across the country. Each program has three feature stories, and shorter segments
on health, personal finance, and lifestyles. Boomer trivia questions are
woven into the mix. While some episodes use graphics and music to invoke
memories of the 50s and 60s, Boomers! is forward-looking and substantive,
exploring the central life concerns facing the Boomer generation.
