Expert: Ben Lamm - Bringing the Woolly Mammoth back from extinction

Season 7, Ep. 104

This episode, Bryce and Ren are joined by Ben Lamm - the founder and CEO of Colossal Biosciences and a leader of the de-extinction movement. Some people spend their whole lives trying to build a successful company in one field, but Ben has managed to build successful companies in multiple fields - from education to defence. He joins the guys to talk about what he's learned about entrepreneurship and business, why de-extintion is important, and he also answers Bryce's very important Would You Rather: Go into the past and meet your ancestors or go into the future and meet your great-great-grandchildren?


Ben will be speaking at SXSW Sydney, between 15th and 22th of October.
