Transcript: In The Midst Of Madness | Bugle Weekly Episode 102

0:03Richard Greaser This week 16, Maxi Madness is down to the top 16 competitors. This week, it kicks off. You decide

0:15Richard Greaser who makes it to the Elite Eight And dead folks, we're almost there Lights day, the final four And then Thursday the Maxi Madness champion Lulu will be Yesterday, I got some breaking news to the desk of Timmy Teller. Timmy Teller blew up the news

0:36Richard Greaser that Timmy yes, Tim b no. The fifteenth seed in the Podkop region. He is facing Lawrence Lepard today in the sweet 16. Tim b is short for Timothy Bickland.

0:54Richard Greaser I was able to find his birth certificate through a FOAI request. Turns out, Tim b changed his shortened his name to distance himself from Joey Bitcoins and Teddy Bitcoins.

1:11Richard Greaser But Tim is the third bastard Bitcoin son of going parabolic Jason Williams. So if you thought that Teddy Bitcoins and the Bitcoins brothers were a problem, both Maxi Madness passed. Unfortunately for you today,

1:30Richard Greaser you're waking up your finding out the Bitcoins brothers are still just remaxing and Maxi Madness. But that's not the only thing going on with the news this week. He just woke up to an Omega candle in the S and P 500 in Bitcoin,

1:45Richard Greaser in Gold, a red Omega candle to the downside in Oil as Donald Trump is apparently seeking a peaceful resolution

1:57Richard Greaser in reopening the Strait Of Hormuz in Iran. Still no still no confirmation that Didi is alive. Nobody's seen any canceled some, canceled his Seacock appearance in Eastern Europe.

2:14Richard Greaser The time line's accelerating. And, actually, madness is correlated with a bullish trend in Bitcoin prices. He's he's seeing the return of the

2:27Richard Greaser bull market. I don't know if that's if that's Maxi Madness to to to Maxi Madison's credit or not. But, Richard, how are you doing? How are you what's going on with the Noster Maxi Madness bracket? Because for the first time in Maxi Madness history, we've had to do some

2:44Richard Greaser some middle of the tournament play in rounds due to some user experience issues. Go ahead, catch us up there, and let us know what's going on.

2:58Rod Palmer It has been a lot less of a shit show than I anticipated. I I was concerned about I was bracing for impact, you know, because I am an Astra user. I know how it works and I know how bad the UX is. And, in a while, it's been less than optimal. It's been actually

3:19Rod Palmer pretty stellar. But, essentially, what happened is there were some votes that weren't counted, so we had to issue a recount. And we had to talk to the primal team in order to get some bugs fixed, which caused it. But, you know, different users were seeing different amounts. And so on a poll between Jack Dorsey and,

3:44Rod Palmer friend of the show, Rev Hoddle, it showed some people that Dorsey wanted, like me, and then others that Rev Huddle had won. And in reality, Rev Huddle had won.

4:00Rod Palmer So, yeah, we had to disqualify a couple people, disqualify Jack Dorsey. I think the the fans were very excited to see Jack Dorsey, disqualified. They made a lot of people happy.

4:13Richard Greaser Some, not the people that voted for him, to win Maxi Madness, and the pre pre entry markets, though.

4:20Rod Palmer Well, really? I didn't hear anything from them.

4:23Richard Greaser Yeah. You know, it's I didn't the Nasr tournament, the the stakes are high. It's not just this is not just social capital crisis recovery in action. There is money on the line. There are stats on the line. The people were betting on Jack in the prediction markets.

4:42Richard Greaser Predicts had to resolve, the the prediction market's showing Dorsey, Dorsey winning. You know, people people lost some SaaS. I don't think I haven't seen anybody complain too much about it. That's just the way it works. I mean, this is listen. If you're if you're batting on a tournament taking place on a beta feature like polls on primal

5:06Richard Greaser with the user experience difficulties that, verticals like this face, that's I mean, that this is this is prediction market on the frontier. It's not always it's not always gonna be simple, seamless, and easy. But in other views,

5:22Richard Greaser in Oster, the Maxi Madness branding was red last year, and this year it's blue. Primal copying Maxi Madness

5:33Richard Greaser going from red to blue in their new logo, solely and we we kind of started using you know it's kind of like when Twitter switched to x, they were still on the Twitter, people still using the old logo. We've been using the old logo of Primal, they they mess they reached out to us in the back channels and they said, yo, the new Primal logo is blue, baby.

