A new audio comedy is on the way, and it proves that life inside a senior living community is anything but quiet.
From Kenya Barris comes Big Age, a new Audible Original that brings humor, heart, and a new, refreshing take on aging. The series stars comedic actors Jenifer Lewis, Cedric the Entertainer, and Niecy Nash-Betts, and centers on Dot and Butch Watts, a married couple navigating life after retirement.
After relocating to Sunset Gardens, their new Florida home, Dot and Butch quickly realize retirement isn’t the laid-back chapter they imagined. The community is full of unforgettable personalities who challenge their patience, their relationship, and their definition of “settling down.” From old flames and hyper-competitive neighbors and couples who stay a little too busy, Sunset Gardens keeps the Watts on their toes.
Blending their natural comedic personalities with meaningful moments, Big Age explores what it really means to grow older without losing your spark. At its heart, it’s a story about love, reinvention, and second chances and a reminder that aging doesn’t have to mean slowing down. Sometimes, it’s just a new chapter unfolding.

Among these names that arrived at the carpet, some names that stopped for a chat at the carpet included Tyla, Paris Hilton, Anthony Hamilton, Rita Wilson, Nicki Nicole, Mike Sabath, Stevie Mackey, Reba McEntire and many more.
Here’s what some of the artists shared:
Stevie Mackey
The Knockturnal: Hi, how are you doing?!
Stevie Mackey: I’m doing amazing. What’s up?!
The Knockturnal: That’s good, you look great! What are you most looking forward to within your career and your personal life?
Stevie Mackey: Thank you! I am really looking forward to how we’re talking about AI, and people are scared of it. But I want musicians to really get ahead of it. Use it for good, really seeking and finding inventive ways to use AI with your creativity. Not fight it ,but learn how to use it so it helps the future. What can it do, to help you and that is going to be magic. Don’t be afraid of it!
Anthony Hamilton
The Knockturnal: Hi how are you doing?!
Anthony Hamilton: I’m good, how are you love?
The Knockturnal: I am doing good, I wanted to know is there anyone you are most looking forward to seeing tonight perform?
Anthony Hamilton: Lauryn Hill. I want to see her, and what she is going to do for D’Angelo, who was a good friend of mine. Roberta flack, and to see how they celebrate those guys.
Tyla stopped to chat and shared her excitement about winning her second Grammy, and the recognition and availability to put more creative input into “PUSH 2 START”. As well, shared what’s new for her, which is A-Pop, her new album.
Paris Hilton, mentioned how proud she is, on her project “Infinite Icon”, and the inspiration it has been for many. This lead Hilton to mention that this film is her “most personal project” she has done so far. Many should expect a third album soon, as she has been working in the studio with exciting music to come.
On February 3, we arrived at the Los Angeles opening of Borrowed Spotlight in West Hollywood. The exhibition unfolded across three packed gallery rooms, along with a smaller adjoining space where a short film played on loop — intimate clips of Holocaust survivors speaking directly with the celebrities paired with them, sharing their stories face to face.
At the front of the gallery lay the coffee-table book the team has been working on for nearly four years. It is remarkable, filled with striking portraits and excerpts of testimony from each survivor, thoughtfully paired with a public figure helping to amplify their story. Lining the walls were large-scale photographs of the survivors — some alone, others mid-conversation — each accompanied by a brief paragraph recounting their lives. Interspersed throughout were quotes pulled directly from their words.
While the room was filled with celebrities who participated in the project, what mattered most was that the survivors themselves were there. Many of them had come.
One woman, nearly 100 years old, stepped onto the stage wearing a sparkling cobalt blue sweater. When we spoke with her afterward, she lit up talking about her pregnant granddaughter, who was also in attendance. Overcome with excitement, she shimmied and danced in place, full of life and animated. Nearby stood another survivor, 108 years old, dressed in a bright red sweater and gold sneakers. The energy in the room was alive in a way that felt rare and deeply moving. One survivor shared that he had not spoken his story aloud for more than 90 years before finally telling it for the first time with the Borrowed Spotlight team.
South African–born photographer Bryce Thompson also spoke during the evening, reflecting on the years he spent working on the project. Though he is not Jewish, he described feeling a deep responsibility to help preserve and share these stories, many of which had never been told publicly before.
Quotes from survivors lined the gallery walls:
“If you don’t tell your story, people won’t know.” — Gabriella Karin
“When someone puts out their hand, you never let it go empty.” — Yetta Kane
“My grandchildren are my revenge.” — Elizabeth Wilf
With fewer Holocaust survivors alive each year, the urgency of preserving these stories — in their own words — felt especially present.
One of the most moving moments of the evening came when 108-year-old survivor Risa Igelfeld stood up and signed her name on the back of her portrait. She beamed as she did it. As Jenna Dewan, who was paired up with her, reflected, ” I left with a really life-changing moment. It blew me away that somebody that I was dancing with survived the unimaginable and has such positivity and light and life force to her still at 108. And it just changed the way I see life and I hear life, my perspective.’
The photo exhibition runs until March 1 at Hancock Park.
