<v Speaker 1>Lauren Clint here as well.

0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Now, this story was in the news all across the weekend.

0:00:13.119 --> 0:00:15.520
<v Speaker 2>We're about to introduce you to two special guests, doctor

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:19.480
<v Speaker 2>John Levin and doctor Yan Ying. Now an ordinary couple

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:23.080
<v Speaker 2>from here in Melbourne with a nineteen month old baby boy.

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Except the plot twist is that John is ninety three

0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 2>years old and hasn't you baby?

0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:34.519
<v Speaker 3>Good morning John, Good morning yan Ying. Right now, this

0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:35.240
<v Speaker 3>is a story.

0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 4>Congratulations, Thank you.

0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 3>How much does say as a.

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:42.640
<v Speaker 5>New mums busy?

0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:44.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, busy, I bet.

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Now this is a story about falling in love later

0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:52.240
<v Speaker 2>in life, I suppose. But also John, about your quest

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.560
<v Speaker 2>because it is unusual to have a brand new baby,

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:57.400
<v Speaker 2>I suppose in your nineties.

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.240
<v Speaker 3>But you're also on a mission to be around for

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:01.080
<v Speaker 3>as long as possible.

0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:04.120
<v Speaker 2>You're all about longevity and living a long, healthy life,

0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 2>and you want to be around for when your son

0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.080
<v Speaker 2>turns twenty one, hopefully.

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 1>So what is it?

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 3>First of all, tell us about how you two met.

0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.479
<v Speaker 6>Well, we met because my wife died. I was married

0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:21.040
<v Speaker 6>for fifty seven years and I got very lonely. I

0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:24.360
<v Speaker 6>didn't know what I should do. I thought, maybe I'll

0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:28.200
<v Speaker 6>learn a language. So I looked up all the For

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 6>some reason, I don't know why now, I picked Chinese.

0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 3>Well, that's one of the hardest languages in the world.

0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:34.800
<v Speaker 5>Time I looked up.

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.319
<v Speaker 6>All the schools that I could go to, and there

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:40.400
<v Speaker 6>were three in Melbourne. So I picked one, and I

0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:45.160
<v Speaker 6>picked a Monday afternoon and I went to that school

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 6>and I went up there and then this young lady

0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 6>came out and said, I'm Yan Yi, I'm your teacher,

0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:59.760
<v Speaker 6>and so we went and started to teach me. And

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:03.960
<v Speaker 6>I said to her, well, look, isn't it another place

0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 6>we can go where you don't have to pay these people?

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 6>And she said, yes, you can come to my office

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:13.680
<v Speaker 6>at Munish University. So I went to the office there

0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:15.919
<v Speaker 6>and I had a couple lessons, and then she told

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.440
<v Speaker 6>me that I was the worst pupil she ever had.

0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.079
<v Speaker 7>Well, can I have a bit of a disclaim.

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 3>Yes, absolutely.

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.960
<v Speaker 7>I was doing my PhD full time then and only

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 7>a children Chinese, and I have to say ten years

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 7>ago I wasn't probably the best Chinese teacher, and I

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:37.399
<v Speaker 7>hope I can do a little bit of a better

0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:42.320
<v Speaker 7>job now and teaching my song anyway. Yeah, the Chinese

0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:43.360
<v Speaker 7>wasn't really for him.

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:46.079
<v Speaker 8>So I was a teacher student situation, and now it's

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 8>grown into a love story.

0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Yes. How long have you gonna have been together?

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:50.960
<v Speaker 7>Eleven years?

0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Wow?

0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, and you've got a little baby now, John, you

0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:58.080
<v Speaker 2>speak quite openly about wanting to be around for as

0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:00.640
<v Speaker 2>long as possible, like any new parents.

0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 3>And you specializing longevity is that right?

0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 5>Well? Anti aging medicine.

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 3>What is the key to a long healthy life?

0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:10.480
<v Speaker 5>What is the key?

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 6>Well, for many, many keys, I mean you know you

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.079
<v Speaker 6>can't exist that. The one is to try to keep

0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:19.840
<v Speaker 6>your heart healthy. Yes, because six out of every ten

0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:22.720
<v Speaker 6>people get heart disease, if you know that, and three

0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 6>or four out of ten die from it.

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 6>When patients come to me, that's the first thing I

0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:29.359
<v Speaker 6>concentrate to try to keep their heart.

