So we're talking about just from malaria nights alone, saving dozens of people's lives.

thousands of children who've gotten deworming treatments as a result of this, hundreds of thousands of dollars in direct cash transfers that people in poor countries can use to put a better roof over their head or start a business and things like that.

And it started with that little experiment and really started with kind of the inspiration from Peter Singer, the philosopher, whose ideas really matter.

I would not complain if that's not too self-serving.

Yeah, that would be great.

If you want to put money in the matching fund, that would be awesome.

Yeah.

And you can do is like make a tiny donation now, like put in like 10 bucks, try it out, see how it works.

And then when it's holiday time and you're ready to like really do your good deeds for the year, we'll get back in touch with you and we'll have some good offers.

Please.

And also kind of answered questions like, well, what happens to people when they die?

And sometimes I hear voices.

Is that people talking to me from some other realm?
