Senior Entertainment / Education Network
I am working with students from Northeastern University to create a virtual senior entertainment / education network that would stream live as well as have pre-recorded programming. It is intended for senior communities as well as home-bound adults.
Frankly, I had the bandwidth to try this five years ago but it fell to deaf ears as many communities were still in the VHS era of technology. Now mentioning this on social media is stirring a lot of interest.
Can you help my students? We have lots of questions.
- How much are companies willing to pay for this service?
- Is it a subscription model versus pay as you go?
- What kind of content do you want to see?
- What is the balance between live and recorded?
- What technology should we use?
- What are the best ways to deliver the content?
- What barriers exist to delivering the content?
- Is the industry ready for this?
We are looking to interview executive directors and activity directors about what this should look like. If interested please contact me here

Being a Grandparent During a Pandemic – Podcast
GrandkidsMatter conducted a survey of grandparenting during the pandemic. Forty two percent of grandparents said their relationship stayed the same; 31 percent said it became stronger; while 27 percent reported that it became weaker. Is there a playbook for grandparenting during a pandemic? We seem to be writing a new one. I know this personally, having three kids with six grandchildren, all long distances away. I discuss being a grandparent during a pandemic.
According to the study, physical health, mental outlook, and emotional state impacted the answers. The “became weaker” group scored lower in health; and were more likely to feel depressed, tired and hopeless. The “stayed the same” group had the highest mental acuity. Younger grandparents were significantly more likely to “become stronger” in their relationship. I interpret that as meaning “new” enthusiastic grandparents hell bent on enjoying their young grandkids.
Your ability to function and ability to pivot to make new plans impacts how you approach the situation.
