Episode notes

We always want the option to be able to die. That is an option that we would like to retain. We don't want the curse of watching the massinations of the universe pass by us for thousands and thousands of years while we watch our families and love ones come and go. Like, we are just this being that exists in this space time continuum at some unknown where time just becomes weird. And so there's two guardrails that we want to split between - when we say life is good, we mean to stick between these two things. But also we don't want to be decrepit forever. We want our health and our rejuvenation to be very, very strong.

In this video, we delve into the frontier of longevity and the pursuit of living forever. The discussion of longevity sparks different reactions among people, with some rejecting the idea outright, deeming it unnatural or immoral.

At Zuzalu, two distinct groups emerged—the Health and Wellness tribe, focused on healthy lifestyles, and the longevity tribe, resembling crypto enthusiasts, passionately researching the silver bullet for eternal life.

We explore the two conversations of slowing down aging and accelerating rejuvenation, with a particular focus on the latter. Interviews with Patrick Linden, author of "The Case Against Death," Sergio Ruiz, an epigenetic reprogramming expert, and Michael Greer, founder of the Humanity app, shed light on the socio-cultural reactions, DNA reprogramming, and AI-driven longevity scoring.

While the pursuit of longevity faces regulatory challenges, its potential to eliminate diseases and revolutionize healthcare holds transformative power. The quest for extended health spans offers tremendous benefits for humanity's future.
