Why the Rich Want to Live Forever — with Kara Swisher

Kara Swisher joins Scott Galloway to discuss her new CNN series Kara Swisher Wants to Live Forever — and what she uncovered about the billion-dollar longevity industry. They explore why tech elites are obsessed with living forever, how trends like peptides and biohacking took off, and why most of it is noise. Plus, what actually works: the simple, unsexy factors that matter most for living longer, and why wealth and access may be the biggest advantages of all.

Raging Moderates: Trump Spirals as Iran Blockade Triggers Recession Fears (ft. Sen. Chris Murphy)

Big news! We’ve just been nominated for a Webby Award for Best News & Politics Podcast! Now it’s time to bring it home — and we need your help.  Cast your vote HERE: ⁠⁠https://wbby.co/57448N⁠ [https://wbby.co/57448N] Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down the escalating crisis following the Trump administration’s Iran blockade—and what it could mean for the global economy. As tensions intensify in the Strait of Hormuz and negotiations stall between the U.S. and Iran, markets are flashing warning signs that a broader economic shock may already be unfolding. Senator Chris Murphy joins the show to discuss the legality of the administration’s actions, Congress’s inability to assert War Powers authority, and whether the U.S. is being pushed toward a wider conflict without meaningful checks and balances. The conversation also explores growing international backlash, shifting alliances in Europe and the Middle East, and the potential fallout for global trade and energy markets. With the IMF warning of slowing global growth, rising inflation, and increased recession risk, the panel examines whether Trump’s Iran strategy could trigger a broader economic downturn—and what, if anything, can be done to stop it.

China Decode: China Steps In as Trump’s Ceasefire Unravels

What began as a fragile ceasefire has turned into a U.S.-led blockade of the Strait of Hormuz — and China is moving to capitalize. As tensions between the U.S. and Iran escalate, Beijing is quietly positioning itself as a global power broker — nudging diplomacy while sidestepping responsibility.  At the same time, Donald Trump is firing back with tariff threats, linking instability in the Middle East directly to U.S.–China tensions. Alice and James discuss whether or not the Chinese government is providing military aid to Iran, and explore why that’s such a fraught question. Plus — how China is playing both sides, and what it all means for global markets and oil prices. And then, author and China scholar Eyck Freymann joins the show to talk about Taiwan — and the looming military threats that a China-led “reunification” effort would pose. From Beijing’s outreach to Taiwan’s opposition, to the ramifications of a potential conflict on the global semiconductor industry, Alice, James and Eyck explore what the consequences of a direct confrontation over Taiwan could be — and whether, in the threat of a Chinese invasion, the U.S. would have what it takes to deter war.
