0:00.0	What's going on friends welcome to another episode of the Genius Life I'm your host Max
0:04.2	Lugavira filmmaker health and science journalist in the author of the New York Times best-selling
0:08.4	book Genius Foods. In this episode of the show I'm super excited to introduce you to my friend
0:12.8	Sean Stevenson. Sean is the host of the top rated health podcast the model health show which I
0:17.8	had the pleasure to be on just a few months ago. He's also the author of the wonderful book
