Transcript: Is Trump Taking Ibogaine | Bugle Weekly Episode 106

0:02Rod Palmer Happy 04/20, everyone. This is Buster Cherry reporting in. We are thirty five days out from Memorial Day, which is the official start to white boy summer. That means that you have thirty five days to get blaming the Jews for all of your problems out of your system. Make sure today to get super stoned, talk about the USS Liberty, listen to English translated speeches of Hitler, argue the merits of the Scofield Bible, debate whether BB is alive or not, discuss the contents of Henry Ford's book or red heifers and all your favorite Jew conspiracy theories.

0:36Rod Palmer The clock is ticking on taking personal responsibility and taking

0:38Rod Palmer responsibility and taking back your agency. But we're not there yet, so enjoy it while it lasts. The world isn't going to fix itself. It's up to individuals to be the adults in the room the world so desperately needs. We all know we can't count on Gen X to do it for us, so the world is counting on millennials and broccoli haircuts to fix things. Before we get started with the show, I wanted to thank all of our subscribers. Thank you to Southside Dave, Used to Read a Lot, Lahav, Cliff Shark, Shadrach, BTC on board, Boomer, Sasha Hodder, Fundamentals, Sean, Late Stage Huddle Turkey, Open Mic, and Avi Burra. Now sit back, rip a blunt, or take a massive bong rip, and enjoy the show. Hey, bitches. You are listening to the Bugle Weekly, the most thermodynamically

1:24Rod Palmer sound podcast in the world. Welcome back to Bugle Weekly.

1:28Rod Palmer It's been a big week. Strait Of Hormiz was open on Friday, and it is closed again. As we're recording this Monday morning, April twentieth, four twenty, blaze it up up if you participate. Joe Rogan was in the White House this weekend with Donald Trump.

1:48Rod Palmer Joe Rogan was an is had been advocating for Iva Dane to replace Zoloft and Zoloft and other SSRIs for depression treatment. Donald Trump asked if he could get some Ibogaine when he found out how well he treated anxiety and depression. So, you know, something to think about there. The president seems a little bit depressed, lately. Even with the stock market at all time highs, WrestleMania made his debut on ESPN this weekend.

2:14Rod Palmer Jelly Roll launched himself off of, the table and did a people's elbow through Pat McAfee, one of the ESPN announcers. Imagine Jelly Roll, a man like Jelly Roll dropping the people's elbow on you in WrestleMania.

2:30Rod Palmer That they they say wrestling's not real, but Jelly Roll falling on top of you from 10 feet above. Regardless of if it's scripted or not, that has to feel real. We got word that Michael Saylor is set to announce that there is, in fact, a second best crypto asset, and that second best crypto asset is

2:53Rod Palmer Bitcoin. It is now second best to his stretch premium equity, with 11 dividends. There's a lot going on right now. There's a lot going on in the world.

3:05Rod Palmer The Plebs are crashing out about the conference in Vegas coming up next week. The the world is unraveling. Plebslop is proliferating. Paper Bitcoin and paper hash are proliferate proliferating, and the crash outs have not

3:23Rod Palmer slowed down. They've only accelerated. I don't know where to start with this this week. Richard, how are you doing? What's what's new with you?

3:33Richard Greaser Doing well. I'm just getting, ready for Vegas. You know, I watched the, the Trump Rogan announcement and, you know, thought it was kinda funny. I mean, it's just it seems like

3:46Richard Greaser these guys in the pedophilic ruling class are doing everything in their power to do anything but highlight the importance of cigarettes. You know, they're they're they're getting to the point where they're they're legalizing marijuana. They're, or debating legalizing marijuana. They're,

4:06Richard Greaser you know, talking about doing psychedelics, legalizing those. But, you know, they're just not at the point of allowing just, like, you know, supporting the real reality that, society would essentially be fixed if you could smoke cigarettes on airplanes. But, yeah, I don't know. I mean, what do you think would happen if,

4:32Richard Greaser Donald Trump sat with Ibogaine? Would that fix things?

4:38Rod Palmer Well, this is a big opportunity in my opinion because I think I'm just speculating here, but if I do the game theory, I play it out in my mind I would suspect that they are pushing these treatments like Ioboga, Ibogaine. I think eventually we're gonna lead get to like these Ayahuasca. They're gonna talk about,

5:01Rod Palmer decriminalizing Ayahuasca. What they're trying to do and if you know anything about these psychedelics, what they do is they rewire your brain. And there was this guy, I can't remember his name, he's an Australian, and he's a Bitcoin guy. He used to have a Bitcoin podcast. He's like a, he jumps out of airplanes. He's like a skydiver in Australia and he talked about

5:25Rod Palmer how psychedelics it's like thinking about a ski slope and everybody's skiing down the hill and you've got all these, tracks. After after a day of people skiing down the hill, there's these tracks and you kind of just follow the groups down the hill. And when you take these really powerful psychedelics, it's like a bunch of powder getting dumped on the mountain and all of these pathways, these think about the like the neural pathways in your mind, the your go to mode of thinking, your go to mode, your muscle memory so to speak of how you

5:58Rod Palmer react to situations, how you think about politics, how you think about problems. All those get kind of reset when the powder dumps on the mountain and you have an opportunity to reset your way of thinking and create new pathways, neural pathways of how do you solve problems? How do you wake up in the morning and you think about the stress of your day? And how do you fix and deal with your issues? They're trying to gigafry our brains with Ibogaine and Ayahuasca so that we stop thinking about the Epstein files. We stop thinking about the energy crisis created by this Iranian conflict and we start thinking about and creating these new pathways that are less likely to take us down and and conclude in this doomer scenario where we have to kill all the politicians and hang all the, you know, all the elites because they're pedophiles.

