Pensioners R' Us with Bill and Louise Bates

About Pensioners R' Us with Bill and Louise Bates

Join Bill and Louise Bates, two freshly minted pensioners with a twinkle in their eyes and absolutely no plans to slow down. Each week, they lift the lid on what really happens when you finally give up the 9-to-5—think less “pipe and slippers,” more “Prosecco and paddleboarding.” From navigating the world of free bus passes and discount lunches to discovering new hobbies, side hustles, and the occasional walk along the river bank before jumping in—this is retirement as is is supposed to be. It’s real, it’s ridiculous, and it’s funny. Whether you're on the brink of retirement, already in it, or just want to hear what the fuss is all about, Pensioners Go Wild! is your dose of laughs, life lessons, and a little bit of mischief. So pop the kettle on, put your feet up, and subscribe now—because life after work is just getting started! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
