About this listen

Frank may be jet-lagged and mystified but he’s still determined. His final efforts are rewarded with a revelatory phone-call.

Well produced and interesting. If something critical, could have included the technocracy aspect more as it is as fringe in the end.

Interesting and terrifying

Quality podcast and excellently presented to make it entertaining and on an important topic. What is missing throughout is that no reference is ever made to the big flaws and financial links of the FDA together with big pharmaceuticals and how top jobs are linked between themselves and how research funding is almost entirely funded by big pharmaceutical, with their own agendas and profit motivations. Being healthy isn’t in their interests and drugs masking illnesses are prescribed all too often instead of researching life enhancing wellness throughout, and how we age. Elizabeth, with her desire for longevity, isn’t explored with reference to taking on the establishment which she clearly is - it’s easy to quash anyone out of line with big pharmaceutical and FDA too often plodding and peddling & delaying - it’s all about money in the end. Health span and longevity progress has indeed been held back as an inevitable and unfortunate result.

Great Podcast & Entertaining but…

…somewhat compromised by the conventions of documentary podcasts. A bit too much Theroux-esque soul-searching and disingenuous dramatic twistiness for my taste. I prefer the the story straight and it would allow more space for the actual science. Which is really interesting.

Fascinating topic well researched but…

Having been shocked by the Elizabeth Holmes/Theronos controversy I listened to this with great interest. Lots of great interviews and good insight into where science might lead us.