6:47Rod Palmer They want us to start thinking new. They want it they're trying to get us into a first turning mindset where they're trying to kind of reset the fourth turning mindset and restart and jump start the first turning mindset. But this creates a sly roundabout way to smoking cigarettes. Because if everybody's brains get good or fried by Ibogaine, it just solves their anxiety, their depression and their and their proclivity to enjoying the doomer slop on the timeline.

7:17Rod Palmer But it also erases their, you know, their knee jerk reaction to the idea of smoking cigarettes on airplanes. Smoking cigarettes at Tootsies on Nashville on Broadway, smoking cigarettes in the house, smoking cigarettes in the car with the windows rolled up.

7:33Rod Palmer Everybody just has like this immediate knee jerk reaction because of all the propaganda that they filled our ads with for decades. The, you know, the truth campaigns, the anti smoking campaigns, all the lawsuits. If we dump fresh powder on the mountain and we reset our neural pathways people will no long yes, they will no longer be necessarily obsessed with finding justice where the Epstein files

7:60Rod Palmer victims, which is a tragedy if we were to lose that and we can't let we can't let society lose that for, you know, that reaction to want justice but we can use a sly roundabout way to reinstitute

8:16Rod Palmer smoking cigarettes in public places like airplanes, buses, cars, bars, supermarkets, church, etcetera. Because now we have an opportunity to reset the way people think about smoking cigarettes and paint it in a positive light instead of a negative light. But to answer your question, if Donald Trump took Ibogaine, I think

8:41Rod Palmer it's a wild card situation. It's one of those situations. It's like opening Pandora's box. If we put Trump on Ibogaine, it could lead to one of the best outcomes

8:57Rod Palmer ever or, you know, all the stuff that he threatens on through social like blowing up an entire country He could end up actually nuking Iran after taking Ibogaine. I don't think we have. I just it's the devil you know versus the devil you don't. I think the devil we know in Donald Trump is make is manageable.

9:16Rod Palmer I think Donald Trump, the devil loved Donald Trump after an Ibogaine trip, it could be good, but the asymmetric downside is far too risky for us to do it. I don't think it's a good I don't think it's a good idea.

9:30Richard Greaser Yeah. It's hard to know. I mean, it it seems like there's, psychedelics are essentially used and promoted in a way in a controlled way by the pedophilic ruling class, you know, historically to rapidly shift the population's

9:51Richard Greaser views on things. Like the last times that psychedelics were proliferated in The US was when the smoking bans came. You know, it was in many ways, acid and the the peace and love hippie movement was used to to convince women that

10:12Richard Greaser their ultimate calling in life instead of being mothers and, and being women was to be taxpayers. They they they convinced women that they needed to double the tax base, that they need to go to work, that they need that HR was a necessary service in the in the corporate economy.

10:36Richard Greaser And you know, it was ultimately really destructive. And they they they convinced a bunch of people that, instead of, you know, focusing on, you know, stopping wars like the Vietnam War, that they had to support Smokey Bands. And you saw this this massive, massive shift in American culture, and I I I feel like that is probably what we're gonna see in the next few years again, you know, is these

11:04Richard Greaser these tools that allow your brain to be, like, neuroplastic. Like, why why are they legalizing weed across the board? It's because they want the they, you know, the they understand that they're not fulfilling their role in the social contract.

11:24Richard Greaser And if there's one thing that gets the plums to to forget about the social contract, it's smoking weed and staring at Netflix. That is Exactly. Like but, yeah, I mean, it's just I don't know. I've been thinking a lot about, like, masculinity and and and femininity right now. Like, why why are men such betas, across the board is because the women have been told to,

11:52Richard Greaser become men. And men wanna be attractive to women. If the women are being men, being more masculine isn't attractive to women. You know, guy guys want girlfriends at the end of the day. Like, that's, like, one of the biggest drivers in

12:09Richard Greaser a man's decision making is, like, they want they want girlfriends. They wanna have sex. Right? And they're not gonna have sex by being masculine or at least that's that's the way that the society's been structured.

12:23Rod Palmer And we talked about this we talked about this. Why are men the CIA wants to blame low testosterone on microplastics, but the reality of it is like what you said women are becoming men and

12:40Rod Palmer you've got men now being forced to make their own beds instead of having a girlfriend or a wife make their bed for them. You've got stay at home fathers who are forced to do housework and laundry because their wife is at work in the human resources department. And it's destroying society. Now, peptides are a solution to this or part of the solution to this. And TRT is now available over, like, mail order, kind of like dick pills. So that will have helped in the in the short to interim terms. Smoking cigarettes will help in the medium to long term. But this is again a CIA operation. You mentioned it back in the nineteen sixties during the the great awakening the second turning when the second turning began.

