Am I Old Yet? — Comedy audio drama

Season 2 is on! Helen (in London) and her old US college friend Joey (in Sydney) are chatting on Zoom, when Joey gets an unexpected phone call from Sadie, another college friend, who lives in New Hampshire, and connects her up with Helen. The joys of modern technology! They muse on the way Shakespeare is the voice of the Zeitgeist, and what? Rozzie never died, said she?

Introducing Judi Lehrhaupt as Sadie, and a new theme tune, arranged by Mark Bunyan.

Helen enjoys a catchup Facetime call with her publisher friend Joey. They swap old lady experiences of diminishing dietary possibilities, and short walks. Helen confesses a desire to be more like Neil Gaiman. And Janey drops by to borrow yet another children's book.

Performed and produced by Flloyd Kennedy.
