says news stories can be misinterpreted! 

Remember 2001 a Space Ody...

It's the most famous recording, you've never heard!

We'll explain how a small radio station in a rural area broke a story about the crime of the century by being the first to reveal that Lee Harvey Oswald was a suspect in the assassination of John F Kennedy on November 22nd, 1963.

 

OK Boomer contributor Bob Smith reports.

Both Bob Smith and OK Boomer host Robert Rickman worked for that little radio ...

"OK Boomer!" said the kid over my shoulder. "OK kid, here are two things you won't have to worry about for a long time. Medicare and gas prices. We'll look at both in a few minutes," I said. Then Kendall Boyson says if you want things to change...start with yourself. Lexi on the Millennial Moment introduces us to a new word. (no, it's not nasty)   And on to more serious matters.   We'll hear legendary news reporter Edwa...

Next, on OK Boomer. Medicare counselor Kim Shefner will give us a brief overview of Medicare plans.

 

 

 

And Jill Graskowitz is planning a weekend blow out with "The Girls." 

She asked Robert Rickman to post bail if things get out of hand!

Then the Mad Hippie was in to criticize Robert's gait.  Yes, The Mad Hippie thinks Robert walks like a bird.

Plus, Bob and Marcia Smith will join us brain strengthening teasers, Kendall Boyson ...

OK Kid,

Speaking of which...

I blanche every time I hear my voice from 47-yeasrs ago!   For those of you who were not blessed with a broadcast career, there is probably little evidence of what kind of a kid you were back then.

This will be hard to believe but I was interviewed by this fellow-Roger Ramjet in 1976!

Also, a senior center in a small town had to move several times for several different reasons.  We'll hear about that.

...

  The man on the left wants to TAKE OVER Nashville. His name is Austin Lane and he tells OK Boomer how, and why. Then, comes a segment of OK that wins the prize for originality ORRRR  the Rusty Mic award...or both. All we can say is that Robert Rickman did the pouring.   Looking upward, Bob Baer talks about the 2024 Eclipse crossroads of America.   Now you've heard the word...Encouragementology, on OK Boomer. But how did t...

"OK BOOMER!" says the kid.

"OK Kid," says Robert.

Let's talk about something that is facing some Boomers right now--Alzheimer's.  But research shows you may be able do something about it.

We'll be hearing from Nurse Practitioner Cindy Womack of the Smith Center for Alzheimer's Disease and Research and treatment in a few minutes.

And who might wind up caring for an Alzheimer's patient, or someone else with a disability?  The Boomer...

Let's get the hard part out of the way and talk about the disease everybody is sick and tired of.  In some cases...literally.  We're talking about Covid.

Cindy Womack is a nurse-practitioner at Smith Center for Alzheimer's Disease Research and Treatment.  Cindy Womack talks about the connection between Covid19 and Alzheimer's.

Then let's turn to a hobby of too many Boomers which is social isolation. Jill Graskowitz of Club 60 wil...

 

 

What do General Z’s think of we Boomers? To get an answer I asked Millennial Emily Lake who says Generation Z is being too tough on the Boomers, but Emily adds that Boomers have their faults too.

 

We’d like to welcome Jill Graskowitz a regular contributor to OK Boomer. This week Jill will admit that Smart phones can make us dumb...but they can also make us smart! J...

There was this business card I needed to design but...It seemed to be so COMPLICATED!  And I thought and thought...and finally called her while on-the-air one day...

 

Terri Sterling Donovan is an expert communicator and anti-procrastinator. Soon.... 

That's next on OK Boomer with Robert!  Where we're "Keepin' ...

Shopping is easy for millennials and Generation Z.  But many Boomers are left out. So says Jorge del Cario who runs a website called FAR OUT...that’s designed to make businesses Boomer friendly.

Mark Twain allegedly said that history doesn’t repeat itself but DOES rhyme.

Our Bob Smith has an interview with then Us Congressman Paul Simon...recorded in 1975. What about that interview rhymes with the events of today?
