About this listen
This week at The Table, we kick things off with a story that had everyone clutching their pearls… and then immediately un-clutching them. A 73-year-old British grandmother decides it’s never too late to embrace her sexuality — and makes up for lost time in a big way. The family debates morality, autonomy, “yucking someone’s yum,” and whether 70 really is the new 60.
From there, things spiral (naturally) into stories about great-grandma in the rest home, surprise boyfriends, and the reality that senior citizens might be living far more exciting lives than we assume. Add in some classic table banter about STIs, dentures, and whether religious upbringings can delay — but not deny — human nature.
As we head toward the end of the episode, the focus shifts to Dad. With his birthday around the corner, Anthony brings a Bay Area–themed 1963 throwback: population stats, bridge toll prices that will make you gasp, and Oakland birth stories that feel very on-brand. There’s also a teaser about a birthday gift that promises to be… unforgettable.
It’s reflective, ridiculous, nostalgic, and just a little bit spicy — exactly how we like our Sunday dinners.