13:26Rod Palmer And now, they're looking at the world, they're looking at the future and they're realizing that we're gonna be firing all the humans and replacing them with AI. What do we know wandering e that we had a glut of? Well, Doge came in last year and did not succeed but attempted to try to clear out the bureaucracy clear out the

13:48Rod Palmer drag on the taxpayers dollars by getting rid of all the bureaucracy that's no longer needed. But what's no longer needed now is human resources departments and we talked about this after the, you know when Trump came in last year and how all the HR ladies were being fired you're gonna be able to say, retard at work, you're gonna be able to post Nick Fuentes videos on the company Slack and all that's true. But it was what we didn't really see was the details. It was we don't need HR anymore because we don't have human resources to manage in the workplace anymore. It's going to be replaced by AI. So women now, we need women to go back home

14:29Rod Palmer to be mothers, to be trad wives, to make homemade ice cream, homemade butter, to make their husband's beds. Their husbands need to go out to the trenches and they need to speculate on prediction markets, they need to compete against artificial intelligence and AI bots on the prediction markets, they need to compete to be able to afford paper hash rentals and in these stretch products and the wife needs to stay at home raising the children, raising the AI bots, whatever it is, and and making bets. Now, how do they do that? We just talked about at the beginning. We fry everybody's brains with Ibogaine and reset.

15:08Rod Palmer The wife stays in home smoking cigarettes making doing house chores, taking care of the children, taking care of the AI bots. The husband goes off to some sort of, you know, he has to walk through the streets of people just filled with with with people on, you know, whatever it is the fentanyl, Trent, whatever. If they don't die on their way to work, they go and they start making predictions on predicts, poly market, cow sheets, trying to stay ahead of the game.

15:37Rod Palmer Stay ahead of make a little bit more than the UBI based them. And this is they reset people's brains in the 60s and they're using the same technology, this ancient medicine to reset people's brains to kick start them into a first turning mindset. They've got Jordan Peterson,

15:57Rod Palmer he's on I don't know if you saw the news but he's on his deathbed as reported by his daughter, Michaela. He's got some kind of crazy nerve damage as a result of taking Xanax and anti anxiety medicines. He's no longer has the capacity to go on Joe Rogan, to go on podcast and tell young men to make their bets. He's been neutralized by the CIA and now the CIA is going in and and trying to reset people's brains

16:26Rod Palmer and can kind of take us back to a more traditional lifestyle where the women are feminine. They stay at home, they they make their husband's beds, they cook, they clean, and the husbands go off and do the dangerous work that is that is not

16:43Rod Palmer necess is not necessary to have an HR person directing it. It doesn't matter if your feelings get hurt at work anymore. Doesn't matter if you crash out at work anymore. You have to show up. You have to show up to the trenches and make your predictions on on on prediction cricket.

16:59Richard Greaser You know, probably I know this is I I I'm typically anti war. Right? Or almost always anti war.

17:12Richard Greaser But one of the things that is a silver lining to war is there there's nothing more encouraging for women to be feminine than the possibility of having to go fight a war. Like, women like to be men up until it potentially takes them to the front lines. And this very real potential is like the global war continues to escalate.

17:39Richard Greaser It's I mean, it's like you look at Russia, for example. Russia has been at war. You know, their plaives have been going and dying in the trenches in Ukraine for a long time.

17:53Richard Greaser And culturally, they've they've really, you know, continued they've always been a little bit more, like, traditionally value focused since, you know, the fall of the USSR, you know, trending in that direction. And they continue to become more so that way because the women realized they don't wanna have to go fight on the front lines. Like, they they dealt with that with the USSR. They knew what historically

18:18Richard Greaser what that's like for women, you know, to to be equal to men in the sense of, like, you know, being expected to to wear pants in the same way as men and, like, the consequences of that. So I I think there's like a you know, there there's a necessary shift in that direction. But, yeah, I mean, it's like

18:43Richard Greaser I think it's more productive in society for women to be the human resources officers at home instead of in the corporation. Instead of man managing man child, you know, corporate executives, they they can manage children. I I just think it's healthier for them. I think it's

19:04Richard Greaser healthier for men. And, you know, like the the men need to be going to work and they need to be working in an environment where they're able to smoke chain smoke cigarettes and work their asses off and not have a woman offended by the smell of smoke.

19:24Rod Palmer Right. Right. It it I just wanna make it clear there being anti war, it may be the most morally justifiable position. But, it doesn't matter if you're anti war anymore, you still have to go to war.

19:42Rod Palmer Being a, conscientious objector is a zero interest rate phenomenon. But, you don't tend to be as a conscientious objector you are going to be drone fodder in the future whether you are pro war anti war. So, it is that aside one issue

20:04Rod Palmer that Donald Trump got himself he kind of painted himself into a corner and his administration painted himself into a corner because and people thought this was a good idea last year, he banned trans people from serving in the military especially serving on the front lines. So that

20:24Rod Palmer leaves people with two options. You either cut your dick off or you have to go die for Israel. So now if you want to avoid war, if you're anti war, if you are a conscious objector, your only opt your only

20:41Rod Palmer of the opportunity to avoid going to die for Israel in the front lines is to chop your dick off. Bone spurs don't count anymore, being, you know, what? Later in the list because you are, you know, finishing a college degree getting an education

21:03Rod Palmer none of that excuses you from war anymore. The only thing you can do to get out of war is to be a woman or to, you know, be a a trans woman. That's the only way to get out of fighting. So it's your choices or cut your dick off or you go to war.

