In this “Financial Friday on Satoshi Saturday” episode we discuss what bitcoin the software (wallet) is, what bitcoin the currency (BTC) is, and spend more than a little time talking about globally distributed ledger which stores all bitcoin transactions (The Blockchain). We go over what is good about bitcoin, what is bad about it, and conclude by introducing a concept which we’ll talk about much more in the future: smart contracts.

In this episode we lay some conceptual groundwork for next week's discussion of cypto-currency by defining the difference between money and currency, going into detail about the fundamental source of value behind money. We also talk about the bubble-inducing effects "forced charity" through government spending of tax revenues on things like education and healthcare, and how the institutional Church is right in the middle of -- and profiting from! -- this forced charity scheme.

In this episode we continue discussing the topic of our need to have sorrow for our sins, a sense of shame for what is wrong, and a healthy fear of the Lord. We also profile Saint Mary Magdalene as the exemplar of how to repent of one's sins -- and Ann utterly destroys the notion that Mary Magdalene was some sort of proto-feminist. We also review what is required in terms of contrition for a valid Sacramental confession.

In this episode we discuss a listener email about the Sacrament of Confession "being too easy" the way we described it in Episode 13, so we dive into the what it means to be sorry for one's sins in an authentic sense. We also talk about shame: how the loss of it in the moral sense is devastating not just to individuals but society at large.