5:55Richard Greaser It's blue. It's the scout. So we we had to switch out. We had to change a lot of assets and stuff that we create. I mean, we've had we have a team of geeps in idea making or, her graphics for Maxi Madness. We had to get in touch they made them all in, like, February, early March. We had to get in touch with those guys and have them change our branding to add the new prime a while ago. But other than that, you're right. It has been a pretty seamless, pretty seamless tournament for this, you know, new feature.

6:24Rod Palmer Yep. We've seen a lot of low seeds do really well in the Noster tournaments. So Ben Wurman made it to the sweet sweet 16. He was a 15 seed. You have Rev Hoddle, 16 seed in the sweet 16. And, Duke was also a 16 seed, and Ethan Fenigsen was a 15 seed.

6:46Richard Greaser Do you know anything about this Duke? This Duke?

6:50Rod Palmer Duke is a I think he's Noster's 10 b. Interesting.

6:57Richard Greaser He's a he's a dark horse. So he's not he's he's not Noster's newt. It's nine home. He's Noster's 10 b. So it's not dude newt. Yeah. I'm trying.

7:09Rod Palmer I don't think a lot's known about dude. There there was just a roster insider that, gave the, selection team the suggestion of including him, in,

7:21Richard Greaser the tournament. Does he have bot guest?

7:24Rod Palmer I don't believe so. I guess that's where he's different.

7:29Richard Greaser Is he Maxie? Is he I mean, I guess, it would be on Noster's more or less Bitcoin. Hey. I like it now.

7:39Rod Palmer It's a Mike Mike Brock's not an officer. He's not really a Bitcoin.

7:43Richard Greaser Now American HODL, I saw him on the on the Nostril timeline yesterday. He was accusing the bugle of using the Dominion voting machines for vaccine analysts because of the all the irregularities in the polling results.

8:01Richard Greaser Now you think a merit of all people would understand these or experience frictions, of a decentralized protocol, like Primal, like Noster.

8:15Richard Greaser But, you know, American Huddle, like many of the Plebs, never never waste an opportunity to talk on builders, to talk on entrepreneurs, to people who know how to code. It's a lot easy it's a lot easier to gesture Max,

8:33Richard Greaser than it is to build something and and to promote, you know, successful tournaments and campaigns. But I mean, American Huddl's still I mean, my favorite love for American Huddl friend friend of the show, I guess you could say. But, you know, I just

8:50Richard Greaser flooded her last year. He crashed out during paper Bitcoin summer, and he went over to to Doster for a day. And when when she saw what Odell and American Hoddle let Plads get away with on the roster, he was horrified, and there's some truth to that. I mean, Hoddle and and Odell, it's like the wild west over there on the roster. They they just let they let the Plads get away with murder. Goddamn

9:17Richard Greaser him. Hey. Hey. That's part of that's part of why people love it. That's part of why people love it.

9:23Rod Palmer Well, the the dynamic that's so different about an officer is you can't block people. And and many of these influencer type individuals kinda control their public perception by blocking people, and you can't the predator's like this. Predator's very block happy. I think he's got you blocked. I think he has the bugle kinda blocked, for some reason had

9:50Richard Greaser Pledger has had the bugle and Rob Palmer, myself, on Twitter, he's had us blocked since the first Nazi Madness. The fur the the first Nazi madness, it was we didn't even make it to the second round before Pletterer had had enough. He he was like, this is the

10:10Richard Greaser biggest noise, waste of time that a Bitcoin influencer popularity contest. So he's missed out on a lot of Maxi Madness history.

10:24Rod Palmer So a lot of people were accusing Maxi Madness of being a distraction.

10:31Richard Greaser And Yeah. Yeah.

10:35Rod Palmer I don't I don't really understand how they see it as a distraction. What are we distracting from? Somebody said that it was a distraction from monitoring the situation.

10:46Richard Greaser Well, I mean, maxi madness is a situation. It's a situation to be monitored, and in my opinion, it's probably rocket.

