Episode Transcript

(00:01):
Remember when it was impossible to misplacethe TV remote because you were the TV
remote. Remember when music sounded likethis, Remember when social media was truly
social? Hey, John, how'sit going today? Well, this show
is all about you. This isfifty plus with Doug Pike, helpful information

(00:28):
on your finances, good health,and what to do for fun. Fifty
plus brought to you by the UTHealth Houston Institute on Aging Informed Decisions for
a healthier, happier life, andby Texas Indoor Air Quality Specialists because clean
air is healthier air. And nowfifty plus with Doug Pike. All right,

(00:50):
two day edition of the program startsright now. And boy, I
had a full weekend. I didmy shows or Saturday and Sunday over on
KBM ME and got to some reallygood stuff, actually, some of which
I'll bring up here later in theprogram. I think, if we get
to it, I am I'm convincedthat our generation, well a couple of

(01:11):
generations we represent, I would Iwould place us in the hardest, working,
proudest to be American generation or twowhoever walked the planet. And and
we're about to enter Holly, I'mnot gonna I'm not gonna mess with the
markets and weather right now either,because I think that it came to me

(01:34):
over the weekend that this audience prettymuch knows where they where they can find
a weather forecast if they need it, and they know enough about the markets
to either be thrilled to be inthem or glad to be out of them,
And so I just don't see itmaking that much difference. If oil
takes a major turn in one directionor another in a day, I may

(01:59):
bring that up. But otherwise,for example, today it's still about twenty
dollars higher than it should be perbarrel, but it hasn't moved that much
in the past week or so.It's still north of eighty five dollars,
and with whoever knows what's going togo on over in the Middle East,
it may even surge much higher.I hope it doesn't, and if it

(02:23):
does, I hope our president hasthe good sense to open the taps over
here and let our production come backto where it was. We need that,
we absolutely need it right now.This we've already suffered enough anyway,
Our generations maybe about to enter thelast big fight to maintain this country strength

(02:49):
and prominence in the world after whatnavigating inflation that's pushed groceries up more than
forty percent and gas guess about thesame. Really, when I thought about
the numbers over the past three anda half four years, it's just remarkable
how hard in the wrong direction mostof this has turned, and how many

(03:12):
people actually believe that we're better offnow somehow. I guess. I guess
they don't eat food. I guessthey don't drive their cars. I guess
they don't buy clothes or anything else. They just live in a bubble somewhere.
Concerns me a lot when I hearpeople in their twenties and their thirties

(03:34):
screaming about all their woes, theproblems in this country, when they've lived
their entire lives enjoying a level ofopportunity and potential for success that's just unparalleled
in the world. They wine andscream about how bad things are while they

(03:55):
make outrageous decisions with their own moneyand expect somebody else to foot the bill.
They blame everybody but themselves for whateverimaginary struggles are on their minds that
day. But what would I know. I'm only sixty eight. My family
grew up right here in Houston,right down in the right in the middle
really economically, and we had whatwe needed. But I'm one hundred percent

(04:24):
sure that my parents both passed awaynever really probably having what they wanted.
For both themselves and for my sisterand me. We both done alright.
But I know that I know thatthey sacrificed a lot for us, just
as my wife and I are doingfor my son right now. And I

(04:46):
hope someday he appreciates it like Ido in hindsight now that I'm much older
than the sixteen he is right nowand feeling pretty full of himself. He's
a good kid. He's a goodkid. He is, he makes good
grace, he's a good athlete,and and it's fun when he's in a
good mood, which is something mostof the time, really and he's getting

(05:11):
better. He still doesn't have acar, and maybe that's some maybe that
has something to do with it.I don't know, but we are going
to be looking here very very soon, and I think we've kind of narrowed
down the choices and what we're goingto do to make sure that whatever he
gets, if he does bang itup a little bit, won't be too
bitter a pill for me to swallowor my wife seven. No, yeah,

