Send a text The Bucks welcome in 2024 with the help of Judith, VV1. Most of their resolutions deal with taking good care of old worn out body parts. Del ends 2023 [not 2003] with a leaky waterheater. Fortunately, he is McGyver's half-brother. Judith tells us about the movie, Boys in the Boat, which she gives two thumbs up. Del throws in two more thumbs and a partridge in a pear tree.

Join David and Del, two long-time friends with a shared history of curiosity, as they navigate the strange and familiar territories of modern life in their podcast, TWO OLD BUCKS. This isn't a structured lecture or a frantic news recap; it's the sound of two companions thinking out loud, pulling threads from society, arts, books, and culture to see what unravels. You'll hear the easy rhythm of a deep friendship, where a documentary film might lead to a personal memory, which then sparks a commentary on something read years ago. The perspective is uniquely theirs-a blend of earned wisdom and a refusal to take anything, including themselves, too seriously. Expect conversations that are frequently thoughtful and sometimes whimsical, sporadically funny, and invariably insightful. They examine the world through cataract-clouded eyes, which seems to grant them a focus on what actually matters, even if, as they admit, sometimes they're not quite sure. Listening to this podcast feels like sitting in on a great talk between two explorers who have seen a lot but haven't lost their taste for the journey.
