"What's Next? Conversations with Boomers"

Barb Desmarais, a baby boomer, interviews guests for lively, light hearted conversations to discuss 'what's next?' now that our kids have grown, and many of us are retired or moving in that direction. We're traveling, engaging in new hobbies, some are learning a new language, and some of us are back on the dating scene. Also, what is it like being a grandparent? All of this and more on "What's Next? Conversations with Boomers.