21:21Richard Greaser You know, when when the draft commission is looking at, I have not looked into this. This is a a genuine question. When when the draft commission is looking at your eligibility, like, to what extent do you have to be trans to be an eligible? Do you have to have gender reassignment

21:42Richard Greaser surgery? Do you need to be on hormones? Do you just have to look super beta? And, do you have to get fake tits? Like, can you keep your dick and have fake tits? Like, what

21:56Rod Palmer like, to what extent? It's unclear where they draw the line. I mean, when I say unclear, I it's unclear to me. I haven't read the official documentation. I haven't read what makes you, ineligible. I don't know if being castrated if you can't be a unit on the front lines, I don't know. I just know that

22:20Rod Palmer if you present yourself as a woman, if you if you wear makeup and and you wear little pigtails and you shot the clairs and you wear earrings, they typically are not gonna let you serve in the military, at least for now. They may change that. They may say, hey, wipe your makeup off, take your peptides, get your testosterone back up to normal levels, here's a pack of lucky strikes, smoke cigarettes in the trenches you have to fight. But for now, it seems that identifying as a woman

22:50Rod Palmer is enough to get you out of service. So, it would be an incredible rug pull for a lot of people to go train ins and to cut their dicks off and only have to serve anyway. I think that would really cause people to crash out.

23:06Richard Greaser Yeah. I'd I'd encourage the listener, if you're conscientious object or, you know, monitor the situation closely, but don't don't make any decisions that are permanent and irreversible. You can't grow your dick back, unfortunately. I don't think there's been a peptide created yet that allows you to do that. But, yeah, I mean, it's just like, you know, the the history of the draft of warfare, like, during the Vietnam War,

23:33Richard Greaser you know, there was an option to to essentially castrate yourself to, avoid the draft as well. It was called moving to Canada.

23:42Rod Palmer That's essentially the same as cutting your dick off today, is moving to Canada.

23:50Richard Greaser It always has been. Yeah. It's, it it it's strange, like, our our Canadian listeners just seem kind of oblivious. And I guess we shouldn't give them too much of a hard time because they're they're all having a a real hard time up in in Canada, but it's just like one of those realities. I think I think part of the reason, you know, why Canada is the way it is is too cold to go outside.

24:16Rod Palmer They spend too much time Yeah. And they can't smoke cigarettes inside and it's too cold to smoke cigarettes outside, so they don't smoke cigarettes. And you've got too many Canadians who are just not thinking for themselves. Too many Canadians who just kind of go kind of turn off their brains and just zone out and go through way in acknowledgments and all this bullshit they just go along with that. They just go along with it and at a certain point

24:44Rod Palmer it's like the frog, you put the frog in the pot and if you put the frog in boiling water he would jump out right away. If you put the frog in the pot before the water's hot and you turn on the burner and it slowly heats up the frog slowly cooks in in the water and that's what's happened to Canadians. They slowly they just go on along with it and at a certain point you can't undo you can't get out of

25:09Rod Palmer the predicament. And that is where Canadians are and it's it's terrible, it's sad to see, it's hard to escape from but I would encourage Canadians who are based Canadians who think for themselves or Bitcoiners to do what Americans have done. When they do the land acknowledgments,

25:28Rod Palmer take a knee. Go down on one knee and refuse to stand for land acknowledgements. Burn, you know, burn, burn if it's Nike, whatever the brands are whatever the corporations are that are sponsoring these land acknowledgements burn that burn that apparel and take an e during land acknowledgements show that you are not going to go along

25:49Rod Palmer with the, you know, the faggotry anymore.

25:53Richard Greaser Yeah. We Canada needs kind of like un Marxist cultural revolution. Like, they need to get in touch with their like, the the parts of their culture that are ungovernable. Like, Trailer Park Boys should be the biggest meme

26:12Richard Greaser in the country. Ricky and Julian are, I think, the gold standard of how to be Canadian, not be gay. And, you know, you're just you're what what they're fighting is, you know, the the average population is essentially Randy and and mister Leahy. That's where they're at right now.

26:33Richard Greaser Like, their their greatest aspiration in life is to be cops, but they're not cops. Like, they wanna be narc. They wanna narc on their neighbors. They they want compliance at all costs, and, that's what you're up against. And and Randy and Julian essentially set the playbook. Like, if you go through Trailer Park Boys, like, you can you can see all their failings. Like, you know, the go the goal isn't to go to jail. You know what I mean? They go to jail at at like the end of every season so you can, like, kinda know, like, how to

27:05Richard Greaser get away from it. But, yeah, I mean, it's just j rock.

27:11Rod Palmer Well, I mean, look at the trailer park place. Even even back then, it was a a move behind the curtain into why Canada is in the predicament they're in. What do they let people do in jail in Canada? They let them smoke weed. If you're in jail and you're allowed to smoke weed,

27:32Rod Palmer what you're not thinking about how you get out you're not thinking about how depressed and demoralizing it is to have your freedom stripped away from you and to be locked into a cell. And to have to make your own bed without having any women there to make their bed for you. Because you're just high all the time and letting letting people smoke weed and shale in Canada is was a brilliant move by the state

27:60Rod Palmer by allowing the state to to to set that policy at the policy level, it was a disaster for for the Canadian civilization long term.

28:15Richard Greaser Also.

28:17Rod Palmer They they they let you smoke weed in jail and then they slowly they take away smoking cigarettes. Because if you're in jail and you're smoking weed, you can't smoke cigarettes, you are absolutely not thinking for yourself. You are just stuck in your own head, and you're just not thinking clearly.

28:38Richard Greaser Well said. Well, we're roughly seven days out from the conference. It's happening. I think we're both flying out here pretty soon.

