    Do you have ANY phone numbers actually memorized? Have you ever used a phone book OR do you even know what one is? Is telling time by looking at the hands on a clock becoming a lost skill? Have you ever made a call from a phone booth? There was actually a time when it was important to carry enough change with you to make a phone call, should you the need arrise. Why do some people carry? Because Law enforcement likely won't be around when you need them Let's have some fun!!!! Try playing an old game from your childhood. Whether it’s a board game like Clue or a video game, playing a childhood favorite game will not only kill some time but also bring back some serious childhood nostalgia. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theoldmanspodcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theoldmanspodcast/support

    Episode 402; Stop putting things off, remembering going out and let's have some fun!
    Jul 24 2023
    On my mind this episode is the simple question of “If not now, then when”. There's an I remember when segment that came about from my trip to the movies to see the new Mission Impossible. We play some sports trivia and I have a story that helps explain to those who don't carry why some of us do carry. And finally, lets talk about having some fun…. If not now, then when? One of life's most important questions. It is a topic I have discussed many times and in many forms on this podcast. Always the same general observations. Why do we wait…, procrastinate…., delay, why is our timing so bad…..……. When will we make that move, do that thing, tackle that challenge? I'm Coach Streb and on this episode of my Old Man's Podcast I will discuss the “when’s” in our life and encourage us to pursue the things that matter to us now. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theoldmanspodcast/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theoldmanspodcast/support

    Episode 401; Anniversaries, serendipity and having fun
    Jul 9 2023

    • This is an anniversary, three years ago, I dropped the first episode of this podcast. I quickly found connections with former athletes that I hadn’t seen or heard of for decades in some cases.  Even family members that I don’t get to see very often I knew were listening and it felt, at least virtually anyway, like we were spending time together.

    Why travel? Because travel brings something to our life we don't get much of these days, serendipity. Our over scheduled, social media driven lives cause us to miss out on those chance encounters with things and/or people. I say it’s those experiences are the ones that really make life exciting, the unexpected.

    Stupid is everywhere around you.  And stupid can be harmful to innocent people, living their daily life. I don’t know about you, but I like to try and be prepared for the bad people out in our world, because there are just to many of them and as stupid bad people, they are dangerous.

    Let's have some fun!! Take a walk- and give yourself plenty of time… HOURS of time… NO HEADPHONES and best WITHOUT YOUR PHONE.  Or at least turn it off. This should NOT be exercise, don’t count steps or time yourself….. Remind yourself to slow down. Go somewhere new, or where you haven’t been to in a while. I suggest, to make this experience work, force yourself to make 5 stops.
