#345 Celebrate Avenue Q - Puppeteer Rick Lyon Apr 24, 2019

Celebrate Avenue Q - Puppeteer Rick Lyon

Smithsonian Associates Art of Living Interview Series

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series, I'm Paul Vogelzang and this is episode #345. As part of our Smithsonian Associates Interview Series, we are joined today by master puppeteer, Rick Lyon.

In July 2003, a very different sort of musical opened on Broadway. Avenue Q. It wasn't based on a blockbuster film or play or best-selling book, wasn't compiled from popular songs, and it didn't take place somewhere far away or long ago. It was entirely original, set in contemporary New York, and, perhaps most surprisingly, featured colorful puppets in its lead roles.

Before the final curtain falls, we will hear from Rick Lyon, who conceived, designed, and built the puppets for Avenue Q. Rick Lyon is with us today in a rare interview opportunity for the Not Old Better Show audience. You can see Rick Lyon and fellow cast member, Jennifer Barnhart, as they Celebrate Avenue Q, April 27, 2019.

Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show, via internet phone, a master puppeteer from Avenue Q, Rick Lyon.

Tickets and other details available here: https://smithsonianassociates.org/ticketing/tickets/celebrating-avenue-q

Loved1 - Live Well & Feel Connected

Interview with Loved1 Founder, Joe Adams

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, I'm Paul Vogelzang and this is episode # 343, today's show is brought to you by Loved1.

Right up front, I want to remind, Mothers Day is coming. Like, Winter is Coming, Mother's Day is coming. Don't forget Cersei Lannister, don't forget your mom, and don't forget your loved1!.

I love this time of year: Springtime…Easter, dogwood in bloom, if you know forsythia, that's in bloom here, and the colors are amazing.

Most of the US has their spring flowers, and I know for my family, who are scattered, specifically on opposite sides of the country, me in Virginia, and my mom in California, my mom loves the poppy's in bloom, the almond orchards in bloom, and all the other beautiful indigenous flowers.

My point here is that my mom lives roughly 2400 miles from me, and I won't be with her for Mother's Day.

So, like me, if that's the case for you, that is family scattered and unable to gather during these holidays, I think we have a solution for you.

On today's show, we'll be speaking with Joe Adams from Loved1. My thanks to Loved1, at https://GiveLoved1.com for all their help with sponsorship and for making the show come together, and my thanks to you, our wonderful Not Old Better Show audience.

Talk About Better…The Not Old Better Show. Thanks, everybody, and don't forget Mother's Day.

Sports Wars - Wondery's Newest Show

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, I'm Paul Vogelzang, and this is episode #342

Hey, everybody, this is a special episode because I've got something extraordinary to share with you, my Not Old Better Show audience.

We talk about competition, exercise, fitness, and sports a lot here on the Not Old Better Show. Sports and fitness go hand in hand, and athletes of all ages compete, believe and train with the following saying in mind: Play like you're in first, train like you're in second!

It's that motivation that can carry us forward during all forms of difficulty, adversity, and competition, from wherever it comes. The great motivator, Lou Holtz, coach of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, and now a top-rated motivational speaker said: "Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it."

And in the new podcast from Wondery, SPORTS WARS, you'll hear what happens when some of the most elite athletes in the world take that motivational phrase: Play like you're in first, train like you're in second! to heart, and battle their biggest rivals for the chance to go down in history as one of the Greats.

In Sports Wars, you'll hear about the sports rivalries that provoked worldwide attention. Veteran Brett Favre being challenged for his spot, by rookie Aaron Rodgers. Isiah Thomas's beef with Michael Jordan after missing out on the Dream Team. Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer's battle for the title of greatest tennis player of all time. Not Old Better Show audience, this is excellent stuff, and you'll love the line up of guests!

These are all great moments in sports history that our Not Old Better Show audience will love. Whether you need a jolt of motivation, or you want to recall some of these great memories, Sports Wars tells you what happened during these epic match ups. Our Not Old Better Show audience may know how these stories begin, and even how some of them end. But what you don't know is what happened in between. Who was right? Who was wrong? And which side are YOU on? Sports Wars, hosted by Dan Rubenstein of Sports Illustrated and SB Nation, who has seen firsthand the drama, emotion, and scandal these rivalries can bring.

