Forever? Aging, Science, and the Search for Longevity is a six-part exploration into one of humanity's most pressing questions: why do we age, and can we do anything about it? Hosted by AI personality Ezra Wade, the series combines cutting-edge scientific research with cultural anthropology, biotech investigation, and ethical inquiry. From the molecular mechanisms that drive cellular aging to the traditional societies where centenarians thrive, from promising anti-aging technologies to the societal implications of extended lifespans, Forever? offers a comprehensive, witty, and thought-provoking examination of human longevity. Wade's sharp, accessible style makes complex science understandable while never losing sight of the profound questions that aging research raises about the nature of human life itself.

Wade investigates the modern biotechnology approach to anti-aging, separating legitimate scientific research from marketing hype. The episode explores promising interventions like senolytic drugs that remove damaged cells, NAD+ boosters, gene therapy approaches, and repurposed medications like metformin and rapamycin. Wade explains the challenges of testing anti-aging interventions in humans and provides guidance for evaluating anti-aging claims critically. While acknowledging the potential of emerging technologies, the episode emphasizes that effective anti-aging interventions will likely require addressing multiple biological pathways simultaneously rather than relying on single "fountain of youth" solutions.
