SPONTANEOUS RIP TIME!

Over the last few days, Conor McGregor, one of the most recognizable names on Earth, has been buzzing about establishing a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve in Ireland to break the country free from the EU chains. Amidst the tweetstorm (which has garnered tens of millions of views), he retweeted a recent podcast by these 2 fine gentlemen, Chris McLaughlin & Alan Bryden.

I invited them on to dive deep into their case for why Ireland adopting Bitcoin would be a fantastic idea as a means of bringing its people freedom, more affordable real estate, and lots more.

Enjoy the conversation! (And Conor if you're reading this, remember: BITCOIN ONLY sir 👀)

Dan Gauerke, a very interesting dude that I met during a whitewater rafting trip in Colombia, joins me today to discuss a topic we touched on a couple months ago with our good friend Peruvian Bull: The GATEWAY TAPES, and the many emerging methods people like you and I can use to expand our consciousness to levels we never thought possible.

I strongly encourage everyone listening to go and give these tapes a try, and dive deeper into your own journey of meditation however you see fit. There are incredible doors just waiting to be opened on this path, as more and more people are finding out firsthand!

NEW RABBIT HOLE TIME!!

Today we are taking our first foray into the TARTARIA conspiracy, one of my personal favorites I've been diving into in the last several months.

This one is huge, folks. Buckle up, and prepare to wipe your mind clean of everything you thought you knew about world history…

Also, as recommended in the episode, I encourage you to watch the documentary "The Primordial Code", an excellent supplementary movie created by past podcast guest Marijn Poels 👇

For this episode, I visited my alma mater Fiat University to discuss the woes of fiat education, and how Bitcoin will fix this mess and make everyone smart again w/ Tim Niemeyer!

Apologies to Tim for taking forever to upload this one - we recorded it all the way back in January 😅

Enjoy the rip folks, and if you have friends/family in the education industry, this would be a great one to share with them!

This was a real treasure of a conversation.

Aaron (known as BTC Essex on Nostr/X) is doing excellent work bringing new artists into our crazy little world of Bitcoin, Nostr, and Value-4-Value, including the incredibly-talented UK musician Longy, whose music I sprinkled around the episode for you to enjoy!

Check out all the links below to follow & zap Longy, as well as Aaron's project "BTC Essex" and all the important work he's doing.

---

We spent most of the first half of the episode chatting about Aaron's story. If you're a musician or other artist looking to dive straight into the Value-4-Value discussion, skip to 1:11:54.

Also, there's a mild ringing noise at some parts in the audio. I did my best to edit it out, but you can still hear it occasionally. Sorry about that.

---

Check out LONGY, the UK musician and V4V pioneer I featured tracks from throughout this episode! 👇

🎵 Intro - Careful What You Wish For

🎵 1:10:37 - Back From The Abyss

🎵 1:31:56 - Drip Fed Internet Blues

🎵 2:12:33 - Deadly Sins

🎵 Longy's Wavlake with the rest of his music

The Value-4-Value train is continuing to gain steam for artists! Today I'm joined by the INCREDIBLY talented Kathryn, and we're talking all about the quintessential modern artist's hero's journey, and why V4V is the endgame for these folks looking to make a living through their craft.

If you're already on Nostr, go follow & zap Kathryn through the npub below ⚡️

And if you're not on Nostr yet…GET ON IT, FRIEND!! Where we're going, we won't need Spotify or any of the other crappy fiat music apps.
