SPONTANEOUS RIP TIME! Over the last few days, Conor McGregor, one of the most recognizable names on Earth, has been buzzing about establishing a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve in Ireland to break the country free from the EU chains. Amidst the tweetstorm (which has garnered tens of millions of views), he retweeted a recent podcast by these 2 fine gentlemen, Chris McLaughlin & Alan Bryden. I invited them on to dive deep into their case for why Ireland adopting Bitcoin would be a fantastic idea as a means of bringing its people freedom, more affordable real estate, and lots more. Enjoy the conversation!

Dan Gauerke, a very interesting dude that I met during a whitewater rafting trip in Colombia, joins me today to discuss a topic we touched on a couple months ago with our good friend Peruvian Bull: The GATEWAY TAPES, and the many emerging methods people like you and I can use to expand our consciousness to levels we never thought possible. I strongly encourage everyone listening to go and give these tapes a try, and dive deeper into your own journey of meditation however you see fit. There are incredible doors just waiting to be opened on this path, as more and more people are finding out firsthand!

This was a real treasure of a conversation. Aaron (known as BTC Essex on Nostr/X) is doing excellent work bringing new artists into our crazy little world of Bitcoin, Nostr, and Value-4-Value, including the incredibly-talented UK musician Longy, whose music I sprinkled around the episode for you to enjoy! Check out all the links below to follow & zap Longy, as well as Aaron's project "BTC Essex" and all the important work he's doing. --- We spent most of the first half of the episode chatting about Aaron's story. If you're a musician or other artist looking to dive straight into the Value-4-Value discussion, skip to 1:11:54. Also, there's a mild ringing noise at some parts in the audio. I did my best to edit it out, but you can still hear it occasionally. Sorry about that. --- Check out LONGY, the UK musician and V4V pioneer I featured tracks from throughout this episode! 👇 🎵 Intro - Careful What You Wish For 🎵 1:10:37 - Back From The Abyss 🎵 1:31:56 - Drip Fed Internet Blues 🎵 2:12:33 - Deadly Sins 🎵 Longy's Wavlake with the rest of his music AARON’S LINKS 🔗 → Nostr: npub1c39tdmht8g896hyd3t5z47ksuwtmm77fyqxhmr7rac22d85lwsxqzk2lhm → Twitter/X → Website Support the show BEN’S LINKS 🔗 → Twitter/X → Nostr → YouTube → Instagram → Website SUPPORT THE BEN WEHRMAN PODCAST ❤️ → Share the show with friends, family, and social media → Zap me on Nostr.
