<v Speaker 1>live on the free iHeart app.

0:00:17.179 --> 0:00:22.419
<v Speaker 2>Laura pick to this. You could freeze your body after death,

0:00:23.219 --> 0:00:26.819
<v Speaker 2>sleep frozen for two hundred years, and then wake up

0:00:26.859 --> 0:00:28.739
<v Speaker 2>in the future. Would you do it?

0:00:29.379 --> 0:00:32.379
<v Speaker 1>No, really, I really think about that. I have thought

0:00:32.379 --> 0:00:34.739
<v Speaker 1>about it. We talked about it earlier. The answer is no,

0:00:35.139 --> 0:00:39.019
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to firstly cryogenically frozen me doesn't want

0:00:39.019 --> 0:00:40.539
<v Speaker 1>to come back in two hundred years when all my

0:00:40.539 --> 0:00:41.539
<v Speaker 1>friends and family are dead.

0:00:41.539 --> 0:00:44.219
<v Speaker 2>What it's no, Okay, listen to this. There's this German

0:00:44.299 --> 0:00:47.379
<v Speaker 2>startup called Tomorrow Bio, and I just got like down

0:00:47.499 --> 0:00:50.739
<v Speaker 2>this rabbit hole of this place. They're charging people two

0:00:50.899 --> 0:00:56.579
<v Speaker 2>hundred thousand dollars to cryogenically freeze yourself for this exact purpose,

0:00:56.619 --> 0:01:00.299
<v Speaker 2>so that in two hundred years, when the technology is available,

0:01:00.379 --> 0:01:02.979
<v Speaker 2>you can defrost and be brought back to the future

0:01:03.139 --> 0:01:08.298
<v Speaker 2>with the technology to like help you revive whatever illness

0:01:08.339 --> 0:01:09.938
<v Speaker 2>might have killed you. So like maybe if it was

0:01:09.938 --> 0:01:12.819
<v Speaker 2>a cancer or something like that, you can literally pay

0:01:12.859 --> 0:01:14.139
<v Speaker 2>now to.

0:01:14.018 --> 0:01:15.538
<v Speaker 1>Be freezing, now live later.

0:01:15.699 --> 0:01:19.419
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, by now die now live later, that should be

0:01:19.419 --> 0:01:19.819
<v Speaker 2>their model.

0:01:19.938 --> 0:01:21.658
<v Speaker 1>I think that this is a scam. I think it

0:01:21.738 --> 0:01:23.699
<v Speaker 1>is a scam, and a very lucrative one. They're making

0:01:23.738 --> 0:01:24.739
<v Speaker 1>two hundred thousand.

0:01:24.458 --> 0:01:26.659
<v Speaker 2>Dollars a pop. Okay, hear me out. This puts the

0:01:26.699 --> 0:01:30.219
<v Speaker 2>funnier bit. It's not that it's funny. If you don't

0:01:30.219 --> 0:01:32.979
<v Speaker 2>have two hundred thousand dollars to freeze your whole body,

0:01:33.339 --> 0:01:36.658
<v Speaker 2>you can just pay eighty thousand and just do your brain.

0:01:36.979 --> 0:01:39.539
<v Speaker 2>But like, where's your brain coming back? How what's what

0:01:39.539 --> 0:01:41.059
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna wake up and just be a little brain.

0:01:41.139 --> 0:01:41.938
<v Speaker 2>They can't do anything.

0:01:41.979 --> 0:01:43.859
<v Speaker 1>Hear me as to why I think this is a scam.

