“Our culture — correctly — sees youth as special. This podcast reminds that the 70+ years are also special. This is a perfect primer in how to make these years special. A pity the series ended.”

“I started listening to this podcast in 2021 after a cancer diagnosis. The interviews were calming and reflective. My 2023 goal
Is to finish listening to all the interviews since I got away from them a bit. I think I will make it!”

“These interviews are so human and so superbly done. The choice of people to interview is varied and fascinating. Max’s technique is direct, even pointed, yet caring and sometimes playful. Max’s occasional foul language — and the peoples’ return cussing — bring a smile to my face too. So real! ...”Read full review »

“I am a 73 year old man and was looking forward to this series and was quite encouraged at the beginning with the talk with the host's Dad. For me, though, then it became Celebrity Cascades.
