There is nothing worse than an aging parent or a radio segment that isn't well produced.
This is a quick feature produced by a commercial station to alert members of the aging and boomer age groups about the financial ramifications of getting older. It's good advice. Very good advice. In fact, it's advice that we've heard before. Basic information is good, but public radio listeners, mostly boomers, are very highly educated folks who require more than basic information to meet their needs. The aging folks in our audiences are pretty hip too and while I won't go so far as to say they would never get taken on a scam, they are pretty sophisticated...after all, look at what good parents they are.
You'll also hear very AM production values on this piece including paper ratteling. The narration, while fine for the most part, often has a bit of a paternal tone that made the back of neck tense up.
