  • EP.26 - Longevity: Fitness And Nutrition Tips For A Longer Life
    2024/04/22

    As an 80's kid, Saturday afternoons meant only one thing… watching Knight Rider. That show was the bomb back in the day, with David Hasselhoff cruising around in that sleek, black Trans Am. For 60 glorious minutes each week, they made us believe that anything was possible. That a talking car could save the day and that one man could make a difference in the world. As a kid, I wanted to be Michael Knight; he was like James Bond but with a leather jacket and a mullet. And seriously, who wouldn't want a talking car? Fast forward to today, and while we've got self-driving cars, the closest thing we have to KITT is Siri, and let's face it, she's an idiot. William Daniels, the voice behind KITT, just celebrated his 97th birthday last month. And that got me thinking... So, this week, we're pulling back the curtain on longevity. Stick around as we uncover 10 tips for a longer, healthier life.
