Reporter

This morning on Nova 100’s Jase & Lauren, Jase Hawkins, Lauren Phillips and Clint Stanaway caught up with Australia’s oldest new dad John Levin and his wife Yanying.

The 93-year-old Melbourne doctor spoke candidly about life with their new baby boy, revealing that he and Yanying are even thinking about having another child.

Clint: What was it like holding that baby boy in your arms?

John: Unbelievable. I have 10 grandchildren anyway, and I shouldn’t tell, one of my grandchildren’s quite famous.

Lauren: Oh, who’s the celebrity in the family?

John: She’s a star on Channel 10 …  Sophia Levin. She’s a [Masterchef] judge.. she’s my oldest grandchild!

Lauren: How long do you think you can extend your life? And what are the things you’re doing for longevity?

John: Pretty sure I could go to 105.

Clint: Does having a child this late in life keep you young, do you think?

John: Absolutely.

Clint: Would you do it again?

John: Well we’re thinking of another one. We’d like to have a little girl.

Jase & Lauren can be heard from 6am to 9am on Nova 100 in Melbourne. Listeners can stream the show live or catch up with the daily podcast by downloading the Nova Player.
