Playing God or Saving Nature? Gene Editing, Artificial Wombs & the Return of Extinct Species | Ben Lamm PT 2

Welcome back to the second half of this eye-opening discussion with Ben Lamm, CEO of Colossal Biosciences. In Part 2, Tom and Ben dig even deeper, tackling the massive ethical questions and transformative possibilities that arise when humans hold the keys to edit and design life itself. Whether it’s confronting the future of embryo screening, germline editing, the potential for designer babies, or the international arms race in biotechnology—no topic is off limits.


Ben shares insider stories on Colossal’s dire wolf project, explains misconceptions about cloning, and reveals the unexpected hurdles and breakthroughs in the world of synthetic biology. They discuss how these advances can directly impact human longevity, environmental crises like plastic pollution, and even set the stage for building the living cities and ocean habitats of tomorrow. This is a no-holds-barred, jam-packed episode for anyone intrigued by the future of engineering life—and the urgent questions we all must face as the bio-revolution unfolds.
