2025 is the 6th Season of The Boomer Woman’s Podcast. Each episode is a conversation between me – I’m Agnes Knowles, your host – and a guest who talks to a subject that, someway, somehow, is relatable to Boomer Women. The guests can be any age, any gender, as long as their message is positive, informative, pertinent to our demographic. You, dear listener, might need to be open-minded, curious, tolerant, inclusive… and if you are, you will enjoy these conversations, maybe learn something, and I encourage you to share each and any episode!

Something a little different today as Agnes shares and discusses a recent conversation (but one of several) she had with Judith over how the Canadian government is failing its seniors. For now they're calling it Grey Ruckus! It might be a movement you want to join!
Some of the numbers Judith shared from her island home:
removing a tooth: ~$50
remove a carcinoma: ~ $375
cut/colour/blowdry (her hair): ~$25
mani/pedi: $17.50
freshest piña colada in the world: $12
Lovely large restaurant dinner: $17.50
