Bryan Johnson began his life as an entrepreneur, buying, selling, and growing companies like Venmo to build a healthy living for himself. Several years ago, he became fascinated with the idea of maximizing human technology to extend the length and quality of one's life as far as possible. Today, he lives as the most tested man in the world at the center of "Project Blueprint", where drawing on his access to wealth and resources, he pushes the boundaries of human existence to see if he can become the oldest person of all time. As someone who has pushed back quite strongly against biohacking and "optimizing" one's health beyond homeostasis, I was fascinated to ask Bryan about his approach to life and fact-check him on a few of his theories.

The problem is that he is using a lot of stuff all the time. He can be measured as often as he wants, but if something positive changes through a new drug you cannot tell if it was really through that drug or treatment or if it was the combined effect of all stuff together and every one thing alone wouldn't'd do anything, or he has started a new treatment a month ago, then the next one, something good happens, everyone thinks it was the second treatment, but it was the first or the one before just acting a little late. I don't think that what he is doing is clinically viable and can only lead to traces of new knowledge.

My biggest takeaway from this is that when Bryan is challenged on his methodology he doesn't get defensive as so many others do, he simply states that he doesn't know and presents his argument as to why he believes it will work and how he is objectively measuring it.

I kind of stated short without saying much about it, but he seems like a person that enjoys experimenting, being innovative and working towards goals. He also has a ton of money so he is able to use a lot of time focusing on that. I guess my thought process was that the average person, working full time, spending all additional time focusing on things to “live forever” may interfere with other pieces of happiness such as family time, friend time, alone time, activities, whatever it may be. And again, that’s generalized, there are lots of variables to what would make someone happy in life. 🤷♀️

There was an older comment that kinda answers this: """ A part of the debate around this guy's lifestyle that doesn't get discussed enough is his unique situation to do all this. And I don't mean just the fact he can afford it, which he does talk about. I mean that he had the time in his day, this is basically his job at this point. So he's less having to trade his free time for his health and longevity dedication like most of us would. He gets to still have free time for things he enjoys like family. This changes the quality vs quantity debate quite a lot. """ My personal take: It is admirable that he does something to advance the species, at the same time it highlights how enormously unacceptable it has become to be poor. Charlie Chaplin said something along the the lines: "As long as tyrants still die there is hope.". It is a lot easier to accept that most people never get to live their dreams, that competition for the sake of competition in a capitalistic system is moot, as long as we share the same fate. He is a trailblazer and I think the hate is motivated by people that would love to explore with him, but society isn't set up for this currently. Even he has to treat this as a business as no-one can predict how long modern slavery will continue.

Again, personally I think it is good that someone is doing what he does, highlighting the inequality in society comes with the territory and the hate he gets is misplaced, but will hopefully lead to having the grossest inequalities reexamined. I just image that is the reason for the hate, personally I haven't seen much of it, might be best to ask the people infuriated?

I have watched multiple interviews with Bryan Johnson. This was one of the best, it was conducted in a great pace and with questions which really made sense.

This particular ideology is dependent on technology changing everything and stopping aging and eventually solving most (or all) of our problems. If we hypothetically assume that to be the case, the idea would be that if you live long enough you’ll get to experience completely new things that haven’t yet been thought of. You might also get to do all the things you want to do now (that you feel might increase your quality of life) and more For example: If we had complete control over our biology in the future, you might get to eat all those potato chips or whatever else you wanted to do and it wouldn’t matter anymore. So the quality of life you have now wouldn’t seem like a big deal. If you lived 500 years, you’d probably look back and say “wow the first 40 years of my life weren’t exactly what I wanted, but these last 300 have been awesome.” This part of your life would probably seem like less than a prologue For some people, I guess those possibilities are worth making some sacrifices

He’s basically surrendering his body and life to the research and furthering what we know about longevity. I love watching his videos, fascinating!

what an absolute masterclass on both ends. The right questions were asked by Dr.Mike and Bryan was open. Both discussing the subject calmly while putting their opinions/experiences on the table in a transparent way, even if they colide at times. Another great interview from Dr.Mike
I didn’t how much I needed this podcast because in most cases I see videos with Bryan Johnson as rich man with some cool slash weird gimmick while this podcast actually deeply shows he is thoughts process rather simply saying I want live longer.
Don't get why some people say the interviewer is being condescending. Just because he's asking pointed questions and challenging the believes doesn't mean it can't be done respectfully.

