In this episode, we get into what made Rambhai the out-of-the-ordinary teacher, how he lives with his family & extended family in one house, what he saw in his childhood and if overuse of technology is worse or better than drug addictions.

In India, many families have drug addictions; young fathers and males die of drug overdoses or alchohol related cancers and diseases. After retiring, Rambhai Patel began an anti-addictions educational program, and rode buses all over India to teach hundreds of thousands of underprivileged children about the dangers of drug use and addictions so that their families have a chance to stay strong and healthy. Both his sons join to translate Rambhai\\u2019s Indian Gujrati, his native tongue; Dhaval Patel is a software engineer at Bloomberg and started a data science Youtube channel with 400K subscribers to teach youth tech after being diagnosed with an incurable autoimmune disease, and Bhavin Patel was a student who was told he won\\u2019t succeed in life, but now has a multi-media marketing company he built that employs some of India\\u2019s best university graduates and has contracts with US companies.
