Do you want to live forever? will investigate whether we can really turn back our biological clock, and analyze the secrets to living longer according to Nine’s press release.
Tracy stepped away from ACA in 2022, with former Today co-host Ally Langdon filling her seat from January last year.
Langdon revealed she received priceless advice from Grimshaw, who ran the show for 17 years.
“I spoke to Trace a lot in the run-up to the presenter announcement and I remember a conversation we had as she drove up for her final show,” she told The Herald Sun.

“She said, ‘Just be yourself, Ally, and follow what you want to follow.’
Allison went on to say that Tracy advised her to know her audience.
“She told me to listen to the ACA audience; they are smart, they know what they are talking about, but find your own way and are authentic,” Allison explains.
Channel Nine confirmed in December 2022 that Ally would be leaving her co-hosting role on Today to replace the departing Grimshaw.
60 Minutes reporter Sarah Abo stepped in to fill Ally’s spot alongside Karl Stefanovic as the new co-host of Today.
Ally denied rumors of a ‘professional rivalry’ between herself and former colleague Stefanovic, describing him as a ‘brother’ to her.
She has since settled into her role at ACA, with viewers praising her compassionate approach to difficult stories.
