Agenda 2030, Agenda 2050, Agenda 21, Stablecoins, Climate Change, Control, Smart Cities, 15 Minute Cities, Surveillance, Bitcoin, Spiritual Awareness, Fear, Compliance, Resistance. Timothy Allen talks with Efrat Fenigson. This conversation explores the rise of centralised control in a digital age with particular reference to Agenda 2030. Efrat sees Agenda 2030 as a plan to control many facets of human life, from finances and movement to information and even food choices. She argues that while the agenda is presented as a benevolent path toward sustainability, it relies heavily on manipulating people through fear and encouraging compliance. Efrat is particularly concerned about the way climate change is being used to justify policies that could erode personal liberties. Efrat believes it’s impossible to save everyone, arguing that awakening to these realities is ultimately a personal choice. She emphasises the importance of individual responsibility, urging listeners to educate themselves, become financially independent through tools like Bitcoin, and seek out communities that align with their values. She also highlights the spiritual dimension of this struggle, suggesting that true freedom requires not just external changes but also inner work and a deeper understanding of one’s place in the world.

Freedom, Economics, Austrian Economics, Free Cities, State Control, Regulation, Agorism, Algorithms, Bitcoin, Decentralization, Internet Frontier, Globalization, Governance. Timothy Allen talks with Per Bylund. This episode delves into the philosophical and practical aspects of freedom, exploring how the internet, as a modern frontier, plays a pivotal role in shaping our current socio-political landscape. Per Bylund, an economist known for his work on entrepreneurship and the market process, shares insights into the evolution of the state and the natural inclination towards control, questioning whether true freedom is achievable in a world increasingly dominated by centralized governance. We discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by decentralization, the potential of free Cities as hubs of innovation, and the role of agorism and Bitcoin in circumventing state control. The conversation also touches on the nature of regulation and the contrasting perspectives on free markets and state intervention. Enjoy the conversation.

Elon Musk, Twitter, X, Free Speech, Censorship, Trump, US Election, Liberty, End The Fed, Nostr, Federal Reserve, Bitcoin, Libertarianism. Timothy Allen talks with Natalie Danelishen. It is election week in the US, so I thought we should get some feedback from a local this week. Natalie is well-embedded in the political quagmire as a well-followed Twitter influencer, tweeting about liberty and freedom. One of Elon's favourite libertarians, she even got Javier Milei to retweet a photo from the conference this year. Well done, Nat! We recorded this conversation a few days before the election, so we didn't know the result. However, as you'll hear, Natalie was pretty confident that Trump would win through. This is a very informal chat touching on money, politics, social media, and freedom in general. Enjoy the conversation.

Bitcoin, Pensions, Institutional Investment, Austrian Economics, 2008 Financial Crisis, Hyperinflation Risk, Energy Consumption, ESG Considerations, Pension Schemes, Financial Literacy, Financial Planning. Timothy Allen talks with Sam Roberts. Sam is a qualified actuary and director at Cartwright, a UK-based pensions and investment advisory firm that serves institutional clients such as corporate pension schemes, charities, and corporate treasuries. Under the direction of Sam, Cartwright has been the first UK firm to make the bold move of advising their clients to allocate bitcoin to their portfolios, part of the so called 'arrival of institutions' into this new financial realm. In this episode, we delve into Bitcoin's emerging role in the institutional investment landscape, particularly within pension funds. Sam shares his journey from the 2008 financial crisis to viewing Bitcoin as a hedge against systemic risks and discusses the challenges of integrating Bitcoin into the traditionally slow-moving pensions industry. We also discuss the potential of Bitcoin as a tool for economic resilience, its environmental impact, and its role in a future financial system that could lead to a new economic renaissance.

In this engaging discussion, Ben Arc, founder of LNbits and a pioneer in the Nostr movement, explores the revolutionary potential of decentralized social media. He explains how Nostr provides a censorship-resistant environment using cryptographic technology, making it a game changer for free speech. From contrasting Nostr with Blue Sky to examining communal living ideas in Wales, Arc delves into anarchism and innovative economic models in Honduras. He passionately advocates for the transformative power of decentralized technologies in enhancing digital identity and community empowerment.

Timothy Allen talks with Peter Young. So, how can I sum up the last 100 episodes? Well, it's been a phenomenal journey for me, which has taken me all over the world, meeting exceptional people who are really pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the market of living together. Of course, I feel very fortunate to have had this opportunity to learn out loud about all this stuff, and thankful that you've been able to come along with me for the ride. Before I started this podcast, governance wasn't high on my list of interests, but as the months have gone by, I've realised that it's one of the most important aspects of the freedom that we're all searching for in the world. Also, one of the aspects that is often at the heart of conflict and dispute. If only it were as simple as 'live and let live'… but we all know that it's not and never will be, so we carry on discussing, building, and creating parallel systems into which people can voluntarily opt in. There are no utopias in the future, there's no end to this road, but right now, what there is in our present is a world in which you can choose to work on a project that you believe in, a project that you can offer up to your fellow humans to join in or not, and then after that, and I've said this many times before, it's just a case of turning up each day and putting in the work. Never forget, you get to work on what I believe are the most interesting projects on the planet at this particular and incredible time in history. And I, for one, am extremely grateful for the opportunity. So here's to another 100 episodes of this podcast and to all the future pioneers I'll be talking to over the next two years. I salute you! And I've loved hanging out with you all. What a time to be alive! Enjoy the conversation.