10:59Richard Greaser Vaccine that is is a good example of a situation that you can monitor and have enough if you if you pay in the close enough attention to listen to forty hours of a Bitcoin podcast per week, you have enough information and context to know it's bullshit in what signal. And I think it's a good it's a it's like train wheels for monitoring the situation. If you can man if you can monitor the maxi mano situation, you can monitor some of these

11:27Richard Greaser broader geopolitical macro situations, which are just, I mean, rife with disinformation, information where Caiaph,

11:37Richard Greaser Osid Slop, AI videos of Tel Aviv, same AI videos that Tel Aviv didn't blow up every day. It's like this is live footage from Tel Aviv, and it's just like missiles raining down from the sky. When you've got friends, like you have friends who live in Tel Aviv, and they're sending you, you know, Snapchat videos. First of all, if it was live, there wouldn't be nighttime because if you know time zone differences, it's daytime in Israel when some of these videos were coming out. The explosions, the chaos, it's just not real. And the same goes for Iran and a lot of these other countries. You just have no idea

12:11Richard Greaser what's really going on over there at any given time. And so monitoring a situation can be full of of of cyanide land mines that you fall for. I don't know. It's not a distraction. I think it's a supplement, if anything.

12:28Rod Palmer Did you see the ghost of Teran?

12:32Richard Greaser Are you referring to people thought they saw shinobi, Narita running through Tehran? Funny, you know, basically, Israel and United States were, like, launching just a onslaught, but precision targeting weapons, and they could not hit the coast of Tehran because he was no radar running too quickly to the streets, and people thought it was shinobi as that. But you were flying too or something else. No. They they have a guy

12:59Rod Palmer going around on a flying carpet shooting down f sixteenth.

13:04Richard Greaser Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He even got an f 35, I saw. Those those magic carpets, those Persian routes, those things turn on a dime. We're spending billions, hundreds, a $100,000,000,000 to build an f 35, half of them crash out in training. The other half made it to Iran, finally made it to war, and then you've got these, you know, $2,000

13:30Richard Greaser Persian rugs just absolutely dominating these f 35 machines we built in the skies over Tehran, these dog fights, and that is part of the problem. We have a much more advanced,

13:45Richard Greaser a much more high cost prestige technology, stealth weaponry. Our our military is far more advanced than Iran when it comes to expenses.

13:58Richard Greaser We spare no expense. But Iran, the Persians, they've got endless they've got endless rounds, endless of these, like, hellfire missile or hypersonic missiles that they can watch anywhere in the Middle East, and they just got Persian rugs

14:16Richard Greaser in these military caches. They just warm up, and they can stuff them down in these climate controlled little containers. They can rip these things out and watch at the sky to battle, in dark lights for air supremacy. And you shoot one of these one of these fly carpets down. Okay. Well, that was $2,000

14:38Richard Greaser worth of technology. You just spent a billion dollars to shoot down 2,000. It's not sustainable. In the Strait Of Hormuz is is pure chaos. Oil prices,

14:50Richard Greaser energy prices, they could go through if this summer because we just can't stop. We just it's it's not a sustainable battle. They kicked out so much cheap technology, but it's effective.

15:03Rod Palmer I know the libs are, queuing up the Trump I did it stickers for the gas pumps, but, I almost wonder if we should start doing Persian rug carpet or, like, stickers to to put on the gas pump. So you just got this Iranian guy.

15:20Richard Greaser Yeah. This is Yeah. Hold on. This is this is where the Dan's teeth messing up. They wanna give Donald Trump credit for everything. And

15:34Richard Greaser it's Donald Trump does not deserve credit for high gas prices. They deploy air force pilots who are flying the match carpets in Iran or to blame for this. They and they deserve credit. It's like it's like all the grumpy Bitcoiners in they detail the pear trap. They want they they they give BD

15:58Richard Greaser credit for everything instead of I mean, sometimes their own successes in their own lives then even give them out themselves credit for it. They blame BD for the situation. And it's it's again, we talked about this the past few weeks.

16:15Richard Greaser You've got until the end of May to blame BD. And Trump for everything. It's done it's bikeless summers about taking personal responsibility for the good and the bad.

16:25Rod Palmer You know, Shinobi's been crashing out all over Twitter, about everything. He has a new reason to crash out every, like, five minutes. Do you think that he's gonna get on the White Glide summer train, or is he gonna fight it?

