Obscura VPN with Carl Dong | FREEDOM TECH FRIDAY 54

Interesting how the data on chain folks are the biggest maxis. #40hpw

@npub1dqu222da7… and @rev.hodl are both the most deserving winners on nostr. That was super fun and a great way to promote and foster genuine engagement. “It’s always funny until someone gets hurt. Then it’s just hilarious” #40HPW🎧

I think she’s Lyn’s alter ego

I hate I'm not going to be able to make it to Vegas to hang with y'all. Give everyone a hug from me! (not that anyone really knows me - but some do!) Tell Marty I still appreciate his candor in Nashville. Odell, though, I'm still a bit saddened about his cold shoulder at "the Park" to me and my wife.

Keep up the good work gents! Really enjoy y'all's discussions and it's holding me over until I can get back to Lake Satoshi and listen to Rev speak his mind about all the things he has bouncing around in there! And hopefully someone will start boosting from South Alabama or Florida panhandle area with a meetup.

#valuechain FTW 🙌

10 days since an episode!? Rod, tell Greaser to stop drinking in Vegas and record a pod! I guess I can catch up on my antiwar.com pods and my Ron Paul weekly reports while y'all push button slots in Vegas with the boomercons...

Let's not forget Bitcoin has already won, Bitcoin fixes this, and if you don't agree, zoom out and lower your time preference. It's going up forever, Laura.

Sometimes I don't know what to say in my boost. But I feel compelled to do so. I thought about skipping but I'm curious if you will read boosts in this next week show you were teasing... Anyway, here's some more sats for providing me entertainment at work.

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

Plebs become pioneers by participating in their local Bitcoin culture. @npub1cvcgs83gw… is the podcast where the plebs can find out about Bitcoin meetups and the pioneers can learn how to start one. Hyperbitcoinization is a local phenomena.

This reminds me of a John Mulaney joke in one of his standups about midgets. In this case it’s “He’s calling me a pleb! That’s worse than the N-Word” “Well, first of all... no.... and second, you know how I know which word is worse? You are saying one of those words but you are not saying the other word. That other word is probably the worser word!” I honestly don’t understand this whole BIP-110 thing - curious where I should go to even hear about it. What podcaster has actually explained it without their thumb on the scale? I wasn’t here for the block size wars but a bit concerned about this current thing. Plebs are always grumpy about the “current thing” - Maybe I’m not the pioneer I thought I was.... My fat white ass was certainly not deported - I’m just a retard and forgot to boost. But y’all also aren’t reading off any thank you to your subscribers anymore!

Plebphobia

Hero series has been awesome

🤣🤣🤣 Plebs segregating themselves is pretty hilarious

I need a “pray the pleb away” conversion camp recommendation. My daughter is dating a pleb. Please send help. #40HPW🎧

When details on the Sasha Vegas run?

Is my fountain subscriber working now?

Flying Man!

I’m glad you certified that summer starts Memorial Day weekend! I look forward to my weekly glazing until then! Tell Bibi I said I earned it and he can check my credentials himself! But why won't the glazings continue after MDW?

Very few plebs on nostr. There is no glazing on nostr. Nostr feels like home if you are doing the work and building the future. Nostr is pure first turning vibes. You can join us, but you won't like it here unless you're producing real things that the community wants.

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

Often, in hindsight, the journey is the destination.

Fundamentals is a suitcoiner now?! Lol I also enjoy wearing something that promotes people talking to you. I've found this ridiculous mustache also triggers conversation where someone may not otherwise talk to me. It's like an unspoken icebreaker.

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

👍🏻👍🏻

Great rip. I really enjoyed it. #40HPW🎧

Rock, Paper, Bitcoin is an essential pod for your #40hpw. Always high signal!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Should have named the last episode “Cash for Clankers” - I honestly thought the title was “Clunkers” until y’all switched to robotism... Anyway, man, I have so many stories about buying or selling cars! Dealerships are the worst! We just dealt with one and it was quite a situation! This poor kid sold his first car to me and I took him on a rollercoaster of emotions!

Sounds like the conference was good, might be onto something with pleb daycare. #40hpw

Great to hear y’all and sounds like all the hugs were worth the trip alone! Wish I had been there to give you a hug too! Good thing Dennis Porter didn’t get close enough for a hug or you would have poked him in the leg! Y’all didn’t say anything about the RHR Hotstyle Takeover. Sounded like they turned your mics on mute and only gave you soundboard permissions!

Wore the “Bugle News” red shirt in Vegas

Welcome back. #40HPW🎧

Hugs are underrated

Next year hug inbound!!

