Kristen Stewart's back in the press cycle and the whole internet's talking about Twilight again — so we're doing a brutally honest review of New Moon, the moodiest, mopiest chapter of the saga. We rewatched as adults and it hits very differently.We get into the forest break-up that scarred a generation, Bella's months-long depression spiral (and those phantom Edward hallucinations), and the case that Jacob was right all along — and hotter. Plus the glow-up that saved Taylor Lautner's career, the strange ageing panic underneath it all, and that chaotic dash to Italy.Emotional, unhinged, excellent. And if you love this episode let us know, because we might do Eclipse next.Loved today's episode?

Can movement extend healthspan? How can we age well? Can we remain strong, capable, and independent throughout later life? Darryl Edwards is an internationally renowned speaker, movement coach, author, and founder of the Primal Play Method®. His evidence-based approach combines exercise physiology, evolutionary biology, cognitive neuroscience, and play psychology to make movement enjoyable, effective, and sustainable. In this episode, we explore the science of functional ageing and the practical strategies that help people maintain strength, mobility, balance, and independence across the lifespan. We discuss: • Can movement extend healthspan? • Functional ageing, why preserving strength, mobility, balance, and independence matters as much as longevity. • How to build physical resilience and reduce the risk of falls, frailty, and age-related muscle loss. • The power of “playspan”, staying physically capable of playing with children, grandchildren, and continuing to enjoy an active life. • Movement as medicine, including insights from Darryl's work with people living with cancer, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease, and how playful movement can improve adherence and quality of life.

Australia has one of the world's fastest-moving electricity systems. It leads the world in rooftop solar, has deployed grid-scale batteries at extraordinary speed, and is now starting to replace its ageing coal fleet with cleaner sources of energy. But as renewable costs rise and electricity demand grows, can the transition remain affordable while maintaining a reliable power system? This week on Cleaning Up, Michael Liebreich is joined by Paul Simshauser, CEO of Iberdrola Australia, and one of Australia's leading energy economists. Drawing on decades of experience across electricity markets, networks and policy, Paul explains what makes Australia's power system unique, and what the rest of the world can learn from it. They discuss why rooftop solar has become so successful in Australia, how batteries are transforming electricity markets, and how the country's energy-only market encourages investment. They also explore the economics of replacing ageing coal plants, the costs of new renewable generation, the role of electricity pricing and demand tariffs, and what will be needed to build a resilient, affordable power system as Australia moves towards net zero. Topics discussed in this episode: The rooftop solar revolution How batteries are reshaping the grid Why solar is cheaper in Australia than elsewhere The challenges of retiring coal Whether renewables can stay affordable Building a resilient power system Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle. The members are Actis, Alcazar Energy, Arup, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, Cygnum Capital, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, Schneider Electric, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

Hello EICucumbers, we have another gem from the archive. This is the accompanying episode to our double beauty special from 2024.Has much changed in two years? It feels like the pursuit of youth has only become more ubiquitous since then, but rather than replacing thinness, that old chestnut has also come back to haunt us all. Can you believe the impact of GLP-1s is just two years? It's quite something...We'd love to hear your thoughts on the themes that still ring true and the ones that have already evolved since this first came out. We're very naughty and still check DMs and Spotify comments despite being OOO, so please do keep messaging in

BUFFALO, NY — August 6, 2026 — A new #research perspective was #published in Volume 18 of Aging on July 24, 2026, titled “A brief history of the hyperfunction theory of aging and future directions.” The article was written by João Pedro de Magalhães from the Genomics of Ageing and Rejuvenation Lab, Department of Inflammation and Ageing, College of Medicine and Health, University of Birmingham, United Kingdom. Rather than presenting new experimental findings, the perspective examines the historical development of the hyperfunction theory of aging, reviews evidence supporting programmatic mechanisms of aging, and discusses future directions for understanding why organisms age and how aging might eventually be modified. For decades, most aging research has been dominated by the idea that aging results primarily from the gradual accumulation of molecular damage, including DNA damage, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and protein deterioration. In contrast, the hyperfunction theory proposes that aging is driven largely by developmental and growth programs that continue operating beyond their beneficial period. Rather than being intentionally programmed, aging is viewed as a consequence of biological pathways that promote growth and reproduction early in life but become harmful when they continue later in adulthood. The perspective traces the historical roots of these ideas from early theories proposed in the nineteenth century through Clive McCay's pioneering caloric restriction experiments and George Williams' concept of antagonistic pleiotropy. Particular attention is given to the contributions of the late Mikhail Blagosklonny, whose hyperfunction theory proposed that aging results from “quasi-programs”—developmental processes that fail to switch off after their normal biological role has ended. The author argues that this framework provides a mechanistic explanation linking evolutionary theory with many biological features of aging.

