2/2 You may find parts interesting as it is hosted exclusively on IPFS Podcasting and I hand edited the RSS feed. Also pretty sure it was one of the first shows to use V4V music as intros and outros.

Great episode guys. Shannon was another great guest. How is it that all Bitcoin Meetup organizers are so articulate. I would imagine they are good looking as well.
Shoutout to the Comox Valley Bitcoin at the Beach meetup. The venue was the beach and it went swimmingly. There were burgers, baked goods, tallow and lard, plants and freeze dried products for sale for BTC. I think it is a beautiful beginning to a Bitcoin market.

I probably boosted the wrong episode. I can't seem to login to Fountain on GrapheneOS using Amber. It is my usual method of boosting and I am in the market for a new app, but none seem to fit the bill. Long live Nostr integration on localbitcoiners.com.