🧡⚡️💜

Every pioneer, a podcaster.

Great vibes

WE NEED MORE WOMEN IN TITCOIN

Noted: “Bitcoin Podcaster” it shall remain! I will default to our fearless generals - our podcasters. I really enjoyed listening to this episode of three Bitcoin Podcasters with completely real voices - true pioneers with the best voices in Bitcoin Podcasting. I think I owe you a response to a recent message, Dick, I’ll hopefully be able to get back to you soon!

👍🏻👍🏻💯

Missed a boost last week (and apparently the week before) when I was traveling to my sister’s wedding and definitely missed my 40HPW last week. I saw a real person wearing a Zues Wallet shirt. I stopped and pointed and said “hey Zues Wallet” and he just ignored me. My vibes were pretty low after being ignored IRL. I just put my head down, put my headphones back on, and caught up with 80HPW this week!

A good antidote for pleb slop is the local Bitcoin meetup. Ditch the plebs on the sloppy socials and join the pioneers on the local frontier. Can't find a meetup? Start one!

Pleb slop psychosis is unconsciously holding so many back from achieving their potential. Sad…

"Spoon fed #plebslop" 💪 #40HPW🎧

Fiat subsidy has homogenized our roles in relationships. The majesty of our roles will return once we live lives more in tune with nature. Give up convenience for truth and let the magic of life prevail.

I feel so bad we aren't coming to LS this year! I'm going to miss out on all these connections but have to keep telling myself my family comes first and bringing my whole clan was just not possible this time. Y'all have a wonderful time! Y'all's discussions about these opportunities to contribute are so hard at such a distance! I'll really miss the chance to maybe be part of a podcast episode! Y'all give each other plenty of hugs since I won't be there to do so myself! I feel the same way Phundamentals does about events being over. It's a psychological condition and sometimes I feel like I build up so excitement for events that I don't even actually enjoy the event itself! Y'all lock in and focus on the moment. You are correct that once it's gone, it's gone forever...

❤️💪 #40HPW🎧

👍🏻🫡👍🏻

The plebs stagnanted... The pioneers are building the future 😎

I’m a lady 💅

It really does feel like you're sitting around the coffee table listening to a great conversation. The pioneers are going to be half way through the first turning before the plebs even realize it's they've been left behind in the fourth turning.

GM Less sleep, more podcasts #40HPW🎧

Flair espresso maker is a manual plastic free(in brewing chamber, not overall) and sub $400 option. Great shots and durable af

Need that Vegas event to happen again this year

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

YOU DON'T WANT ANY PART OF THIS DEWEY! Thank you for the reminder of this movie! Can't believe Business Cat doesn't know... Also, yes, he got very echoey in the middle of the episode. Went away as randomly as it started!

After several years of continuing to reduce my participation in the fiat system, those who have stuck with me have given up on trying to drag me back into the system. They still don't really understand what the ideals I'm striving for though.

Extraction creates disconnection, unification is love, consensus governance is unification, Bitcoin is loving. To stop participating in extraction and to more deeply participate in unification, is how Bitcoin fixes this.

Please put me in touch with Dave’s plebnode repair. My $3000+ (paid in btc obvs) @npub126ntw5mne… plebnode died two days ago and I’m worried about losing my social capital. Thanks in advance. #40HPW🎧

This music video shows how much the @npub1563z6kxmv… has a finger on the pulse of Bitcoin culture! https://youtu.be/uwzjbZ0d-Ds

I love this song

Boosting to the void! But number goes up!

This entire podcast is loaded with valuable takeaways. Worth listening to twice. So damn good! Personally I resonated with the discussion on producing high quality consumable products that can't be recreated because nature is intimately involved. I feel the same way about breeding and growing cannabis.

Great conversation! Keep up the good work gents! And my boost amount is not demonic! Greaser and Palmer understood it immediately! It's just stupid teenage boy shit. I would boost 58008 but I didn't buy Bitcoin in 2010... I need to order some Peony Lane wine now!

Spilling coffee is the adult equivalent of losing your balloon 🎈

👍🏻👍🏻🫡

Mile high boost. If I don't make it, please bury me with my podcast headphones, a pack of non kyc cigarettes and my bugle lighter. #40HPW🎧

In early so y'all actually read this next week. It wasn't my fault Fountain locked me out of my wallet for a few weeks. 💩

🧡💜🫂💜🧡

Outro song is 🔥🔥

👍🏻👍🏻

BREAKING: AIPAC ALIENS! What if the aliens don't bleed? There will be no blood for the tree of liberty.... Rod sounded sad this episode. Is everything OK buddy? I’ll karaoke a song with you at Lake Satoshi. I know my wife will sing a song too if someone has karaoke set up!