16:40Richard Greaser Probably not. No. Snow is gonna fight White Glide summer. White Glide summer is such a fun, lighthearted. It's just a it's just a good time and he's he's allergic to things like that. And somebody else

16:55Richard Greaser contact inside the Bitcoin conference told me that the ticket sales are a lot lower this year than previous years. And, you know, he's a little bit stressed out. He's a little bit nervous because

17:10Richard Greaser this year at the Bitcoin conference, the only people who are gonna be there. This is gonna be Shinno. He's gonna be surrounded by all the people he's called retarded in the past few years. And they the the people are mainly buying tickets to the Bitcoin conference in base this year for the opportunity to confront Shinobi for all of the trash talk and the names and and all the mud he's been slaying on Twitter for the past year and a half.

17:38Richard Greaser And, you know, Shido he has said he's he's gonna wear a mask, he's gonna stay disguised, stay keep his OPSEC in Vegas. But the thing is,

17:52Richard Greaser Shido he's just done. The way the plebs lack self awareness. Shinobi does in some ways as well. The shinobi thinks he just puts on mask and that the plebs don't recognize him. And then that's that's all that's the only thing they know. You know, he's this is him wearing a mask with his ponytail

18:12Richard Greaser in his, his military depot, camouflage, deer, maybe a pot top T shirt. He's he sticks out like a sore thumb. He's very tall.

18:24Rod Palmer He's got a very loud voice, you know, and and, like, when you have somebody screeching at you on Twitter spaces calling you retarded, it's kinda hard to forget the voice.

18:36Richard Greaser Yes. You know, he is a grown adult, but he still his voice is still cracking, like somebody going to a Pee wee when he screams at people on on spaces and calls them, they're targeted, and he's gonna be unable to use his inside voice at the conference this year. People are gonna hear that echoing shrills for each from all the way over, you know, Frosty Expo Hall.

19:01Richard Greaser Your legal find on Passano Gold wants to find Shinobi.

19:06Rod Palmer Yeah. I'm monitoring the situation with with markets this week. The they're they're behaving very strangely this morning. We're recording Monday morning before market open, and, Bitcoin took a little bit of a pump after dumping pretty hard in the evening last night.

19:26Rod Palmer I was kind of expecting catastrophe for the market, because gold has been behaving extremely erratically right now. There's, like, a big sell off in precious metals and and Bitcoin.

19:43Richard Greaser It's Bitcoin has has outperformed gold 25% since the beginning of this valerie and ivory, and and intellectual operas are getting a little bit of life. You ever watch WWF professional wrestling

19:58Richard Greaser when it seems like Hulk Hogan or some wrestler is down and out. It's over for him. The rate of the match is is lost, and then all of a sudden that he end, he comes up. It starts to starts to shake and the fans, they see the energy and they start to cheer, and they and they use the vibes and the energy of the crowd to, like, stand back up and to turn the entire match around. And that's what the plug sloppers are dealing,

20:24Richard Greaser with this gold, decoupling from the performance of Bitcoin, and they're starting to say, Bitcoin is a real store of value, and gold is gold is the quote unquote not real store of value. This is this is a big development, but it's

20:40Richard Greaser some people, they didn't see it come.

20:44Rod Palmer I think this is part of the reason why Bitcoin Twitter has, died off a lot is is people just don't they they got so frustrated with not knowing how to call Peter Schiff retarded because with gold pumping so hard, they kinda look retarded. They've been calling Peter retarded for years and years and years and years, and then finally, he somewhat vindicated with gold ripping and Bitcoin being uninteresting,

21:10Rod Palmer and they are just crashing out not knowing what to do. When that that switch happens, when the, the Bitcoin Gold death cross happens and, you know, Bitcoin starts outperforming for an extended period of time, I think they're gonna be back ready to dunk on Peter Schiff pretty hard, and it'll be exciting.

21:35Richard Greaser Likely summer is is going to be a celebration of a lot of things, but one of those things will be the return of, she's talking on Peter Schiff every morning, and I think people are really excited about that. But, yeah, we'll be monitoring markets,

21:54Richard Greaser the leaner, all that stuff. But I wanna I wanna circle back here to the three sixteen of Nancy Madness, and we'll get into the Twitter tournament

22:07Richard Greaser here shortly. But I I'd I'd like to hear some of your predictions for the 03/16. Who who do you think now that we've narrowed it down? What do you think is or the top the top two to watch for your favorites and maybe the top two, dog flushes who might be able to finish the Cinderella run?

22:30Rod Palmer I think a lot of people are excited about Temby. There's a lot of people who are really oh, you're you're asking me about the Noster bracket? I was talking about the Twitter bracket.

