I think trying to live longer is mostly BS, Juan might disagree with me though.

In Episode #432 of 'Musings', Juan & I discuss: our starting positions and biases, the intense people who make up the longevity movement, some of the outlandish claims that are made, the double PayPal craziness, what they get right about living longer, why sleep/eating well/exercise is kind of neglected and my predictions for the future.

Huge thanks to McIntosh, Cole McCormick & Brian D Oleary for the boostagrams. Your support means the world to us!
