What if you could know the true age of your brain—and start reversing it today?
On this electrifying episode of Thrive LouD with Lou Diamond, recorded live at the Global Passion Project in Southampton, you'll get an insider's look at the breakthrough technologies—and bold thinkers—reshaping our future of health, longevity, and social impact.
Lou sits down with a stellar lineup, including Dr. Ramses Alcaide, CEO of Neurable, who unveils how wearable brain-sensing headphones could soon make brain health measurements as common as step counters. Hear firsthand accounts from athletes concerned about cognitive decline, how new brain tech works for real users, and why investors like Peter Thiel, Chris Sacca, and Merck are betting big on brain longevity.
Then, XPRIZE's Jason Bateman joins to pull back the curtain on the world’s most audacious innovation prizes—from a $101M longevity award to wild carbon-capture ideas like artificial whale poop. Jason argues the biggest problems—like tribalism and the digital divide—need both competitive fire and courageous community to solve.
The conversation turns to a dynamic panel with Dr. Jerome Corsi, Dr. Raj Kumar, Josh Rubin, and FDA legal expert Mike Druckman, who reveal how the pandemic, personal experience, and the hunger for systemic change are fueling a revolution in healthcare, data, and investment.
If you're ready to meet the visionaries and game-changers shaping tomorrow—and learn what YOU can do about it—this is an episode you can't miss.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
