Had to make it over to Fountain for a long overdue boost… The Neo-cons, like the libtards, have never actually been in charge… They are both too retarded for global domination. They are just masters at schlong gobbling the centuries old occult bloodlines that actually rule over us. However, they did help summon Baal with the public execution of Charlie Kirk inside a pentagon, so ushering in the return of Jesus makes sense now for some final boss showdown action. Can I place a ploymarket bet on that?! Wow, separate shout outs from Richard AND Rod, thanks Gentlemen! I’ll add a deserving shout out to all the Mom’s of the pioneers! P.S. I traded in 2 decades of 40 HPW on my first generation iPod for 40 HPW of bitcoin podcasts. It was such a natural progression. Still love TooL though, even if Maynard turned into a woke retard.

Lynn Alden discussing the intricacies of cleaning a vagina versus a penis on Nostr definitely elevated her hotness level in my book. Being endowed with a pair of tits myself, I feel qualified to say that she helps validate other tits in bitcoin and anyone threatened by hot tits should automatically fail the purity test. Also, as the purveyor of an Elvis themed establishment, this episodes’ boost reading section gave me extra good vibes!

Been listening a long time, definitely one of the best Bitcoin podcasts out there! Tried boosting several times, but fountain posted error messages every time. To answer this weeks question about hardware wallets, I recommend passport by foundation. It’s open source, airgapped, has optional view only app for iPhone or android, has a customer replaceable battery should you ever need it, extremely easy to use, and owned by another trusted freedom tech podcaster from the Ungovernable Misfits team. Love them and this wallet. I haven’t used it, but another member of the UM team also developed cake wallet that I’ve heard great things about! Keep up the great work and thanks for all you do… and Happy New Year!!

I’m a jerk, listen all the time on Podverse and never switch to Fountain to send a boost. Here is a space balls boost as an apology. I always appreciate you’re grounded perspective!

This interview gave a validating voice to my own subconscious murmurings about the growth of my pizzeria... Profitability only to the point of uncompromised values, with the deeper value coming from constant personal analysis, reflection, and growth. Oh, and that sweet second cup, almost as satisfying as the first. Fantastic follow up! PS Rev Hodl interview was equally as great, just don’t make it over to Fountain to boost each time.

I own a tavern & pizzaria… AI Isn’t replacing me OR any of my staff. In fact, I could get behind the arguement that It increases future job potential. I use it daily to help fine-tune social media posts, brainstorm pizza and cocktail features, and even write recipes… All of which add to my productivity, reach, and growth.

From Lake Satoshi to the virtual coffee shop, it was an honor and privilege to spend such quality time together! And wow, that outro song is a banger… I second Sir Spence on recreating it IRL next year!

Relishing in the good vibes of your virtual coffee shop… Brings me back to my cigarette smoking high school days when we’d spend endless hours philosophizing at our local shop, when smoking sections were still a thing! The Perfect Strangers reference was equally nostalgic!

Finding out about and then listening to this on the drive home from LS was definitely a highlight of the weekend. Comedic gold and such great signal and perspective! Stoked to add Bugle and Rock Paper Bitcoin to the must listen to podcast queue. Now I understand the math talk about listening to 40 hours per week 😂

Congratulations on the Maxi Madness success and Happy belated Easter Gentleman! It’s no Pastor Jeff’s sermon, but I was able to Christen my teenager on Easter Sunday by showering in blood together at the hands of GWAR on their 40th anniversary tour. PS still laughing about Noa Gruman being a bot

Rant on!!! A-fucking-men!!!! And thank you for mentioning the dead babies in other countries. Unfortunately, I don’t think they count when our own tax dollars fund the killing. Such hypocrisy and such utter bullshit on all fronts. The samurai wallet guys should’ve helped fund the White House ballroom, maybe then they could’ve gotten a pardon. Wow, and Kazakhstan is making an announcement about an announcement about buying an ETF… what fucking pioneers! Ha, and everyone knows the best way to build a reserve is by illegally confiscating alleged illegal funds… Take a bite out of crime! Thanks for the cynicism and sarcasm, it pulls on all my heart strings.

Also, I’m extremely disappointed that our SBR is being built with nefariously confiscated coins only and the funding for the White House ballroom comes from big tech, Ripple, Coinbase, and Tether… but nothing shady or concerning to see here folks, go back to your regularly scheduled pleb slop.

I passed the jab test, but failed miserably on the psyop that this time would be different. The second he launched his shit coin I knew I had been duped. The only consolation is that the memes are better and I thoroughly enjoy the irony of being called a fascist for not supporting government intervention.

