What if the key to a longer, healthier life has already been discovered—and no one’s talking about it? In this episode of The Jocular Pugilists, Phil and Tomas dive into a groundbreaking scientific breakthrough: reprogramming human cells to a youthful state with the help of AI. From Nobel Prize-winning research on stem cells to the latest work by Retro Bio, they explore how large language models are accelerating medical discoveries that could repair organs, erase wrinkles, and extend lifespans by decades. Along the way, they mix in humor, personal stories, and even some celebrity encounters—from bachelor parties and yacht rock gigs to bumping into the cast of Severance. Packed with laughs and mind-bending possibilities, this episode tackles the science, philosophy, and cultural shockwaves of what might be the most important discovery of our time
