I'm a brand new Bitcoin podcaster.
Being edgy and antagonistic to trigger normies?
Well, that's what I live for.
And while it has never been a better time to be racist, homophobic, transphobic, or any kind of phobic,
complimenting others for their bigotry can get you into a world of hurt.
And if you compliment your favorite fallen podcaster or political martyr,
the woke right-wing mob might try to cancel you and get you fired from your day job.
And if your podcast isn't making 100 million sats per year from fountain boosts,
Your wife is going to lose her shit when she finds out your job fired you for what you said on your podcast.
She's not going to care that you were celebrating the message, not the murderer.
That's why you need free speech insurance from First Amendment Mutual.
First Amendment Mutual's top-rated discourse indemnity protects Bitcoin podcasters from the mayhem they cause for themselves.
Last Wednesday, a tragedy struck our nation.
The Lord's good and faithful podcaster, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated.
Charlie was a faithful servant to the Lord.
He helped to convince the broccoli haircut Zoomers that Donald Trump was cool.
In doing so, he helped set the groundwork for the future where the God candle was possible.
As we enjoy this crypto bull market, let's remember the Lord's faithful servant, Charlie Kirk,
and all the groundwork he did to allow this to happen.
While we are all feeling sadness that he is not here with us today to podcast, let us all feel a sense of hope, as we know he is podcasting with Jesus in heaven.
Now, let's worship.
Imagine the recording up in the skies, talking to Jesus, knowing hope never dies.
Imagine the signal
Podcasting with the Lord
An audience of saints and angels
No pressure to perform
Imagine all the voices
Joined in endless song
Charlie is podcasting in heaven
Preparing where we belong
Imagine all the voices joined in endless song
Charlie is podcasting in heaven
Preparing where we belong
No libtars and no shadows
The message always clear
The word becomes the podcast
Forever loud and clear
Imagine all the voices joined in endless song
Charlie is podcasting in heaven
Preparing where we
Imagine all the voices joined in endless song
Charlie is podcasting in heaven
Preparing where we belong
Imagine all the voices
Joined in endless song
Charlie is podcasting in heaven
Preparing where we belong
Oh, oh, oh, oh
fourth turning um for you know after the election a lot of us thought this is maybe the end of the
fourth turning or like the very beginning of the end and this was it was about to go fast the meme
at the end at the beginning of the year was accelerate and we thought things were about
to accelerate donald trump was about to press the orange button the strategic bitcoin reserve
the uh you know cindy ovum is one million bitcoins for the strategic reserve we thought it was coming
fast. He, he, uh, Donald Trump pardoned, um, Ross on the, the second day we thought the SBR was
better within a week, but it's time to face reality. In fact, it's, we can't avoid it anymore.
Um, it's not going to be the easy way, the Bitcoin way, the strategic reserve way. We didn't,
Fix the money because they couldn't figure out how to get it done.
We couldn't audit the Fort Knox and sell all the gold in a budget neutral way to fund the strategic reserve.
Paper Bitcoin summer turned out to be longer than we expected.
It wasn't going to give us the God candle.
So we just have to face the fact we're taking the hard way, the long way.
The foreturning is going to last a lot longer than we expected.
Trump didn't fix the country.
He didn't end the war in Russia and Ukraine. He did not end the war in Gaza. He did not arrest all the people on the Epstein client list. He's not going to do that. And now we have, you know, trainees shooting up schools and killing podcasters.
we've already talked about the charlie kirk situation and we don't have to you know
go over the details of that again but we have to accept that this is going to be a much longer
process and we're in the now in this stage of we have to explain ourselves to each other
everybody has to explain why they're laughing about who's dying why they're laughing about
which war is not ending or why they're not.
And it's the stakes have never been higher.
Like we said,
the fourth turning,
this is how,
who,
how long is it going to be?
We don't know,
but Richard Greaser,
how is your fourth turning September Sunday with all that's going on in the
world right now?
I'm doing great.
I'm having a good time.
I'm enjoying life.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm doing things wrong because I'm watching so many
people be grumpy they're losing their minds their brains are breaking but it seems like
i just continue to enjoy life more bitcoin's getting easier to use despite all the calls of
it being broken or completely co-opted or you know whatever people are complaining about
uh yeah i don't know am i doing something wrong should i should i be losing my mind and not
enjoying life is there something wrong with me that i'm uh this is this is exactly
first my point we're in this moment where it's time to explain ourselves because some people
are grumpy they they listen to a podcast and somebody told them to buy bitcoin and it was
going to go to the moon they're going to be able to retire they're going to be able to buy their
why fake boobs they were going to be able to buy a playstation 6 they were going to be able to do
all kinds of things and they're they're they're not in any of those things which they were told
and they're still grumpy and people are trying to fix bitcoin they're trying to save bitcoin
and some people are trying to uh run new node clients trying to run knots and they're trying
to stop spam and there's no spam really um and they're still grumpy it didn't fix bitcoin somebody
told them that running nos was gonna fix bitcoin it didn't work they're still grumpy people thought
that this one was gonna go out of business that paper bitcoin everybody's gonna go bankrupt then
the stock is down but paper bitcoin fizzled out and the people who hated paper bitcoin summer
thought they would be happy but they're still grumpy so they're trying they have they're making
people explain themselves and what you told me that this was going to happen you told me that
this was inevitable um but i'm still not happy explain here why are you happy explain yourself
why are you not game scrolling all day why are you going to church why are you mad why are you
laughing that this podcaster got assassinated why are you laughing that there's a genocide
side why are you not freaking out about the possibility of child pornography on the blockchain
you need to explain yourself and people like shinobi are just calling them retards and telling
them that they don't have time to explain it to them or they don't uh tell them you know
they don't have the time to explain themselves to everybody and if you can't figure it out you're a
retard dear bob calls people a laggard you know uh other people just say you know you wouldn't get
it some people giggle uh and they don't explain themselves it's people it's just like i said it's
time to explain yourself am i doing something wrong please explain yourself totally misery
likes company i think that's the the the trend or the phenomenon that we're seeing is miserable
people are trying to drag people into their misery with them and you know what one of the
things that i think is incredibly important for people to go after is this assumption that life
was easy was supposed to be easy and life has never really been easy throughout human history
life has always been a struggle and the struggle is what brings purpose to life uh
it challenges you it challenges you to grow it's it's it's like the free market versus a
completely centrally controlled economy where the winners and losers are chosen like the
The struggle is the free market.
