Ep 72: Theology & Mythology. Money Messiah Pt 3 with John Vallis

"Money is to Markets, as God / Value is to Consciousness" This marathon of a podcast was too long, so we've split it up into be a multi-part series exploring John's incredible "Money Messiah" article from earlier this year. If you've not yet listened to part 1 and 2, go back and listen to that first for fuller context. Episode #70, and #71. Part Three: A discussion on Mythology & Theology. Myths emerged as narratives as a means to teach us a meta.  Modes of being / operation. Pagan, multi-variant gods as a map for multiple personalities for multiple contexts. Mono-theistic god as the highest truth, the greatest good. We ask a few thorny questions about Christianity and its expansion. We talk about Nietzsche and "The Will to Power" Who ask; "who defines good"? And...Is there a thing such as a “greater good” ? Is God: The thing of highest value? The thing of greatest truth? The highest good? The good is seeing / acting with a more truthful orientation? Hence morality? Hierarchies as an aggregate of values The market as an aggregate of hierarchies All of this, and a whole lot more. Stay tuned for Part 4 and 5 of this mini-series!

Ep 71: Money Messiah Pt 2 with John Vallis

"The highest value becomes our god; the point where comparative values dissolve" This marathon of a podcast was too long, so we've split it up into be a multi-part series exploring John's incredible "Money Messiah" article from earlier this year. If you've not yet listened to part 1, go back and listen to that first for fuller context. It's Episode #70.   Part two begins pulling apart the article itself starting with the big question: What is value & where does it come from? Key words that we use to help understand value are: - Limitation - Sacrifice  - Exclusion - Selection - Focus - Prioritisation  All of course related to the concept of Hierarchies. Another incredibly important idea that Jordan Peterson has popularised. We then dive a little into: - East VS West - And how one is perhaps more liberation oriented, while the other more responsibility centric. We talk about Nirvana and Satori. Reaching a point where comparative values dissolve. Is this state the "Apex state" and the goal we're aiming for, or just a way / direction? We come up with the idea of "the interstitial nature of satori and value". Then we related it to Spiral Dynamics. This was a fascinating section. We talk about "The highest value becomes our god" We compare or relate everything against that primary value. And a whole lot more. Stay tuned for Part 3 of this mini-series!

Ep. 69. One Million Bitcoin Supply Cap w/ Knut Svanholm

This episode was going to be called the The Logan & Thor show. Listen up to hear why. In it, we dive into this idea of “The Sat Squeeze” We discuss why 1 million Bitcoin (or less) will actually be available in the long run. The rest will be lost, frozen or inaccessible. We explore The numerator VS the denominator in Knut’s now-famous “everything divided by 21m” We ask: - Does infinity or 1m come first? - How do we know what’s lost / inaccessible? - Why is bitcoin still $40k? - What happens at Sat - cent parity. We explore the idea of “knowing is owning”. “When knowing is owning, the nature of institutions changes” Knut calls us “The trial generation of Bitcoin” Which is true. We are the very beginning. We discuss the idea of an “Informational element” - Alchemists should’ve been looking to replicate the properties of gold - Non-physical element - Information is not just metaphorically valuable, but literally.

Ep 66. Technology & Tournament Males (Meta Series Pt 2)

Ep 66: Technology & Tournament Males (Meta Series Pt 2) Trav, aka Parabolic Trav, aka Meta Trav joins me again for Part 2 of the Meta Series. In episode 2, we dive into: - Technology - Tournament Males (what they are, how they arose) - The Code of Man - Frame - Chivalry - Polygamy - Hypergamy - Evolution - Religion - Morality - Feminism - Adaptation & Fitness This episode (in fact, this entire Series) is one to be listened to over again. Some highlights: "Evolution is like a difficulty adjustment" "We transcend the environment, and then warp/change it, so we're then un-adapated, and have to adapt once again." "The transition process is a crisis" "The full manifestation of frame is sovereignty." "Morality is a constraint" "Feminine is unconstrained instinctual, and hence immoral" "Polygamy is unstable, and destabilises the era of the tournament male" "Religion comes along with monogamy to correct the instability" Evolutionary Pressure on humans occurs quicker than what we're told, eg: - Modern Hysterics (Homo Hystericus) - Homo Bitcoinicus What it means to be a Tournament male: The tournament male trains to master the exponential technology of the day that can transform effort into disproportionate returns Size difference over the women. They need to be physically imposing, physically dangerous. You need to work out. Be strong. Know how to fight. Be healthy. You need to be smart. You have to combine the cerebral and physical Courage. Must be willing to stomach risk. Must have options, and the attitude that comes with that. Highly Generous. Always sharing with the tribe, and the lower classes. Care about their bloodline. You become a higher status and you want to instantiate that in your offspring. They optimise "pure blood". They're immune to guilt and propaganda. They understand brotherhood. Tournament males in a group are exponentially more powerful than singular, competitive males. The pair bonder may be jealous and more inclined to betray bro's for hoes. They do what they want to do. They're not They care about how they look. Best dressed in the cultures. TM's are always king head first into entropy Ability to find a balance between courage and stupidity. You're willing to bear the consequences of the frame you've chosen to project. Responsibility and the age of responsibility. Bitcoin is perfect frame. Frame is responsibility - Standards - Interests - Habits Reconciling religious guilt VS not having guilt as a framed man. - Guilt is when you deviate or break frame. - Our goal as men is to unite with the ultimate frame of the divine. How do you build this frame? - Together. Brotherhood. There is so much more. Just get your ass in there and listen Oh...and a resource: r/K selection theory (Stefan Molyneoux) (Gene wars) K selected species Follow Trav here: https://twitter.com/Meta_Trav https://twitter.com/ParabolicTrav ____________________________________ Thanks again for listening.

Bushi: "warrior" = literally 'military + man'. Do: road, or way Bushido is also used as an overarching term for all the codes, practices, philosophies and principles of samurai culture. Bushido formalized earlier samurai moral values and ethical code, most commonly stressing a combination of sincerity, frugality, loyalty, martial arts mastery and honour until death It allowed the violent existence of the samurai to be tempered by wisdom, patience and serenity A code often unuttered to unwritten. Requires a rite of passage, and in order to become a Samurai, one must master this code. Variations by clan, by tribe and by territory.
