| 0:10.0 | Today is an interview about what's going on inside your cells. |
| 0:16.0 | In the last, oh, four or so years, there has been a surprising and unprecedented surge in the speed of some types of |
| 0:26.4 | cancer proliferation that I've been hearing about from a variety of friends in the |
| 0:30.0 | field and cancer is one of the big four killers if you've read |
| 0:34.6 | superhuman which is my big book on longevity that sort of set a framework that a |
| 0:39.3 | lot of longevity books are using now. There's four things to do to not die and then there's a bunch of other |
| 0:44.8 | things you do to support the systems that are in your body and not getting cancer |
| 0:49.7 | or at least surviving cancer because you detected it early is one of the biggest things you could do to live a long time. |

| 1:16.1 | pioneering early cancer detection technologies. And we're going to talk about |
| 1:21.1 | multi-cancer early detection or something called a |
| 1:24.1 | grail test something I first did almost I want to say seven eight years ago |
| 1:28.9 | because regular cancer screenings are part of my longevity strategy. It used to be just sort of a |
| 1:34.0 | scary thing, wait till you see a lump, which means it's really big, or get a blood |
| 1:38.0 | test and see what happens if you can detect something way before you could see it. |
| 1:43.0 | And let's talk with the world's expert on this kind of stuff. |
