The Baby Boomers’ Guide to Life in the 21st Century
Get Connected, and Stay Connected
The Baby Boomers' Guide to Life in the 21st Century is a multi-media healthy ageing project produced and broadcast from the studios of Radio Skid Row (RSR) in Marrickville now available through the CBAA's Community Radio Network (CRN).
The Guide looks at healthy ageing, especially for Australians aged 55 and over. Each episode looks at a theme related to ageing in Australia through ‘The Expert Speaks’ segments, followed by 'The Punter's Panel' where two local older people share their thoughts.
The program was made possible through support from the Community Broadcasting Foundation (CBF) and produced by Jeff Furolo, presenter and healthy ageing specialist, Raul Hernandex and Lex Marinos.
