Your book was just coming out on longevity and Peter Atiyah's book. It just seemed like the dinner table conversation and the stack sharing on social media, it was happening. This wasn't just a biohacker. I'm taking this. What are you taking? Exactly.

I'm a Function investor. I'm happy about that. But I wanted to tackle this space, which I found to be an incredibly gray area of understanding what to do. And so that's where it formed. I remember the first day, I had the idea in my head. So a friend of mine came over for dinner without me saying anything.

They didn't know.
