In his final interview before passing, 99-year-old Charlie Munger dropped some classic no-nonsense wisdom. On Silicon Valley’s young-blood transfusions and other extreme longevity hacks: “That was crazy.” He reminded us that medicine used to be full of charlatans, and crazy ideas are still far more common than we think....

In 2021, Amanda wrote about her late husband, All Elite Wrestling wrestler Jon Huber, also known as Brodie Lee. On his birthday, we remember his legacy: “I hope that, when people remember Jon, they mention one of the bravest things he ever did: He had unresolved trauma — and he confronted it. I’m not going to go into every detail here, because I think some things are private. But one area that I will detail a bit is how therapy helped Jon finally come to terms with the death of his dad. Jon’s dad was his hero — he meant everything to him. And when he died (in November of ’01, just a handful of months before Jon and I met), Jon was a wreck. It was a devastating loss. But over the years, I think he’d kind of ‘blocked out’ a lot of how that devastation had impacted him. And it was therapy that gave him the strength to start unblocking it. He started to confront the fact that, after his dad’s passing, he found it hard to let new people in. The idea of getting truly close to anyone, and building them into his life, only to experience that level of loss again…. that scared the hell out of Jon. And what scared him even more, he realized, was the idea of ever dying young like his dad did — and abandoning someone else. The idea of anyone who loved him feeling the pain of losing him forever…. that terrified Jon. And he’d thought he never wanted marriage, and never wanted kids, for just that reason. I won’t lie — writing this, there are a lot of complicated emotions attached. The irony of it can be overwhelming to think about: how the exact fear that troubled Jon most, the fear that he finally got over….. it ended up biting him in the ass. It ended up coming true. But I also try not to think about it that way. Instead, I try to think about a man who did the bravest thing imaginable — a thing that ended up saving our relationship, and making our family possible. I try to think about a man who asked me for ONE more chance….. and who promised me that, if I gave it to him, he’d be the best husband, and best father, I ever met. And he was.”
