10% Happier with Dan Harris
Plus: Hyperbaric chambers, red-light therapy, mRNA, cancer research, and the surprising importance of boredom and friction. Kara Swisher is a veteran tech journalist, host of the Pivot [https://podcasts.voxmedia.com/show/pivot] podcast with Scott Galloway, and one of the most influential voices covering the intersection of technology and power. Her new CNN documentary series, Kara Swisher Wants to Live Forever [https://www.cnn.com/videos/title-2555467], takes on the longevity industry — separating genuine medical breakthroughs from the pseudoscience being sold to anyone with a credit card and a fear of aging. Kara Swisher has been covering Silicon Valley longer than most of its billionaires have been rich — and she's watched them turn a simple fear of death into a multi-billion dollar industry of expensive, largely unproven interventions. After her own stroke at 49, she decided to investigate: what actually works, what's a grift, and what does the science really say about living longer? The result is a new CNN documentary series that's part BS-detector, part genuinely hopeful look at the medical breakthroughs that could change everything. This conversation covers both. We talked about: * Why biohacking culture is basically a men's eating disorder dressed up as science * Bryan Johnson, Peter Attia, and what Silicon Valley gets catastrophically wrong about longevity * The supplements, therapies, and interventions that are mostly hype (peptides, hyperbaric chambers, red light therapy, full-body scans) * What VO2 max actually measures — and why it's one of the few metrics worth tracking * GLP-1 drugs: the real promise behind the Ozempic headlines * The mRNA breakthroughs that could produce a pancreatic cancer vaccine * Why your relationships are a more powerful longevity drug than anything you can buy * The case for boredom, friction, and putting your phone down * How thinking about death every day can make you happier and less afraid Get the 10% with Dan Harris app here [https://app.danharris.com/membership] Sign up for Dan's free newsletter here [http://www.danharris.com/] Follow Dan on social: Instagram [https://bit.ly/3tGigG5], TikTok [https://bit.ly/3FOA84J] Subscribe to our YouTube Channel [https://bit.ly/3FybRzD] This episode is sponsored by: Eight Sleep: Use code DanHarris at eightsleep.com/danharris [http://eightsleep.com/danharris] for up to $350 off the Pod 5, with a 30-day trial if it's not for you.
