In this Moonshot Special of Longevity Unpacked, I sit down with Will Harborne and Sebastian Brunemeier from LongGame Ventures. They’re not just talking about supplements or lifestyle hacks, they’re backing companies working on gene therapies, stem cell treatments, organ replacement, and even embryo selection.

We also dig into why longevity biotech feels like crypto in 2012, what the “GLP1 of aging” might be, and the ethical questions that come with reshaping how long humans can live.

📌 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why longevity biotech is at the same stage today as crypto was a decade ago

How cell therapy and gene therapy are already reversing disease and extending healthspan

The science of epigenetic reprogramming and Yamanaka factors

Why cloning without consciousness could unlock unlimited organ replacement

The rise of embryo selection and what it means for the future of humanity

The coming GLP1 moment for longevity drugs

How AI and superintelligence will accelerate biotech breakthroughs

The demographic crisis of aging populations and how biotech can solve it

The ethical questions around immortality, consciousness, and equity of access

What Sebastian and Will believe the world could look like by 2040