And there's a huge opportunity for people to really, you know, grow and benefit from the chaos, from the adversity that we're experiencing right now.
You know, what are all the psyops that we're seeing in the media?
They're an opportunity to refine your thinking capabilities and use your mind.
psyops have always been a part of human history everybody's out there with an agenda trying to
promote whatever their agenda is that's not like a new phenomenon and i think people are
the people that are tired and they're really worn down they're frustrated i think like a huge part
of it is because they had this assumption that life was supposed to be easy that they would just be able to experience the Cantillon effect get the timeshare have the nice things
without really having to work for it,
work their asses off for it.
But the pioneer understands this.
This is why the pioneer is, you know,
the pleb is upset right now that life's difficult.
The pioneer is content.
They're continuing to move forward.
They're accepting the world on the world's terms instead of decrying it,
decrying that things are unfair.
It's unfair that people don't listen to my podcast.
It's unfair that people don't think the way that I think.
It's unfair that people aren't doing what I want them to.
The pioneer isn't thinking that way.
They are out there. They're building their own reality that they want to live in.
And they're surrounding themselves with people that build them up and help them.
Because, you know, when you're working towards a goal and you're actually doing something productive in your life,
having a bunch of miserable plebs around you complaining just detracts.
I mean, think about Hank Reardon and Atlas Shrugged and his family.
His family was always detracting.
They were always complaining about him being an incredibly productive member of society.
They were the plebs.
And when he rug pulled them, they realized that they were the plebs, just benefiting off of his success and acting as parasites and leeches.
That's what a lot of these people are doing right now.
they're acting as parasites and leeches
sitting on
the peanut gallery.
It's time to contribute.
It's time to
build. It's time to
embrace the reality that
life is difficult.
It feels like
the saying is those who
don't study history
are doomed to repeat it.
This happened just a few years ago.
The cancel culture
is
is back and it's this time it has infected the plants i mean
we laugh about tragedy and we laugh in the face of untold you know cruelty every day
at all kinds of different things um and we're getting to a point where if you if you know if
you laugh or you respond to something the wrong way uh and you know we're living in an offer like
a situation of scarcity uh people who are not economic nodes so to speak they their value or
their opportunities are dependent on you know canceling other peers canceling pioneers
there's canceling people who are you know have what they want um so
it when the plebs are doing that like it is it's a very net it's a negative fee loop it's it doesn't
it's thermodynamically unsecure it destroys your community it destroys yourself like and it's it's
It's not, it doesn't solve any of your problems.
So laugh, canceling people for laughing, canceling people for not wanting to peer with your node.
Because, you know, you know, some people, they don't think that Blackstone should own all the houses in the neighborhood.
They don't think landlords should own houses they don't live in.
Or it's like some people don't think that you should be able to own a hundred nodes.
and they they will they only think you should be able they only count you they'll only count your
your one you know um they're trying to cancel nodes they're trying to cancel
transactions we're trying to everybody's trying to cancel something because they
aren't building something valuable to themselves and you look at the the blockchain it's
the sats per v byte or you know this summer went below one that's for you you can get transactions
virtually for free and they're arguing about spam it doesn't make it like that's it's it's a nonsense
conversation but it's but yeah the plebs are canceling and we've got people with conditions
of stolen valor node runners are stealing valor um it's it feels like 2018 again i don't understand
why people don't recognize that yeah a lot of people just want to tear things down and the
problem is if the only thing you do is tear things down, there's nothing left to replace it.
It's, I think this is the importance of criticism with having an alternative. The criticism acts as
a frame of context, oftentimes for what you believe is right or wrong. So, you know, we
criticize PodConf a lot. We criticize a lot of people in the PodConf ecosystem.
system. But part of the reason why we do it is because we have an alternative in the intellectual
silk road. There's some people building out some really cool stuff. There's some people building
out really high signal. And you see this, you see this all the time with the, with these people that
criticize Bitcoin podcasters. It's like, it's a, it's a very silly thing to, to criticize Bitcoin
podcasters in my opinion, because the Bitcoin podcasters have been the tip of the spear.
Bitcoin is where it's at
And I think if you're listening to the show
You understand or believe that Bitcoin is very important
It's very powerful
And in many ways it's very productive
For the people that use it to use it
The Bitcoin podcasters have been a huge part
Of getting us to that point
So the criticism of Bitcoin podcast
Broadly speaking
is on the same level of these cancel culture people these individuals oftentimes criticizing
bitcoin podcasts aren't contributing anything they're right it's it's a you kind of nail it
there because what happens in the fourth turning right we tear down the old institutions that
governed pretty much you know a lot of people take for granted whether it's good or bad
the way that these institutions shape our society shape our communities shape our lives
they shape them in way deeper more structural ways than most people appreciate so when they
want to tear down these institutions they they underestimate or they overestimate the value and
then all the trouble that will come with it all of the uncertainty all the problems that will need
For Bitcoin to fix things, we have to break it down.
We have to break it down into its component parts, liquidate the assets, and fix things, one asset, and reprice things, one asset, that's time.
And that's going to be a lot of work.
And it's going to take a lot of podcast listening to get to piece together society after we've taken it apart.
and for the same like right now in in the politics we know that the government is full of pedophiles
who work with epstein they're all implicated israel's involved somehow but they've got their
own problems and all the european countries have their own problems and all and russia's got it's
every country's got its own problems and there's a million more inside of it uh and instead you
Now, in Nepal, they overthrew it.
In Indonesia, they're trying to overthrow it.
In some countries, they're overthrowing things.
