100-Year-Old People: Insights from the Greatest Generation
Thursday, 6 August, 2026

Originally aired 8/23/2025. How many 100-year-old people (or older) have you met? Gerry Justice, a veteran journalist based in Indianapolis, has been interviewing centenarians. Gerry discusses insights connected with his new book, "My 100-Year-Old Friends :In Their Words", an anthology that includes four Hoosiers. Gerry shares their stories, which he sets in historic context with details about everything from rural life in Indiana during the 1920s to D-Day during World War II, when one of the Hoosiers landed on Omaha Beach.