(05:34):
we could do well. I tellyou what we can do, by
the way, and I'll watch theseduring the break. We have installed for
your for your communicating pleasure, poundtwo fifty, which is it's all you
have to dial on your phone.You don't have to remember the whole phone
number. Just I'll pound two fiftyif you want to ask me to in

(05:54):
the future cover something, if youwant to respond shortly, toward well,
toward the end at least of asegment. I don't want to break up
a question and answer with a doctoror another caregiver or whoever or somebody whatever.
But if you have a question,at least pose it on pound two
to fifty. What you do isyou dial pound two to fifty. Then

(06:15):
you say fifty plus when they askfor your secret password, and then you
got about fifteen seconds to plead whatevercase you want to plead. Ask what
you want to ask, Say whatyou want to say, whether you think
I'm right or wrong about this generation, whether you think I'm right or wrong
about the younger generations. Whatever itis that I say it if it moves

(06:38):
you so that you would dial fourdigits and speak a few words. I
would be greatly appreciative. I wantto know what you think. I want
to know where you are with allof this. Ah. Something this bunch
is never experienced, and I praythey never do, despite their perpetual whining,
is an actual large scale attack onthis nation, on its within its

(07:01):
borders. That's something we really haven'tseen, going all the way back to
nine to eleven. That was relativelyfew people who managed to bring this country
to its knees for quite some time. We were scared to move, we
were scared of what might be comingnext. And all of that happened very

(07:25):
fast and cost a lot of Americanstheir lives. And now this president we
have has just ushered in good heavens. Who knows how many people are over
here trying to come up with aplan to do something even worse, while
a lot of this country worries abouttheir cell phone coverage not reaching out,

(07:49):
how it should I have to takea break. Well, already, it's
a special day, will and I'mgoing to tell you about it. Well,
I'll wait a little later to tellyou about it, because I really
want to celebrate it with you.And I see that you're already celebrating it.

plus with Doug Pike. Hi,welcome back fifty plus. Thanks for listening.

(09:43):
Certainly do appreciate it. On thispretty cloudy if I must say,
Tuesday afternoon, in this segment,at Bright said, it's not supposed to
rain, by the way. Inthis segment, we're going to talk about
Medicare and Medicare advantage, which arevital important to meellions of Americans quite possibly
in some cases ultimately who knows lifeand death. Maybe I don't know if

(10:05):
it's that serious to explain how eachof them works and whom for whom they
best work. I'm going to enlistBonnie share in a board certified patient advocate
who's been in that position for tenplus years. Welcome aboard, Bonnie.
Hey, Doug, how you doing? I'm doing all right? So first
let's establish kind of what a boardcertified patient advocate is and what someone such

(10:30):
as yourself does on behalf of seniorsright well, A professional patient advocacy began
with two national organizations about in twothousand and nine. I started my business
in twenty fourteen, and then intwenty eighteen there was a Board certification test
offered, so we have become officialBoard certified Patient advocates. Good. We

(10:56):
have to do this every three yearswith thirty continuing education credits, which I'm
struggling to do right now. Andthat's that's who we are. Who in
this audience would most benefit from availingthemselves of your services and may not even
realize that. Okay, So wedo a variety of things. You know,

(11:20):
if somebody's having trouble talking to theirdoctor, you know, I've gone
into clinics with people, you know, sometimes they don't understand what the doctor's
saying. I've gone into hospitals becausesometimes things aren't going so well. They're
either I've dealt with medical bills,you know, insurance issues, you know,

(11:41):
the whole range of healthcare problems thatpeople run into. But I must
say that people can contact us earlierresents later it's much better sooner in the
process. What kind of what kindof a fee structure. Does does advocacy
have I'm unfamiliar. I'm sorry,I just I'm just trying to figure out

(12:03):
how it works. Sure. Yeah, it depends on the situation. You
know a lot of times, firstof all, I want to get into
it to see if I can helpsomeone, you know, and we all
we all schedule it differently, andyou know, depends on the situation,
depends on the person, depends ona lot of different things. You know,

