100 Not Out

Clare Bothman has not only lived through multiple wars (like all centenarians), she has witnessed the introduction of "town" water, electricity, television, telephones, mobile phone, the internet, and so much more. It's quite incredible when you consider how much change can take place in 100 years. But most impressively is the way Clare has handled adversity in her life. Having grieved for her first husband and all three siblings (who all died from cancer), Clare knows a thing or too about living with grace whilst going through tough times. Enjoy this chat with another thriving centenarian in Clare Bothmann. For more info on Clare, you can read this article.

This conversation might get you fired up for all the wrong reasons! How you prepare your food in the kitchen is a major part of the dining experience. Do you let people help you or are you one to fly solo? Is it loud and dramatic and messy and everywhere ... or is calm, measured and contained in your kitchen? Chances are you married or are in love with someone who runs a kitchen completeley differently to you! So this episode is like Love Languages and personalities for the everyday cook!

Captain Christmas, also known as Damo, didn't have the Christmas Day he expected. And after some self-labelled "stinking thinking", Damo shared his experiences and the importance of mental "flexibility" for when things don't go to plan. On episode 510 of 100 Not Out we talk about dealing with the unexpected, both in the short and long term, the difference between acute experiences and chronic conditions, and the way to navigate our days and lives when the unexpected comes our way. It feels prophetic - hopefully not too much - but perhaps this episode needs to be kept in a safe place for when challenge comes our way.

Most of us are pretty good at slowing down over Christmas and the New Year break ... but what about when the year warms up and gets back into a "normal" rhythm? The art of slowing down is by no means finite. Every one of us has ways and strategies to slow down that don't "work" for others. The key is knowing what it takes for you to find calm, chill and relaxation. IKARIA 2023 IS COMING! Our Longevity Experience to Ikaria resumes for the first time since 2019 this JUNE!

On this episode Damo shares his full Christmas menu, from his Christmas Eve drink of choice all the way through to Boxing Day.

Ageing is "in" according to Julia Fox (if you don't know who she is, click here), and anti-ageing is OUT! “Just to let you guys know, aging is fully in—like fully,” Fox said in a recent TikTok video. “And if I see another project that says ‘anti-aging’ on the label, I’m suing. I’m going to sue because I’m gonna age regardless of if I put the fucking $500 serum on my face. And you all fucking know it, and we fucking know it, so let’s stop lying to ourselves. Getting old is fucking hot. It's sexy. It's probably the sexiest time in life, actually, because being pretty and hot in your twenties is the fucking trenches, okay? And I'm not going back there.” So, whether you're 32 (like Fox) or 22 or 42 or 92 ... the idea which Fox promotes so well is to give up on the idea of "anti" ageing. Whilst we can all fall into the ideal of "looking" younger than we really are, trying to "stop" a process that is natural and unstoppable is bordering on the ridiculous (and let's be honest, creates waves of anxiety across the glo

Marcus is not feeling as vital as he once did. He's feeling a bit flabbier, a bit less strong and on this episode discusses with Damo what it takes to get stronger and fitter as we get older. One thing's for sure - it's not as easy as it was when we were younger! On this episode we discuss the mirage of weight, the benefits and drawbacks of data, and knowing when to use data and measurements to your advantage when you want to improve your health.

Magda Szubanski is the host of Magda’a Big National Health Check. It’s a new show out now on the ABC and today on the podcast we talk about the approach the ABC have gone with in having an obese host fronting a series on health. Is it OK? Is it the right message? And what message does it send to viewers? Before you press play, we can tell you that we’re more than happy for Magda Szubanski to be hosting the program. No worries with it whatsoever. But the issue we mainly discuss on this episode is whether her own experiences (and her experiences with health professionals) is a template that could disempower Australians to not take responsibility for their own health. We referenced two articles in this episode – this one from the ABC, and this one from The Guardian. Image courtesy ABC.

Damo loves data. As a chiropractor and naturopath, he’s always been deep into the science and data of health. Marcus on the other hand, is not a data man. He doesn’t have an oura ring and doesn’t know how much REM sleep he gets. On this episode we discuss many things including the desire for data and the positive behavioural change we might make when he have more information available to us. Our view at 100 Not Out is that there is no right or wrong, good or bad when it comes to data. Whatever it takes for you to make better decisions for your health – and life – can only be a good thing.

What do we learn about life and longevity from our family members? This is a deep and meaningful issue that many people don’t ever really ask themselves? If you consider for a moment what you’ve learnt from your parents, grandparents, sibglings and so on, how much of what you have learn’t do you apply to your daily life? Being “just like your Mum” is one thing … but it’s another to really consider what you’ve done or believed as a result. On this episode Marcus and Damo share some big insights from their own upbringings, relationships to their parents and grandparents, and how they use those insights in their daily life. Marcus has just been to the zoo with his extended family, which has provoked this conversation. Enjoy! If you want more, be sure to check out our 2023 Longevity Experience to Ikaria.

An episode of Lance Armstrong’s Forward podcast featuring Tony Robbins is the topic of today’s conversation. This episode was done shortly after the release of Robbins’s latest book, Life Force. We discuss if longevity is as simple as using AI and machinery to create good health – or if the innate intelligence and other factors of life (emotional health, love, community and so on) still have a role to play. This is not taking one side over another – we both love the advances in technology. It’s more a cautionary tale for no one to get too stuck down one path without considering the other. We both have great respect for Tony Robbins and Lance Armstrong – their conversation has really just sparked this one. 500th Episode LIVE Recording – It’s happening! On Wednesday October 19, Damian is presenting Crack Your Stress Code. And the first 20 minutes will be a LIVE recording of 100 Not Out with Damo and Marcus in the room. Want to join us?

In 1926, when Queen Elizabeth was born, life expectancy was 70.6 for a baby girl and the chance of living to 100 was only 3.4 per cent. What happened in reality is that Queen Elizabeth outlived her life expectancy by a GENERATION! Think about that for a moment. In looking at the three major ingredients for longevity that we speak about on 100 Not Out, the Queen had quality longevity in space. She lived with a very strong purpose, was a regular walker and naturally had a strong social life. On this episode we pay our respects to the Queen. IKARIA 2023 is ON!
