Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
The fastest growing demographic in America is those over age 85. But most agree — we don’t yet know how to ensure a good quality of life to people as they age. It’s a challenge thousands of people in hundreds of disciplines are thinking about every day. We explore how emerging technologies might be harnessed to make life better, help remove old barriers, and help reduce health care costs for ourselves or our older relatives.