22:44Richard Greaser Yeah. We'll get into that one then.

22:47Rod Palmer Yeah. For, Noster, I think dude is kind of a shocker. I think, Ben Worman has a good shot. Good matchup against, Walker here.

23:04Rod Palmer If if I were a betting man, which I I don't feel comfortable with putting any money on predates because I'm facilitating, you know, the bracket, but I probably put money on Rev Huddl right now. I think he's got a really good shot for winning the whole thing. He just continues to get momentum. He's probably the most engaged

23:30Rod Palmer with his audience. He's really milking it right now.

23:36Richard Greaser You're curious about you think Odell is still the overall favorite? You think he's he, you know, he's still in it. He seems tough. And then, I mean, Ben Jossman,

23:51Richard Greaser he's been crushing it. He was doing well in the Maxi Madness on Twitter. He was in the hot region, which was very competitive. They still got no room in, and then then he called cheating. He's probably the hottest person in the max either in the in the Austin tournament when it comes to to abs. He's got really good abs, and he looks like he uses,

24:18Richard Greaser global essence shampoo. His hair is is very, very luscious. I mean, do you see any of these guys with a path to victory, or is it is it mostly down to Rev Huddl and Dute in your mind?

24:33Rod Palmer I I definitely think I'll I mean, the the problem with Maxi Madness is anything can happen. It it it's almost like the the least likely scenario is what always plays out. And, I don't know. I've been I've been shocked every year. I've been shocked. It it's you you go to sleep at night with expectations of how the polls are gonna look in the morning, and and oftentimes, they're the complete opposite

25:00Rod Palmer of where you left off when you went to sleep. And it's so hard to know. So hard to know how it's gonna play out, what's gonna happen.

25:12Richard Greaser Yeah. The the the one the the pulls out the what in about a hour and a half?

25:20Rod Palmer I gotta post the nostrils in, like, twenty five minutes. I think I'm starting an hour earlier than Twitter.

25:32Richard Greaser Well, speaking of Twitter, this is where the trauma is very high. The three sixteen is down. We are in the Node region.

25:44Richard Greaser Now Rob Hamilton versus Giacomo Siko as well as MBK versus Adam Back. In the Pioneer region, vocal rock star versus Casey Rodemore.

25:57Richard Greaser And then Nicky versus Samson. In the Potkov region, yellow, you face Danny Knowles from what Bitcoin does. And once the card is taken on Timothy, Bitcoin's Tim b, who we'll get into here in a moment.

26:14Richard Greaser In the hot region, you've got Efrafinixen versus Justine Harper, a gay mislabel. And then the last man standing in hot region, Chrissedor, you mean versus Aaron Redwing from, Help Money? Now in the Node region,

26:31Richard Greaser this one was very hotly contested, very controversial in the first two rounds, but the the Nazis are have all been eliminated at this point. And right now, there's a lot of hype being built in some in some

26:48Richard Greaser group chats for a Giacomo versus Yellow rematch, which, of course, if you pay attention, was the two thousand twenty four matchy madness final with Yellow one. And that could be huge. That could be a huge, matchup if if Giacomo and Yellow keep their the momentum. But

27:08Richard Greaser But down in the Pioneer region, hopeful rock star shocked the world on Friday. He eliminated Michael Sailor before he even made his three sixteen. Uncle rock star is a dark horse for sure in the tournament.

27:23Richard Greaser But he's gotta make it out of that region over against a very hot Casey Ormos and very I mean, Misty has been pulling. Misty's been blowing people out in her in her matchups, so this is this is big. And then in Podkomp, I mean, yellow

27:41Richard Greaser number one seed, number one overall seed in the bracket, former champion. But Kendi is on a hot streak. And after the news that we learned this weekend,

27:54Richard Greaser that that he is Teddy Bitcoin's younger brother, ish when he Teddy Bitcoins beat yellow last year. Did Timmy did Timothy Bitcoins do it? We'll find it out. But, Mark, I want to know who you think is gonna make it out of the hot region because I I think this is anyone's game. Ephrat, Justine, Foynjo and Clarias, or Eric Madwick.

