On this episode of Go-To Grandma, host Kathy Buckworth welcomes Canada’s preeminent crossword puzzle creator Gwen Sjorgren. With more than 1,300 puzzles in her series of books, Sjorgren is an authority on the staying power of crosswords and how they can help you learn something new, relieve stress and have fun while you’re at it.
Next, Kathy is joined by Kim Murstein and her grandma Gail, who host a hilarious podcast called Excuse My Grandma. With 302,000 followers and 8.8 million likes on TikTok, plus 135,000 followers on Instagram, the pair’s conversations about generational differences related to dating, fashion and pop culture have struck a chord with audiences everywhere. They chat about the joy of learning from each other and why the generations must understand one another’s perspective.
