Show notes

In this episode, legendary tech journalist Kara Swisher joins Dan Buettner to pull back the curtain on the multi-billion dollar longevity industry. Fresh off her own investigative journey into the world of elite biohacking, Swisher explains why she has traded high-tech interventions like stem cell treatments and cold plunges for the simpler, evidence-based wisdom found in the Blue Zones. Together, they dismantle the "marketing bunk" of Silicon Valley’s immortality quest, discussing why the obsession with living forever often misses the point of living well. Swisher offers her signature unfiltered take on everything from the "charlatan circus" of health influencers to the profound impact of social connection and public policy on our collective lifespan. It is a candid conversation about moving past the hype to find a longevity strategy that is grounded in reality, community, and common sense.