28:51Richard Greaser It's I don't know. I mean, it it's been different watching the, the Bitcoin price kinda go up a little bit going into the conference. Could this be the first year in the conference existence where the price doesn't dump on the conference?

29:11Rod Palmer Oh, I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I you've got people who say the four year cycle theory's over. You got people who say the volatility, the the 70% drawdowns, are a thing of the past. And those are the same people, the same type of people who say that the price is

29:29Rod Palmer crashing during the conference is a thing of the past. We've had a very bullish week last week with the reopening of the Strait Of Hormuz, but now we're coming in less than a week from the conference. And, you've got the Hormuz Strait reclosed. Iran saying they are no longer, you know,

29:48Rod Palmer will no longer want to participate in any more peace talks in Pakistan or elsewhere with The United States. They are willing to, you know, have all their their power stations and breaches blown up, in retaliation. They wanna they're gonna continue to attack ships in the Strait Of Hormuz. The conditions are very ripe for another crash, the price at the Bitcoin conference this year.

30:15Rod Palmer There's even a Predict Market on this that will the price crash during the conference this year and the the percentage the odds of it are very low right now. So, it's it's an it's a it's a great opportunity if you listen to forty hours per week, if you're kind of ahead of the, ahead of the curve here a little bit to to to take out taking advantage of this because I don't think it's over.

30:42Richard Greaser You don't think we're finally entering in a a bull market?

30:48Rod Palmer Yeah. I well, I haven't seen any enough evidence of that.

30:53Richard Greaser But shouldn't STRC be evidence of a a bull market? Seems like some bull market behavior to me. Sailor getting over his skis.

31:04Rod Palmer Well, I think that is probably the catalyst for a price pump during the conference to kind of give everybody the feeling of safety like, oh, we're not gonna crash this year. We have a new best crypto asset and it is stretched, but I think by by the end, on the twenty ninth,

31:24Rod Palmer by the end of the day, whether it's something happened in Iran or some sort of announcement that gets announced, I think that it's gonna drive the price low. I don't know if it'll drive below 60 k. But I mean at 58 k, being at 58 k by the end of the conference would be the funniest outcome, and the funniest outcome is usually the most likely.

31:48Richard Greaser Well, there's there's a couple things that are happening that are new. Like, Donald Trump is having his meme coin conference in Mar A Lago right before. You got Saylor announcing their second best crypto asset

32:07Richard Greaser in Bitcoin, first being, STRC. I got Dennis, he's got an announcement. I I've got a prediction for what his announcement is, but, it's unclear

32:21Richard Greaser exactly what his announcement's gonna be. But this is the first conference Dennis is gonna be speaking at on stage in a very long time. He's been historically boycotted. I think that's very bullish.

32:36Rod Palmer I don't know. What I've been paying attention to is the the annual first year signaling Super Bowl of the Plebs crashing out about the conference. There's there's never been a conference lineup. There's never been there's never been a conference pure enough for the Plebs

32:53Rod Palmer when it comes to the Valentine's conference. Now the Plebs did have their alternative conference, you know, kinda like the Turning Point USA alternative

33:04Rod Palmer Super Bowl at BitBlock Boom a week or so ago and that seems to just like the TP USA alternative Super Bowl halftime show, was very popular

33:19Rod Palmer with boomers. I think every picture I saw from BitBlock Boom had a, like, 8020% ratio of gray hair to, you know,

33:31Rod Palmer anyone 40.

33:34Richard Greaser I didn't see any pictures from BitBlock Boom. I knew it was happening, but I didn't really hear I mean, the reason why I knew it was happening was because, Rudy Rudy Dazzlewort did the reporting on Jimmy Song's note article, and, Jimmy was plugging his, talk he was gonna make at Big Block Boom about why the plug should fund his note development. Was there was there really anything interesting that happened at it?

34:04Rod Palmer Well, that's that's, you know, subjective, but, I don't I no. I think the most noteworthy thing to come out of Bitbloc Boom was production ready. I mean, I don't know. You read, and you said you and Rudy Dazleworth did the,

34:27Rod Palmer reading of the production ready essay or whatever that that Jimmy wrote. I have not read it in full. I have not listened to Rudy Dazleworth in full. Can you explain why Plebs should be excited and donate to this production ready? It's essentially just another fork of core. Correct?

34:47Richard Greaser Yeah. It was, it was it was a true fine piece of, Plebslot. They're like it won a Plebslot Pulitzer for a reason. And, you know, Jimmy was kinda all over the place with this article. He, you know, started the article off by saying that

35:08Richard Greaser there's only two Bitcoin implementations, knots and, core. There there needs to be a third because, competition

35:21Richard Greaser breeds, you know, better outcome and, you know, he later goes on to kinda backtrack in the article and mention all of the other Bitcoin implementation. He didn't mention BugleCore. But, you know, for for those that don't know, there are I don't know, I don't know how many total, but probably close to somewhere between a half dozen and a dozen different

35:47Richard Greaser implementations that are all, you know, somewhat different from each other. Yeah. And then he he went on to justify, like, why instead of writing a whole new implementation from scratch, why it's better to to fork it. But he he seems to think that he can create a node that

36:14Richard Greaser node software that or node implementation that is more optimized for the club's needs, and he doesn't feel that that Bitcoin Core in its default settings is optimized, so he wants to, you know, tweak some parameters to make it friendlier for Plebs to operate and,