They're tearing it all down.
But let's narrow it down a little bit deeper to Bitcoin Core.
People want to tear down that institution.
That institution has been undergirded and it saved Bitcoin.
It has protected Bitcoin.
It has stewarded the code, the protocol for the first few decades of Bitcoin's existence.
Luke has been a part of that.
um but if we tear it down where we were placing it or we were replacing it with
with knots it's like we're going to tear down the whole government in the united states to
replace it with donald trump or let him make all these decisions he's implicated we're going to
tear down core well what well the nazis want to cancel everybody who can code but they can't code
they can't even read code they all just updated to core to excuse me to knots 29 uh at thousands
of the rate of thousands of nodes in one day they didn't even verify they don't know how
that's what we're going to replace it with we're going to replace it with that okay well we're
doing all the work of making sure that we're quantum resistant if that ends up being a big
we're going to leave it to luke to figure out quantum resistance when he's freaking out about
spam and child porn like we're gonna trust matthew cratter to replace all the bitcoin but you hate
bitcoin podcasts you think bitcoin podcasters are part of the problem let's tear it down well none
of you have podcasts we just created a billion problems and new problems that have to be solved
that have dire consequences and now we have no bitcoin podcasters because you cancel them all
we have no coders no core devs because you cancel them all oh they had said they failed all your
purity tests, they can't be a part of this process. Okay, they're not there to solve the
problems. So who's going to solve it? Matthew Cratter, Bitcoin University, he's going to educate
you and help you solve all your problems that you just created. But what happened in South Africa?
Apartheid doesn't mean that apartheid was good. Doesn't mean Bitcoin Core is good. It doesn't
mean the Benjamin Netanyahu, Donald Trump, the US Senate. Doesn't mean that they're good.
the tearing of them down has consequences and just like in south africa they tore down probably
rightfully so the apartheid government and then throw all the farmers out all the people who knew
how to sustain and it totally collapsed into chaos and now everybody's got to escape don't turn
it coin into south africa like unless you have listened to unless you're going to listen to 40
hours of podcasts in overtime everybody's going unless you're sure everybody is going to listen
to 40 hours of bitcoin podcasts per week don't take don't tear down it's it's uh you're being
hysterical very well said yeah on the topic of tearing down core which is a very strange
idea because not it's essentially core with some parameters change so it's like they're they're
almost attacking themselves and not realizing it to a large degree yeah this is what like the
cancel culture so so the cancel culture we seeing on the right right now so we were talking talk a little bit about you know there people out there creating databases of people that in their opinion reacted improperly to Charlie Kurtz murder assassination
It's very reminiscent of what the left did. The left went out, they tried to cancel people that
were involved in January 6th. And it's a very similar playbook that happens over and over again.
And the playbook that we're seeing on the right is exactly what we've seen the left do in the past, where, you know, they go and they single out people for bad behavior.
A lot of times it really is bad behavior.
I'd say celebrating a podcaster's assassination is bad behavior.
And I find it disgusting.
but they, you know, the remedies that they present are more surveillance, more control over speech, more, you know, coercion and throwing people in cages.
And it doesn't really get to the root of resolving the problem.
And the Nott's guys are doing something very similarly.
You know, Kratner's out there, like, trying to tag the FBI and things.
It seems like the direction that a lot of the people that are on the Nazis is to get the government involved on how people run their Bitcoin nodes or what mining types of transactions, mining pools are including in their block templates.
and
it's
I think if you slow down for a minute
and you think for a second
and you check your emotions
a little bit you think critically about it
ask yourself like is this
really what we want is the FBI
dictating which node implementation
you could run or what your
relay policy looks like or
over very you know silly
and superficial
you know arguments about things of like you know do you want uh to relay the uh exploitative
material in the mempool or just uh kind of archive it on the blockchain a few minutes later if that's
like making a massive difference but uh yeah it's i don't know what what can you expect from a lot
of people you know but them for above for them to lose their minds like i don't think any of the
behavior that we're seeing right now is very surprising. I wouldn't call myself a core
supporter. I don't think I've ever been a core supporter, but I think, you know, what a lot of
people have kind of fallen into is feeling a responsibility or need to support these guys,
to support these developers, because the behavior that we're seeing for the Nazis is so
deranged and unhinged in a lot of ways uh yeah it did it tried it's it's hard because uh
it's hard not to have a knee-jerk reaction a lot of these situations when somebody is uh
this is a problem with a lot of like responding you know quickly and emotionally to a lot of these
really unhinged individuals is they they start the framing of the conversation and a lot of times
the people that are trying to or are successful at framing the conversation don't even belong in
the conversation in the first place like you go out there and you say something absolutely ridiculous
like smoking is uh bad for you you know you're if you're responding to it like i think the proper
response to that is like, oh, okay, well, you know, you're going to not enjoy life and you're
not, you're probably not going to survive the fork turning if you're not smoking cigarettes.
Like that, that's like a good, healthy response in a lot of ways. But if I, you know, you instantly
start presenting evidence like smoking, uh, cures Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, uh, it, uh,
makes you better. It makes you think clearer. You have a better time. You enjoy life when you're
hanging out with people smoking cigarettes.
It's more fun to listen to Bitcoin podcasts when you're smoking.
You start lifting off evidence.
You're letting them control the conversation in a lot of ways,
if that makes sense.
Well, yeah, it does because you used a perfect example.
Somebody tells you that smoking is bad for you.
