About this episode

Ben Lamm discusses a breakthrough in artificial egg technology that could help revive extinct species and protect endangered ones.

Ben Lamm from Colossal Biosciences joins Tyrus to reveal a breakthrough that sounds straight out of science fiction — a fully artificial egg system that successfully hatched baby chicks. Ben explains how this technology could one day help bring back extinct animals like the Woolly Mammoth, Dodo, and Dire Wolf, while also helping protect endangered species before they disappear forever. Tyrus and Ben also talk about giant extinct creatures, mysterious ancient discoveries, AI, cloning, conservation, and how science is changing the future faster than most people realize. If you’re fascinated by Jurassic Park-style technology, lost animals, or the future of our planet, this conversation is a must-watch. Learn more about your ad choices.
