• Sperm Racing, Virality & The Fertility Crisis | Eric Zhu

  Eric Zhu is the 17-year-old founder of Sperm Racing, the platform turning sperm performance into a competitive sport. He went viral as the high-school kid raising millions from a bathroom cubicle and has since turned taboo biology into one of the most watched experiments on the internet.In this episode, Eric breaks down male fertility, biology-as-sport, viral engineering, and how sperm speed tracks with sleep, diet, fitness and health optimization. We dive into the rise of performance biology, how to weaponize virality, and why the next frontier of human performance might start with the most taboo metric of all.Hosted by Mgoes → https://x.com/m_goes_distance---00:00 - Launching Sperm Racing04:15 - The New Status Game06:30 - Taboo Biology x Fertility Crisis9:55 - Sperm Tied to Sleep, Diet and Fitness17:15 - First Race Hits 450M views18:54 - Hustling VCs from a High-School Bathroom26:00 - The Tech Behind Sperm Racing32:20 - Don’t Die, Natalism, Planetary Issues39:11 - Humanity and Memes in AGI Age---The Accelerate Bio Podcast explores the future of human potential in the age of Artificial Intelligence.

• Backyard Jet Suit to $100M Company | Richard Browning, Gravity Industries

  Humans can fly. Gravity Industries founder Richard Browning, a.k.a. the real-world Iron Man, turned a farmyard experiment into the world’s first jet suit - fusing human instinct, engineering, and jet propulsion to make human flight real.We explore how 'citizen engineers' are outpacing billion-dollar labs, why Western innovation is stagnating while China builds the future, and what it takes to reignite the lost inventor spirit. This is the story of courage, failure, and the return of real invention - told by the man who made humans fly.Hosted by Mgoes → https://x.com/m_goes_distance---0:00 - The Dream of Human Flight5:42 - Engineering The First Jet Suit10:56 - Micro Jet Engines14:13 - Tinkerers Drive The Frontier21:06 - Jetpack In Every Home?25:15 - Jet Suits for The Military28:18 - Human Augmentation vs Unmanned Drones32:50 - Jetpack Racing38:05 - Inspiring To Do The Impossible42:53 - Will China Own The Future?45:50 - How Do We Unlock The Jetsons Era?---The Accelerate Bio Podcast explores the future of human potential in the age of Artificial Intelligence.

• $100 Trillion Future of Biotech: AI, China & Next Industrial Revolution | Jason Kelly, Ginkgo CEO

  The era of human scientists is ending. Ginkgo Bioworks CEO Jason Kelly reveals how AI, robotics, and full lab automation are turning biology into software, and why China may outpace the West in the next biotech revolution.We unpack why synthetic biology failed, how AI can 100,000x innovation, and what happens when biology becomes fully automated: no pipettes, no benches, just data, machines, and code. Jason explains how Ginkgo is redefining biotech by separating bench biology from code biology, automating experiments, and letting AI drive discovery.Hosted by Mgoes → https://x.com/m_goes_distance-—00:00 - Origins of Synthetic Biology10:31 - Why Programming Biology Fails18:23 - Chemicals, Protein, CBD, Leather22:10 - Human Enhancement Tech Is Here28:20 - Full Lab Automation, Robotics, AI36:00 - 100,000x Faster Innovation41:40 - Will AI Replace Scientists?48:52 - Regulations Are Killing Biotech56:03 - Will China Get There First?---The Accelerate Bio Podcast explores the future of human potential in the age of Artificial Intelligence.