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 1>See, I reckon John's We're going to be very different

0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 1>to yours, quint.

0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:35.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I dare say I'm doing the wrong things. Yeah,

0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.240
<v Speaker 4>doctor John, What is it or what was it like

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 4>holding that baby boy in your arms?

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 5>It was unbelievable. I mean, you know, but by the way,

0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:47.720
<v Speaker 5>I have ten grandchildren.

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Wow, and.

0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 5>I shouldn't tell one of my grandchildrens quite famous.

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh who's the celebrity in the family.

0:03:56.440 --> 0:04:00.520
<v Speaker 6>She's a star and Channel ten. She is that eleven,

0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:08.720
<v Speaker 6>she's a judge. You proud grandfather, she's my oldest child.

0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Can I ask what was the family reaction like when

0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:13.720
<v Speaker 1>you said you were going to have a baby.

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:20.400
<v Speaker 5>I think the reaction was what I said, Yeah right.

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:24.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's an amazing story.

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:28.159
<v Speaker 2>But it's also so wonderful to know people can find

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:30.480
<v Speaker 2>love and happiness again, because I think there would be

0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 2>many people who sadly.

0:04:32.120 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Have walked in similar shoes to you, doctor John and

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.160
<v Speaker 3>thought that that was it. But you really can fall

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 3>in love and be happy at any age, can't you.

0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:41.920
<v Speaker 5>So I didn't quite hear what you said.

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:44.960
<v Speaker 1>She was just saying you can fall in love at

0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:45.640
<v Speaker 1>any age.

0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely.

0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, sure, And so what are the things that you're

0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 2>going to do to be around until because if you

0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 2>want to live in a long, healthy life, you want

0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:59.200
<v Speaker 2>to how long?

0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:01.200
<v Speaker 3>How long do you think you can extend your life?

0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 3>And what are the things you're doing for long?

0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm pretty sure you one hundred and five.

0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 1>What you look? You look right?

0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:14.440
<v Speaker 4>What what's he like as a dad?

0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:20.360
<v Speaker 7>Well, he's a very old fashioned dad. It doesn't change

0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:26.239
<v Speaker 7>the which I expect it not that I will trust

0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 7>our baby with him.

0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Does it?

0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:31.520
<v Speaker 4>Does it warm your heart to see him with your

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 4>little boy? What's the emotion like for you? Yeah?

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:37.760
<v Speaker 7>Absolutely. I still remember when we were in the hospital

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:40.880
<v Speaker 7>and he was sitting by the window holding the little

0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.839
<v Speaker 7>baby and with the sun behind him. That's the most

0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:44.840
<v Speaker 7>beautiful scene.

0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:47.279
<v Speaker 4>That's so nice.

0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:51.800
<v Speaker 3>I love it. Well, guys, we wish you all the best.

0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm so intrigued. I'm fascinated. Does having a child this

0:05:58.640 --> 0:05:59.839
<v Speaker 4>lad in life keep you young?

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 1>You think?

0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:01.479
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely?

0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:03.720
<v Speaker 4>Would you do it again?

0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:04.840
<v Speaker 5>That?

0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:05.880
<v Speaker 4>Would you do it again?

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 5>Would you have what we're thinking of another one?

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:09.760
<v Speaker 6>Wow?

0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:13.240
<v Speaker 5>I would like to have a little girl. John.

0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:14.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm tired.

0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 3>You're saying it's keeping you young. Jason reckons his children

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:20.479
<v Speaker 3>of age.

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I think John looks better than me, to be honest, I.

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:24.040
<v Speaker 3>Couldn't agree more.

0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 4>Actually, is this an exclusive? Because I wasn't reading about that.

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 4>We're actually thinking about extending the family. We're going again.

0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:38.040
<v Speaker 5>Probably, I was so good.

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.480
<v Speaker 8>I was reading a lot of the comments online and

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 8>you know, and no doubt you would have experienced some

0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 8>negativity from the public regarding your story. Good And we

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 8>were just having a chat this morning in the meeting.

0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:53.520
<v Speaker 8>We're just saying for us, it's such a nice, warm

0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 8>love story, that's what it's celebrating.

<v Speaker 4>their car right now who might sort of is their eyebrows.

0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 7>Well, if our story can put a smile on people's face,

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:09.960

<v Speaker 8>It is controversial having having a child in that age

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:24.560
<v Speaker 8>can be controversial, but I can tell you now, I've

0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:27.160