I would love to see Bryan's work expand to mental health and trauma. I think there is sooooo much humans have to cope with that negatively impacts their health, literally impacting things like immune response, breathing, etc. and to the best of my knowledge, nobody is bridging the gap here either. I would especially like to see this with children/people who grow up in the foster care or group home situations; a massive percentage of these people end up living on the streets and having severe addictions at frighteningly young ages. Nobody can simply just tell those people to sleep more or eat better; the absence of parental and societal love has deep, deep impacts. Imagine somebody could say, "so, you went through [insert trauma here], which resulted in x and *this is how we fix that* "! So few people have access to affordable, quality therapy that supports not only the mental & emotional well being but also tracks things physically to determine physical effects. Healthcare is still far too much of a piecemeal model with specialists not talking to one another and the patient kept largely out of the loop. Maybe one day Bryan will be minister of Health in some part of the world. I wonder what he'd do in a role like that. Anyway, lovely and intriguing interview. :)

A single person experiment that costs millions will do nothing to advance the human race as such, when the majority of that race lives in poverty lacking basic stuff. Very, very few people have access to that level of care that he's using for his experiment. Moreover, thinking that the outcomes of a single case study can be generalised and considered valid for the entire population is flawed and goes against the very core of that science that he claims he understands and uses to his benefit. And ultimately - longevity is overrated. It really really is.
Hands down the most exciting interview and topic I've seen. The approach to arguments, listening and answering, the knowledge and understanding and respect. Notice how when doctor Mike makes the argument about "don't die" possibly coyld be the same thing but from the other end of the spectrum the reply is "Yes. So I try my hardest to prove myself wrong." or along those lines. Makes me so happy!! And I'm only 10 minutes in. I have to sleep 😂

Listening, prompting interesting and relevant conversation, providing valuable and educated criticism, adapting the questions to fit the tone, giving disclaimers when something moves into opinion territory. Submit it as material for college courses on interviewing.
I love how Dr. Mike handles being an interviewer. He's open to his guest's perspectives, really examines their arguments, asks probing questions, and doesn't let the conversation get too derailed if his guests subconsciously fallback on the same tired script because he's identified a point they don't have a good argument against. It leads to such interesting conversations, and I always feel like I better understand his guests perspectives, even though I still might not agree with them.
I really appreciate Bryan’s earnest thoughtfulness - his ability to consider questions, his own experience, and his admission when he doesn’t know or hasn’t considered something. And the questions that provoke this sort of thought. Great conversation between two very thoughtful humans. Great video.
This pod hosted by Dr. Mike and Bryan Johnson provide valuable insights. My key takeaway is the importance of adopting a lifestyle that prioritizes the quality of life. This involves focusing on aspects such as improved nutrition, regular exercise, sufficient sleep, overall mental and emotional well-being, and allowing other uncertainties to resolve themselves. Additionally, it's essential to embrace the mantra of living, loving, and laughing along the way.
Such an incredibly respectful and information rich interview. I can totally relate from 49:46 regarding not wanting a “cheat day”. I know that drinking red wine makes me feel like trash and I can’t sleep at all, where a glass of white at dinner occasionally doesn’t affect me. I know that eating any fast food, deep fried things, sugar, large amounts of bread and dairy, messes with my tummy and make me feel bloated, nauseous and just groggy for at least 3 days. I know that eating a lot of vegetables, certain fruits and lean proteins energize me and help with good sleep. I know that fasting 1-2 days of the week is good for me, not only for religious reasons but also because I feel rejuvenated, more productive and can focus my attention on other important things such as work, praying and spending time with loved ones. So why on earth would I put myself through the pain of having a MacDonalds burger and fries, or a Domino’s pizza, or a glass of red wine at dinner when 1) they don’t even taste very great and 2) I know exactly what I’m getting myself into.
I love what he says about people not focusing on wealth and status and more on just living and being healthy which is something we all have in common. Will definitely make the world a better place I think.
The questions that Doctor Mike asks is always very deep. It is never boring or straightforward

Exactly what Lilium said. Almost nothing to be learned also since what he is doing is trying things that are already in research. The actual research takes hundreds and even thousands of people to figure out if it has a positive correlation to the lifespan and quality. For example even though there is so much research on the heart medicines of today, still doing meta research on the hundreds of studies reveals that it is not so cut and dry if they are good or not. Doing research on one single person is for nothing, when research done on hundreds of thousands if millions of people has difficulty revealing the truth. Not to say he can't prove it for himself. That he can do but to say it will work for everyone is pretty ballsy.

As much as im skeptical of Bryan's data thus far, his intentions and his approach are so admirable. This "live fast, die young" attitude feels like an excuse people use - not to live 'better', but - to abuse their bodies and shrug off the thought of long term consequences. The idea of extending human life feels like it would shift our attitude towards fulfilling lifestyles that are sustainable into advanced age, and by extension, a better attitude towards the planet. omg im writing this comment as i got to 20:39 and Bryan i get it now!

