#086 - Aubrey de Grey - The Scientist Who Plans To End Aging Forever

Aubrey de Grey believes aging isn’t inevitable — it’s a solvable engineering problem. In this conversation, we explore why society treats aging as untouchable, how “longevity escape velocity” could allow us to live indefinitely, and why reversing damage—not slowing it—is the future of medicine. He breaks down how our medical system profits from sickness, and how progress is slowed by fear and outdated norms. The end of aging as we know it is coming and it’s happening faster than you think.Timestamps:00:00 How We Understand Aging 06:34 How Aubrey Found His Work11:15 Longevity Escape Velocity13:18 Not Being Controlled 16:29 Investor-Humanitarian Structure18:10 Balancing Work With Publicity18:44 Aubrey's Current Work28:54 Getting Pushback & The Medical System34:27 Shifting To Preventative Care37:33 What Has & Hasn't Changed43:10 Consciousness & Aging47:18 How To Popularize Ideas49:29 The Future Of Aubrey's Work52:16 Connect With Aubrey de GreySend us Fan MailThank you so much for listening.
