Welcome to Old Man Lunch
Old Man Lunch is a podcast about three old friends having lunch, going for a walk, skiing, drinking, or just having fun while discussing their lives, families, local news, childhoods, health, politics, and whatever other topics we find interesting.
Oh, yeah, we will also be talking about Alzheimer’s quite a bit as Matt (one of your hosts) was diagnosed with early onset of this dreadful disease about a year ago at the age of 55.
Our goal is to provide a deep look into how Alzheimer’s impacts Matt life as well as his family, friends, wife and children. We want to talk about the daily challenges, frustrations, and believe it or not, freedoms (Matt’s words), that Alzheimer’s has brought into his life
We are also going to have some fun, we need to jam 20 years of retirement merriment and tomfoolery into a much shorter time frame so expect some boozy nonsense, joking, jesting and high jinks. (I like a thesaurus now and again)
Finally, we want to look at how friendships, at all ages, make life better. There is an epidemic of loneliness in America according to the Surgeon General and we think that gathering a group of friends together for lunch can help just about everyone so keep an eye out for some episodes about the importance of friends.
