Does This Make Me Look Old?

Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd we’re back! We’re excited to kick off Season 2 of “Does This Make Me Look Old?”! If you’re just joining us or can vaguely recall listening to a past podcast but aren’t sure what it was about (we forgive you!), here’s what we’re all about in a nutshell: We’re Sim and Shiv, two middle-aged friends…...

Since we’re approaching the end of the year when everyone is creating “Best Of” and “Top 10” lists, we decided we’d bring back one of our own lists from earlier this year, which also turned out to be one of our more popular episodes. We talk about our Top 5 best and worst things about aging, which we think perfectly sums up what we like discussing with you on the pod. We’d also like to take this time to wish you a happy holiday season despite the rough go of it this year...

We’re still on hiatus but are bringing back one of our most popular episodes. In this episode we discuss the HBO documentary “Americans in Bed” and by talking about other people’s relationships we find out that getting older has helped change our attitudes towards our past relationships and what makes a good partner. We talk about dating in our youth and how things have changed now that we’re older...

Welcome to the first of our holiday hiatus episodes where we are going to return to one of our more popular podcasts looking at our fears around aging. We also give a warm welcome to part of our DTMMLO family, our producer Ross, who agreed to introduce our first holiday episode (hi Ross!). Join us as we talk about aging fears among ourselves and our friends...

Hey everyone, join us for one of our shortest episodes yet! We wrap up with our thoughts on the past year just before our holiday hiatus. But don't worry, we will have you covered if you want to continue to spend time with us as you're brushing your teeth, on your commute, at the gym, or wherever you listen to us spill our anxieties about aging. Although we'll be taking some time off, we'll post over the break so you don't have to miss us...

Sex and the City will be back!!! Remember that show where there were four friends who represented four different aspects of women?  There was Carrie who was the personification of romance in all its insecure girly non-glory. Samantha was passion incarnate - confident and focused. Miranda was practical, sensible and the career driven one. And Charlotte was the nurturer, the traditional one who wanted to be a wife and a mother...

The UN's 26th Climate Change Conference just wrapped up, creating a debate about whether enough has been done to reverse the effects of climate change. Shiv and Sim discuss the media's spin on the topic and their need to create a generational divide...

Are curmudgeons born or made? Shiv and Sim have a debate about this as well as whether or not they're becoming curmudgeons. In the process they find out they're on different sides of the computer/artificial intelligence divide. Who knew that Sim wants to bring on the sentient robots?!?!!? Regardless, their curmudgeon-ness (is that a word?) is probably because they're getting too little (Sim) or too much (Shiv) sleep per day...

Guess what?! We're #15 on Feedspot's "Best 30 Aging Podcasts" list", the Internet’s Largest Human Curated Database of Bloggers and Podcasts :) So definitely check out the site and follow us there ! This week, Sim wanted to talk about - without any actual evidence - how people pivot at some point from their careers, and start a completely new career...

Did you know October 18th is World Menopause Day? And October 11th was World Perimenopause Day? In fact, the entire month of October is actually menopause month! The purpose of both events is to raise awareness about the effects of menopause on health and well-being...
