E27: The Lazarus Experiment & Obsession with youth

We're back on earth for this episode, and discussing a very earthly concern - the obsession with youth! Women are forced to care cause you essenitally become invisible if you don't... but maybe it comes down to no one wanting to be reminded of their own mortality? Lots to unpack... but somehow we also end up talking about vampires and The Sound of Music for ages. Enjoy!
