Podcasts for an interesting life over 60 ?

8 replies

Hi, I am wondering if there are any interesting podcasts around for women over 60 on a very small budget who are not ready to join the National Trust yet (no offence) and who love good conversation, food and books? I would love to have some recommendations, thanks.

Do you want recommendations for podcasts about what to do if you're over 60 or just any interesting podcasts generally?

I love getting out in nature, walking, video/photography of scenery, birds, wildlife, that’s cheap, don’t know of podcasts tho

The National Trust isn't all scones you know
I did a beautiful 12k walk at the weekend but used the NT car park and loos.

I'm over 60 and love good conversation, food and books. Also love the national trust as I have an interest in history. I don't need a podcast. I have friends and a husband and a book club. What is it you are looking for from a podcast?

I don't know why you think joining the National Trust is only for ancient people! Loads of my younger friends are members - some just for the free parking in beautiful areas. Maybe you should open your mind a bit more.

Jo Good, "MiddleAgedMinx" on YouTube has a busy life despite being well over 60 (I think!). Although she is very London-centric, she always points out what a tiny flat she lives in and how she can't afford to retire so...

Go on Spotify and search ‘life after 60’, there will be a variety of podcasts, retirement rebel is quite good, on instagram too

Hi, OP. We've moved your thread to our Chat section to see if anyone there can come up with any good podcast recommendations for you.
