  • Eppy 169: Trendy Trends
    Sep 30 2026
    Jean and Laura are talking all things trendy—from hair halos and sponge lift pads to ballet sneakers, rugby stripes and rich cherry red. We remember when the phone rang and you simply said "hello," wonder whether Wordle is getting harder, and discover that facetious has all the vowels in order. Add in a few laughs, a few surprises, and plenty of Boomer perspective, and you've got another fun episode of OK Boomer Podcast!

Jean loves pipe organ Reels—especially watching those amazing organ shoes fly across the pedals. Laura keeps us current with Third Eye Magnetism and the glamorous new "valet shoe" trend.And finally, we ask an important question: Are you a hugger? We are! Apparently hugs can even help reduce stress.Phones, photos, Reels, shoes, hugs—and plenty of bewilderment. Come laugh with us!

  • Eppy 164: Rage Bait
    Jul 22 2026

    Happy News: Laura saw Micky Dolenz perform at Lakeside Ohio recently. 82 years old and doing great! Boomers-do you remember the "Monkees" on TV, circa 1965?! What a fun show! And we can still sing the tunes!

    Boomers love riding in golf carts- especially when they are not on a golf course! There are so many adorable villages near Lake Erie. Boomer Jean loves to drive her golf cart on Put-In-Bay and Laura tools around Lakeside in her 6-seater golf cart in Lakeside!Girl Grip: Carrying necessities such as your phone, lip gloss, water bottle, keys in one hand. (That would be pretty hard for a Boomer to do!)

    Rage Bait: Pranking. Online content intentionally designed to provoke anger or outrage. Creators use it to manipulate users into engaging, which boosts algorithms and generates ad revenue. How it works: misleading headlines, trolling, deliberately doing something incorrectly to prompt thousands of angry, corrective comments. Officially named the Word of the Year by Oxford University Press.

    Ok Boomers- do we care about this at all- is the whole world crazy???

    Real Talk. Real Love. Real Fun.

  • Eppy 162: From Sea to Shining Sea
    Jun 24 2026
    Laura is back from her Viking River Cruise from Paris to Normandy, and she's bringing home plenty of stories!The cruise hosted 158 passengers, mostly Boomers, including a church friend Laura hadn't seen since high school.

    The trip was relaxing, the food was excellent, and Laura quickly embraced French culture with a cheerful "Bonjour!"—while learning that you're only supposed to say it once per day to the same person.After dinner each evening, Laura became a fixture in the ship's lounge. While she insists the lounge sometimes felt a bit like a nursing home, that didn't stop her from staying until closing time every night. (To be fair, closing time was 10 PM.)We also discuss one of the most important topics for women travelers everywhere: bathrooms.

    Laura was astonished to discover how many restrooms in Paris are unisex, leading to several memorable moments during the trip.Plus, Laura asked a French tour guide what the French really think about Americans. The answer may surprise you.

    Then we turn our attention homeward as America prepares to celebrate its 250th birthday. From small-town parades and fireworks to family traditions and gratitude for our nation, we're excited about the upcoming July 4th celebrations.Join us for travel stories, sister laughs, patriotic memories, and a celebration of the people and places that make America special.
