Produced by <strong>EverWonder Studio<\/strong>, the six-episode series follows legendary journalist Kara Swisher as she embarks on a deeply personal and sharply reported journey into the rapidly expanding world of longevity science and humanity\u2019s enduring quest to cheat death. The series will air weekly on Saturdays at 9pm ET\/PT on CNN. Episodes will be available to stream the next day for subscribers of\u00a0CNN\u2019s streaming offering.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen my father died of an aneurysm at 34 years old, I was only five years old. Since then, I\u2019ve thought a lot about death and how it impacts us all, for better or worse,\u201d said Swisher. \u00a0\u201cWhen I started covering Silicon Valley in the early 1990s, I spent a lot of time reporting on how innovation and tech leaders could help some people while hurting others. As titans who have profoundly impacted our world, they\u2019ve become interested in applying their vast fortunes and often god-like know-how to longevity, dreaming they might even be able to hack death itself. Can they? Is that a good thing? What is actual breakthrough science and what is the same old snake oil? Will that effort help all of humanity or just themselves? My goal is the same as it always has been: To find out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Inspired by her own experiences confronting mortality, Swisher investigates the promises and pitfalls of the booming longevity industry. Across the series, Swisher examines everything from anti-aging treatments and biotech breakthroughs to the role of artificial intelligence, the influence of Silicon Valley, and the growing cultural obsession with extending life. Along the way, she explores how wealth, access to healthcare, and social connection shape who benefits from these innovations, and whether humanity\u2019s pursuit of longer lives is changing how we think about death&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com\/2026\/03\/12\/cnn-original-series-kara-swisher-wants-to-live-forever-premieres-saturday-april-11-at-9pm-et-pt\/amp\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CNN Original Series \u201cKara Swisher Wants to Live Forever\u201d Premieres Saturday, April 11 at 9pm&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-222939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222939"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=222939"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222939\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=222939"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=222939"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=222939"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
