<p>Today, we’re unlocking the full potential of your brain—starting with Bryan Johnson’s Blueprint for longevity and brain optimization. </p><p>We’re revisiting our conversation with Bryan, the creator of the <em>Don’t Die</em> movement (among many other things), to explore how his groundbreaking approach to brain health and biohacking is reshaping the future of longevity. </p><p>First, we dive into Bryan’s mission to make brain monitoring as easy as tracking blood glucose, using his Blueprint protocol to measure and optimize cognitive performance for better health and wellness. </p><p>Then, we tackle the deeper side of biohacking—longevity, societal reactions to living longer, and how to handle critics when you’re pushing the limits of human potential. </p><p>Finally, Bryan shares his personal journey—investing $80M into brain science, building the Blueprint for optimal living, and discovering the power of community and lifelong friendships for a long, vibrant life. This episode will change the way you think about brain health and the future of humanity. </p><p><br></p><p><strong>Sponsors</strong>: </p><ul><li>Zbiotics | Go to <a href="https://zbiotics.com/DAVE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://zbiotics.com/DAVE</a> for 15% off your first order. </li><li>Our Place | Head to <a href="https://fromourplace.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://fromourplace.com/</a> and use the code DAVE for 10% off your order. </li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Resources</strong>: </p><ul><li><strong>Bryan Johnson’s Blueprint Protocol:</strong> <a href="https://blueprint.bryanjohnson.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blueprint.bryanjohnson.com/</a> </li><li><strong>Bryan Johnson’s Don’t Die Movement:</strong> <a href="https://dontdie.bryanjohnson.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dontdie.bryanjohnson.com/</a> </li><li><strong>Bryan Johnson’s Kernel:</strong> <a href="https://www.kernel.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.kernel.com/</a> </li><li><strong>Bryan Johnson’s YouTube Channel:</strong> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@bryanjohnson_" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@bryanjohnson_</a> </li><li><strong>Bryan Johnson’s Instagram:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bryan_johnson_" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/bryan_johnson_</a> </li><li><strong>Dave Asprey’s Linktree:</strong> <a href="https://linktr.ee/daveasprey" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/daveasprey</a> </li><li><strong>Dave Asprey’s Book ‘Smarter Not Harder’ is out now:</strong> <a href="https://daveasprey.com/books" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://daveasprey.com/books</a> </li><li><strong>Danger Coffee by Dave Asprey:</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dangercoffeeofficial/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/dangercoffeeofficial/</a> </li><li><strong>Supplements by Dave Asprey:</strong> <a href="https://shopsuppgradelabs.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://shopsuppgradelabs.com</a> </li><li><strong>Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live – Upgrade Collective:</strong> <a href="https://www.ourupgradecollective.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.ourupgradecollective.com</a> </li><li><strong>Own an Upgrade Labs:</strong> <a href="https://ownanupgradelabs.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ownanupgradelabs.com</a> </li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Timestamps and Highlights</strong>: </p><p><strong>00:00</strong> Introduction and Bold Claims </p><p><strong>00:39</strong> Meet Bryan Johnson: The Neuroscience Pioneer </p><p><strong>01:23</strong> Kernel: Revolutionizing Brain Measurement </p><p><strong>05:51</strong> Biohacking and Longevity </p><p><strong>07:30</strong> Facing Criticism and Staying Resilient </p><p><strong>16:06</strong> Media Training Insights </p><p><strong>19:49</strong> Personal Reflections and Relationships </p><p><strong>34:37</strong> Exercise and Longevity </p><p><strong>44:46</strong> Optimizing Brain-Body Interface </p><p><strong>45:25</strong> Longevity Hacks and Driving Preferences </p><p><strong>45:48</strong> Debating Olive Oil and Saturated Fats </p><p><strong>46:52</strong> The Blueprint Approach to Health </p><p><strong>48:38</strong> Testing and Metrics in Health </p><p><strong>52:22</strong> Testosterone and Hormone Protocols </p><p><strong>56:27</strong> Exploring Semen Retention </p><p><strong>01:00:44</strong> Body Hair and Aesthetics </p><p><strong>01:04:26</strong> Psychedelics and Consciousness </p><p><strong>01:08:32</strong> Audience Q&A and Final Thoughts </p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener nor