36:34Rod Palmer It's essentially a it's called production ready, but it's really virtue signal ready. This is an out of the box solution for plebs who are dis they feel disenfranchised by what's going on with knots and bip 110. They feel like they don't want to be a part of this cultural art fork that Luke and and Mckayanae have and Crater have kind of

37:03Rod Palmer you know, we talked about this with Canadians, right? Like, they just going along with things because they hated Core, they hated Shinobi, they hated being called retarded all the time by Shinobi, and they just wanted to go along with this alternative. And now, they're being hard forked from the culture and they're like, I don't want I don't want I don't want this. I don't want to be hard forked off the culture. I want to be able to virtue signal on with a new node that is not obsessed with CSAM and all these

37:33Rod Palmer accusations and all this just all this cultural conflict. I want to be a part of Bitcoin, I want to be a part of the mainstream culture, but I want to virtually signal with a in a more conservative fashion. Yeah, pretty much. And and and and to donate, have something to donate to, a nice non profit to donate to, to kind of put some money behind my virtue signaling?

37:58Richard Greaser Well, his his criticism of the other node developments or or, sorry, node implementations was, I mean, it's not hard to anybody can create a production ready node. You you just go to GitHub and you just fork, you know, whichever implementation, whether it's in 20 or whatever.

38:22Richard Greaser Yeah. You can go fork version 28, which is kinda what it seems like he's doing. And you have a production ready node. You can, you know, market it however you want and explain it however you want. But his his big complaint of the other

38:41Richard Greaser implementations that have existed is that they've they've never you you know, and some of them have existed for a while, is that they never got any any traction or adoption. And, he he didn't really explain how he's gonna, you know, solve that issue of how his, node implementation is gonna get any traction or adoption.

39:05Richard Greaser I mean, it seems like the the plums have moved on to other pastures. Like, they're they're more focused on, you know, running hash rate right now than they are running nodes. So he he's kind of, I I think the timing of the launch is, you know, significantly

39:28Richard Greaser off. It doesn't matter which influencers he has with him, if it's Parker Lewis or, you know, whoever. I I just don't think the the plebs care anymore. Like, they're they're focused on other things and running hash rate.

39:41Rod Palmer Well, this this running hash rate, I feel like is a potentially a big misstep because they have 20% of the node

39:54Rod Palmer in terms of, you know, the nominal node count, the nominal vote in democracy if that's how they think about it. But, by now tracking the the hash rate that they control through their rent, you know, control in quotation marks

40:14Rod Palmer the the the hash they're renting. They now have a dashboard tracking that and it's they've got 20% of the nodes but they do not have 20% of a hash rate. They only have 1% of a hash rate. They don't have half percent of a hash rate. So, kind of seeing this these dashboards side by side, it kind of betrays the reality that

40:37Rod Palmer yeah, your node matters but it doesn't not every node matters equally and the hash rate behind the type, you know, the node itself, that software itself is a huge part of the equation when it comes to consensus. And you could have 80% of the of the node count,

40:57Rod Palmer less than 1% of the hash rate, you're really kind of irrelevant. As these are this just shows you how these nodes are not economic nodes in the sense of of being a rival to whatever the consensus is whether it's core, makes a little Bitcoin, makes with Rust Bitcoin, mixed with the Python thing, whatever. It's it's they're way behind.

41:22Richard Greaser You know, historically, like, virtue signaling is only effective if it doesn't really bear cost. And, you know, this is you know, like, what did it cost to put a I stand with Ukraine flag in your yard?

41:40Richard Greaser Nothing. What did it cost to post a a black square on Instagram when George Floyd, died? Nothing. What did it cost to buy

41:52Richard Greaser a start nine node? $900, which is, like, you know, for the average club, that's like a week's paycheck. You know what I mean? It's like in their ability to afford. What's the cost of running a significant amount of hash rate? It's astronomical.

42:12Richard Greaser Mining is expensive. It's difficult. And so, you know, from, like, a tactic standpoint, it's it's one of like, if they think this is the route for them to get their, you know, opinions heard like, when virtue signaling meets mining,

42:31Richard Greaser it's gonna be their undoing at the end of the day. Because they're they're they're not economic actors in the ability to they they don't control any money. Like, there's been this discussion around the economic node, which, you know, really upsets them, you know, because they they're under the opinion all nodes matter,

42:56Richard Greaser not just, you know, economic ones. And, yeah, I I agree. I think this is very, like, tactical, like, poor thought out plan.

43:09Rod Palmer And, and they I don't know what's going through their heads. I don't know if these guys use first principles thinking. But, in order to control whatever you want to call it with rental hash, enough of the network, enough of the mining to pull off their BIP 110, their soft fork,

43:30Rod Palmer by the time they get up to, you know, if they tried a 51% attack with rental hash, this is going to drive the cost of of host mining astronomically. They're gonna lose a lot of money in the process, but just getting that high enough to signal for these dip one ten blocks is not enough.

