#42 Let's Live to be 100. Do the Blue Zones guide the way?

Send us a textIn this episode, I explore whether the famed Blue Zones offer genuine insights for longevity or if they're more marketing myth than science, while highlighting what the evidence truly shows about living to 100.We begin by considering how many people actually reach 100. Currently, just 0.03% of Americans are centenarians, though this is expected to quadruple by 2054, with women comprising about 78% of that group (Pew Research). Globally, regions like Hong Kong show higher longevity, where 12.8% of females and 4.4% of males are projected to reach 100 (Nature). This brings us to the question: what might we learn from regions like the Blue Zones?I break down how the Blue Zones concept originated, starting with Sardinia where researchers Pes and Poulain mapped centenarians with blue dots, hence the term Blue Zones. Their 2004 study highlighted clusters of longevity (ScienceDirect). Dan Buettner later popularized these findings through his National Geographic article (Blue Zones PDF) and subsequent books, documentaries, and programs. The Blue Zones promote nine lifestyle habits: daily activity, minimal meat and processed foods, moderate red wine intake, calorie reduction, life purpose, stress reduction, spiritual community involvement, prioritizing friendships, and surrounding oneself with like-minded people.While these recommendations align in part with my six pillars of health—exercise, nutrition, mind-body harmony, sleep, exposure to heat/cold, and social relationships—the Blue Zones overlook critical factors like sleep and heat/cold exposure. Their encouragement of moderate alcohol use also contrasts with emerging evidence on alcohol's risks.I examine critiques of Blue Zone science, including flawed birth records that may inflate longevity claims, as seen historically in the U.S. and Greece  (bioRxiv, UCL). Some regions, like Okinawa and Sardinia, no longer display exceptional longevity, possibly due to regression to the mean or changes in lifestyle (PubMed).I also share a rigorous epidemiologic study tracking 80-year-olds to 100, identifying key predictors like non-smoking, low alcohol use, regular exercise, healthy BMI, and dietary diversity (fruits, vegetables, fish, beans, tea). Those with high lifestyle scores had a 60% greater chance of reaching 100 (JAMA).Ultimately, while Blue Zones have helped popularize valuable lifestyle habits, the science behind their claims is mixed. My six pillars remain grounded in evidence that applies to real-world aging.Takeaways: Focus on proven factors—exercise, balanced nutrition, sleep, mind-body practices, social connections, and thoughtful heat/cold exposure—to enhance both lifespan and healthspan. Be cautious about adopting longevity claims without strong evidence. Remember, while genetics play a larger role at extreme ages, your daily choices still profoundly influence your journey toward living long and well.

The 2024 UK General Election was nothing short of exceptional. Labour achieved one of the largest majorities in the history of the House of Commons — yet on the lowest vote share ever recorded for a winning party. Meanwhile, the Conservatives suffered their most devastating defeat in modern political history.In this episode, we unpack the seismic shifts that led to this remarkable result. Why did the vote fragment across so many parties? What drove the electorate's choices in this cycle? And what happened to the underlying dynamics of voting behavior?To explore these questions, we turn to a special issue of The Political Quarterly, our partner journal, which dives into the election's implications and causes in depth.Joining us are three distinguished contributors to that issue:Professor Jane Green – Professor of Political Science and British Politics, University of OxfordProfessor Paula Surridge – Professor of Political Sociology, University of BristolMarta Miori– Research Officer on British Electoral Behaviour, PhD candidate at the University of ManchesterTogether, they provide expert insights into both the immediate drivers of the 2024 result and the longer-term transformations reshaping UK politics.Mentioned in this episode:Miori, M. and Green, J.

This week we're looking at AI and public services. How far could AI tools help to tackle stagnant public sector productivity? What dangers are associated with AI adoption? And how can these dangers be addressed? Artificial intelligence is increasingly being touted as a game-changer across various sectors, including public services. But while AI presents significant opportunities for improving efficiency and effectiveness, concerns about fairness, equity, and past failures in public sector IT transformations loom large. And, of course, the idea of tech moguls like Elon Musk wielding immense influence over our daily lives is unsettling for many. So, what are the real opportunities AI offers for public services? What risks need to be managed? And how well are governments—particularly in the UK—rising to the challenge? In this episode, we dive into these questions with three expert guests who have recently published an article in The Political Quarterly on the subject: Helen Margetts – Professor of Society and the Internet at the Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford, and Director of the Public Policy Programme at The Alan Turing Institute. Previously, she was Director of the School of Public Policy at UCL. Cosmina Dorobantu – Co-director of the Public Policy Programme at The Alan Turing Institute. Jonathan Bright – Head of Public Services and AI Safety at The Alan Turing Institute. Mentioned in this episode: Margetts, H., Dorobantu, C. and Bright, J.