28:19Rod Palmer I have no idea. This is this is so hard to predict. I don't think anybody knows. I don't even think PB knows. It's these are all really tough competitors, and they are all

28:37Rod Palmer really in it to win it. The these four are pretty, competitive. They've been pretty active in the in the tournament on the timelines. They're

28:49Richard Greaser they are their own biggest advocates. Efraat, Justine, Chris, Aaron, they are not afraid. Some people, they like to fumble blaze their competitors and say the other person deserves to win. Efraad even did that against Lynn Alden,

29:08Richard Greaser but she still be here. And I think beating Lynn Alden has really basted Efrat's confidence, and she's coming into this matchup with with miss Vaudel very, very in very strong position.

29:23Rod Palmer Well, she's, she's really on the up and up in a lot of ways. She, not very many people made both brackets, both Noster and Twitter. She did, and and hardly anybody if anybody, I I think she might be the only one that we need Yeah.

29:45Rod Palmer The sweet sixteen's. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it would be pretty wild if she won both. That'd be crazy.

29:59Richard Greaser Yeah. You know, it's like in boxing. You've got, like, from multiple different promotions. You've got the World Boxing Organization. You've got several others. And so somebody might be the heavyweight champion in one, defeating one promotion but not the other, then you've got the the, you know, the champions who are undisputed,

30:20Richard Greaser they hold every belt, pick one ever, they win every promotion, And if Ifrah wins the Nasr and the Twitter tournaments, she would be the undisputed Maxi Madness champion. And I think it's probably good for Maxi Madness to start off with the split promotion tournament

30:39Richard Greaser having an undisputed champion, especially with the different protocol for how the votes work, but it would be it would be very impressive Either what?

30:55Rod Palmer It's like winning the the Triple Crown in horse racing. Yeah. It's,

31:04Richard Greaser are you I If if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if if, bet on it. They should bet on it.

31:21Rod Palmer Yeah. I, so one of my predictions going into the tournament, it was that this would determine the bit one ten debate, and I'm pretty confident, like, in the Node region with all the Nazis getting knocked out. It's pretty wild that Rob Hamilton beat Luke. But what it what this signifies is they've already socially hard forked.

31:47Rod Palmer You know, they're they're debating, like, an actual, like, hard fork of Bitcoin at some point, but they have already done the social hard fork in not being relevant in the general

32:04Rod Palmer conversation and that engaging with them is kinda like shit coining. It's like using Bitcoin Cash and trading Bitcoin Cash.

32:18Rod Palmer And I I I don't think they like that this is being displayed so openly for everybody to see. Like, Tomer Tomer's having a really hard time with it over the over the past week, and it's just,

32:35Rod Palmer I don't know. Where where are their voters is my question? Where where are the Nazi voters that, you know, are all show up to the conference and clap for a mechanic? They don't appear to be voting in Maxi Madness, so I'm not sure what, what the deal is here. Outside of them, just

32:58Rod Palmer haven't already done that hard fork and not existing in this in this, conversation anymore. It was pretty fascinating to watch.

33:08Richard Greaser Yeah. Outside of the the echo chamber that they've built, and then I would look for group chat where they'll post their their memes and their videos for each other to like and boost. I think it gives the

33:25Richard Greaser in the yoke, for the past two weeks, if you look at the trending, like, what's happening tabs on the Twitter app, it's always followed on. In some discussion of the Fontaine, they feel like

33:40Richard Greaser they are the center of gravity in the culture, but it is it's fake. It's faking gay. All the fight behind DuPontan is faking day, and Matsy Mattis, I don't think, is

33:58Richard Greaser the thing that proved it so much as is it it did reveal it to a broader audience that they don't have as much act passion and enthusiasm

34:13Richard Greaser and activity and momentum behind them as they think they do. And this is they they really they get bogged down in this discussion about, you know, it's not mattering and economic no. If your node matters, you don't have to say it matters. Nobody whose node matters has to constantly

34:37Richard Greaser post about how their node matters, and that's just it's like the the the from Game of Thrones, when the young boy came, says, I I am king, goddamn it, and his grandfather tells him, no man who is king must say, I am king. No node which matters must say that it matters.

34:59Richard Greaser And I think that's a good hell. If you see if somebody keeps telling you, keeps insisting to you despite nothing you've said to them personally, that their node matters, It's evidence that something's wrong, and that they don't feel like their note matters, and they don't feel like their vote counts.

35:21Rod Palmer Tomer's always out there talking about how humble he is. Mike Brock's out there talking about how sophisticated and intelligent he is. Odell's out there talking about how humble he is.

