Bitcoin Rapid-Fire
John Vallis
Bitcoin is the future of money, that is my firm belief. I use this show to learn more about this phenomenon, and its various implications, from some of the brightest minds in the space, and beyond. I'm not trying to educate or inform anyone, I'm sharing my own journey of attempting to understand bitcoin, and delving in to some of the less obvious, but incredibly profound, aspects of its emergence in the global culture.

Discussing Integrity, Truth, Bitcoin & John Vervaeke's 'Awakening from the Meaning Crisis'
I often ask the twitterverse if there are any bitcoiners out there who would like to jump on the podcast for a discussion about whatever they're into (or want to discuss).
Mark reached out, and directed me toward his excellent work of summarizing each part of John Vervaeke's 'Awakening from the Meaning Crisis'.
I thought it was a great effort, and likely indicative of someone who has considered those (and other) ideas deeply.
So we set up a chat.
Enjoy:)

Bitcoin and Veterans w/ Wes Lippman
I often ask the twitterverse if there are any bitcoiners out there who would like to jump on the podcast for a discussion about whatever they're into (or want to discuss).
Wes sent me a piece of writing he did, exploring the reasons why bitcoin does/should appeal to veterans and people in the military.
I enjoyed reading it, and wanted to hear more about Wes' perspective, so I invited him on for a chat.
Enjoy:)

Plebcast: Norse Mythology, Meaning, & Bitcoin w/ @BtcPseudoFinn
I often ask the twitterverse if there are any bitcoiners out there who would like to jump on the podcast for a discussion about whatever they're into (or want to discuss).
Luke hit me up saying that he'd be down for a chat, in particular around his investigation of archetypes and Norse mythology.
Sounded great to me.
Enjoy:)

Canadian Parents Fall Down the Bitcoin Rabbit-Hole
I often ask the twitterverse if there are any bitcoiners out there who would like to jump on the podcast for a discussion about whatever they're into (or want to discuss).
Cara hit me up a while back, saying that she was just a 'normal mother of 3 who's fallen down the bitcoin rabbit-hole', and that she'd be up for a chat sometime, so we put it together.
Enjoy:)

Orange-Pilling Presidents, & Discussing Education on a Bitcoin Standard w/ Daniel Prince
Daniel Prince is a fellow bitcoin podcaster and a close personal friend.
We got to spend some great time together at the Miami Bitcoin conference in April, amidst his whirlwind of making the case for bitcoin to presidents and hanging out with royalty:)
It had been a while since we caught up, so I figured we'd do so on the pod and discuss what the last few months have been like for him.
Enjoy!

Leaving the Military, Ego Death & Reconstruction, Bitcoin's Influence on Perception, & Building Open Source Tools w/ Heavily Armed Clown
Heavily Armed Clown is a podcaster, software developer, co-creator of the popular website wtfhappenedin1971.com, fellow bitcoiner, and friend.
In late 2021 he recorded a solo episode on his podcast (Bitcoin Echo Chamber), sharing the (fairly intimate) early life experiences and challenges which he had confronted, and how those events had taught and revealed to him several things about himself, and put him on a course to building a healthier, happier, and more meaningful life.
I found it interesting, and am generally quite interested in hearing such stories, especially those in which bitcoin played a role, and hadn't caught up with HAC in too long anyways, so I invited him on for a chat about it all.
Enjoy!

Self-Sovereign Homesteading on a Bitcoin Standard w/ HodlRev
Many bitcoiners, including myself, are interested in the means and methods of establishing greater sovereignty and independence in their lives, and as a result, are becoming increasingly interested in the different ways and details of homesteading, permaculture farming/ranching, off-grid living etc.
A recent guest (@CaptainSiddh), mentioned that he had met a bitcoiner on his motorcycle trip across America (visiting as many bitcoin meetups as possible), who was building a very interesting homestead operation.
So, I invited him on for a chat.
Enjoy!
