Madonna is 68. Her new music reflects something all of us eventually face: mortality.
After decades of projecting strength and invincibility, she’s speaking more openly about aging, loss, and what it means to grow older after losing her brother. It raises a question we all spend too much time avoiding:
Why do we devote so much of our lives to things that ultimately don’t matter?
Politics. Social media outrage. Money. Fame. Status. We chase all of it while the one thing none of us can stop is time.
One of the world’s most famous biohackers spent millions trying to reverse aging—only to develop a serious autoimmune disease. It’s a reminder that no amount of money, technology, or science can make us immortal.
So if we can’t beat death…how should we live?
Today’s episode explores the only issue every human being shares: how to make the most of the time we have before it’s gone.
Also on today’s show:
- Why aren’t Democrats demanding more answers about Mitch McConnell’s health?
- Is it finally time for Graham Platner to step aside?
