Bryan Johnson: Turning Back Time

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?
