The Mandate
At Sixes & Sevens Multimedia is creating a new national audio program about and for Americans in their sixties and seventies. The program's mandate is to serve this age group with information and insight into the benefits and opportunities, issues and challenges they face to reinvent themselves for more rewarding and fulfilling lives as they age. The program will do so through stories, factual information, philosophical and spiritual discussions that connect, enrich and inspire. As a part of this focus, the program will also examine and address myths and ageist ideas in our society about the elderly and their capacity to contribute to the nation's life. We will feature a full range of audio formats including podcasts, radio programs, CD's and live streaming.

Time to Talk and Listen is an Opportunity for Everyone!
Having a good conversation is a gift. There are many reasons for enjoyment but here are some other important outcomes. In a real conversation you might find yourself saying things you didn't know you knew. Or from another's words you might find thoughts or feeling or memories you thought you'd lost. A good conversation brings both people to a new place. And a conversation that sings stays indie for a time to be enjoyed again. Link: http://winncollier.com/loneliness-and-the-art-of-conversation/

Being Ourselves
Norman Lear, renowned television producer, age 92, in a recent interview said, "I wish to get the generations below mine and mine - from 55 or 60 up- on television. Certainly they're the fastest-growing demographic, with the most expendable income. There is every reason in the world for a show to exist."

Enjoying Life?
Listen to the radio!
At Sixes and Sevens radio program is created to be entertaining, insightful, and edgy. It is conversational and uses multiple styles to tell authentic stories about people in their sixties and seventies, looking at their opportunities and challenges.
The program addresses a void in broadcasting - programs aimed at a significant under-served population. It asserts the value to society of aging citizens. The program portrays, with nuance, the realities of their lives through humor, information and compassion.
The program and its stories illustrate the diversity of the aging population with integrity and insight. It gives the elderly their own place and voices in the nation's dialogue. It does not shy away from asking difficult and troubling questions. The program is topical, timely, and compelling.
The program engages its audience, shares their community, and identifys who they are. It acknowledges them for the changes they brought and continue to bring to America and the world.
