The BioMedWire Podcast

Conservative alt-coin podcast hosts Drew Taylor and Brent Bates recently welcomed guests and the audience to a lively episode of their wildly popular Wild West Crypto Show. The program delved into “another week at the speed of crypto.” “Folks, let me tell you something. If you’re not diversified, out of just cash, out of just the stock market,” Taylor said, shooting straight with some cowboy friendly and common-sense advice to diversify into cryptos, gold, silver and other assets considering all that’s going on with the financial markets, Afghanistan and world events. The show also featured CryptoCurrencyWire’s Jonathan Keim, to discuss the three hottest stories of the week, as well as the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Brent’s Over the Fencepost and Taylor’s Cowboy Logic segments. A special guest to the program was the hosts’ long-time buddy, Ronnie Moas, to discuss his book, filled with amazing stories of a time he literally walked 10,000 miles around the world with photographs detailing every bit of his journey. “I have just this insatiable appetite to travel. I mean you only live once, and I always knew, from the time I was in high school, that marriage/kids was not for me. I was not cut out for that . . . I did something that most people would never be able to do,” Moas says, discussing his long trek as well as a recent experience of seeing the beauty of Montana for the first time and his earliest travel days. “My first big trip was actually at age 35. I hadn’t traveled that much . . . I went to Thailand, Japan and Hawaii, and I just got hooked.”

CryptoCurrencyWire’s Jonathan Keim shared the latest and greatest in the world of cryptocurrencies, as well as special guest Greg Magarshak, the founder of Intercoin, and his team to discuss their project. “Intercoin was started with a vision that any community in the world — churches, yoga studios, also cities and universities — can have their own coin, their own currency,” Magarshak said, responding to Taylor’s question regarding Intercoin and how it is changing the crypto space. Magarshak went on to explain how cities want to assist their communities, i.e., help the homeless with food, security, etc., but discussed the challenges in doing so without their own currency. Describing his first company’s efforts to build apps for communities, now reaching 9 million people in 95 countries, Magarshak indicates that the idea of Intercoin is to build currencies on top of the social networking apps the team has created.

CryptoCurrencyWire’s Jonathan Keim’s take on the latest trends in the world of cryptocurrencies. The Look and Learn segment further featured discussion surrounding the 24-hour globalization of crypto. “Crypto is 24/7. Its lights are on all the time,” Bates said, describing the nuances of cryptocurrency trading. “What a lot of people don’t realize is, with crypto, you’re not only your own compliance department … your own bank … your own back operations; you’re your own trading platform. There are a whole lot of things you have to consider before you just go in there and hit sell… before you go in there and hit buy. I think what will happen over time, and we’ve been talking about this for four years, the exchanges are going to start to consolidate. They’re going to start to give better service, more transparency,” he said, describing the projected future as compared to current trading as the wild, wild west.

CryptoCurrencyWire’s Jonathan Keim then shined the spotlight on the latest and greatest in the world of cryptocurrencies. Perhaps the most authentically wild part of the show was spent on the hosts’ takes on the recent crazy ride of cryptos. Taylor described cryptos of late as “bucking like bodacious” and asked viewers whether they stayed on for the eight-second ride or ran for the fences. Bates then gave his view, spicing things up like Texas-style barbecue with some cowboy friendly investment advice. “Look, this ain’t my first rodeo,” he said, with a knowing grin followed with some cowboy logic. “Just relax. If you stay in crypto long enough, you’re gonna see this multiple times again… You know, folks, the closest you’ll ever get to being an actual entrepreneur is investing in an early stage startup. You get a little flavor, and, I’m telling you, it’s just a little flavor for those of us who are entrepreneurs that start something. Bootstrapping it out of the garage, or whatever it starts out at… You’re gonna get that ride, and it’s what makes you enjoy it when you get to the bottom line and you make some good money.”

CryptoCurrencyWire’s Jonathan Keim shared the latest and greatest happenings in the world of cryptocurrencies. Richard Heart also joined the program to discuss the HEX project. “The government just prints money out of thin air,” Heart said. “The price of everything just shoots up through the roof. We’ve got all-time highs in the stock market, all-time highs in cryptocurrencies, all-time highs in gold. . . All-time highs in everything. . . And, why? Because they keep printing money.” Heart goes on to discuss inflation and explain the nuances of HEX. “In HEX, people are paid to wait. The longer you lock your money, the larger the share of inflation that you get. It took bitcoin ten years to get to 3.89 inflation, back when it was at $20,000.  We just jumped right to that after year one, and we said alright, we’re going to have 3.6 now, right after the first year. And who’s going to get that inflation? The people who lock up their money. And, the longer you lock it, the more you get. And that’s a more fair and honest way that monetizes the time value of money that no other cryptocurrency in the world does. And it’s the only thing any price cares about, is that people buy and hold. So, we directly monetize the only thing the price cares about.”

The show additionally welcomed in-house special guest — the late Rush Limbaugh’s cousin, Andy Limbaugh. Andy shined the spotlight on the early days of Rush’s career when he started “just really taking off” in the late 1989, early 1990 timeframe. Rush was concerned about the effect of his budding popularity on the national scale to the prominent Limbaugh family, attorneys and well-known figures in southeast Missouri. Now, with Rush’s passing, the story has come full circle as Andy discusses carrying on the legacy. “There are some things coming in the Limbaugh family that are going to help keep some of that legacy alive, and freedom, liberty and other things, right?” Taylor asks the younger Limbaugh cousin of what’s in store. Andy agreed that there is more and that all are going to do their best to “keep that ball moving down the field,” with a group effort, focus and thick skin required for what’s to come.
