Old Man Lunch.orgMy Anal FistulaThis is round two of the card question prompts when Matt and I were on the Powder Highway. We talk about a variety of things ranging from spending the day as a woman or dog to the zipper related scar on Matt’s penis, and his bout of anal fistula so buckle up, it gets pretty gross. Don't expect a ton of Alzheimer’s related content, but there is one dementia related question that gets a bit emotional. As always, keep coming back. We recently updated the website and will be sending out our fir...

Old Man Lunch.orgOld Man Lunch Goes to Moab or Purgatory is a Strong WordA couple of weeks ago Old Man Lunch went to Moab with some friends from Dubuque who came out to visit. We visited Arches National Park, Canyonlands NP, and Dead Horse State Park. Fucking gorgeous, we hiked a bit, took a bunch of photos, and almost ran out of gas in the middle of a national park. We also boozed and weeded it up at night, played pool, sat in a hot tub, and talked about our lives and everything happening in the world. This episode covers several subjects, petty crimes we got away with as...

Old Man Lunch.orgA Million Little CutsAs we launch this podcast, we wanted to give everyone a starting point for where Matt is at in the disease.

We will also talk about how the concept of death is a near-daily companion in Matt’s life and to wrap things up, Matt reads an excerpt from his journal. Send us a text

Old Man Lunch.orgMatt and Mark Tiny Houses - We Have No ControlAccording to Matt, Alzheimer’s has brought him some new clarity regarding how much control we have in this world, and the answer is zero. Just because Matt has Alzheimer’s, it doesn’t mean we will all be present for his funeral. Death could come for any one of us at any time, and there are certainly decent odds that Brad or I will kick it well before Matt expires. In the end, we honestly have no idea what is to come and while I still find that thought discomforting, Matt seems ready to embrace...
