What if life wasn’t just about living longer but about transcending the limits of human potential itself? In this episode, we dive deep into Bryan Johnson’s audacious "Don't Die" blueprint. It's not just a biohacking plan—it’s a revolutionary mindset for a future where humanity evolves alongside superintelligence. Johnson spends millions yearly in a radical experiment to not only extend his own life but challenge the very boundaries of aging, intelligence, and existence as we know it. Join us as we unpack his science-backed protocols, from nutrient-dense diets to futuristic therapies and AI-driven data on longevity. But it goes deeper—this philosophy questions the role of mortality, the power of data over biology, and what a future of optimized humans might look like. Is Johnson just a visionary or rewriting the rules of human life? Tune in, and decide for yourself. And remember, in a world of endless possibilities… don’t die.