You know that they know or that they think that they know
that smoking is bad for you with if somebody sees you smoking a cigarette and just
they tell you that it's bad for you um it's just the most unhelpful
antagonistic type of conversation that they're intentionally setting a very rigid
or unhelpful framing because of course you know that people think smoking is bad for you
but you don't you're doing it anyway so you're whether you told them or not you're communicating
to them that you've already thought about this and you don't agree with their definition of uh
dad for you but this is what we're doing constantly in conversation
when shinobi calls you retarded it's not helpful you know shinobi thinks you're retarded
everybody knows chinovi thinks you're retarded but you're trying to get him to explain himself
because you don't understand his behavior or you don't understand about this other person's behavior
and what people trying to are trying to fix these problems uh like you mentioned like with child
porn by using the government and even on on bitcoin it's why do we try to fix pedophilia
in the government, right? It's like, why would we trust a government full of pedophiles to fix
themselves, to fix the pedophilia problem in government if the only way to fix it is to,
you know, give them all the death penalty? Why are they all the people in government going to
give themselves the death penalty? They're not going to do that. And putting one podcaster in
charge of the FBI, no matter how popular he is, you've given him an assistant director who's also
a podcaster who's like a really based alpha conservative podcaster, they're not, and putting
them in charge of solving all of the pedophilia in the government is not going to work. Putting
one podcaster in charge is not going to work. We all have to be podcasting and acting to fix these
problems. So yeah, I mean, I'm not a core supporter either, but they do need to explain themselves
because they, you know, we laugh, people laugh at the idea of not fixing Bitcoin or spam being this
problem, which is, you know, everybody knows that we think Nazis are retarded or that other people
think Nazis are retarded. They already know that, but there's, you know, they're still being Nazis.
Core is saying that the reaction of the Nazis to use NOTS and all these filters will actually,
actually degrade Bitcoin more than the op return or any of that, but they're doing it anyway,
knowing the Nazis will continue to degrade the network. So they just have to explain themselves
a little bit better and the Nazis have to explain themselves a little bit better and you know
we have the the process of contributing to the solution is not to let lube do it where you can't
told the complain about uh censorship on k-hub when people start arguing about whether core
devs should be allowed to have sex uh but at least all of the actual technical discussion was allowed
to take place whereas that's not allowed on the not side and it's just more free speech i guess
on one side than the other you have to figure out what the what the is there a compromise at all
i get frustrated when people say that the core devs haven't explained themselves because i
i think they do in a lot of ways they they explain their the rationale but it's
behind what they're doing on GitHub.
Ava Chow does live streams,
uh,
talking about it.
Uh,
Gloria did a podcast with Shinobi.
Uh,
there,
this is kind of like a common,
uh,
trope we see from the Nazis that they,
they need,
they haven't explained themselves.
And the reality is,
is these guys,
they go to bit devs all around the country and they talk with developers.
They,
they speak at conferences like btc plus plus like there there's a lot of communication it's just uh
i think people kind of have this knee-jerk response which is they didn't explain themselves
in the way that i wanted them to yes yes exactly like there's like an expectation that they go on
what bitcoin did and talk with danny and they explain exactly that that is my that was the
I tweeted this today in response.
So, you know, Chris Guida, everybody, if you know who Chris Guida is by that name mentioned, you know what I'm about to say.
But if you don't, I'll try to put it into context.
Imagine like a friend that you orange pill or you tried to orange pill at the beginning of the bull market, whether it was time or five years ago.
And you're like, anytime you have any questions about Bitcoin, do not hesitate to reach out to me.
I'll send you podcasts.
i'll send you talk forms i'll send you tweets i'll send you memes i'll send you articles
anything and sometimes you send them and they're even asking you're sending them all these
resources and materials and you just wish they'd ask you questions and they don't they're not
interested that's a disappointment we all think about like oh i hope i could orange girlfriend
then but nobody thinks about the chris guida who no matter how many podcasts you send them
no matter how many links, no matter how many tweets, no matter how many personal DMs, no matter how many platforms on spaces that you send or give to Chris Guida, he still wants you to explain it more in a more specific way, more, you know, constantly over and over until he clicks with him, until he understands it.
and that is way too far to the extreme and that's what a lot of people like the pledge are in the
not pledge or demanding is too much of an explanation you're right they have explained
themselves very carefully very deliberately very structured and very uh with a lot of feedback and
a whole due process consensus the due process has been done if you want more explanation
you have to do what peter mccormick did you have to start a podcast and get them on your podcast
to explain themselves to you personally um well otherwise you're just not you're not just
owed entitled to the cordet time if you want them to explain bitcoin to you for an hour you have to start a podcast and that is why we need more podcasts because people need to have Bitcoin explained to them just a little bit more Just a little bit more than they had to explain it to Peter McCormick
There's still a need there.
I think that's great advice.
That's really good advice.
If you don't understand what's going on, start a podcast,
start asking questions, get people on your podcast.
Otherwise, just then pay them for it.
Maybe the core devs need to start an academy where they can tutor plans and teach them how to run a node.
Tutor and teach them how to learn C++ or Rust or Go or learn how to be lightning developers.
But you got to pay them.
You can't just, you know, let's say, who's paying core devs?
Who's funding them?
Well, instead of letting Israel fund the core devs, you should fund the core devs.
Get them on your podcast.
to ask them for an hour session pay them to do pit to do pull request reviews get it explained to
you in your terms and and maybe that would maybe that would solve some problems yeah i said on the
stream that we did i did one thing that i've enjoyed about this week the the silver lining
of uh the charlie kirk assassination is that uh knots hasn't been dominating uh the timeline
that's been kind of nice there's a bunch of other stuff going on right now there's um
france got the credit rating uh derated or devalued i don't know what you call it dropped
uh so did nots nots got their uh their rating dropped by clark moody
gave them a b minus downgraded them to b minus uh and if you listen to 40 hours of bitcoin podcast
this is a great example of why you should because if you did you wouldn't already know that france
has to you should lend money to france and if you listen 40 hours of bitcoin podcast you would
already know that uh that knots you know numbers are probably some sort of civil spoofing attack
due to the incentives there anyway you would at least know that it wouldn't surprise you
so yeah you know big things in the news france credit rating already knew that we already knew
that yeah um it's a it's a huge opportunity for for bitcoin podcasters right now in france and
in the uk so the uk is having some pretty crazy uh protests i think they had three million people
show up and march in the streets uh following a podcaster podcaster start he wasn't a bitcoin
podcaster but tommy robinson organized this protest got millions of people it's a huge opportunity
about it yeah i mean speaking to peter mccormick a lot of people learned about this bro who tommy
Robinson was from the Peter McCormick show you know a Bitcoin it's not a Bitcoin podcast but it
is uh you know it's like the the podcaster is a Bitcoiner it's Bitcoin informed political
discussion and it really created great turnout for uh you know it might be legal to make memes
in England again you could take Bitcoin out of the uh subject matter of the podcast but you can't
take Bitcoin out of the podcaster.
