🎙️ Too Young To Be Old: Today Is the Youngest Day of Your Life
Host: Diane Gilman
Diane Gilman returns with a deeply personal follow-up to her viral “80 is the new 80” birthday podcast. In this milestone episode, Diane shares the wisdom (and humor) earned from eight decades of living, her fierce intentionality about aging, and how embracing change—inside and out—reignited her sense of purpose, creativity, and self-worth.
What You’ll Hear:
- Why “today is the youngest day of your life”—and how to seize the moment at any age
- Unfiltered thoughts on ageism, society’s lowest expectations, and why true reinvention after 60 is a choice, not a given
- The reality of intentional living: building new dreams post-cancer, treating food as medicine, and never waiting for permission to rewrite your story
- How Diane went from TV fashion mogul to journal-writing, screenplay-selling, and living “out loud” in her 80s
- The essential “next chapter” questions: Who are you, what lights you up, and what do you refuse to leave undone?
- Why cancer, pressure, and loss shaped Diane’s greatest gifts: gratitude, forgiveness, and relentless self-belief
- Actionable advice for women over 60: let go of low bars, apply lessons learned (even from pain), and carve out a bold new future—however unlikely it may seem

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
