53. Brain-Computer Interface, Music as Medicine, and the Last Frontier of Privacy
We all assume the brain is private. What you think, what you feel, what you almost said but didn't — that has always been yours alone.
That is starting to change.
Jörn Rickert, neuroscientist and co-founder of CoreTec and Neudio, has spent his career building devices that go inside the human skull — and music that rewires it from the outside. In this conversation, he breaks down how brain-computer interface technology is moving from paralysis clinics to your Spotify playlist, why your browsing history already reveals more about you than any brain scan, and what happens when neuroscience and sound become the same thing.
Stay curious. Question everything. And maybe just maybe — the most private place you have is still yours.
52. Why Your Medicine Doesn't Work — The Microbiome Science Nobody Told You About
We all assume medicine works. You take the pill, you get better. But for a huge number of people, it doesn't — and it's not because the medicine is bad.
The answer is living inside you right now.
Jenny Yang, PhD scientist and co-founder of Outpost Bio, is decoding the relationship between your gut microbiome and the compounds that enter your body. In this conversation, she breaks down why two people with the same disease, taking the same pill, can have completely opposite reactions — and why medicine has been missing this piece of the puzzle for decades.
Stay curious. Question everything. And maybe start treating your gut like the sophisticated ecosystem it is.

47. Grant Romundt: How Ocean Builders is Creating the Future of Floating Cities and Underwater Living
Recording 11 meters underwater surrounded by hundreds of fish wasn't exactly what I planned when I started this podcast. But here I am, sitting in Grant Romundt's revolutionary SeaPod off the coast of Panama, discovering how Ocean Builders is solving humanity's space crisis one floating home at a time.
Grant's vision is simple yet mind-blowing: instead of destroying marine habitats, why not create them? Every SeaPod becomes an artificial reef, turning empty ocean into thriving ecosystems. With smart toilets that work better than most land-based systems, AI brains cooled by liquid, and jet ski elevators that sound straight out of The Jetsons, these aren't just homes - they're glimpses into how we might live when floating cities become as normal as suburbs.
The best part? Grant believes we'll see entire floating cities within 10 years. And after spending time in this underwater room watching fish swim by my window, I'm starting to think the ocean might just be humanity's next frontier.
46. How XR Technology Creates Empathy for Nature with Ulrico Grech-Cumbo

We explore how XR might replace zoos, why virtual nature creates real physical responses, and whether digital experiences can solve our disconnection from the natural world.
From filming lions in 360° to building "zoos of the future," this challenges everything about conservation.
Is this the future of saving our planet, or just fancy nature documentaries that keep us indoors?
45. Enhanced Humans 2.0: Aron D'Souza on the Future of Sports, Aging, and Human Potential
"Enhanced Games: The Future of Sports Beyond Human Limits"
What if aging was optional? What if a 65-year-old could outrun Usain Bolt?
In this fascinating conversation, Mizter Rad explores the revolutionary concept of the Enhanced Games with founder Dr. Aron D'Souza. Unlike traditional sports that ban performance enhancement, the Enhanced Games celebrates it - creating a platform where athletes and scientists collaborate to push the boundaries of human potential.
But this isn't just about sports. D'Souza shares his vision for "upgrading humans from 1.0 to 2.0," where our biology is no longer our limit. From solving the aging population crisis to creating trillion-dollar industries, the implications extend far beyond athletics.
As we look toward 2073, this episode challenges us to reconsider what it means to be human. Is the natural human body actually the final version, or just the beginning of something much greater?

41. Can We Live Better, Not Just Longer? Feat. Andrea Maier.
Dr. Andrea Maier, founder of Singapore's first evidence-based longevity center (Chi) and a pioneer in personalized preventive medicine, takes us on a fascinating journey through the future of aging. Did you know that each organ in your body has its own biological clock? Your liver could be younger than your heart!
In this episode, we dive deep into how Singapore is revolutionizing healthcare by focusing on prevention rather than just cure. With 25% of their population turning 65+ by 2030, they're not just extending lifespans – they're extending healthspans.
From biological age measurements to evidence-based interventions, Dr. Maier challenges our understanding of aging. But it's not all about high-tech solutions. When I shared stories about my 90-year-old uncle in Colombia who walks everywhere and solves crosswords daily, she explained why these simple lifestyle choices are just as crucial as cutting-edge treatments.
Whether you're interested in optimizing your health or curious about how healthcare might look in 2074, this conversation will change how you think about aging and longevity. It's not about living forever – it's about living better.

From protecting people's savings against inflation to creating opportunities regardless of passports, discover how mixing blockchain with urban planning might just give us a glimpse of city life in 2074.
39. Franco Romero's Vision of a 5D Future and the Split Earth Theory
Franco Romero: "Now the aging piece is pretty simple. Our bodies are a vessel. They're a technology. Okay, no different than a technology that we would view today. Today, when we look at technology, we don't look at this as a technology. It looks organic. Okay, but in the ninth dimensional world where this was created, this is technology. This is an intelligence, sophisticated intelligence."
Mizter Rad: "Hmm."
Franco Romero: "And the fact that we've only used a very small percentage of our DNA coding is a testament to the fact that we haven't even begun to access the capability of this body. But as our frequencies rise, more of those activations will start to occur. And one of those activations is the fact that this body does not need the type of fuel that it currently needs in order to operate. It does not need to lift off of food."
Mizter Rad: "Okay."
Franco Romero: "And we will be able to do that once those other codes are activated. And those codes are going to be activated as we rise in frequency. It's like, I believe it's like three or 5% of our DNA coding is even used right now. The other 95% is considered to be junk DNA. That's ridiculous. Nothing is junk. Nothing is junk in the world of the cosmic realm. There's no mistakes here. Okay."