This week we ask: could the University be a wild place? A resilient ecosystem of biodiversity, interdependent relationships, entanglements and emergence? What would it look like if we let go of command, control and management, and allowed the University to grow and thrive in ways that can't be predicted in advance but might exceed our wildest dreams? Join us to celebrate the achievements of Prof. Cathy Elliott. Recorded one day after her inaugural lecture, marking a significant milestone in her distinguished career, Cathy talks about her wild approach to education. Cathy is one of those rare educators who always strives to focus less on grades and more on inspiring her pupils. She has spearheaded un-grading campaigns at UCL, as well as inclusive curriculums and student-led projects on inclusivity, belonging, political philosophy and international relations. She is a co-director of UCL Centre for the Pedagogy of Politics, a co-convenor of the Political Studies Association Teaching and Learning Network, and Vice-Dean Education for UCL Faculty of Social and Historical Sciences. Cathy has made history as our department's first academic on the teaching track to be promoted to Professor. This in itself reflects Cathy's thoughts on education - if we remove some of the boundaries and change some of the criteria , wonderful things might happen (inc. it might be easier for teaching track academics to progress to prof)!

Send us a textAdaptability isn't just a buzzword in the ICT industry—it's the essential quality separating thriving companies from those merely surviving. In this episode, Brad Everett, General Manager of UCL Americas, takes us behind the scenes of their strategic acquisition of Accurate Connections, revealing how two complementary businesses became something greater than the sum of their parts.Brad shares the fascinating journey that began four years before the acquisition was finalized, explaining why UCL looked beyond financial spreadsheets to focus on people, processes, and cultural compatibility first. "What we did was very consistent with our existing go-to-market strategy," he explains, highlighting how the merger expanded their ability to serve customers through domestic manufacturing capabilities that allow for nimbleness in a rapidly changing market.The conversation explores how this strategic partnership opened new revenue streams in wind energy and data centers by combining UCL's splice-on connectivity expertise with Accurate's assembly capabilities. For companies considering similar moves, Brad offers pragmatic advice: "Don't underinvest. Be prepared for the long haul and allocate resources as needed."Perhaps most valuable are Brad's insights for professionals at every career stage. He recommends continuous learning through industry publications, engaging deeply at trade shows like Bixie, and using analytical frameworks like Blue Ocean Strategy and the PL CREST method to identify untapped opportunities. His advice bridges generations—reminding seasoned veterans to remain open to new ideas while encouraging newcomers to learn from industry history.Whether you're a field technician, project manager, or business owner, this episode delivers actionable strategies for evolving alongside our industry's constant changes.

In this episode of UCL Uncovering Politics, we explore one of the most foundational questions in human rights theory: Is there a human right against discrimination?While many of us instinctively view discrimination based on attributes like sexual orientation as inherently wrong, not all human rights theorists agree that this wrong is best understood as a violation of a human right. Some argue that discrimination, though harmful, doesn't necessarily fall under the scope of human rights protections.Joining us to unpack this complex debate is Dr. Saladin Meckled-Garcia, Associate Professor in Human Rights and Political Philosophy at UCL's Department of Political Science. Dr. Meckled-Garcia presents a powerful case for why the right against discrimination should be considered a core human right — and offers a fresh philosophical grounding for why such rights matter.Mentioned in this episode:The Routledge Handbook of the Philosophy of Human Rights, edited by Jesse Tomalty, Kerri Woods.

We discuss the details of moves for Rayan Cherki, Jobe Bellingham, Liam Delap and Matheus Cunha; and also touch on Bruno Fernandes' decision to stay at Manchester United. We finish off with a discussion of some of the deals we think are absolutely guaranteed to be a success, as well as some early thoughts on the links between Arsenal and Benjamin Sesko. It's Ranks!

This week on State of the Union, the guys react to the latest Gold Cup roster updates, as goalkeeper Chris Brady replaces the injured Patrick Schulte. Meanwhile, Fulham announces that Jedi Robinson has undergone knee surgery—though he was already ruled out of the tournament. What do these injuries mean for the USMNT's chances this summer? With the European club season officially in the books, Alexi and Mosse unveil their 2024–25 USMNT Abroad Awards, including picks for Goal of the Season, Assist of the Season, Player of the Season, and more. Over the weekend, Christian Pulisic and Yunus Musah got the start in their final Serie A match of the season and finished 8th overall in the standings. Weston McKennie and Tim Weah helped Juventus secure their Champions League spot with a win over Gianluca Busio and Venezia. Should Busio consider a move this summer? Then, a look ahead to the Champions League Final—PSG vs. Inter Milan this Saturday in Munich—and a breakdown of major Liga MX vs. MLS clashes on the horizon, including the FIFA Club World Cup playoff between LAFC and Club America as well as the CONCACAF Champions Cup Final between Cruz Azul and Vancouver. Will Brian White be able to lead the Whitecaps to victory without Sebastian Berhalter? To close the show, the guys discuss Christian Pulisic's Gold Cup decision, revisit iconic World Cup anthems, and share memories from the legendary 1994 U.S. World Cup squad.