(12:26):
if it's if it's like a longdrawn out appeal, thing might be
you know, quite a few hoursof consultation. Uh. Sometimes I can
get in I can see what thewhat's up with the medical bill and fix
it in like an hour or ohwow, it depends those are free.
Huh, I'm kidding. I'm justkidding. Oh no, I'm just kidding

(12:48):
with you, Bonnie. Don't worry. So let's let's dig in a little
bit and talk about the the biggestdifferences between medicare and Medicare advantage. Because
I'm not there yet, I'm notusing any of that, but when I
do, I want to know whatI'm looking at. Oh yeah, oh
yeah, well I am using it. Okay. In addition, to being
a patient advocate. So FYI willdisclosure. Original Medicare is what we all

(13:15):
get when we've done so many workhours, you know, so many work
credits that comes to us at agesixty five. So original Medicare is offered
to everyone. A. Part Ashould be free if you've done the work
credits. Party depends on it startslike right now at one hundred and seventy

(13:39):
four a month. And if youbut if you're like making over like two
hundred thousand dollars joint, you know, failing right, it can go up
from there, but there's financial aidfor that. I mean people, you
know, people are like, wellone hundred and seventy four wow, but

(14:01):
you know they can that can flyfor financial aid. Yeah. Somebody has
to quit work for whatever reasons andhas to rely on this one hundred and
seventy four dollars might might mean thedifference between groceries No groceries, Yeah,
and they got to sign up forPlan D. Okay, So you spent
part A part with Original Medicare,Part A, Part B, and part

(14:22):
D. A friend of mine says, the way you remember it is Part
A you go to a hospital,Part B you want your children to be
a doctor. And Part D isfor drugs. Oh okay, okay,
that's help. Yeah, that's alphabetMedicare stuff coming into play with all this

(14:45):
good Heavens Board Certified Patient Advocate Bonniehere and here on fifty plus. I
can't imagine anything related to medicine thatif you if you peel away enough layers,
there's just nothing that doesn't come downto the money. And other than
that one hundred and seventy four dollarsdollars, what about everything else in the
alphabet and all these supplements that wesee advertised on television, where do they

(15:05):
play into this? Now, supplementsare different than Medicare advantage, Okada advantage.
Yeah, we haven't gotten to thatyet. Yeah, so Medicare advantage.
It kind of rolls up A,B, and D into what's called
Parts C, like C for cat. Okay, so I'm gonna need some

(15:31):
cards. Okay. So it's actuallycalled Parts C and it's offered by like
individual health plans, like an UnitedHealthcare, you know that sort of thing.
They kind of they kind of goby Medicare rules, but they said

(15:52):
a lot of their own rules andregulations, and they had their own network.
Most people go with Medicare advantage,the HMOs, which are local,
which are local so that if theylike a vacation home, they'll like usually
get two different plans, like yeah, if there's snowbirds, you know,

(16:15):
like so like they go to Coloradoor something, they'll get a Medicare advantage
up there, and Americare advantage herein Houston, because the HMOs are generally
more affordable and they also are local. Right now, the PPOs, there's
not so many people that rolling thosebecause they're kind of pricey, but they

(16:37):
have more they have more options,so but they've got a different deductible now
they can set their own deductible.And there's been some issues with someny.
I'm not mean, got about twentyseconds left, so for me, that's
quite all right. You've been you'vebeen very helpful. Yeah, okay,

(17:00):
all right, Yeah, I tellyou what. Let me wrap this up
and then maybe we'll come back forparts EBC, F G H I,
J. K Lemeno and P.Yes, indeed, Bonnie, thank you
so very much. This is reallyhelpful. How can they get a hold
of you? Where do they findyou? Real quickly? Houston Health Advocacy
if they got a Houston health advocacy. They will find me great questioning health

(17:23):
advocacy. Thank you so very much, Bonnie Sharon, all right, Bobby,
Oh my goodness. There's so muchthere and just so little time to
cover it. We're going to haveto do a second segment at least with
Bonnie. I think all the wayout, I'll tell you about Primo Doors
in case you haven't heard me talkabout them before. This is the company.
My wife and I are getting moreand more excited. We're getting closer

