| 0:21.1 | and tell your friends and family about the podcast. My goal is to help millions learn from the |
| 0:26.5 | world's most interesting people. So let's get in to today's episode. What's going on, guys? |
| 0:31.6 | Today we have a very special episode. You're going to want to sit down and pay a lot of attention. |
| 0:36.0 | This story is not only inspiring, but it's going to make you think much more critically |
| 0:39.4 | about the world, and it's going to teach you so much about the intricacies and the complexities |

| 1:20.5 | is and what their best ideas are. What strikes me about Ephraim is that actually he is investing |
| 1:25.4 | a much more precious resource. He's investing |
| 1:27.5 | his time and his energy. And the ROI on that time and energy investment actually has nothing to do |
| 1:33.0 | with finances. He measures his success in how many lives he can save. This conversation is very special. |
