I mean, I think this is good advice for for young people going to college is, like, when when I read your articles</span> <span class="cue" id="t-279" data-t="279">online,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-280" data-t="280">I I've never had the question of what is what was Party's GPA when he was in college at journalist school? Like, the the certificate,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-289" data-t="289">you know, essentially gives you the green light to</span> <span class="cue" id="t-294" data-t="294">perform this very important work of journalism.</span> <span class="cue" id="t-297" data-t="297">And</span></span></p> + +<p class="cue-p"><a class="cue-t" href="#t-299">4:59</a><span class="cue-body"><b class="cue-who">Richard Greaser</b> <span class="cue" id="t-299" data-t="299">it's just those those</span> <span class="cue" id="t-300" data-t="300">those letters saying bachelor's degree in journalism</span> <span class="cue" id="t-303" data-t="303">after your name, which are are the important credentials, I think, which are it's really important for our audience to know.</span> <span class="cue" id="t-310" data-t="310">It's like there's this pandemic happening in the Bitcoin community</span> <span class="cue" id="t-313" data-t="313">where there's all these people creating podcasts, and they didn't go to journalist school.</span> <span class="cue" id="t-318" data-t="318">It's really a problem.</span></span></p> + +<p class="cue-p"><a class="cue-t" href="#t-320">5:20</a><span class="cue-body"><b class="cue-who">Party Bent</b> <span class="cue" id="t-320" data-t="320">Yeah.

I mean, I I think, like, what we have in the world of journalism today is</span> <span class="cue" id="t-396" data-t="396">it's kinda like the Bitcoin blockchain without spam filters, like we're seeing right now. So, like, all these</span> <span class="cue" id="t-403" data-t="403">all these non</span> <span class="cue" id="t-405" data-t="405">accredited individuals</span> <span class="cue" id="t-407" data-t="407">publishing</span> <span class="cue" id="t-408" data-t="408">stuff online on on</span></span></p> + +<p class="cue-p"><a class="cue-t" href="#t-411">6:51</a><span class="cue-body"><b class="cue-who">Richard Greaser</b> <span class="cue" id="t-411" data-t="411">on publications like Ordinals Magazine,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-415" data-t="415">they did they are just spamming</span> <span class="cue" id="t-417" data-t="417">spamming the Internet. And, like, we we have a very important</span> <span class="cue" id="t-422" data-t="422">job to do here, which is to protect democracy. Like, the Washington Post,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-426" data-t="426">their their tagline is democracy dies in darkness.</span> <span class="cue" id="t-430" data-t="430">And, like, we're we're</span></span></p> + +<p class="cue-p"><a class="cue-t" href="#t-432">7:12</a><span class="cue-body"><b class="cue-who">Richard Greaser</b> <span class="cue" id="t-432" data-t="432">essentially getting eclipsed</span> <span class="cue" id="t-434" data-t="434">by the non credentialed</span> <span class="cue" id="t-436" data-t="436">spammers.</span> <span class="cue" id="t-438" data-t="438">And I think the solution like, Nikki Haley was on to something when she talked about KYC and the Internet,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-444" data-t="444">which essentially is a spam filter</span> <span class="cue" id="t-447" data-t="447">being put on,</span></span></p> + +<p class="cue-p"><a class="cue-t" href="#t-449">7:29</a><span class="cue-body"><b class="cue-who">Richard Greaser</b> <span class="cue" id="t-449" data-t="449">you know, the world of journalism in the same way that Luke Dash Junior is trying to do with Naught.</span></span></p> + +<p class="cue-p"><a class="cue-t" href="#t-454">7:34</a><span class="cue-body"><b class="cue-who">Party Bent</b> <span class="cue" id="t-454" data-t="454">And I think that's really great.
