Put ’Em on the Couch — Episode 89: What’s the Point of Grandparents?
In this heartfelt episode, host Jason McCoy and cohost Nelson Beaulieu dive into the complex journey of aging — from the political spotlight on leaders like President Joe Biden to the deeply personal struggles of autonomy and independence as we grow older. Along the way, they explore the evolving role of grandparents in our lives: the support, wisdom, and unexpected gifts they offer as families change.
Featuring a touching voiceover with a treasured audio clip of Jason’s late grandpa and a special memory shared by his brother Andy, this episode blends personal stories, science, and social commentary to uncover why grandparents matter more than we often realize.
Whether you’re navigating the challenges of aging yourself or seeking to understand the powerful place grandparents hold in our families and evolution, this episode offers insight, warmth, and plenty to think about.
