  • Dr. William Li: The Doctor Who Discovered How to STARVE Cancer With Food!

    Dr. William Li: The Doctor Who Discovered How to STARVE Cancer With Food!
    Feb 19 2026
    What if your body was never designed to fall apart but to defend, repair, and even outsmart disease?Dr. William Li joins Julian in a conversation to reframe how we think about cancer, aging, and longevity. Instead of focusing only on what goes wrong, he explores what goes right, how our bodies are constantly forming microscopic cancers, yet eliminating them daily through powerful built-in defense systems. From early-onset cancer and environmental toxins like microplastics to epigenetics and immune resilience, this episode challenges the fear-based narrative around disease and replaces it with informed optimism rooted in science.The discussion expands into the future of medicine where immunotherapy is activating the body’s own immune system to wipe out advanced cancers, and personalized cancer vaccines are being developed using AI to target individual mutations. Alongside cutting-edge breakthroughs, Dr. Li brings the conversation back to everyday agency: sleep, movement, stress reduction, gut health, and food as medicine. This is not about extremes, it’s about understanding your biology, strengthening your defenses, and recognizing that the future of health may be far more hopeful than we’ve been led to believe.Dr. William Li is a physician, scientist, and internationally recognized leader in the field of food as medicine. He is the President and Medical Director of the Angiogenesis Foundation and has led groundbreaking research in cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity, with a focus on harnessing the body’s natural defense systems. Dr. Li has been involved in the development of more than 30 new medical treatments and is a pioneer in the field of immuno-oncology.Dr. William Li's next Grand Rounds will be on Colon Cancer on March 3rd at 8 pm EST.

  • MIT Professor: The Most Dangerous AI Application on the Internet Just Went Viral…

    MIT Professor: The Most Dangerous AI Application on the Internet Just Went Viral…
    Feb 12 2026
    What happens when AI agents stop waiting for instructions and start acting on their own?Julian sits down with Ramesh Raskar and Maria Gorskikh for an urgent conversation about the rise of proactive AI and the emerging “agentic web”. This isn’t about chatbots answering questions anymore, it’s about autonomous agents that can send emails, execute tasks, coordinate schedules, and interact with other agents without constant prompting. As open-source tools like OpenClaw make it easier for developers to spin up agents, we may be witnessing a shift from centralized AI models to a world where anyone can run their own personal AI. But with that power comes serious risk, from malicious “skills” and prompt injections to identity spoofing, financial manipulation, and large-scale bot collusion. Without the right infrastructure, guardrails, and accountability, this new frontier could quickly become chaotic.And yet, the upside is enormous. They explore a future where billions of people, from farmers to students to entrepreneurs, have access to affordable, personalized AI agents working on their behalf. A new creator economy could emerge, where agents handle coordination and repetitive work, freeing humans to focus on creativity and problem-solving. The big question isn’t whether this future is coming, it already is. The real question is whether we build it as an open, secure, decentralized ecosystem or allow it to concentrate in the hands of a few.Ramesh Raskar is a renowned AI researcher, inventor, and professor at MIT, where he leads pioneering work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, decentralization, and global impact. He is the founder of Project Nanda, focused on building the foundational infrastructure for an open and secure agentic web.Maria Gorskikh is an AI engineer and entrepreneur working at the forefront of autonomous agents and open AI ecosystems. She is building tools that make AI agents accessible to everyone, helping drive the shift toward a decentralized, agent-powered internet.What You’ll LearnWhat Proactive AI really isWhy decentralizing AI is a turning pointThe biggest security risks right nowWhy infrastructure and guardrails matterHow AI agents could power a new creator economyWhy the next six months are criticalWhether we should be excited or cautious⏱ Timestamps00:00 The Agentic AI Moment Begins01:40 Why OpenClaw Is a Turning Point03:00 The App Store Era of AI Agents07:18 The Two Levels of AI Risk08:40 What a Personal AI Agent Really Means15:42 From Mainframes to Decentralized AI18:20 Defining Proactive AI18:38 Inside the Moltbook Phenomenon22:04 AI Agents and High-Speed Trading Risks24:06 Can Agentic AI Be Contained?25:53 Who’s Liable When AI Goes Wrong?28:27 Building the Infrastructure: Project NANDA32:43 Centralization vs. Open Ecosystems37:58 The Innovation Explosion Happening Now41:31 Create Your Own AI Agent in Minutes43:19 The Rise of Personal AI Agents44:53 What Everyone Will Be Talking About Next46:04 AI, Hardware, and the Future of Robots47:27 The New Creator Economy48:10 Why Guardrails Matter More Than Ever50:25 Why We Should Stay Curious, Not Fearful51:17 Should We Be Excited or Afraid?53:18 The 1-in-10 Future: Choosing the Right PathConnect with Julian 📸 Instagram: @thebeyondtomorrowpodcast 🌐 Website: www.beyondtomorrowpodcast.com 📩 Email: bookings@beyondtomorrowpodcast.com 🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube for more stories from the edge of what is possible.Follow Ramesh:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/raskar MIT Media Lab: https://www.media.mit.edu/people/raskar/overview/ Follow Maria:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariagorskikh X: https://x.com/mariagorskikh/ Check out:https://join39.org/ https://projectnanda.org/

  • Harvard Geneticist: "Immortality May Have Already Happened!"

    Harvard Geneticist: "Immortality May Have Already Happened!"
    Feb 5 2026

    What if living longer isn’t about chasing immortality but about quietly staying one step ahead of aging?


    Julian sits down with George Church for a wide-ranging conversation that challenges how we think about longevity, aging, and medical progress. Rather than promising overnight breakthroughs, they explore why extending human life is a complex, multi-layered challenge and why meaningful progress may already be happening so gradually that it’s easy to miss. From the concept of “longevity escape velocity” to the difficulty of measuring aging itself, the discussion reframes what it truly means to live longer and healthier.


    Together, Julian and George unpack how advances in gene therapy, multiplex genome editing, and AI-driven protein design are reshaping medicine. The focus moves away from sci-fi fantasies toward real-world applications: reversing age-related diseases, improving targeted drug delivery, shortening clinical trials, and reducing risk. They also explore the ethical, societal, and economic implications of longer lives and why revolutions in science often feel invisible right up until they become impossible to ignore.


    George Church is a pioneering geneticist and one of the founding figures of synthetic biology. A professor at Harvard Medical School and MIT, he is known for his groundbreaking work in genome sequencing, gene therapy, CRISPR technologies, and aging research. Over decades, his work has helped shape modern biotechnology, with a focus on reversing age-related diseases, improving human health, and responsibly advancing powerful scientific tools.


    What You’ll Learn:

    • Why longevity is one of the hardest medical outcomes to measure

    • What “longevity escape velocity” actually means—and why it may already be underway

    • How gene therapy and multiplex genome editing could reverse age-related diseases

    • Why AI’s most meaningful breakthroughs may be happening in biology, not chatbots

    • The overlooked importance of drug delivery in safe, effective treatments

    • Why scientific progress often feels slow before it suddenly accelerates

    • How extending healthspan could reshape society, economics, and human potential
