Listen Later

Evgeny meets ‘anti-ageing poster boy’ Bryan Johnson, the entrepreneur whose ‘Project Blueprint’ aims to extend the human lifespan. He also talks to the 46-year-old’s doctor Oliver Zolman, who details how they’re approaching a controversial area of emerging science. In this episode we talk about:


·      How they slowed Bryan’s speed of ageing “by the equivalent of 31 years”

·      Why Oliver Zolman thinks humans “can live 25% longer”

·      Can we improve humans “at the speed of technology”?

·      How the emergence of AI has made “death our only enemy”

·      Oliver Zolman’s Six Principles for biohacking beginners

·      How Bryan achieved “8 months of perfect sleep” by designing his life around the need for it

·      What Dr Zolman sees as the biggest health threat to western countries

·      Is the resistance to longevity research more cultural than scientific?
