Description

Welcome to Brave New World, hosted by Evgeny Lebedev, for the London Standard. We dive deep into the ideas of thought leaders, scientists, and intellectuals who are shaping the future and transforming our culture.


Tune in each week for interviews with some of the brightest minds of our time, and explore the realms of longevity, neuroscience, biohacking, and psychedelics.


Join Evgeny as he leads thought-provoking conversations with guests such as Dame Helen Mirren, Wim Hof, Deepak Chopra and Sam Harris – and others who are driving change, thoughtful debate, and challenging our views and preconceptions.


Whether you're curious about the secrets to longer life, the mysteries of sleep, or the future of medical technology, it’s all here in Brave New World.
