137 - Ben Gunn: Three Rules For Life - Part 2

“Sit outside, stare at the night sky while smoking a cigarette and ask yourself: am I a sentient being or am I an npc?” #40HPW🎧

“Go commit an act of selfishness and buy your wife a nice gift. It feels great.” 🧡 #40HPW🎧 learned me this! Not college political science.

“Everything is good for the bugle. Everything is good for Bitcoin and everything is good for Phish” 🧡🚬 #40HPW🎧

What a way to spend an hour on a plane! @npub1hghnjjpnv… @npub1z4y76jl8r… First off, my wife and I always ask for “pat downs” with a medical exemption instead of going through the radiation scanners What a ride it is going through airport security, even for a domestic flight, fully frisked for “my safety”, paperwork at every step, talk about a conditioning process for the controlled Then there I am, in a small tube, going god knows how fast, looking out the window with my daughter next to me, thinkin about the past life work we had last year, and the story I was told about having known her soul before How lucky I was to get to know her again (long story, but I was a pastor in another life, and travelled to Australia once before, lost my wife and kids, and befriended a young girl who was bulk used by her own family. That same girl is now my eldest daughter) So there I am, zooming along, deep in thought, as all around me Netflix drivel is being devoured, and then boom… Red just laying it down - re-incarnation - Mu - archaeology - propaganda - plate tectonics - ufo’s - density - light Which ultimately got me thinking about control. The cypherpunks were so on point. The digital world is the perfect playground for control. Imagine trying to censor every bible ever written…? Now all you need to do is capture a handful of tech guys, and the narrative is yours. The romans in their quest for centralisation would have paid handsomely for such abilities A quick google search and it references “mythical” origins Scent expunged Gosh what a journey We’ve got to keep asking questions, talking, learning, teaching, and exploring. F*ck these scenarios where the truth is purposely hidden GM

Hell yeah. More of my favourite people talking about things I’m very interested in. I love this timeline. Long live the podcasters! #40HPW🎧

Oops #40HPW

Great show 🧡🚬 #40HPS

Huge boost! I have not only afforded my taxes, but I completed and filed them by the end of the episode…that being said I should probably listen again 🧡🚬 #40HPW🎧

Poignant, topical, robust and balanced. This is what real journalism smells like. 🚬 #40HPW🎧

It was a true joy spending 2025 with you two. Bring on the conversion. #40HPW🎧

Preboost 🙏 #40HPW🎧

LFG 🧡🚬 #40HPW🎧

The Bitcoin Bus achieved a 5x multiple on its podcast listening producing a yield of 17.85% apr. #40HPW🎧

This is the best thing on the internets #40HPW🎧

Thank you for the journey! “We’re all in this together.”

#40HPW🎧🚬🧡

Great conversation this gents 👏👏👏

"He's one of the weirdest individuals I've ever met in my life. Really hard work. Really annoying. But also brilliant." Can confirm.

Great topics. 🧡🚬🙏

Don’t forget the beastie boys “Shadrach”. Yes, my name came from the Torah. Awesome show guys! #40HPW🎧

Good fun with great friends 🙏 #40HPW🎧

There is something so special about sitting down and really listening to these guys. 🙏 #40HPW🎧 on stage was 🧨

Ultimate super hero cross over episode. RPB+UM LFG #40HPW🎧🚬

Thank you gentlemen. Long live the giggler. 🚬 #40HPW🎧

After the last episode I was blessed to call @npub12eml5kmtr… on the telephone and he explained what you were trying to tell me to think. He even gave me some homework so it doesn’t happen again. I appreciate the understanding and the signal. 🧡🚬 #40HPW🎧

Mainlining signal #40HPW🎧

I always get emotional listening to you guys. 🧡🙏 #40HPW🎧

I don’t know why people feel proud when their kids graduate and shit. 2024 was the first year all my kids were able to afford to pay their taxes. Thank you Bitcoin and Bitcoin podcasters. Happy New Year

Wow. Had to boost again at the end. “Good journalism mirrors the world around it” Before the media was paid for, you wanted to make sure journalists didn’t “make you look bad” so you made an effort. The bugle are the vanguard. Keep shining light of truth. 🧡🚬 #40HPW🎧

Your guest list is complete. Great show. #40HPW🎧

Unbelievably important topic to study as an investor. What if your entire wealth stack has a high counter-party risk you don’t even know about? The beauty of Bitcoin in self-custody is you can be so confident that you actually own what you own Indeed, I argue that I see counter-party risk everywhere when I look at 99% of investments

This is one hell of a ride. Always love to learn from people who have experience from deep within the fiat beast… Will work through all 4 eps asap

Excellent epsiode gents And congrats on 1000 eps @npub16le69k9hw… @npub1qh5sal68c… @npub14mcddvsjs…

I love this idea of shipping ideas fast, ie actually have a prototype out there, and testing it Top conversation gents @npub1dergggklk… @npub1jss47s4fv…