(17:45):
and closer to the delivery and installationof our brand new door. And I
think it's going to beautiful. Ireally do. Solid wood door, got
a nice finish, a little contemporarylook to it, but still if that
makes any sense at all, itmade sense to us after we sat down
with Jason over there and let himguide us through the thousands of original options

(18:10):
you can pick from wood doors,iron doors, fiberglass doors, all these
different handle sets and just all thesestained color all of that thousands of options,
and he helped us kind of narrowit down, and then we took
it from there and we decided ona door with a lot of help from
them. They're very good at whatthey do. I recommend and I always

(18:32):
will you. First, you goto the website premodors dot com. You
look at the before and after pictures, you get all excited. Somebody goes
out to the front of the houseand snaps a picture, and then you
set up an appointment to go talkto them at the showroom over on North
Post, very close to where Iam, by the galleria. You go
in there, you sit down,and that person whoever you're talking to in

(18:53):
there will slowly get to know youa little bit and then eventually start saying,
well, you know, I thinkfor you guys, this would be
really nice, and they'll show youa few doors he or she will whoever
you get to talk to over there, and once they do that, then
you can really whittle down. They'llget you down to six' eight maybe
ten of them, and then youcan make it a much easier process,

(19:17):
and all of a sudden you're gonnabe going, wow, I can get
that door, but can I affordit? And then well, yes,
you can. Very competitive pricing forthe quality of products you're gonna get out
of there, it's unparalleled. It'sa family owned and operated company, been
in the door business in Houston formore than twenty years. Their installers are
all professional door installers. They're notgonna be at somebody's house earlier doing a

(19:41):
washing machine and then they're gonna comedo your door and then they're gonna put
in some windows later on. No, these are door installers. And I've
seen some of the challenges that they'vehad. Jason showed me pictures of that
too, and they have come throughwith flying collars. Use that tax refund
for something beautiful. Make your houselook good better than it looks right now.
Probably primodoors dot com is the websiteprimodors dot Com aged to perfection.

(20:08):
This is fifty plus with Doug Pike. Segment three starts right now. Thanks
for giving me this hour of yourafternoon. It's lunch hour. Traditionally I'm
eating a little bit later usually nowthan I was. Oh, by the

(20:30):
way, Will and I see you'redoing it today. Is where your pajamas
to work today? And I mustsay that is a lovely teddy you selected.
What are you talking about, Dougs, Well, I'm just talking about
what you wore to work. Ididn't realize you even knew it was where
pajamas to work. You know whatI did do this weekend? There's no
telling. I. Well, Imean I did a couple of cool things
actually, but I did wear sweatpantsall weekend. Sweatpants all weekend going out.

(20:56):
No plaid pajama bottoms, No,but they were they were sweatpant.
This was a formal occasion then,yeah, of course, but I did
do something cool this weekend. Holdon grace, weatpants. Yeah, man,
that's just that's actually old school.So you're you're doing what we used
to do when I was young.No shirt? Okay, what were those

(21:18):
other things you were getting to?Well, I'm scared. This weekend,
my girlfriend and I went to herschool because they were hatching ducklings. Get
out of here. I went goneto that and I it was just it
was just my girlfriend and I andwe went in and we saw the incubator
and we saw that one of themhad hatched, and then underneath that one

(21:41):
another one had had to get outof sitting on it at the shell on
its head. And then so wetook yeah, we took the first one
out. We put into a littleenclosure with the heat lamp and all that,
and then we had to let theother one dry for another twenty four
hours, and because it and saton for the first twenty four hours of

(22:02):
life. So that doesn't sound likethat one's a little funny bath. It
was a little funky, that's forsure. But both of them are very
cute, and it's it's been onthe mind. Yeah, never trusted duckling
with that little top of the shellhat on. If it's sitting on you,
it's gonna do something A real egghead, if you will, what a

(22:23):
foul move on its part. Oh, I just said that. Okay,
well, yeah, that's kind ofcool. Though. How many How many
eggs were there? I think shehad about eight? Well, so I
actually believe it or not? Well, I have a related story. Hold
on, where did it go?There? It is right there. Family
in Oklahoma got their nine year oldson and octopus for his birthday. Wow,

(22:48):
I know that's pretty special. Huh. So they put it in the
aquarium and they go back in there. I don't know how many days after
they sang Happy Birthday and blew outthe candles. But what they found in
that container in that aquarium was notan octopus. It was mama octopus.

