So biological aging is kind of the deterioration of the human body.

We need to, with this conversation and others, come up with ways to stop the deterioration and, if anything, come up with ways to maintain that ability to live long or free of disease.

It's not a big brother or anything that's a game show.

We all go through different emotions and things like that.

So I think you can feel it.

Are you religious?

Yes, Catholic.

Roman Catholic, yeah.

And you're a family man?

A French bulldog and a cat, as we talked about, and a wife at home, yeah, and really close to my family and stuff like that.

Oh, yeah.

I think it would be a lasting impression on my students that, wow, he changed my life in some way.

And if I can make one person live longer, free of disease and happier, I'm all for it.

You know, when you start to see the human body as people get older, you're like, oh, that person used to be young and vibrant.

And then when you hear other people that can't do activities they live in or they can't travel or they're afraid to, I'm like, you need to embrace today.

I love that quote from Morgan Freeman Shawshank, get busy living or get busy dying.

Because honestly, we have the ability...

with lifestyle choices to improve optimization.

And I want to see people live to be 120, 130, still active, still going.

And I think we're on the cusp with technology.