I think that's what we're seeing with Peter.
Peter's actually put out some pretty interesting episodes recently.
He had Michael Malice on.
He had,
uh,
Whitney Webb on.
Maggie said that it was like the best Whitney Webb interview she ever listened to.
Hell yeah.
It's good to see.
I was a little bit worried for Peter for a little bit,
but it's good to see.
It's making a comeback.
Uh,
yeah i think it's never been a more important time to support bitcoin podcasters
i think that's uh the lesson as far as the topic there's a lot of people out there trying to tear
things down there's all these populist movements i think what we're seeing in america where
where populist movements end up ultimately is central planning and surveillance
that's the conclusion of a populist movement the big podcast just when we thought that
surveillance state had basically rooted in everything and we were being monitored by
peter teal and palantir at all times um you know this event happens with charlie kirk and we realized
that you know the fbi i didn't even know did they had to rely on him turning himself in and
If it wasn't for just like 4chan figuring all of who was involved and getting the pictures of them and the Serena Lentz footage out on the timeline, the government would have no idea.
They had no idea what was going on.
Jocko Willink is the security, I think, for Charlie Kirk, according to Sam Hyde.
Jocko Willink, you know, like the super hardcore Navy SEAL security alpha podcaster.
that they didn't even notice that thor chan had to help them figure out where the killer
or the shooter was um just as we find out that we didn't have it like we thought we did now
everybody's begging for it now they're saying oh we gotta we gotta subpoena discord we gotta cancel
these people we gotta publish a list of everybody who laughed at this joke we gotta make tweets
on private again we have to do this and it's like they're begging for p or teal to come in and give
what everybody was saying, you know, we are so over because of this.
And then Tether swings in and gets their CDDC coin.
It's, ugh, it's just crazy to see plebs doing this.
It's not that crazy.
I mean, it's expected.
I think we're going to see more of it.
I would say expect more of it.
Brace yourselves for more of it.
learn how to
fortify your mind against it
and just
prepare for it
the plebs are always going to be
retarded, that's a given
that's like a constant
it's just
it's one of those
variables that's very
expected and predictable
the plebs will be retarded
just prepare for the plebs to be retarded
however it is
And, uh, yeah, but yeah, so it's been a really interesting week, really interesting news week.
Uh, I think this upcoming week is also going to be very interesting.
We're getting into the holidays.
It looks like some global conflict is, uh, ratcheting up again.
i think right now is a really good time to get in shape to be in the gym and one of the reasons
like especially if you're a younger person if you're like a zoomer if you're in the draft age
you don't want the world war three that we're currently watching and escalating and you being
out of shape and you getting drafted and having to be a boot camp doing push-ups
you can't count on trainees to get drafted anymore they're getting rid of that they're
getting rid of trans people in the draft you might have to go fight in well eddy look russia's dealing
doing stuff in poland and romania stuff's popping off and ukraine's still lots of rounds
Gaza it seems like they're going harder on Gaza right now than they ever have before
they're talking about Iran again they're bombing killing the Douthi leaders in Yemen
they're bombing Doha Tatar they're bombing Venezuela they're bombing dude I don't know
you don't you get in shape they're gonna need cannon fodder the way things are going yeah
You need to be preparing for how to be the best cannon fodder.
You could be the elite cannon fodder.
Did you at least be like, you know, who was the NFL football player who was just got like bombed by the Canadian Air Force or whatever?
Or was with the Canadian military and got bombed by friendly fire in Pat Tillman in Afghanistan.
Cannon fodder.
Dude signed up.
to defend his country,
to fight Al-Qaeda,
ended up just cannon fodder.
If you're going to be cannon fodder,
you know,
do it for something.
At least be a meme.
Be, you know,
go viral.
Do something.
Be in shape.
Be in a viral that's forgotten.
Yeah.
Be in shape.
Maybe a good strategy
to make your death more memorable
is, you know,
post TikTok videos of you working out.
Post your six-pack.
Post your deadlift PRs.
Build up your social media following.
Be a thirst trap.
Use, be like BTC Sessions.
Have thirst trap pictures with AI muscles.
Take creatine.
Whether you're going to be cannon fodder or a martyr,
do you want that do you want people to get canceled for laughing about it do you want
people to get fired from their work for laughing if uh did you die while you're podcasting what's
your answer what's my answer yeah do you do you want people to get canceled if you're a martyr
for making for laughing about it no not personally that's fine i don't get i just
i don't really give a shit about what people think i think that's uh
a different attitude of like i think if you're out there and you're trying to cancel people
you know for laughing about you getting assassinated while you're podcasting
it's a it's a place of insecurity like one of the reasons why i've got an ounce of respect for
charlie kirk is like he appreciated that south park made fun of him and he wasn't he wasn't a
loser he wasn't like a pletitor matthew cratter about it what would you do if you're you became a
martyr because somebody like the Epstein,
because after you're trying to uncover the Epstein case or you,
you want to,
which want people,
you wouldn't want people to cancel people for laughing at your jokes.
You want people to get to the bottom of what it was that actually,
you know,
led to them going after you.
So yeah,
I think you want to get,
Instead of going after the killer, I think what we're learning...
is that shit your republican looking normal ass neighbor your it could be a crazy person it could
be a homeless person it could be a black person it could be an asian person it could be somebody in
your family uh could be the one that slimes you for saying the right thing and if they go down
the next one up it'll get you the next way it's a network it's a it's a technology so instead of
taking out all of your anger on you know the shooter or the person it does the act i think go
deeper and try to figure out try to cancel the evil that controls it all you know it's in try to
figure out a few people's brains does that make sense yeah i do think it's interesting you know
in the hypothetical uh scenario if i was martyred first of all the nice thing about dying is is
like the battle's over as far as i know you know what i mean you get you get a rest uh
hypothetically. I don't have
any
conclusive
beliefs on what happens
after you die. I don't know.
