Many of us will have careers with three distinct eras: education, work, and retirement. While the first two tend to be regimented, the third age offers the possibility of pursuing a wide range of interests.

Our guest in this episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast is the retired particle physicist <a href="https://michaelalbrow.com/">Michael Albrow</a>, who is scientist emeritus at Fermilab in the US. He has just published his book <a href="https://michaelalbrow.com/books/space-times-matter-one-hundred-short-stories-about-the-universe-michael-albrow/9798894273044">Space Times Matter: One Hundred Short Stories About The Universe</a>, which is a collection of brief essays and poems related to science.
Much of the book comes from a newspaper column that Albrow wrote earlier in his retirement and he has also been involved in collaborations with visual and musical artists. In this podcast he talks about this third age of his career as a physicist and gives some tips for your retirement.
