Kara Swisher Wants to Live Forever
Kara Swisher investigates the fast-growing world of longevity and anti-aging, cutting through the hype to separate real science from the wishful thinking. Fueled by the early death of her father and her own very serious health scare, she explores how far humans will go to extend their lives. Bringing decades of experience covering the technology industry, Swisher interrogates the belief among the world's wealthiest innovators that sheer ambition can finally outsmart mortality. In each episode, she draws on her deep connections in Silicon Valley and beyond, stepping in as both reporter and test subject to examine the unconventional emerging technologies shaping how long and how well we may live.
