Why does advice feel supportive when we’re young, but suffocating as we get older — especially for grannies? In this episode, Adesewa Josh and Granny Jane Isay explore why unsolicited advice often lands hardest in later life, when autonomy has been earned and dignity matters most. Through warmth, humor, and lived experience, they unpack when care quietly crosses the line, and why the same advice — like the same grape — can become wine or vinegar depending on the season.

Loneliness in old age is real — and it’s rarely talked about!

What happens when the house gets quiet…and no one checks in?

On this episode of The Grannies Podcast, we unpack who really holds responsibility when grannies are left without companionship: family, friends, community, or society at large. We challenge assumptions and start a conversation we’ve all avoided for too long.

Who do you think is responsible?
