From Naked Mole Rats To Dog Testicles: A Writer Explores The Longevity Quest

Audiophiles rejoice!

In a first here, there is actually an audio component to this post.  I was lucky to have this keep me company during an awful commute home this afternoon.

This is an NPR – Fresh Air story with an interview of writer Bill Gifford.  He is talking about his new book – Spring Chicken, Stay Young Forever or Die Trying.

The author “explores everything from some wacky pseudo-cures for aging to fascinating research that point to causes of aging at the cellular level…”

Never fear, there is some accompanying text as well, but if you have the time, plug in and listen to the audio.