0:01:43.938 --> 0:01:45.778
<v Speaker 1>This just to me reeks of Do you guys remember

0:01:45.779 --> 0:01:48.499
<v Speaker 1>the Theronos story the woman who like brought out it

0:01:48.539 --> 0:01:50.258
<v Speaker 1>was like a blood test they could detect cancer. She's

0:01:50.299 --> 0:01:52.539
<v Speaker 1>ended up in with homes. She's a scam, she's in

0:01:52.699 --> 0:01:54.539
<v Speaker 1>prison for it. And it was like a company was

0:01:54.539 --> 0:01:57.739
<v Speaker 1>worth billions of dollars. It's one thing to say we're

0:01:57.779 --> 0:02:00.538
<v Speaker 1>going to cryogenically freeze you, as that in two hundred years,

0:02:00.579 --> 0:02:02.699
<v Speaker 1>when the technology is there, we can bring you back

0:02:02.739 --> 0:02:05.859
<v Speaker 1>to life. Is the same company developing the technology? Like,

0:02:05.899 --> 0:02:07.819
<v Speaker 1>how do we know the technology has never been there?

0:02:07.899 --> 0:02:10.659
<v Speaker 1>It's still not there one hundred years ago or fifty

0:02:10.739 --> 0:02:12.899
<v Speaker 1>years ago, whatever it was, everyone was saying, oh, we'll

0:02:12.899 --> 0:02:14.459
<v Speaker 1>be there in two hundred. We're never going to be there.

0:02:14.579 --> 0:02:16.819
<v Speaker 2>I saw of get it, though, because what they're saying

0:02:16.939 --> 0:02:18.978
<v Speaker 2>is they're not saying, I guess if you're going to die,

0:02:19.019 --> 0:02:20.898
<v Speaker 2>you have two options. Right, you die and you never

0:02:20.899 --> 0:02:24.578
<v Speaker 2>get brought back, or you die freeze yourself and potentially

0:02:24.619 --> 0:02:27.099
<v Speaker 2>have an option of coming back. So I guess there

0:02:27.138 --> 0:02:28.939
<v Speaker 2>are the people that are like, hey, I get it's

0:02:28.978 --> 0:02:31.019
<v Speaker 2>not a guarantee, but cool, maybe I can come back

0:02:31.019 --> 0:02:31.899
<v Speaker 2>in two hundred years.

0:02:31.899 --> 0:02:33.539
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it makes more sense if you were like in

0:02:33.579 --> 0:02:36.258
<v Speaker 1>your thirties or your twenties, or your thirties or your forties, right,

0:02:36.258 --> 0:02:38.139
<v Speaker 1>because you didn't get to live your full life like

0:02:38.299 --> 0:02:41.339
<v Speaker 1>you if you were, if there was a possibility that

0:02:41.339 --> 0:02:44.259
<v Speaker 1>you're going to die young, you might then explore it.

0:02:44.299 --> 0:02:46.659
<v Speaker 1>But if you're eighty, like, who wants to come back

0:02:46.698 --> 0:02:48.619
<v Speaker 1>as an eighty year old? Be like, Oh, I've have

0:02:48.698 --> 0:02:49.859
<v Speaker 1>boyars left in my life.

0:02:49.939 --> 0:02:50.339
<v Speaker 3>Let's go.

0:02:50.819 --> 0:02:55.099
<v Speaker 2>So far, the company has preserved six people and five pets,

0:02:55.459 --> 0:03:00.698
<v Speaker 2>and there are and there are six hundred and fifty

0:03:00.899 --> 0:03:03.939
<v Speaker 2>people who have already paid, Like, because you obviously pay

0:03:04.019 --> 0:03:06.538
<v Speaker 2>before you die. The rules are, you don't get put

0:03:06.579 --> 0:03:08.779
<v Speaker 2>to sleep. It's not like an euthanasia thing. You have

0:03:08.859 --> 0:03:11.099
<v Speaker 2>to pre book it, wait till you die, and then

0:03:11.099 --> 0:03:13.779
<v Speaker 2>it has to be done really quickly after you pass away.

0:03:13.819 --> 0:03:15.779
<v Speaker 2>But six hundred and fifty people have paid and are

0:03:15.819 --> 0:03:16.619
<v Speaker 2>waiting their turn.

0:03:16.859 --> 0:03:18.619
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if that's like a family because, like, you

0:03:18.619 --> 0:03:20.298
<v Speaker 1>don't want to do on your own. If you're freezing

0:03:20.339 --> 0:03:22.419
<v Speaker 1>your pets, it's freezing someone to come back together. We'll

0:03:22.459 --> 0:03:24.258
<v Speaker 1>do the pick up in two hundred years time to

0:03:24.339 --> 0:03:26.898
<v Speaker 1>produce grace. You're saying, you've got some stats graces.