43:51Rod Palmer They're gonna have to continue to rent this hash to enforce the consensus rules after the signaling. And, you know, for now, most of these miners are probably happy to just rent out hash to these plebs at a super high premium. I mean, you're paying they're paying their operational costs, they're paying their their CapEx, their capital expenditures, they're paying a risk premium, they're paying a premium on the margin. The miners are lot we're loving it. They're they'll gladly rent this hash out to Plex all day. And

44:26Rod Palmer even if it gets up to a significant point where it's like 50%, they'll continue to do that. However, if it if they run this hash to to support bit one ten, which would be harmful, I think at most miners minds to their profits, their revenue long term, harmful to the network long term, a, they'll probably run cold plebs to stop running hash to them. But

44:53Rod Palmer let's say they signal and the software, you know, starts happening and then the plebs all pull their hash, they think that they won, they they stop renting. Well, the miners are just gonna go back and stop signaling and stop, you know, mining these BIP 110 compliant blocks and they're just gonna go back to the most economically rational choice that they have to rent to the ordinals, the scammers, the filter anti filter people the the the scammers, whatever.

45:21Rod Palmer And then it's all for naught. So, like the plaintiffs kind of have to keep putting more money on the table to flush down the toilet. They have to basically lose money in perpetuity in order for them to succeed and then at some point they run out. So, this is like the same argument that they they made against the stammers a few years ago is that this is not an economically

45:44Rod Palmer rational long term plan strategy that they are eventually gonna run out of money and the and the whole charade is over. Well, this is the same thing with plebs running hash. They're eventually gonna run out of money and it's all gonna be I mean, they're they're gonna have sacrificed an incredible amount of of capital, hard work that they put in at their jobs to to virtually signal and it's just all gonna be for nothing.

46:09Richard Greaser I mean, this is just how people have to learn sometimes is, you know, facing real economic consequences. And I guess, you know, the the benefit of this situation is that there are real economic consequences where, you know, prior going on Twitter and and posting that Gloria isn't hot, there was no economic consequence to that. It's just the I mean, this is like,

46:37Richard Greaser you know, what many, you know, people were talking about for a long time is like the free market fixes this. This very well could be a situation of the the free market fixing this. Like, you know, what they're gonna come to realize is that people using

46:56Richard Greaser the Bitcoin blockchain wasn't the spam. It was, the plebs getting out there and, you know, being annoying was the spam.

47:05Rod Palmer It's it's Plebs have not faced the consequences of their actions, more often than not. And this is this is where the it's time to pay the piper. And at the end of this, I think that these plebs are gonna realize they gave up

47:27Rod Palmer a lot of money. A lot of they put up a lot of capital, and they put it in the hands of miners who do not give a fuck about them. And the miners are gonna take that money and they're gonna let them virtue signal, on their machines they're gonna virtue signal all over their ASICs and when it comes time for what acting for when the rubber hits the road, when she gets real, when things matter,

47:53Rod Palmer these miners are gonna say, sorry, pups. Can't do this anymore. We're pulling this. And they'll just take the money and they'll do it's it's it's very it's no different than any of these memecoin, shitcoin rug pulls. It is it's it's all a facade.

48:12Richard Greaser You know, one of the interesting developments that has happened since the release of core v 30 is Slipstream has already, shut down. So

48:27Richard Greaser the question I have in my mind is, is that vindicating for Core and their explanation as to why they raised the op return limit?

48:41Rod Palmer Yeah. Absolutely. The planners are taking credit for the downfall of slipstream, But, again, this is this is just what core was trying to say the whole time. The VINV 30 may have saved Bitcoin. Right? Like, Slipstream, his private mempools could have been very problematic, could have been a disaster

49:05Rod Palmer for Bitcoin. But Core saves Bitcoin in the long term with, the release of Core v 30?

49:12Richard Greaser Yeah. It's, it's hard to tell. Well, folks, I'll try and figure out a way to get an episode out next week. I think it's gonna be hard because we're both gonna be running around the conference. So it might be a little bit different than it normally is. But I'll try and make sure that there's some form of content, but we're gonna be slightly on a break as we're there. I think we're gonna come back with a lot of

49:43Richard Greaser a lot of stuff following it, a lot of content. I'll I'll I'll try and record with some people at the conference, but it's hard to say, you know, I don't have any plans of, like, streaming. There's no spamming Vegas this year, which I'm sad about, but we'll be doing stuff. There'll there'll be stuff for you to check out. There's gonna be if you're not going, there's gonna be the,

50:09Richard Greaser the RHR event, I think, it's not gonna be streamed, but it'll be published. And then the, the Las Vegas event, the Tunster stream will be happening. There'll there'll be some cool musicians, performing at that, so look forward to that. I think Tatum's gonna be DJ

50:29Richard Greaser ing some of my songs, and, yeah, we'll see. But you got any topics you want to wrap up or put a bow on before we go to the fountain bush?

50:45Rod Palmer No. I think we'll, we'll try to have a, a a good surprise, a good, episode for you next week with, we'll be able to record it live together. I think it'll be I think you'll like it. Whatever ends up being.

51:02Richard Greaser Well, first boost, late stage huddle 6,006 sat says, keep up the good work, gents. I almost crashed out yesterday paying my taxes. Barely afforded them this year. Hate I won't be able to see y'all at the Podkoff Super Bowl. Sounds like a fun event with our HR and Pubkey. Yeah. We'll miss you. We'll get a chance to hang out this year, though. Look forward to seeing you at late stage huddle.

51:27Rod Palmer Andrew, listen to this before the conference starts and you're gonna be at the conference, you're gonna be in Vegas, make sure you get your tickets to the Hot Style Takeover three on April 27 at the The Venetian at the Tau nightclub. It's incredible.