So, Not Old Better Show

#340 Yoga Strong, Yoga Fit - Sabrena Jo Apr 15, 2019

Show notes

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, I'm host Paul Vogelzang, and this is episode 340. Today's show is brought to you by GlutaDose.

Our show today is part of our Fitness Friday series, and it's another great one in our Fitness Friday programs. We'll be hearing from returning guest, Sabrena Jo, who'll join us in just a minute. But, by way of introduction, Sabrena Jo, of course, is a favorite with our Not Old Better audience and is the American Council on Exercise, Director of Science and Research Content. Sabrena Jo, about some fascinating research which suggests that yoga is as good as it gets when it comes to getting great exercise, stretching, fitness and even strengthening us, improving our functional ability significantly. The experts and the research prove the when you do yoga poses, you're putting your body in positions and orientations that you ultimately have to support with your muscles. So, you're lifting weights, and you're not using weight machines, deadlifts or dumbbells, but getting the same results. Who knew…???

I've learned a lot about yoga as a form of functional fitness that moves your body in the ways it was designed to move to help ensure that it keeps functioning correctly. For example, in yoga, you use both large and small muscles and advance in many directions (twisting, arcing, etc.), not just back and forth on a one-dimensional plane, as in the forward-back motion of a bicep curl. And, regular yoga practice can reduce your risk of injury and condition your body to perform better at things you have to do every day: walk, sit, twist, bend, and lift groceries…that's what the research shows.

Here to share that specific research is Sabrena Jo, Director of Science and Research Content from the American Council on Exercise. Sabrena Jo will explain the research, why it's essential, which yoga poses are best for developing strength, balance, and fitness. While the most important thing is to find a form of exercise you love and can see yourself doing as a lifelong habit, I encourage my clients to try new and different forms of exercise continually. If you include many types of workout techniques, you'll continue to test and push your body in different ways, and you'll keep growing as a fitness enthusiast and as an individual. As Sabrena Jo always says, most of all, enjoy yourself, and this is a way to do that! I'm very excited about this subject and the research, so let's welcome back to the program, via internet phone, ACE Director of Science and Research Content, Sabrena Jo.

#339 VJ Vogelzang My Mom - Loved 1 Apr 14, 2019

Show notes

VJ Vogelzang My Mom - Loved 1

New Technology for Our Lives...

Welcome to The Not Old Better Show. I'm Paul Vogelzang and this is episode #339. Today's show is brought to you by Loved1 @ giveloved1.com

Today's show is part of our new technology series, and we're going to be talking about staying connected to loved ones, using the Loved1 service.

We all know how valuable it is to stay in touch with those of us in the Not Old Better Show audience how are on the 'Older" side, age wise.

Isolation is more than just a tough circumstance. Isolation leads to depression, leading to health conditions worsening and many other difficult outcomes.

Staying connected is vital. Staying connected to the social environment, the world, and particularly family gives loved ones an incredible strength.

We all want to feel connected and have a sense of feeling cherished and valued by the people we care about.

The idea to provide items that improve our loved one's quality of life, their wellness, their health, has an enormous benefit from an emotional standpoint, as well as a physical standpoint.

Of course, we feel this way about loved ones. I feel this way about my own mom, who lives 3000 miles away, but I want her to feel connected and to live well. I've mentioned my mom previously, and today I'm going to talk to my mom about the Loved1 box that is delivered to her, sent by me, living in Virginia to her in California.

This is a nice show, one you'll enjoy, and hopefully, think about, and think about how best to connect with your family, your loved ones.

My mom is a published author, a former byline with the McClatchy newspapers in California, is almost 90, and is very special to me. You'll hear from my mom that she loves the loved1 box. Less than a day after our interview my mom sent me an email saying she'd forgotten to mention that the box is so sturdy and attractive she even uses it for storage. True testimony, and so thorough from my mom the journalist, so please welcome my mom, VJ Vogelzang to the Not Old Better Show.