Many people assume becoming breathless is simply part of getting older - but it could be a sign of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), a progressive lung condition that is often diagnosed too late. Michelle Martin speaks with Dr Jim Teo, Respiratory Physician at O2 Healthcare Group, about why COPD is frequently mistaken for normal ageing, the warning signs people shouldn't ignore, and how delayed diagnosis can dramatically reduce lung function. Dr Teo shares the story of a 75-year-old patient whose lung capacity fell to just 30%, explains how pulmonary rehabilitation can improve quality of life. Listeners share their pressing questions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ask any young Singaporean today what they're doing to stay healthy, and you'll probably hear about strength training, wearable trackers or the latest wellness trend. Ask their parents or grandparents about that nagging back pain or aching knees, and you might get a very different answer: ‘Old already lah’. It's a phrase we've all heard before. So why do different generations see ageing so differently? And how can younger Singaporeans help their parents age well, before it's too late? As Singapore officially enters super-aged society status this year, conversations about healthy ageing are becoming more urgent than ever. On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr. Ooi Seong Thean, Senior Resident Physician at SATA CommHealth, to find out more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Frailty doesn't usually begin with a dramatic fall - it often starts with subtle changes that are easy to overlook, from slowing down when getting out of a chair to avoiding stairs or walking less. Michelle Martin speaks with Associate Professor Tim Xu from the Singapore Institute of Technology about the early warning signs of frailty, why mobility loss is not an inevitable part of ageing, and what older adults and their families can do to maintain strength, balance and confidence. They also discuss new research into SIT's 12-week "Say No to Frailty" programme, how community rehabilitation is helping seniors remain independent in their own homes, and the habits we should all adopt now to help us live longer and stronger.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Living longer with HIV is one of medicine's greatest success stories, but longevity brings new challenges. By 2040, more than half of all people living with HIV are expected to be over the age of 50, and their health pathways during ageing are very heterogeneous. What does that mean for patients, clinicians, and health systems worldwide? Are our health systems ready for this shift in the HIV ageing demographics? In this episode, Amy Justice and Keri Althoff discuss The Lancet HIV Commission on Ageing and HIV: A global perspective, exploring why the future of HIV care must shift beyond viral suppression toward healthy ageing, integrated care, and what matters most to people living with HIV.

The first person has been treated with a highly anticipated new gene therapy that aims to turn back the clock on ageing cells. The trial is aimed at retinal cells, with the hope that encouraging them to behave as if they were young again could improve sight in the affected patients. If it proves to be safe, it could open the door to a whole raft of therapies based on the emerging field of cellular rejuvenation. To understand more about this cutting edge research, Madeleine Finlay hears from science editor Ian Sample and from Paul Knoepfler, professor of cell biology and human anatomy at the university of California, Davis..

In today's episode, Trisha and I answer two listener questions. The first question is about feeling stuck in cycles of restarting instead of progressing, using food for comfort, and struggling to build consistency even when there is a strong desire to change. The second question is about ageing and the inner critic, and how it can feel difficult to let go of a younger version of yourself.  As always, Trisha McHale shares her psychotherapist view, helping explain why these patterns happen and how to change them for good.

Ageing is part of the natural cycle of life, and there's no such thing as a miracle pill to prevent it. At least not yet ! Nevertheless, it is still possible to delay the effects of this process through a healthy lifestyle and good nutrition. No doubt you've already heard of the benefits of regular physical activity, getting enough sleep and giving up cigarettes or alcohol. But generally speaking, you should prioritise foods that are rich in antioxidants. The term "antioxidants" includes certain vitamins, trace elements, and micronutrients found in large quantities in fruit and vegetables, for example. What foods should we be focusing on ? Where can you find antioxidants in abundance ? What about drinks? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

