• When will the science of longevity become reality?
    Feb 2 2025

    As humanity ventures into 2025, we wonder When will the science of longevity become reality?

    In this final episode, we map the timeline of transformative breakthroughs that could redefine aging and human health. From AI-driven drug discoveries in the next five years to cellular reprogramming and lab-grown organs within decades, we explore when these innovations might reshape our lives.


    Looking further ahead, we envision the mid-century rise of nanotechnology and synthetic biology—and even the far-future possibilities of cryogenics and quantum biology. Join us as we chart the road to immortality and consider how soon science will deliver on the promise of radically longer, healthier lives.

  • There is more than one form of immortality
    Feb 2 2025

    What if immortality could transcend biology?

    In this episode, we explore bold frontiers in human existence, from mind uploading and digital consciousness to cryogenic sleep and consciousness transfer.


    Could technology preserve our identities digitally or enable leaps through time? What would immortality mean in a world of bionics, brain-computer interfaces, and even post-human evolution? These possibilities challenge the very essence of life, identity, and purpose.


    Navigate the fascinating, speculative, and deeply ethical questions surrounding humanity’s quest to transcend mortality.

  • What happens to society when living to 100 becomes the norm?
    Feb 2 2025

    What happens when living to 100—or beyond—becomes the norm?

    In this episode, we explore the societal, ethical, and environmental ripple effects of extended lifespans.


    From Japan’s aging population to lessons from the Blue Zones, we uncover how longer lives challenge our systems and redefine concepts like retirement, caregiving, and sustainability.


    Can longevity science benefit everyone, or will it deepen inequalities? How do we ensure extended lifespans enrich humanity, rather than strain our planet? A thought-provoking look at how science, policy, and culture must converge to shape a future where longer lives mean better lives.

  • Can we create a "Youth Pill" ?
    Feb 2 2025

    In this episode, we explore cutting-edge breakthroughs that aim to slow, halt, or even reverse aging.


    Discover how cellular reprogramming uses Yamanaka factors to hit "factory reset" on cells, senolytics clear out harmful “zombie” cells, and CRISPR edits our DNA with precision.


    Learn about NAD+ boosters, a potential energy drink for our cells, and how they’re already showing promise in human trials. But with these incredible advances come big questions: How close are we to a “youth pill,” and what are the risks and ethical challenges?