35:38Richard Greaser Yeah. Talk is cheap. I mean, saying you are humble. Yeah. Tom Lago. Oh,

35:48Rod Palmer Tom Lago is just un unbelievable.

35:52Richard Greaser No. I don't I don't I don't really follow as Tom Lago. I see him occasionally on the timeline. I mean, I kinda know who he is, but I don't listen to him. I don't I don't listen to his his, his podcast for his analysis. What's what what's the the the too long, don't read on Bon Bon Bon Bon Bon Bon Bon? He

36:13Rod Palmer he, in his own mind, is the smartest person in the world and the only one that knows what's going on. He's kinda like a Jared Cruz type mixed with,

36:26Richard Greaser a dog a little bit.

36:28Rod Palmer He he's just, like, he he he walks on. He I don't know. He's just a he's just a dumb he he's a dumb Gen X doomer, and he's really obsessed with the city of London.

36:46Rod Palmer And it like, the city of London is, like, his BB. You know what I mean? It's like all the world's problems revolve around the city of London. And, every time every time somebody prays to the east on the streets of London,

36:60Richard Greaser he gets an alert on his phone.

37:03Rod Palmer He he's a huge fan of, Jerome Powell. Thinks, Powell's fighting the globalist. And, yeah, he's he's got some, you know, pretty,

37:19Rod Palmer pretty funny takes to listen to. But it's just it it's so some of the most incredible experiences are when when he's talking to somebody, you know, intelligent and he and he starts being condescending because he's way smarter than them. He's kinda he's kinda got that that Brockian type, attitude where he he just he knows way more. And, he doesn't listen to forty hours of Bitcoin podcasts. It's it's very clear he doesn't. He he

37:48Rod Palmer he likes to brag about how he doesn't listen to forty hours of Bitcoin podcast a week.

37:53Richard Greaser This is this is the same problem Mike Brock has. You see, Mike Brock is crashing out. I think Mike Brock wrote, 77 essays this weekend. He went live. He did spaces at least a dozen times. He's talking about the the end of the world, a global economic catastrophe.

38:15Richard Greaser I think he just must have found out about Iran the other day or something because, everybody else kinda knows about what's going on. Everybody knows. I mean, anybody who filled up their gas tank this weekend knows that gas is between 4 and $7, $10 depending on which, which city you live in, and Mike Brocke posted a video and he says, I make no apologies

38:39Richard Greaser for the intensity of the pros that I'm using. And like Brock is using intense prose right now to describe like, he thinks it's the overworlds, he blames he blames everybody but himself.

38:55Richard Greaser Everybody is to blame for the situation that we are in today. Geopolitically, economically, spiritually, everybody is to blame yourself for Mike Brown. And

39:09Richard Greaser this is what we're kinda talking about with white boy southern is we all share blame to some extent On the condition of our communities,

39:24Richard Greaser our families, our society, the global economic, geopolitical situation. However, none of it gets fixed

39:35Richard Greaser until people accept the personal responsibility that they dare for any given I mean, the responsibility you bear to the world is a vacuum.

39:50Richard Greaser You're very highly responsible for yourself. If you don't make your bed in the morning, you have one person to blame, yourself. The neighborhood, if you if you oversleep and you forget to wake up for a neighborhood watch, somebody might steal a Amazon package off of your neighbor's doorstep.

40:09Richard Greaser That's not complaining. The thief who stole the Amazon package is to blame. But if you're with a neighborhood watch person, you fell asleep, you you pray to touch responsibility. Now you expand it out. President of The United States, you are one vote of, you know, 250,000,000. So your vector point

40:31Richard Greaser is proportionate to the other amount of voters. And then when it comes to the world, I mean, the world economy, the world, you know, the situation. And, yes, be this fault. But after Memorial Day, where do you come in? Where can you make a difference?

40:49Richard Greaser Could you start a podcast and influence people that you didn't? Well, then you've you've added personal responsibility here that, you bear for not

41:01Richard Greaser having a big enough impact on the situation that that approaches your potential.