Love that you mentioned my favorite drummer, Danny Carrey, a few episodes back and the regular regenerative farming talk!! Also, I second you checking out the Lake Satoshi bitcoin retreat next summer… No need to travel to Central or South America to find a small band of awesome pioneers, high signal discussions, and killer barbecue from a most generous host!

So Milei shows up like an Austrian economics savage and slaughters his government spending, bringing triple digit inflation down to double digits, then he rug pulls a $99 million crypto scam and loses all trust, and now we’re bailing them out for $20 billion?!? Hmm, off the cuff here, but kind of seems to parallel our President coming in with DOGE, then rug pulling his own shitcoin, and looking to get a massive dollar decline bailout from stable coins. Just when I think my faith in the system can’t get any lower.

Always listening, but missing some boosts… I just can’t be bothered to switch over to Fountain FM each episode. They are definitely a centralized enemy of bitcoin. P.S. That was a catchy as fuck Christmas jingle at the end, nice!

Great take on the doomer AI rhetoric Chris! You can almost hear the bubble burst and printer go brr to bail out these frontier AI companies as they backpedal their stance under the masked premise of an altruistic AI slow down to save humanity, that is clearly only a cover for their realization that they are not the gatekeepers they thought they were.

Best to sun your tits and balls in the heat of the day to keep the mosquitoes at bay! Busch Light is certainly for the farmer and patriot alike, but I believe pioneers drink small local brews, not that mass produced corporate bullshit.

Any boobs can be sex symbols with proper marketing, glaze or simple appreciation! Every good relationship should have manipulation from both sides that maximize each other’s potential… Any other form of manipulation, run to the hills! Signal chats validated. The future holds Bugle Match Making services and Lake Satoshi karaoke. I will be cheering on both from the sidelines!

I gladly drove 7 hours to the Lake Satoshi Bitcoin Retreat in Central Michigan. Midwest camping at its finest, because of the people! If it was in the Midwest, I would definitely road trip to your event. Thanks for the signal and thanks for the optimism, despite all the bears!

Fresh powder days are the absolute best, sign me up for some neuroplasticity through an ayahuasca experience! And Pearl Jam also turned into a bunch of woke retards, but seriously, you think Nickelback is 100 times better?? I think I need to look closer at your credentials, you might be a fed.

The brain rot you’re thinking of from GenX was manufactured bubble gum pop like New Kids, Spice Girls, and Hanson and sugar glazed shows like Full House, Saved by the Bell, and Baywatch… definitely not grunge, and certainly not TooL. Why you doggin’ on GenXers, glazing Zoomers and not even mentioning the epic rot levels of the Millennials? I’m on the cusp but would claim GenX on TooL alone.

Glad you mentioned the podcaster investigating the assasination of another podcaster. Wild. Pretty sure she listens to bitcoin podcasts too, she keeps referring to official narratives as “fed slop”.

Gentleman, pay no attention to anyone that complains about you continuing to raise awareness about pleb slop… Everyone knows that nothing stops this train, but not enough people know that nothing stops the slop. And Rod, I owe you an apology from a few episodes back… Nickelback is the band that doesn’t even qualify as pleb slop, not Creed. Sorry I momentarily confused the two and sent a boost in the midst. After this episode’s legendary quote, “Still drinking that sweet greasy pleb slop like it’s Artisanal bone broth”, I will never doubt you again. Last, I always thought Chemtrails made better sunsets, but I guess I’m rarely up early enough to prove that theory against sunrises… I think this is an important question for a Dear Bubba episode.

Fundamentals, how can you possibly say that we have free markets in America… and “Blackrock is doing the most work to defund the fiat system”? . American free markets are as big of an illusion as the two party system making us a democracy… and Blackrock IS the fucking Fiat system. Simon Dixon just laid down a compelling argument on Bitcoin Hard Talk episode #102 “blackrock’s evil plan to steal your bitcoin“ that’s worth a listen… Deep dives a lot of what you guys are talking about… TDLR; we don’t need to fear the government as much as we need to fear the financial industrial complex that controls it. PS love caribou‘s optimism on changing the political system to change the monetary system, but Lynn Alden is right, nothing stops this train short of it driving off a cliff because enough of us boycott the system. Same with ticks… I won’t be scared of nature, but I’ll certainly take all the precautions to not get exposed to their bio weapon. I’ve seen way too many friends here in the Midwest have their lives and health destroyed by them.

    Homesteading and opting out is way more enticing then going to the hill, but I sure value those of you fighting that fight! Thanks for your optimism!