0:03:26.619 --> 0:03:27.099
<v Speaker 3>On the case.

0:03:27.219 --> 0:03:27.459
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:03:27.619 --> 0:03:31.259
<v Speaker 3>So there was a big thing about cryogenically frozen people

0:03:31.379 --> 0:03:34.619
<v Speaker 3>back in the sixties, but every single person that was

0:03:34.698 --> 0:03:38.099
<v Speaker 3>frozen back then, none of them are still frozen because

0:03:38.539 --> 0:03:40.659
<v Speaker 3>you have to rely on their family members to keep

0:03:40.819 --> 0:03:42.459
<v Speaker 3>paying to keep them cold.

0:03:42.459 --> 0:03:44.339
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you'd be devl to keep them cold.

0:03:44.619 --> 0:03:46.179
<v Speaker 1>So what it was like forty years and they're like,

0:03:46.179 --> 0:03:46.619
<v Speaker 1>we're done.

0:03:46.739 --> 0:03:49.939
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's to one person that was cryogenically frozen before

0:03:50.019 --> 0:03:51.499
<v Speaker 3>nineteen seventy three that's still frozen.

0:03:51.619 --> 0:03:53.379
<v Speaker 2>Do you imagine growing up and you're a kid and

0:03:53.419 --> 0:03:55.659
<v Speaker 2>it's like, hey, these are like your bills. You've got

0:03:55.699 --> 0:03:57.219
<v Speaker 2>to pay. And also this is to keep your great

0:03:57.219 --> 0:04:00.019
<v Speaker 2>great great grandpa frozen in case he comes back to life,

0:04:00.019 --> 0:04:01.819
<v Speaker 2>like you going to be like stuff that, which is.

0:04:01.779 --> 0:04:04.539
<v Speaker 1>Why I am convinced it's a scam. I am so

0:04:04.619 --> 0:04:07.059
<v Speaker 1>convinced that these companies know that people are not going

0:04:07.139 --> 0:04:10.059
<v Speaker 1>to be able to up the payments for two hundred

0:04:10.139 --> 0:04:12.659
<v Speaker 1>years because no one's gonna do that. So they're like, well,

0:04:12.819 --> 0:04:14.379
<v Speaker 1>there's probably only gonna be one or two people who

0:04:14.379 --> 0:04:16.459
<v Speaker 1>can afford it, and therefore we're not gonna be who's

0:04:16.459 --> 0:04:19.259
<v Speaker 1>gonna sue us They're dead Like it's the perfect model.

0:04:19.459 --> 0:04:22.139
<v Speaker 2>I think it's gonna happen. I wish I was around

0:04:22.179 --> 0:04:25.499
<v Speaker 2>two hundred years to see okay. I asked my Instagram

0:04:25.499 --> 0:04:28.699
<v Speaker 2>followers personally because I found this really interesting, but did

0:04:28.699 --> 0:04:33.979
<v Speaker 2>some research. Seventy thousand people saw this. Eight percent of

0:04:34.059 --> 0:04:37.059
<v Speaker 2>people said that they would do it, and ninety two

0:04:37.059 --> 0:04:39.819
<v Speaker 2>percent said no way. But eight percent's pretty big. That's

0:04:39.819 --> 0:04:41.099
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people that are like, yeah, do that.

0:04:41.299 --> 0:04:42.099
<v Speaker 2>I'd stick around.

0:04:42.259 --> 0:04:45.419
<v Speaker 1>I have no interest. I'm just gonna like, do this

0:04:45.499 --> 0:04:47.339
<v Speaker 1>last to the fullest and then I'll be done. I'm

0:04:47.339 --> 0:04:47.819
<v Speaker 1>happy with that.

0:04:48.019 --> 0:04:49.819
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'll track down your great great great great great

0:04:49.899 --> 0:04:50.219
<v Speaker 2>kids