Great shout out to @npub12apcw0ak2… #40HPW🎧

Keep up the good work gents! I almost crashed out yesterday paying my taxes. Barely afforded them this year. Hate I won't be able to see y'all at the Podconf Superbowl! Sounds like a fun event with RHR and Pubkey!

👍🏻🫡

The biggest problem with the old way of podcasting is that the podcasters are monetizing thier audience by selling someone else's stuff via sponsorships. Podcasting 2.0 monetizes the actual value the podcast delivers. Start a podcast to sell your value not someone else's slop.

40 #HPW

I signed up for Fountain premium and was awarded by error messages and not being able to subscribe anymore. Top tier UX! I like the reference to the Black Mirror episode of the attack dogs. I mentioned that on a boost a while back. Might have been a different show I was boosting. One of my favorite episodes of that show (and most terrifying)

Some balls are held for charity And some for fancy dress But when they're held for pleasure They're the balls that I like best

We all know @npub1563z6kxmv… is the best but what is the best episode of Bugle weekly? @npub1s4t5da3x5… and @npub1hcf3acvqk… what are your favorite episodes? I want to relisten to some old bangers! #40hpw

Boost!

High entropy sources of cultural capital are more important than ever.

The Entropy Crisis is pushing us towards Entropyism.

Man cannot live on glaze alone #40HPW🎧

I can’t believe Fundamentals was on this show and y’all didn’t even read my boost! I think Fountain removed me as a subscriber - I guess I need to fix that.... I also didn’t expect a conversation about “unfamiliar footwear” but I’m here for it!

If @npub12eml5kmtr… is a credentialed journalist, @npub1563z6kxmv… should hire him. Hope everyone appreciates this episode as much as I do.

I will spend the rest of my days searching for the mother of all nodes. #40hpw

I am sometimes naked whilst listening to podcasts.

Have fun at Lake Satoshi! Sorry I won't be there this year! 😢

Y’all need a diabetic advisor? Lemme know, I’ll be your Wilford Brimley... I expect I’ll have 1776 mosquito bites by July 3rd and then 2026 total by July 4th when the fireworks end! Place your bets!

If you're not listening to @npub1563z6kxmv… , I highly recommend it. I look forward to every episode. #40hpw starts with Bugle Weekly podcast. What are some of the top pods in your queues?

250 mosquito bites on the 4th or you’re a gay fed.

Given my situation, I am considering renting glaze (even if it's at a loss) to make sure enough glaze is directed towards what I believe in.

🤣🤣🤣

Happy gayyyyyyyyyyyy month

I like the reference to Iris by Goo Goo Dolls! Keep up the good work boys!

@npub1emdtsxly9… dealt the death blow in my maxi madness matchup against Jack Dorsey. I held the lead for the majority of the round but burned all my social capital early on leaving me vulnerable to Robs maxi boost of 21k. I had fun and according to @npub1s4t5da3x5… the true winners are the ones having the most fun so take that giggler.

Hey! No matter what anyone else is saying... I'm really proud of you guys! Keep up the good work!

Let’s FUCKING go 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

🤣👍🏻🫡

I love the idea that if the mission to the moon was a failure they were ready to fake it. That makes a lot of sense as there is so much evidence suggesting both are true. We went to the moon and we also faked it.

Great rip - AI to deal with woke HR departments 😎

Mid and upper models of Flair Espresso maker are plastic free in the brewing areas and around $400-500. Tradeoff is it’s manual but that is just more proof of work. Pair with a metal hot water kettle and you’re all set.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

🙏🔥💯🥰🚬🫡

Bitcoin And... Is how I stay in the loop. Essential listening for the #40hpw

They don’t expect us to go back in to save as many as we can. That’s exactly how pioneers win. #40HPW🎧

This episode was full of excellent quotes from David! First I want to address when he accidentally said “Bitcaster” which is something I was thinking about lately instead of saying “Bitcoin Podcaster” - Imagine how many extra Bitcasts you can squeeze in during your 40 HPW if you don’t have to say the full “Bitcoin Podcast” term! Another quote: “I wake up and look at Twitter and I'm in a bad mood. Wake up looking at Nostr I'm neutral” And this quote was the best: “If the first thing you see in the morning is a Penis Dorter Nothing-Burger then you become the nothing burger!”

Notre Dame's helmets are painted in gold. As gold demonetizes, then Bitcoin fixes this and ND will have to forgo the paint to stack sats!
