AI, Aging & Living to 150: The Conversation Everyone Needs to Hear

Is It Science or Snake Oil? A Physician’s Guide to Smarter Health Decisions

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Bobby Dubois to unpack why so much health advice is driven by hype instead of evidence. We explore how to evaluate medical claims, when studies actually matter, how to run your own N-of-1 trials, and what AI will (and won’t) replace in medicine. This conversation will sharpen how you think about longevity, supplements, and modern healthcare. Dr. Bobby Dubois is a physician, scientist, Ironman triathlete, and host of Live Long and Well With Dr. Bobby. He trained at Harvard, earned his medical degree from Johns Hopkins, completed his Internal Medicine residency at Harbor-UCLA, and holds a PhD in Health Policy from the RAND Corporation. He has published more than 180 peer-reviewed scientific articles. As a physician-scientist, Dr. Dubois has dedicated his career to understanding what truly works in healthcare—and what does not—using rigorous scientific evidence to guide patients toward better health decisions. In recent years, he has focused his work on helping others live longer with renewed energy as they age, applying an evidence-based lens to longevity and wellness. Equal parts educator and myth-buster, he is also the owner of Madrone Springs Ranch, an exotic animal ranch and bed and breakfast in Texas, where principles of wellness and longevity are woven into the guest experience.

Healthspan vs Lifespan: Why Living Longer Isn’t Enough

Dr. Blane Mire explores longevity escape velocity, healthspan, sleep, purpose, and why America’s aging crisis isn’t a technology problem. In this episode, I continue my conversation with Dr. Blane Mire as we explore longevity escape velocity, healthspan versus lifespan, and why Americans age more poorly despite higher healthcare spending. We dive into sleep, nutrition, stress, movement, and the overlooked role of purpose and meaning in aging well. This conversation connects science, lifestyle, and humanity—focusing on living better, not just longer. Dr. Blane Mire began his medical education journey attending Louisiana State University School of Medicine in Shreveport, La. He completed his Internal Medicine residency program through LSUMC in Baton Rouge, LA, in 1998. He has spent his career in private practice in Natchez, Mississippi, just a short drive up the Mississippi River from Baton Rouge. In recent years, he has focused on expanding his knowledge and completed a fellowship in anti-aging, functional, and regenerative medicine through A4M. Dr. Mire has continued to pursue education and specialized training to stay at the forefront of this exciting area of medicine. He also holds certifications in Longevity Medicine and Peptides.
