Show Notes

Zoltan Istvan doesn't believe that issues of life extension, genetic modification, and neural prosthetics are the problems for the president in the year 220, but that they're among the most important considerations of the future of America, and of human life in general.

In this interview, I ask Zoltan what kinds of technology and health initiatives he'd get behind as a president, as well as his own thoughts as to how concerns of merging technology might be brought to the forefront of American awareness (without a disaster, that is).
