On tonight’s episode of Rise Up After Dark, we’re joined by a couple legends: 

Green Jeff—ponzi plunderer and DeFi founder extraordinaire—(aka @jeffthedunker) takes us through his crypto origin story, from Bitcoin gambling on a Minecraft server to navigating governance protocols like AAVE and Curve, and eventually founding protocols like Metronome, Vesper Finance, and his latest project, Odyssey Finance—a bold attempt to make DeFi actually usable for real people.

Evan & Alex give Jeff his well-earned flowers as a friend, mentor, and one of the sharpest minds in the space. He breaks down:

• How to build conviction in DeFi and size your positions accordingly
• How to elevate your yield strategies
• Why Odyssey is different—and how to get involved
• Why he’s so frustrated with Jesse Pollak’s “Coin It” campaign on Base 

Then in the second half, we welcome back Lindsay Poss and get to meet her cohost Larissa Bundziak of the hit Seeking Alpha Podcast in what becomes a hilarious, thoughtful, and slightly unhinged roundtable covering:

• How they got started and their chemistry as cohosts
• What it’s like to operate “at the intersection of Crypto Twitter, Silicon Valley, and Tinder”
• How we're using AI (and which we’d Marry, F%&!, or Kill
• Why they’re doubling down on smart, funny, fearless content to serve a bigger audience

Mentors, mischief, and market wisdom—this one is unforgettable.
