Welcome to 8-ball Media

8 Ball Media is a media platform focusing on positive, uplifting, and informative content across various interests. Our offerings include several niche sites like “Real Feel-Good Stories,” “Always Funny News,” and “The Elderly Young,” which highlight positivity, Humour, and achievements among older adults. We also cover topics like fashion for seniors, forgotten movies, and cross-cultural stories, aiming to celebrate diversity and encourage well-being. Additionally, “Try Positive Parenting” provides insights and guidance on nurturing family relationships.

Always Funny News

Always Funny News was created initially to give us all a break from today’s scandalous, negative, depressing, even deceptive reporting. There is something about humor that everyone can understand. It can bring on a smile and bring on humorous thoughts. It has even been scientifically proven that humour and laughter is good for you. So we decided to get scientific and help everyone out 😉  

The Elderly Young

We started The Elderly Young because, although retired, we still felt younger than ever and still doing so many of the things we did many years ago. So we decided to create a platform to celebrate all the fun and successes we “old people” were having. We wanted to provide a balanced perspective on the achievements of the “Elderly Young”.

Real Feel Good Stories

As defined in the Collins dictionary, A feel-good story is a story which presents people and life in a way which makes the people who read or watch it feel happy and optimistic. Well it seems we should be spreading these types of stories if this is the outcome, but alas today’s news media seems bent on vindictive, hateful, salacious and false narratives to promote their own agenda. That’s when we decided to start the Real Feel-Good Stories platform. 

Work Less For More

This  platform is dedicated to stories about finding surprising successes that lead to life-changing results. I wanted to provide an accurate and balanced perspective on how these achievements were accomplished, hoping that it may spark something in someone else leading to what so many want… Financial Security

Fashions Over 50

Fashion is fun at all ages so we wanted to spread the word that fashion is not dead at 50, 60, or even 90, for that matter.
This is a platform dedicated to content about fun, informative, creative, and suitable fashion. We wanted to provide an accurate and balanced perspective of fashion for seniors, hoping that it may spark something in others.    

Movies Forgotten

There are so many classics that need to be seen again, and also amazingly there are quite a few contemporary films that are relatively unknown but true gems. This platform is dedicated to all these films and introduces or reintroduces them to all movie goers. We provide basic insights and reviews allowing all readers to decide if this movie was for them. We also wanted to provide an accurate perspective on the intricacies and sometimes difficulties in accomplishing these achievements

Cultures Combine

Cultures combining is the sharing of ideas, values, traditions, and practices between different cultures. This has numerous benefits for both individuals and communities. First and foremost, Cultures Combine promotes diversity and understanding. Engaging with people from different cultures gives us a broader perspective of the world and a deeper appreciation for different ways of life. It helps us recognize our similarities and differences, breaking down stereotypes and fostering a sense of unity

Try Positive Parenting

Try Positive Parenting is to inform readers about ideas, tips, lessons and other experiences to help navigate the very challenging but incredibly rewarding life of parenthood. Positive parenting describes a set of parental behaviours that support a child’s capacity to love, trust, explore and learn. The theory of positive parenting is that with a trusting, nurturing relationship with their parents, a child can form secure attachments, which can positively affect both their present behaviours and future health outcomes.
