Description

In this thought-provoking episode of The More Freedom Foundation, hosts Rob and Ruairi embark on an exploration of the elusive quest for immortality. Rob’s desire to live forever sparks a conversation that spans the fascinating landscape of longevity research.

Longevity Escape Velocity (LEV): Inspired by the visionary (or crank?) Aubrey de Grey, the concept of LEV tantalizes us—a point where, for every year we survive, we gain an extra year. But is it achievable, or merely a dream?



The Tired Pursuit of Eternal Youth: The field of anti-aging has seen its share of promises and setbacks. From resveratrol to rapamycin, researchers have explored various avenues. Yet, the elusive fountain of youth remains elusive.


Join us as we delve into the science, ethics, and hopes surrounding longevity. Can we truly escape the clutches of time, or is aging an inevitable part of the human experience? Tune in for a captivating discussion that transcends mortality itself.

The More Freedom Foundation is trying to save the world every week. We’re at an odd point in history. We could be on the cusp of a new Golden Age, or we could be marching down the path to World War III. Despite the picture presented by most of our media, the world really is in great shape. The world is governed by US power and a set of institutions that have largely succeeded in bringing about unparalleled peace and prosperity. The only country strong enough to tear down this Pax Americana is the US itself.
