133: Don't Bury Me, Freeze Me - The New Billionaire Obsesson with Cryonics
What if preserving your body after death wasn’t science fiction—but science in progress?
In this mind-expanding conversation, James Arrowood of Alcor dives deep into the science and ethics of cryonics, explaining how ultra-cold preservation of human tissue could transform the future of medicine, organ banking, and even space travel. Learn how cryonics works, how Alcor operates as a non-profit, and what it means for our understanding of consciousness, trauma medicine, and longevity.
We explore the cutting-edge technology behind cryopreservation, why some scientists believe revival may be possible, and how preserving the brain could one day unlock new frontiers in medical research. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, this episode will challenge how you think about life, death, and everything in between.