41:09Rod Palmer Yeah. I know that the idea of taking personal responsibility really sounds overwhelming, but the good news is you don't have to do it today. You have until Memorial Day to take that personal responsibility. But I do think it's important to brace for impact on it and start prep preparing, you know, easing yourself into it. Maybe, like,

41:33Rod Palmer a couple day you could start out, like, warming up, like, couple days a week. You take personal responsibility, and the rest of the day is a week. You you blame BB, so maybe you start out with the weekends,

41:45Richard Greaser weekends are Like intermittent fasting, intermittent responsibility, right? Just take take a thirty six hour, send the thirty six hour fast, take personal responsibility for everything that you do for thirty six straight hours. Now at the end at the end of that thirty six hours,

42:04Richard Greaser you're going to be physically exhausted, physically meek, but there's gonna be an indifferent rush that you get from that that I think is gonna bring you back. They're gonna wanna take personal responsibility for that again because you're gonna feel you're gonna feel weirdly good. And you could I think it'll be exciting.

42:27Rod Palmer It will be exciting. Yeah. It'll it'll be great. I mean, it'll just it is tiring to take personal responsibility, you you know, because you have to actually do things, you know, and think about things and and face consequences of of doing things. The lack of taking personal responsibility is, you know, really simple because all all you do is just, you know, complain and and and think about other people.

42:56Rod Palmer But when you're actually, like, thinking about yourself and yeah. It's good to ease into it. I I think, you know, start out just the weekends, maybe like the first two weeks, you you just do it on the weekends, and then you start to integrate it into the weekday.

43:13Richard Greaser And then as you get Yeah. Think about it like it like you split custody with your wife, your ex wife, whatever your kids. You get your kids every other weekend and on every other holiday. Use the same schedule or for take personal responsibility every other weekend

43:32Richard Greaser and in every other holiday. We're like the national park. One weekend a month, two weeks a year. Take personal responsibility. Be a reserve army soldier. Be your own be your own hero around, you know, personal responsibility, Kihei.

43:48Richard Greaser Now we've got the that's the madness pulls open in five minutes. Do we, you know, do we need to get to this year and and get to the, get to the mat back to the madness? Or do you have to take personal responsibility ourselves? We can do that.

44:07Rod Palmer I think I can do both at the same time to some degree.

44:13Richard Greaser What? I've got I've been on a run to some big meetings for, for Maxi Madness and others and others stuff at work. But I you know, if you wanna maybe run to these booths and we'll get Maxi Madness going.

44:31Rod Palmer Alright. Sounds good. I will run through the boot.

44:35Richard Greaser Thank you so much, folks. Make sure you're listening to this. In the polls, it's still not closed. For Maxi Madness three sixteen on Oscar or X, get on, invoke. This is the most important. If you want to take personal responsibility for your place in democracy, it starts with Maxi Madness. See you guys

45:23Rod Palmer at the end of the day. I think we're both very proud of ourselves.

45:28Richard Greaser You know, just the

45:30Rod Palmer the the it it you can't ever care about what the plebs think. The plebs are almost always on the wrong side of history. They have no idea what's going on. They're easily manipulated. Like, the for example, the plebs killed Jesus. It's like the lesson of, the the crucifixion story is, that, the plugs kill Jesus. So don't be like the plugs. But thank you, Lake Stage Huddle. Sasha five thousand says, my five year old is requesting we listen to Maxi Madness song. I repeat. Perfect. Thank you.

46:08Rod Palmer You can find that streaming on fountain, and I'll put it on, Spotify here pretty soon. I I probably should have already put it on Spotify, but whatever. Glad she's enjoying. I I I get messages all the time of,

46:50Rod Palmer on Predicts is way cooler than betting on March Madness. I mean, this is this is way better. This is just like we we're we're creating our own world, our own reality, our own our own thing.

47:10Rod Palmer We're not we're not doing the fiat thing. March Madness, sports polls, fiat. Maxi Madness is what hyperbitcoinization is about.

47:23Rod Palmer And, if you don't like that, then you don't like hyperbitcoinization. But we know you like it. Stack Jero 1,000 sets says LFG. Sean 1,000 sets says fire outro. Thank you.

48:09Rod Palmer we'll be able to smoke cigarettes on airplanes again and not have to get fondled to get on them. Hopefully, that's the result of this. And we can get there, folks. We can get there, folks, if you stop putting up with the nonsense of

48:27Rod Palmer what the p u fielic ruling class is up to. Like, the the hyperbaconization is ushering in not having to get fondled to to get on an airplane and be able to smoke cigarettes. Like, that is what the fixing the money will allow for. Shadrach, 211 passes. Rob Hamilton dealt the death blow to my Maxi Madness
