Kara Swisher has built an impressive career reporting on–and forcefully critiquing–the world of tech, especially the ultra-wealthy power players increasingly calling the shots. Since Steve Job’s death in 2011, she’s noticed a sharp uptick amongst those Silicon Valley elite doing all sorts of “wacky shit” to try and defy aging, extend their lifespan, and possibly even stop death itself.&nbsp;&nbsp;On her new CNN series <a href="https://www.cnn.com/kara-swisher-wants-to-live-forever" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kara Swisher Wants to Live Forever</a>, Kara cracks jokes and tries out some of the buzziest longevity trends, but she takes very seriously the inequality of it all – how these unproven, but potentially ground-breaking treatments remain squarely out of reach for most of us, while proven medical care continues to get more expensive with worse outcomes.&nbsp;&nbsp;Listen to our 2024 interview with Kara at the Tribeca Festival<a href="https://slate.com/podcasts/death-sex-money/2024/06/ara-swisher-and-orna-guralnik-on-interviewing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> here</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;Join us on June 10 for our 2026 Tribeca Festival live event with Peter Dinklage and Erica Schmidt. <a href="https://tribecafilm.com/films/death-sex-money-live-with-guests-peter-dinklage-erica-schmidt-2026" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get your tickets here</a>.&nbsp;Podcast production by Andrew DunnDeath, Sex & Money is now produced by Slate!
