Blue Zones vs. Biohacking: Two Opposite Paths to Longevity with Dave Asprey
About this episode
Is 100 years old "too young" to die? In this historic episode, Dan Buettner (founder of Blue Zones) sits down with Dave Asprey (the "Father of Biohacking") to debate the future of human longevity. While they represent opposite ends of the spectrum—one focusing on beans and community, the other on stem cells and gene therapy—they find surprising middle ground on how to "hack" your environment for a longer, more vibrant life.
Dave Asprey opens up about his personal journey from chronic illness and Asperger’s to founding a global movement. They dive deep into the science of circadian biology, the "dark art" of marketing wellness, and why forgiveness might be the most important biohack of all.