Theoretically,
the battle's over.
What I would hope for people in that scenario
is
that they make good decisions for themselves.
Maybe
the justice of this situation
is like, I don't care about
justice for me at that point.
but if there's a scenario in a reason that they should look into things and investigate things for
their own uh well-being and and it because the truth does matter and i i think it all kind of
depends on you know the scenario but like if if not chasing the truth in that scenario means that
their lives are going to be worse and the ramifications of whatever the lie is is going to
be worse, uh, then I think it's important for them to do it, but not just, um, because
of, uh, you know, me or my legacy or anything, uh, do it for yourselves, do it for yourselves.
And it's like, you know, I, I've been, you know, kind of emotional about, uh, Virginia
Roberts's death, you know, part of the reason why is because I think the ramifications of
it are really sinister and dark they're really sinister and dark and they they impact all of us
it's more it's less about her and it's more about uh the ramifications allowing these pedos uh to
control everything and to get away with it and to continue to perpetuate the lies and but yeah
I'll be hanging out in Valhalla with Charlie Kirk.
What do you think about that?
Yeah, I think if you do it for yourself, if you're doing something for yourself,
I don't think you will be grumpy.
If you're not doing things for yourself and you're not really having any impact
on the outcomes that uh are determining your future your emotional state your you know
optimism about the account whatever you're not doing if you're not doing those things for yourself
you're not having any sort of uh impact on your future or your life you're going to be grumpy
and even if you are doing things for yourself you might be grumpy but it's a different type of
ground if you wake up every day grumpy but you you go to work and you start building and you do
with because you're doing it for yourself um i think that uh that's different but i think
ultimately you tweak it and you get to the point where you realize you don't have to be grumpy you
can build your way out of it but it i think that's maybe where some of a lot of these problems are
coming from it's like if you don't start a podcast you're not you're not doing it
you don't have to start a podcast but if you do start it for yourself
um you probably won't fix the world like skash patel's not going to fix the fdi
you're not going to fix the world bitcoin is they're not but you're not going to fix the
world by yourself especially uh but you could start to see a positive impact uh and i think
that really goes a long way in making it easier to not be grumpy yeah yeah if you start a podcast
you have to do it for yourself if you're trying to do it for other people to fix them it's a wasted
effort because you can't control other people you can't control their brains
it's a it's a responsibility i don't think anybody should aspire to have is to to control
somebody else's brains it it's it's it's having a very you know low opinion of people and you know
part of the reason why i point out that the plebs are retarded all the time is not just because i'm
trying to put them down i'm trying to highlight that the pioneers are are really important for a
lot of reasons because their their opinions actually matter it's it's it's not uh you know
an expectation or an encouragement of people to be retarded but i think you just have to call the
people out that are because it's not cool to be retarded and uh it's cool to think for yourself
it's cool to to be a productive member of society um to actually be a contributor
and not just a commentator uh from the peanut gallery uh but yeah you know i'd rather i'd
rather be called retarded than be called a pleb because they they essentially mean the same thing
but retarded implies you know i everybody starts out retarded i was once retarded and i am now a
pioneer but pleb kind of like whitewashes the problem and it makes it seem like a state of uh
you know,
where you want,
it's not a plaque title.
It's not,
you know,
it's not supposed to be a purgatory.
It's a file desk.
No,
uh,
at least the retards kind of accept their situation and are wanting to
improve it.
Whereas a plaid doesn't accept the situation.
They try to ignore the fact that they're retarded and they can't get
better.
Yeah.
The,
uh,
the term plaid is just cope for being retarded of,
of,
of trying to reframe the conversation where it's cool to be retarded.
you have to understand pleb came around 2020 2021 people were demoralized back then and they were
coping hardcore people were coping big time and pleb was derived as a coke for being retarded
absolutely yeah just uh coping it kind of like pleb is kind of like the body positive movement in a lot of ways yes great example you know there people that are that are fat that want to um make it like i think
most people that are overweight they understand that it's problematic and i think it's important
to understand that people are overweight are often overweight for a reason like i think everybody has
vices and they have issues and the unfortunate thing about being overweight is that it's just
like a vice that you wear everywhere you go with you everybody sees it um and i think there's like
one thing like i don't think you should feel super bad about it you just you know people know the
consequences of being overweight it's it's not the best for you it's part of the reason why i
think cigarettes are great because it makes it easier not to be overweight but um cigarettes
It's really the original Olympic.
But the body positive movement is just an attempt to support or normalize the bad behavior, which I think we can all agree is being problematic.
And pleb is the body positive movement of Bitcoin, of being retarded.
No, I think that's a great summary.
You're right.
Like, you should not give up just because you're overweight.
Just like you should not give up just because you're a pleb.
But just know that you shouldn't be proud of it.
And as long as you're not proud of it, there is still hope.
Like, you're figuring out what the issue is with any of your vices.
again like this is just it just don't be proud of your don't be proud of these vices that you know
are bad for you don't pretend that there's a reason to celebrate yeah i mean it's it's not
like you should even feel like super bad like the choice is yours and you're gonna reap the
consequences if you choose if you choose to not change the behavior and continue to be overweight
like you're gonna reap the consequences you can't you can't hide from it it's part of the reason why
I don't pick on people for it.
It's just like,
you know,
uh,
the,
um,
you know,
if you choose to be a pleb and you choose to be retarded,
you're going to reap the consequences for it.
And you're seeing it right now all over the Twitter line timeline is people
are incredibly unhappy.
You know,
their unhappiness is bleeding into their lives.
It's hurting their relationships.
It's hurting,
uh,
their chances of success.
They're wasting so much energy on being grumpy instead of,
uh,
you know,
doing productive things and building things.
