After Shock, Podcast #19 redux: Ending Aging, with Aubrey de Grey

“Your future self is watching right now through your memories.”–Aubrey de Grey

The newly released volume, After Shock, features 50 of the world’s most renowned futurists reflecting on the 50-year legacy of Alvin Toffler’s Future Shock, and looking ahead to the next 50 years. Seven of the contributors have been guests on Seeking Delphi™ This is the sixth in a series of repeats of these podcasts, which will lead up to panel discussion with some of the authors, on the book and the Toffler legacy.

Aubrey de Grey is co-founder and chief science officer of the SENS foundation, and a leader in the global research effort to end aging. This program from 2017 was the first of four appearances for Aubrey on Seeking Delphi.™ All of his previous programs are linked below this first one.

The day I read Future Shock, just a couple of years after it came out, was the day that started me on the course to becoming a futurist. Here’s what I wrote on this blog when Toffler died in July of 2016.
