When Bob Addison picked his son up from school, he didn’t expect a classmate to ask, “Is that your grandpa?” But that wasn’t the only sign life threw at him this week. From cashing his first pension check to turning his music down, Bob shares the moments that made him stop and wonder: is this just growing up, or growing old?

This episode delivers laughs and a few jabs to the ego, but it also dives into a real scientific study about how changes in speech might point to early cognitive shifts. Packed with wit, wisdom, and the occasional mustache wax mishap, Bob’s bits go from hilarious to thoughtful in just minutes.

A conversation about change, awareness, and how we hear the universe when we’re ready to listen.
