Dr. Max More is a philosopher, writer, speaker and expert in Cryonics - the process of cryopreserving a body at the time of legal death in the hopes of reviving them in the future. Dr. More is the Ambassador for Alcor Life Extension, a non-profit in Scottsdale, Arizona practicing cryonics. Max received a Doctorate in Philosophy in 1995 from the University of Southern California after completing a degree in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics from Oxford University. Theo talks with Dr. More about what actually happens when someone decides to have their body frozen when they die. They also discuss the future of the world, the debate over “legal” death, and we ask Theo if he would preserve his brain for science.  Learn more about Dr. Max More: https://www.maxmore.com/ Learn more about Alcor: https://www.alcor.org/ ------------------------------------------------ Tour Dates! https://theovon.com/tour New Merch: https://www.theovonstore.com Podcastville mugs and prints available now at https://theovon.pixels.com ------------------------------------------------- Support our Sponsors: Click-Up: Get 15% off with code THEO at https://www.clickup.com  Better Help: Our listeners get 10% off their first month at https://www.BetterHelp.com/THEO Mint Mobile: To get your new wireless plan for just 15 bucks a month, go to https://www.MintMobile.com/THEO Blue Chew: Try BlueChew FREE when you use our promo code THEO at https://bluechew.com  ------------------------------------------------- Music: "Shine" by Bishop Gunn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3A_coTcUek ------------------------------------------------ Submit your funny videos, TikToks, questions and topics you'd like to hear on the podcast to: tpwproducer@gmail.com Hit the Hotline: 985-664-9503 Video Hotline for Theo Upload here: http://www.theovon.com/fan-upload Send mail to: This Past Weekend 1906 Glen Echo Rd PO Box #159359 Nashville, TN 37215 ------------------------------------------------ Find Theo: Website: https://theovon.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/theovon Facebook: https://facebook.com/theovon Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thispastweekend Twitter: https://twitter.com/theovon YouTube: https://youtube.com/theovon Clips Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheoVonClips ------------------------------------------------ Producer: Zach https://www.instagram.com/zachdpowers/ Producer: Colin https://instagram.com/colin_reiner See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