Ай бұрын
Hi, I just wanted to chime in as a "live fast, die young" sort of person, and give my own perspective, without judgement of your own view. For me, there was very much a consideration of long term consequences, and of potential long term consequences. I was a stunt performer, and my body has absolutely paid the price for that. I ache in places I didn't even know I had until I started aching in them, daily life can be challenging, I walk with the swagger of a man old enough to be my father, rather than that of a younger man. What I got in exchange for the physical challenges in my present day, is mental resilience - the knowledge that I can go through difficult things, difficult moments, whether those are excruciating pain, or a more restricted life as a result of injury or illness caused reductions in overall function, and that while things might never be the same as they were before, I will eventually find a new comfortable and happy normal that is physically, mentally, and emotionally fulfilling. In many ways, I prioritized my mental and emotional health over my physical health in being a stunt performer. For me, personally, that has felt like the right choice. While yes, every day is a physical challenge, I snap, crackle and pop more than a bowl of Rice Krispies, and anything that has me standing in one spot for too long can incapacitate me for days afterwards, it has also encouraged me, sometimes painfully, to respect that a body needs rest, but that doesn't mean the mind has to rest. On bad days, I read, I play tabletop roleplaying games, I write, I paint, I draw - things that require minimal physical effort, but give great emotional and mental fulfilment. If I had the opportunity to go back, and make a different choice, I wouldn't, because the person I am today is far more compassionate of my own needs, and far more mentally and emotionally resilient, than I was prior to being a stunt performer. My path was right for my development. The same is also true for someone who is risk averse and chooses a life of low risk - their path is right for them. We're not all the same, and it is the incredible variety of humanity that has been our greatest asset for species survival.

I came here as a skeptical (even biased) but this whole postcast was so mindblowing and eyes opening - I cannot thank both of you enough.
Dr. Mike is my favorite content creator. I have enjoyed every video I have seen by him. He brings up topics that make you think and increase your medical knowledge. I love how respectful he is to everyone. And I love how he reminds me of my baby brother. They have similar features, so he feels like another baby brother to me who is teaching me instead of the other way around. Keeping doing what you do, Dr Mike.
Regarding health trackers. I have asthma. During last weekend I went to help out my dad burn branches and pile up some wood. I got incredibly smoked by that fire for hours. It was inevitable. I am used to doing things knowing it will impact my asthma. I did have to take my medication later. That night I had a very heavy and long sleep but I felt incredibly tired the next day. My watch measured that my breath per minute went way down that night compared to my usual score (which does include some regular asthma). So I understood that I probably slept while having difficulty emptying my lungs. Not knowing this, I would have assumed bad sleep or just exertion from the day before because surely I would wake up if breathing was harder... So lesson learned...Maybe I shouldn't compromise so much when it comes to my lungs. As Dr. Mike said, humans are flawed and I would have never made that pretty obvious connection without that data.
genuinly love this episode. The conversation is so calming to listen to because both participants think in depth about what they're saying/asking. Both answer in they're own way of thinking and perception without being biased and subjective about things. I'd listen to hundreds of hours of this!

I love Bryan. I really admire his discipline and how he's thought through his whole philosophy. Good to see Dr Mike listening so closely with an open mind.
Ive seen so many short blurbs on this guy. All of them seemed gimicky, self serving, and pompous. I guess bc of that, I had no interest in hearing him in a prolonged format, so I didn't do any research on him. However, bc I appreciate Dr. Mike, I gave this interview a chance. Im pleasently surprised at the depth of thought behind how and why this man does what he does. Im still skeptical behind the outcome, but he is extremely thoughtful and gets much right in his thought experiments. At least, in my book.
What an amazing episode filled with deep philosophical ideas and conversation. It really shows how we as humans struggle to get past our psychological barriers as a species, and how AI is likely to be our only hope to ever go beyond our biological limitations of thought.

Not always agreeing upon everything, but being absolutely respectful and listening intently and understanding the other’s opinion, with what seemed to be great respect. I honestly find this whole exchange fascinating. Although I do have a lot of the same questions, doubts, and concerns as Dr. Mike, I found myself also understanding Bryan’s take on certain ideas and concepts. This is his experience and his reality and he is certainly not an ignorant man. Brilliant interview, gentlemen. 👍
Great questions, answers, and opinions. Amazing interview! Wish more interviews were like this.
It’s refreshing to hear a respectful intellectual conversation
I really appreciate mike staying as neutral as possible in his interviews and how he asks hard questions of his controversial interviewees to try further to clarify their position. many podcasters either fall over themselves in the face of their esteemed guests and ask self-indulgent questions or are looking for drama and ask questions that only shut down deeper discussion.
As a man who’s lived for nearly 517 years now, I can honestly say the sunlight is getting more tempting by the decade. Immortality is a scam especially since can’t even remember why I chose this life anymore
Wow, Mike! I really appreciate this conversation. I'll admit, I have come across your videos before where you go against biohacking etc. and my bias was always to not like these videos.

I love Dr. Mike's scientifically astute observations on the public's interpretation of scientific data/"voices" and problems with methodology. This is so useful.
