Description

The Senior Scoop is a podcast hosted by Deborah and Kelsey Samuel, created to support and inform seniors navigating major life transitions. Based in Santa Barbara, the show focuses on helping older adults understand and prepare for various aspects of aging — from downsizing and home maintenance to emotional well-being and planning for the future.

Each episode explores topics relevant to senior life, such as physical and mental health, financial planning, trusts and wills, pet care, and more. The hosts bring on local experts — including healthcare professionals, legal advisors, and home service providers — to offer insights, resources, and practical advice.

The Senior Scoop is a warm and informative resource designed to empower seniors and their families with trusted guidance and real-life tips from the Santa Barbara community.
