We’re talking grill season like you’ve never heard it before with Good Housekeeping's Kate Merker

Good Better Best, The Not Old Better Show, Good Housekeeping Interview Series

🔥 Summer just got a whole lot more delicious — and more intentional.

This week on The Not Old Better Show, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kate Merker, Chief Food Director of the Hearst Lifestyle Group and the culinary genius behind Good Housekeeping’s legendary Test Kitchen. We’re talking smart summer grilling — not just sizzling steaks, but heart-healthy, high-flavor meals that celebrate aging, wellness, and the joy of good food.

Kate brings nearly 20 years of experience in food media and fine dining — and she brings that knowledge home to our listeners in the most accessible, fun, and inspiring way. In our conversation, she shares her favorite simple grill recipes, her secret weapon ingredients, and why grilling for one can be just as joyful as cooking for a crowd.

What struck me most is how Kate reframes grilling from a once-in-a-while indulgence to a vibrant, everyday tool for better living. She talks about cooking as connection — to ourselves, to others, to health — and her insights speak especially to those of us navigating new phases of life. Whether you're retired, an empty nester, or just trying to cook smarter, this episode is for you. 🥗🍢

👨‍🍳 Plus: We dive into her work at Good Housekeeping, what it takes to develop a recipe readers can trust, and how the GH+ Membership gives exclusive access to all this smart, science-backed content — including product testing opportunities, expert interviews, and member-only recipes.

🎧 If you’re hungry for change — or just a better way to do summer dinner — I invite you to listen in. The grill's hot, the ideas are fresh, and you won’t want to miss what Kate has to say.

🔥 Forget boring BBQs… it’s time to grill with flavor, joy, and purpose! - Kate Merker

📊 Over 450,000 voices. One powerful message: dignity in aging matters.
I recently had the privilege of interviewing Liz Pearce, Senior Living Product Director at U.S. News & World Report, on The Not Old – Better Show. Liz and her team help families across the country navigate one of life’s biggest transitions: choosing the right senior living community. 🏡
U.S. News’ 2025 Best Senior Living Ratings are more than numbers—they reflect real experiences from residents and their loved ones. Their input shapes how communities are recognized for outstanding care, safety, and compassion. ✨
In our conversation, Liz shares what today’s older adults are truly looking for—not just services, but dignity, trust, and a sense of belonging. She also explains how digital tools are evolving to support families at every step of their decision-making process. 💻👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
One of the most powerful takeaways? “We evaluate communities, not companies,” Liz says. “Because it’s the people—not the brand—that shape the experience.” 👏

Dignity, Data, and the Decisions That Shape Our Later Years

He shared the stage with his legendary father. He shared a cellblock with drug dealers and lifers. Now, he shares the Gospel—and a message of hope.
Rev. John Lee Hooker, Jr., the son of blues icon John Lee Hooker, has lived through addiction, incarceration, Grammy nominations, and a powerful spiritual awakening.
In our latest Not Old Better Show interview, Rev. Hooker tells stories that are as raw as they are redemptive: 🎤 Performing at Soledad Prison just years after serving time there. 🕊 Finding sobriety through faith—not programs. 🎸 Escaping the legacy of the blues to build a legacy of purpose.
What he offers is more than a comeback story—it’s a wake-up call that it's never too late to change direction, no matter your age.