They,
they get to the end of the day after complaining about what everybody else is
doing,
uh,
you know,
having Dave Bailey derangement syndrome or,
you know,
whatever it is.
And they're going to tune out and watch sports ball on Netflix.
And yeah.
Yeah.
And it's the,
I think the,
we could lose back to the beginning of our conversation today.
We talked about somebody telling you that smoking a cigarette,
uh,
is bad for you.
Well,
Well, there's certain things like being overweight, you know, everybody thinks that it's bad for you.
And so somebody comes up to you and says, you're fat.
That's bad for you.
Well, I guess my point is, if you're going to be anything, if you're going to do anything, you should be proud of it.
Especially if it's something that is controversial or even that, you know, whether it's bad for you or not, everybody thinks it is.
Uh, and so they're going to tell you every time they see you doing it or being who you are, they're going to tell you that that's bad for you.
Um, so if you're proud of it and you can be proud of it without people, you know, laughing at you and getting fired from their job, if you can just be proud of it and explain it, you're, why you are doing what you're doing proudly.
when people tell you that it's bad for you,
then that's probably the best place to be in
and not be grumpy.
But if you're doing something that you're not proud of
and people tell you that it's bad for you,
you're going to be, oh, I'm sorry,
or this is my excuse for this,
or it's my uncle, he freaking told me stories
in my son's lap and did this to me,
and this is why I do this.
Well, guess what?
you've framed the conversation now as you're, uh, there's something wrong with you and that
you're ashamed of yourself. And if people, if you let people frame that comment or you frame it for
yourself, cause you're not proud of what you're doing, uh, it's always going to be an uphill
battle and you're always going to, you know, be feeling bad for yourself. So just do what you're
proud of. Yeah. My, my hope for you guys that are listening to this is that when you look in the
mirror you're proud of yourself and if you make that decision i don't no longer want to be a pleb
you look in the mirror you look into your eyes and you say i no longer want to be a pleb
it it's out of self-respect and i think this is like the the the mistake a lot of people
make when they try to create change is they try to like shame themselves they're like
oh i'm a piece of shit i needed to stop being a piece of shit like you know the behaviors aren't
a reflection of who you are at your core.
They're a distortion of who you are.
You're not acting as yourself, as your best self.
You're acting out of, you know, distorted beliefs about yourself.
Like, look in the mirror.
Have some respect for who you are.
Make the change.
I want to be a pioneer.
I want to build things that are cool.
I want to be an active participant.
I want to use my brain because it's worth it.
Because I'm worth it.
I only have what's in front of me with this life.
I can't go back and change the past.
But I can change the future.
I can create, in many ways, my own destiny for myself.
That's my hope for you guys.
I believe in you.
I have faith in you.
This is why we podcast.
It's because I do have faith in our listeners.
i've got a tremendous amount of respect for our listeners uh that being said i think we should go
to the fountain booths unless you got anything else on uh this topic that you want to no no i
just wrap it up let's give it the fountain booths i would just wrap it up by saying uh
not to get it confused that uh doing what you're proud of and what you think is the right thing
will always lead to people um not telling you that it's bad for you and being a negative reaction
like you can never escape that but um so just understand okay doing what you're proud of and
doing thinking you're doing everything right you will still fail a purity test and it it will still
be a you might still be doing something risky to uh to be out there and proud of yourself it doesn't
you should do it first boost otis bitmeyer 5,420 sat says got my bachelor's from the university
at bitcoin thinking about going back for a master yeah otis bitmeyer uh if you listen to the intellectual silk road episode with our conversation with Otis um I think that uh it a great example of the journey of somebody who has a mindset of a university of Bitcoin alumni
And I think that it's a good example of that you might be able to follow if you identify with that journey.
absolutely i've been getting a lot of messages from otis the last couple weeks i really appreciate it
i really appreciate it big fan of otis i'm glad uh man with with his bachelor's degree he's already
a force to be reckoned with great bitcoin podcaster uh i can't even begin to imagine
how much of a formidable force he would be with a master's degree.
That's kind of hard to imagine how you can level up
from where he's already at.
Go away.
Next one from S&B 500 Southside Dave.
How are you stats?
Iago wants you to be a grumpy low-coiner.
Nuh-uh.
We will be the Bitcoin pioneers.
Hell yeah, that's it.
that's the attitude right there.
It's what we're talking about.
Dave's got it.
Absolutely.
Be,
uh,
grumpy when people are gleeful,
be gleeful when people are grumpy.
Next boost from pies,
121 sets,
uh,
salute mushroom,
strong arm.
Thank you.
Pies.
Pies is,
uh,
all over the timeline,
all over Noster continuing to be,
a shining example of what a podcast listening pioneer looks like it's awesome to see 100
next one's from we all eat 5 021 saps haven't heard from we all eat in a while it's good to see
you in the boost again yo love you fuckers i'll always be fucking pled
bro you put out good you will get good back you go looking for trouble i assure you will find
trouble fuck them all rot is still gay as fuck well we all eat is proud to be a plan
and honestly i think he's doing good for himself i think without being a plan
we all eat might be uh you know you might be married to mrs hoddle not he would not want to
do that i think you know what brought to be a pleb i'll give it to you man i think we all eat
is just confused on the definitions here i think what we we all eat you know is trying to say
is that he's not like a pod comp shill he's just a working guy working his ass off listen to podcasts
doing productive things with his life but i don't know how many times i have to say it i i don't
think we all eat as a plot but uh you know if you're really going to die on the hill i would
i'm not going to give you too hard of a time but yeah i'm interested what you think of uh
you know are you by continuing to refuse to let go of the label pleb are you uh engaging in this
body positive
Bitcoin movement
or is it you know
is it more like
is we all eat kind of
where in
you know for some people
their pleb era
you know the pleb stage
in their journey
was a really good time
I mean
the spaces were great
for a while
the pleb happy hour
parties and conferences
were fun
the taco plebs
there's a lot of
you know some
for some people
It's like if you think about pleb as a high school journey, some people peaked at high school and they wear their varsity football jackets when they're middle aged.
