Dax Shepard is willing to donate his brain to science if his children allow it.
Shepard, 50, made the strange admission in Sillon expertWhere the neuroscientist Christopher Nowinski spoke extensively about chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a “progressive” degenerative “brain disease that affects people who have suffered brain shocks and traumatic brain injuries.
“Part of my trick is that I ask everyone … Have you ever considered donating your brain?” The guest said in the recent episode, and then asking the hosts Shepard and Monica Padma the same.
“I would be happy to do it. I really don’t care what happens with my body later,” Shepard replied.
Padman also agreed, adding “[If] My brain could be helpful. Why not?”
Shepard reiterated “I am delighted to donate my brain. Do I have to officially go to a website or something?”
Shepard, who shares the daughters Lincoln, 11, and Delta, 9, with his wife Kristen Bell, then added that he had to make sure his family had no reserve.
“[I have to] Verify that my children have no plans for my brain. Once they sign in it … “
Nowinski then replied that “most people say” let me consult the wife “, and then they never answer.”
However, Shepard joked that his wife would certainly let him pursue the plan. “My wife says: ‘Get this, take out that brain of fucked here,” Shepard said with a smile.
