Last time I had Dr. Aubrey de Grey on Singularity 1 on 1 the interview turned out to be a hit. In fact, it is still by far the most popular podcast that I have done and the audio file has been listened to or downloaded over 30,000 times.

Given Aubrey’s popular appeal and the importance of his work, it is no surprise that I am thrilled to have him back for a second interview. However, please keep in mind that this interview is aiming to supplement and not replace the first one. Thus, this time around, we cover some topics that we did not have time to go over the previous time, so if you haven’t heard the first podcast, you may want to begin here.

During this conversation, I ask Dr. de Grey to discuss issues such as the term natural death and its impact; the publicity and importance of two long-awaited documentaries about Ray Kurzweil – Transcendent Man and The Singularity is Near; traditional metabolic and more recent DNA tests such as the ones done by 23andMe and others; the slow developmental process of new drugs and therapies, and the problems of taking them from testing in lab rats to humans;  the Thomas Malthus argument of overpopulation and Aubrey’s reply to it.

As always you can listen to or download the audio file above or scroll down and watch the video interview in full. To show your support, you can write a review on iTunes, make a direct donation, or become a patron on Patreon.

In today’s podcast episode, I am very privileged to have Terry Grossman. Terry generously agreed to do this interview from his office in Colorado, and for about an hour, we covered a number of very useful and interesting topics, such as the story and motivation behind his work; the most important medical tests that we all need to do to find out where we are and thereby figure out what we need to do to improve longevity; Terry’s top tips for a healthy lifestyle and achieving maximum life-span;  his positions on religion, the singularity, and artificial intelligence. I have to admit that I not only enjoyed immensely my interview with Terry, but I also learned a ton of very useful information that will help me personally to live a healthier and longer life. I believe that you, too, can benefit from listening to Terry’s advice and reading his books.

Who is Terry Grossman?

Terry Grossman is one of America’s leading authorities in anti-aging and longevity medicine. He has co-authored two books with the famed inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil, TRANSCEND: Nine Steps to Living Well Forever (2009) and Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough to Live Forever (2004). Grossman has written numerous articles for health-related magazines and lectures frequently on topics related to anti-aging medicine nationally and internationally to lay and professional audiences.

A 1968 graduate of Brandeis University, Dr. Grossman received his M.D. from the University of Florida in 1979. Following his postgraduate training at St. Joseph Hospital in Denver, he spent 15 years as a community family doctor in the Colorado mountains before opening Grossman Wellness Center in Denver in 1994. His clinic emphasizes advanced nutritional therapies and preventive, anti-aging medicine. Grossman has developed numerous cutting-edge protocols for measuring and modifying biological age and promoting longevity. To learn more see GrossmanWellness.com

Ethos: “Technology is the How, not the Why or What. So you can have the best possible How but if you mess up your Why or What you will do more damage than good. That is why technology is not enough.” Nikola Danaylov