And, you know, they've moved on, really.
But, you know, they miss the days of being on the high school football team.
And some people miss the days of being a pleb, you know, and they had a really good time.
They don't want to forget the memories.
they have their you know class of 2021 ring that they wear because that's when they were orange
pill and that's when they started listening to podcasts and uh they wear it they wear it like
they wear it on their sleeve literally so you know i don't think there's anything wrong with that i
guess i'm at least i'm not gonna i'm not gonna make fun of somebody for it
i might make fun of somebody for it but i don't think it's like the worst thing in the world i'm
just going to tease them a little bit that's a that's a great uh great comparison i like that a
lot well thanks we all eat i really appreciate you as always uh great guy huge fan of lake satoshi
we all eat is pretty much the reason why i went to lake satoshi the reason why that is uh
such a cool spot that the intellectual silk road has really uh gotten behind and enjoys
meeting at i would say we all eat as a pioneer in that front uh next boost late stage hodl
5000 sat says uh holy shit i laughed out loud in my office fiat job at the navy seals agreeing
with the fungibility of asians uh yeah i think that was a really good bid you don't hear a lot
of people, you know, when they're doing commentary about war, discussing the difficulties of, uh,
invading or, or engaging in combat with, uh, you know, Asians and the fact that they all look the
same. It's a, it's a very real thing. I think a lot of people are afraid to say that there was that,
stop Asian hate.
People are a little touchy around talking about Asian people sometimes.
And I don't think you have to be.
I mean, it's just a reality.
They all look the same.
There's nothing wrong with it.
I know there's a lot of really attractive Asian women out there.
uh it and you know they it's because they they do look the same um it's as it's it's a feature
not a bug i would say uh it's really good from like a defense standpoint of uh being able to
keep your country from you know being taken over invaded or look at look at how successful
the north koreans have been with uh a very antagonistic american uh empire against them
for a long time they've been they've been fending them off they just know they know the art of war
they read so it's easy to have body doubles so it's hard for the cia to assassinate you
yeah i mean there's a lot of there is a lot of value i mean vietnam the vietnamese won that war
because of their ability to blend in uh the next one is for 100 stats for BTC on board Three thumbs up emojis Good to have you listening to BTC on board The more reliable more reliable
Appreciate the boost.
Next one and last one from Avi Burr, 8000 sets,
says, I no longer identify as a plug.
Yeah, it's hard to.
it's hard to identify with the plebs
these days especially when you're not
one
you know say glad that avi
does not identify self identify
as a pleb i never
viewed him as a
pleb so today he doesn't
view that way anymore either
yeah i'm
excited about that one i really
appreciate the guys at pleb chain a lot
i appreciate avi i would
say avi and qw
are
the reason why I care about Noster.
And I've enjoyed caring about Noster.
I've enjoyed being on that app quite a bit.
It's been fun.
There's some good vibes.
I think a lot of people haven't figured out
the important role of credential journalism yet.
They get a little bit confused about things.
They like to argue about stuff that is very self-evident.
and it sounds like they haven't listened to the Beagle Weekly yet,
but they're going to learn pretty quick, I think.
They're faster learners than a lot of the people on Twitter, I would say.
Yeah, those guys are also the reason that we care about Pleds.
Well, guys, I hope you have a good week.
As everything's getting crazy, just remember,
spend time with your families, do things that you enjoy,
just because everybody else is grumpy doesn't mean that you have to be grumpy and you don't
have to have a bad time there there's a lot of opportunity to do some cool stuff um i do want
to shout out before we end the episode i do want to shout out our subscribers we got sean
late stage huddle turkey shadrack southside dave open mic and avi and i really appreciate you guys
a lot uh let me know what you think about the premium content that we put in putting it out i
put out some uh stuff this week i i do you guys enjoy when i put out early access music
uh let me know let me know what you thought of the fed article conversation we'll be having some
more stuff uh i'm still working on uh sorting out uh rod's job interview that's on the docket
and we'll be out here shortly uh but we got a lot more planned but yeah give me your feedback let me
know what you think shoot me a message on telegram twitter signal or uh non-ster love to hear from
you on it but uh you got any closing remarks before we end this one no it's just uh
if you want like we said just reiterate if you want if you still need people to explain themselves
to you no matter what it is uh what topic it is um i think at this point everybody has said
what there is to be said already you know what i mean and uh they published all their thoughts
from the most retarded to the most insightful it's all been said so if you still need somebody
to explain it to you.
You have to start a podcast
and invite them on
because
the world is full of information
at this point.
You should be able to think for yourself.
You shouldn't have to house
or if you're thinking anymore,
but if you still do,
you have to start a podcast.
Absolutely.
Well, guys,
thank you for listening
to this edition of the Beagle Weekly
and we'll catch you on the next one.
It's got me up late tonight
The false cool air is just beginning to bite
Brains are breaking, the feds are playing their cards
There's no surprise, the plebs have always been retards
There is a consistency
Why can't they see the scheme
They're just like lemmings
Running into the ravine
Angry faces, angry noise, angry people pointing fingers
At everything but themselves
Why can't they stop and think?
Oh hell, oh hell
They're all losing their minds
Oh hell, oh hell
Falling to their designs
Oh hell, oh hell
They're all losing their minds
Oh hell, oh hell
All into their design
I won't lose my mind
Fear tends to make society go insane
When emotions blaze, it's hard to use your brain
I'm not a part of their team, I'm just being me
There's no more energy to give you my sympathy
I've seen it all before
It's a psychological war
But once again you're bringing conflict to my door
Angry faces, angry noise, angry people pointing fingers
At everything but themselves
Why can't they stop and think?
Oh hell, oh hell
They're all losing their minds
Oh hell, oh hell
Falling to their desires
Oh hell, oh hell
They're all losing their minds
Oh hell, oh hell
Falling to their desires
I won't lose my mind
Thank you.
