David Sinclair: How Not To Die (with special guests Stephen Fry and David Walliams)

Is it possible to live forever – and would you even want to? Evgeny Lebedev is joined by Stephen Fry and David Walliams to explore the science and ethics of age reversal. He also meets longevity pioneer Dr David Sinclair, who gives advice on how to extend lifespans - and tells David Walliams how to reverse his biological clock. In this episode:

  • Why Stephen Fry doesn’t want to live forever
  • What causes us to age faster and can we reverse it?
  • Has the first human to live to 150 already been born?
  • Are worries about ‘fat shaming’ encouraging unhealthy lifestyles?

  • Do individual health choices place a burden on society?
  • Can David Walliams extend his life?
