Hey everybody, welcome to the 10% Happier podcast. I'm your host, Dan Harris. Today we're going to talk to the legendary tech journalist, Kara Swisher, about the misleading and often very expensive longevity bullshit that we all encounter online and elsewhere. Kara Swisher is not only going to debunk some of this stuff, but she's also going to talk about what she has found in her research actually works to live a longer and healthier life. Some of the things she'll talk about that actually work, you will have heard of, but she will also reveal some really interesting technological innovations that are coming down the pike at us that could have far-reaching and really awesome effects on the species.

Many of you will know Kara Swisher. She is, as I said, a legendary tech journalist. She's been around for a minute. She is the co-host of the Pivot podcast. She co-hosts that alongside Scott Galloway, who's been on the show a couple times.

She has a solo podcast that's called On with Kara Swisher. But most relevant for this podcast, she is the star and host of a new docu-series on HBO Max that just dropped. That's called Kara Swisher Wants to Live Forever. So we'll talk to Kara Swisher right after this quick break. A few things before we hear from our sponsors, we've got this awesome new series launching soon on my new-ish meditation app, 10% with Dan Harris.