(23:10):
And for all the tea in China. How many babies eight fifty oh fifty,
eight hundred and eight legs in theaquarium at that point is a wild
Yeah. So they're kind of they'rekind of stuck on what to do.
And I'm sure they've already called thepet store and said, hey mm,
we're gonna return some of this,yeah octopus you sold us. M'm ringing

(23:33):
turn maybe forty nine. You knowwhat they need to do is get in
touch with some octopus farm. Nowwhat do you think that I don't know
what an octopus goes for and apet store find out for us, and
then multiply that by fifty and Ithink those people are losing. They're just
missing out on a fantastic business opportunity. If it's not illegal to sell OCTOPI

(24:00):
I think that's the plural. Allright, let me go back to something
a little bit bizarre until we'll findthat. And I was talking earlier about
how thank God that we have nothad to experience a full scale war on
our soil. And I hope itnever happens. I really do. I
pray it never happens. However,when it does happen, all these young

(24:26):
people who have been worried about suchrelatively trivial things that they want to argue
about, and they want to justthey want to stamp their feet and scream
and holler. All of that stuff'sgoing to go behind them, because in
a real world, cities get leveled, neighborhoods, neighborhoods get turned to rubble.
People who live there either they eitherflee before the bombs fall with whatever

(24:48):
they can grab and carry, orthey die because they either wouldn't or couldn't
leave their homes. And that's afrightening concept that nobody in this country,
no matter how loud they're whining abouthow something they got wasn't just right at
the restaurant or whatever, or somethingin their education doesn't jive with the way

(25:10):
they think and feel. They gettriggered by things that in a truly war
torn country wouldn't even be on thetable. You wouldn't even think to talk
about these things. But they wantto cry and wine. And it drives
me crazy, it really does.It's kind of wheels us around to the
board. Are really our lack ofsecurity there, Whether our president wants to

(25:33):
acknowledge it or not, he's usheredinto our country, an entire army of
young men, at least some ofwhom I can be pretty confident, or
meeting secretly with the intent of physicallydestroying our country. We're already working on
emotionally and mentally destroying it ourselves.We're just bickering and infighting instead of rallying
around each other. I wish wewould even providing these people food and shelter

(25:57):
and transportation, loaded debit cars,all this stuff make them comfortable while they're
plotting against us. We're not quitethere yet, really honestly, but and
so I'm not This is not chickenlittle doomsday stuff. I'm just telling you
we're not that far from a tippingpoint either, at which the kind of
the lies we've been fed catch upwith us and we lack the backbone to

(26:19):
respond before it's too late. That'swhat I'm a little afraid of. There's
gonna be so many arguments and discussionsof things that really don't matter long term
that we'll miss the stuff that does. And it's gonna be tough. But
enough of that doom and gloom.I'll skip over the markets and all of
that stuff again. Now we havethat news or the business report, right,

(26:41):
So I don't have to do thatanymore. That's good. I'll let
them do it and take the blamewhen they're wrong. So all the way
down in Australia there is a scientistwho has an ophthalmologist says he's using cell
replication through three D printing to createtransplantable cornyas that ultimately could could eliminate blindness
in millions of people. At present, there is only one cornea donor available

(27:07):
worldwide for every seventy people who needone. I'll share more on that as
it comes available. Also, Isaw where scientists now are growing retina cells
in the lab, and there's aninjection being trialed that can reverse blindness that's
caused by a very rare medical andgenetic disorder. So good things happening for

