We boomers have to admit that our flower power is getting a wee bit long of tooth. The metaphor may be mixed but the message is the same—we are growing older. But, true to our revolutionary spirit, a number of our generation’s scientists are on an active quest to achieve immortality. And, according to our guest, they just might pull it off!

Chip Walter is a science author, filmmaker, and former CNN bureau chief whose books include Last Ape Standing and Thumbs, Toes, and Tears. Among other notable publications his writing has appeared in The Wall Street JournalScientific American and National Geographic magazine. Chip is joining us to share all about his latest collaboration with National Geographic. It’s his just released new book entitled: Immortality, Inc., Renegade Science, Silicon Valley Billions, and the Quest to Live Forever. Believe me, you are going to want to hear all about this one!