Looksmaxing is a stupid made-up concept designed to be used to market appearance based scams at young people, mainly males, the way the beauty industry has been doing to women for decades. What it actually consists of is immature, undeveloped young people using plastic surgery, cosmetics, and digital filters to fake the features of a 30-40 something adult: prominent jaws, brows and cheekbones, thin cheeks, narrow eyes etc, basically just crudely ageing themselves up prematurely and ruining their faces for life. Young men are known for doing it but women are doing it just as much. This keen awareness of age and facial structure brings me to our comicing skills… So what's the age of your characters and does that change? Depicting the ages of characters is something that all us comicers do. We pick ages that fit the characters and the stories and then we try and make them appear convincing somewhat. Sometimes our comics even call for us to show them at multiple ages as they age over time or show up in flashbacks or flash forwards. Age mainly shows up in a character's face, but we see it in their body-shapes too: Children have proportionately much bigger heads and slimmer frames generally, with narrower hips and shoulders, adults have normally proportioned heads that are smaller, their bodies are thicker, wider shoulders and hips, while older people tend to stoop and bit more and their shoulders droop. Male figures develop more muscle as they age and lose all of it later. Female figures change proportions markedly with maturity as busts and hips widen and then wastes thicken and busts fall. -This is a simplification and doesn't account for weight gain/loss, exercise, or gender fluidity etc. Faces change much more: eyes start off bigger and narrow over time as there's more flesh around them and cheek bones come forward as they accrete bone. Cheeks start off quite round and full, then thin and hollow out over time. Cheek, jaw, and brow bones became harder, more angular and prominent, on men more than women. Lips are small and full initially, they become wider with the mouth with age, and then thinner. Ears and noses increase in size with age. Teeth start off tiny, become bigger, then appear longer as gums recede, and even fall out. Jowls grow on cheeks and droop at the sides of jaws, fatty eye bags grow, expression lines around eyes, mouth, and forehead become permanent. On men, faces become hairier, foreheads grow as hair recedes, eyebrows and noses become bushier. Hair colour fades, and necks thicken and then thin and wrinkle. Realistic teenagers and young adults are rarely depicted in comics, animation or even live action: People in that weird transition between childhood and adulthood with disproportionately long limbs, huge feet on skinny legs, long noses that don't fit their faces, stick thin limbs, bad patchy facial hair etc. For live action they typically either pick people who look too young or too old for their age to avoid those awkward looks, and unfortunately that gives real young adults an unrealistic impression of how they're "supposed" to appear. So what are your tricks for looksmaxing your characters? haha!

In this episode, we dive into another rare lecture and sit with the timeless wisdom of Ram Dass... With his unmistakable warmth, humor, and honesty, Ram Dass explores what it means to grow older within a culture that often fears aging and avoids the reality of death. Through deeply personal stories and reflections, he invites us to look beyond the changing body, the roles we play, and the identities we have accumulated—and to recognize the part of ourselves that remains present, aware, and untouched by time.This lecture is not simply about aging or dying. It is about learning how to live more authentically while we are here. Ram Dass challenges us to examine the “suit” we have been given in this lifetime without confusing it for who we truly are. He reminds us that beneath our fears, expectations, and attachments exists a deeper awareness rooted in love, compassion, humor, and presence.As we listen together, we consider our own relationship with impermanence, identity, and the inevitable transformations of life. What does it mean to age consciously? How can the awareness of death help us become more fully alive? And what becomes possible when we stop resisting change and simply allow ourselves to be who we are now? This lecture was recorded at the Omega Institute in 1995.www.ramdass.orgRam Dass Bio:Ram Dass was an American spiritual teacher, psychologist, and author who helped introduce Eastern philosophy and meditation to a wide Western audience. Born Richard Alpert, he was a Harvard professor before traveling to India in the 1960s, where he met his guru, Neem Karoli Baba, and received the name Ram Dass, meaning “servant of God.” His landmark book Be Here Now became a cornerstone of the modern spiritual movement, blending Hindu teachings, mindfulness, devotion, and personal transformation. Through his books, lectures, and humanitarian work, Ram Dass spent his life encouraging people to move beyond ego, live in the present moment, and approach life with compassion, humor, and love.

Today we're talking about what causes ageing. Here's an important term you may not have heard before: inflammaging. It describes the link between chronic inflammation in the body and accelerated ageing. While it's relatively unknown, this process is one of the most important concepts to understand if we want to live longer, healthier lives. I'm joined by Professor Janet Lord to break down what inflammaging is, why it's one of the biggest threats to healthy longevity, and the surprisingly simple, science-backed habits we can all use to slow it down.
