His high-energy performance has been delighting crowds nationwide, leaving them nodding in recognition and doubled over in laughter.

In the 60’s and 70’s — we had rotary phones, leisure suits, GI Joe action figures, 8-tracks, and we even rode bikes without Helmets.  Yes, Baby Boomers survived the ’60s and ’70s without GPSs, voicemail, and texting!  From the trials and tribulations of modern technology to the aches and pains that arrive uninvited– to getting your AARP discount, Fogel mines comedy gold from everyday moments of middle age and beyond!