(27:27):
those of us who have problems withour vision. Hang in there, there
may be a cure soon. MoodyGardens. I will be down there April
twenty six and eighty and eighty Apriltwenty six and twenty seventh for the third
annual fly Fishing Film Festival. ThereI'm am seeing again. I had a

(27:48):
blast last year, saw some amazingfilms for two nights this year. This
time around, on the twenty sixand twenty seventh of the month, two
weekends from now, there will betwo two different showings of entirely different films,
one on Saturday, one on Sunday, both spectacular. I can assure
you come down, enjoy the camaraderie, get yourself a little embibment from the

(28:14):
cash bar, and if you're notdriving home that night, just go ahead
until you run out of cash andgo back and spend the night at Moody
Gardens. They've got some packages availablefor people who want to come down and
make a weekend of it with thefamily or whatever. It's a very family
friendly film festival, if you'll pardonthe alliteration. Beautiful films about fly fishing

(28:34):
mostly, but there's a lot ofjust beautiful nature in all of these films.
They're fantastically done. I strongly recommendit for anybody who loves the outdoors,
loves the water, and even asremotely interested in fly fishing. It's
not all about the fishing. Thisis about nature and about fantastic places around

(28:55):
the world to see it being done. Moodygardens dot org. Go there get
some information. It's only fifteen bucksa ticket. That's nothing compared to the
what you're gonna see on the largestscreen in the entire state of Texas Moodygardens
dot org. Go there, checkit out. Moodygardens dot org. What's
life without a net? I suggestyou go to bed, sleep it off.

(29:19):
Just wait until the show's over,Sleepy. Back to Doug Pike as
fifty plus continues. All right,welcome back, fourth and final segment.
How about those astros come on?Really, I I Am not ready to

(29:44):
worry about them at all yet.However, if we can't get this this
ship back on the right course,it's gonna be very difficult come about August
to just watch what could be Iwould say, an unnecessary I don't think

(30:06):
they're out of it, there's noway. I mean, we just barely
started the season. I'm not concernedyet, but it will be nice to
get everyone back on board, andespecially our pitching staff righted, so that
we don't have to rely on guyswho aren't quite ready yet but probably will
be not too far into the comingin coming years. It's been hard for

(30:30):
these guys, it really has.We're producing runs more or less usually,
and it's it's a feast or famineteam so far. What we need to
do is settle them into where theycan pick up about six or seven a
game, and then our pitching staffcan hold the opposition to maybe three or
four. That's when you start winninga lot of games. A quick few

(30:52):
things to run down before I getback to something silly and simple. Going
out in very concerning news right herein Houston, we are I don't know,
I'm just gonna I'm just gonna readit, and you guys can decide
for yourself. Fourteenagers, all sixteenand younger, have been charged in the

(31:15):
murder of a gas station clerk,a guy named Steven Mendoza, known to
his customers as Fluffy. This guyhad a man, he had a wife,
or not had a wife and adaughter. This man had a wife
and a daughter, and they areleft alone now because of these four young
people, teenagers, two of themwere fourteen. They know who they are,

(31:41):
they just haven't found them yet,and they haven't turned themselves in.
Very frightening that people so young canalready be so evil, and I'm just
it's beyond me. I kind ofhave an idea why, but it's frustrating
to think that that could be remedied, I believe, and get these young
people back on a much better pathfor their lives, rather than to go

(32:02):
in in the middle of the nightand shoot somebody dead over what they imagine
to be thousands of dollars. I'msure in the cash register, but because
there have been so many robberies overthe last umpteen years, I don't think.
I bet they don't keep one hundreddollars in those registers anymore. Just
a few ones, a few fives, maybe a couple of tens to break
a twenty, but that's about all. Everything else goes into a safe that

(32:25):
can't be opened till Labor Day orwhatever. In more concerning news, the
man most likely to oppose Donald Trumpin November had in his hands during a
meeting with the Iraqi Prime Minister recentlya note card that not only told him
what to say, but when inall caps to pause. In other words,

(32:52):