51:46Rod Palmer Carnival ballroom or stage. We're very we wouldn't describe it. I will unfortunately not be there. I will not make it. I have some, some other, you know,

51:60Rod Palmer things I have to do that preclude me from making it. But it will still be great. Richard will be there. I think Aaron, Redwing will be there. She'll she'll be in my stead. So she's hotter than me anyway and my and probably more interesting and more funny so, it's definitely worth checking out. The, Nest Boost

52:21Rod Palmer and you wanna open this one up, I think this is one of those that, it's cut off. The brain rot you're thinking, this is from Katie, 2300 stats. The brain rot you're thinking of from Gen X was manufactured bubble gum pop like New Kids, Ah, On the Block, Spice Girls, Anson, and SugarDoys shows like Full House, Saved by the Bell, and Day Watch. Definitely not Grunge, certainly not Tool. Why you dogging Tool? Or why you doggone Gen xers? Blaze and Zoomers is not even mentioning

52:50Rod Palmer epic rot levels of the Millennials. I'm on the cusp, but I would claim Gen X on tool alone. There's nothing wrong with tool and they made some great music Maynard's kind of a litard, but they make some great music. It's it's the Jet Xers lack of ability lack of self awareness to realize that

53:18Rod Palmer their culture is not that innovative not that interesting to other generations. It's it's the Gen Xers overall lack of self awareness

53:31Rod Palmer culturally that is it's it's it's doing more harm to them than anyone else. But it's you're right, I mean Millennials have their own problems. Zoomers are retarded. Boomers,

53:45Rod Palmer we've we don't have to go into we've talked about boomers endlessly on the show. The Gen X seems to have and at least when I was growing up had this reputation for being like cool and like non compliant and kind of just the the generation that was just too cool for school and they just don't deserve it. I think they just need to be called out. They haven't had as much criticism as the other generations and they deserve it.

54:15Richard Greaser Yeah. They they haven't had criticism because they've just been so culturally irrelevant. You know, John Di Giacomo did a really good article picking apart. He he wasn't specifically picking apart Gen x, but he essentially was picking apart Gen x on, on governable misfits, talking about,

54:33Richard Greaser you know, how they were all, like, punk rockers and, you know, whatever and then turned into being gay corporate shills.

54:43Rod Palmer Right.

54:44Richard Greaser And, that that's a good one. I I forgot what the title of his article was, but, you know, go check it out on the, Uncomfortable Misfits. He he writes some good stuff over there now and again. But, I don't know. I mean, it's like millennials, like, what was our brain rot?

55:06Richard Greaser Guitar Hero. It was, like Guitar Hero put millennials in touch with

55:14Rod Palmer Email music?

55:17Richard Greaser Well, I mean, it's just like I'm wearing girl pants. Halo. Halo's pretty dope. Linkin Park. But Linkin Park is a 100 times better than grunge at the end of the day. That's undisputed. Kid Cudi.

55:35Richard Greaser Yeah. I guess Kid Cudi. I mean, he was I don't know. I just hate grunge music. I I think grunge music is trash. It I it's like the it's like the mumble rap of rock.

55:49Rod Palmer I mean, listen listen to any mumble rapper. You can understand more of the lyrics than anything Tooljam is ever saying. Oh, what the fuck are you saying, dude? Pearl Jam sucks. Stop listening to Pearl Jam.

56:07Richard Greaser Pearl Jam is atrocious. It's like people like to shit on Nickelback. Nickelback's a 100 times better than Pearl Jam. JetX deserve it, and and part of the reason why they deserve it is because they they are the critics of everybody else. They are the loudest critics. And,

56:25Rod Palmer it it Everybody blames the boomers for like the attacks on the millennials, like millennials are ruining this, millennials are ruining that, but it wasn't the boomers. The boomers financed those articles, but they were all written by Gen Xers.

56:37Richard Greaser Used to read a lot. 2,000 says, if part four of the hero series doesn't make you wanna build, I don't know what will. Yeah. I've been I've been working through in my head, you know, what I'm gonna do more episodes similar to that. I don't know if I have, like, a series in me, but I I do want to do a series on the importance of media at some point. So I've started working through that in my head. So look out for that probably in

57:08Richard Greaser May. I'll start publishing stuff like that again. Thanks for listening to that episode. Used to read a lot. Appreciate it. Thank you for the boost.

57:18Rod Palmer Next boost from Sasha, Sasha Hodder, January hat. Eleventhree's voice for Justin and Haldemont. Hilarious. And I think the interesting part of this boost is the way she spells Haldemont here. Tell like

57:33Rod Palmer most people spell donut, d o n u T, but the correct way is d o n a u g h t. And she spells hobble not the same way, h o d l n a u g h t. That's how I'm gonna start spelling it from now on actually. I think that's the correct way. As a journalist, that's our job is to do things, the credentialed way. So that's the new credentialed way to spell Haldolot. Thank you for the boost, Sasha.

57:60Richard Greaser Yeah, appreciate it. Next page from Loges. 2,000 says it's important to study the game tapes, and then, shares a meme of Radiohead. Is this a real album cover?

58:18Richard Greaser Mumblemoans?

58:19Rod Palmer No. No. Mumble Mumblemoans is, this is a joke. It's but it's, it's playing off the one of their real album coverage. Listen, it is the hail to the thief, the 2003 album. Next boost is from

58:40Rod Palmer Sasha Hodder again. 1,300 SATS. Oh, wow. Blar, LOL. I went to a concert once. Had no idea what I was about to be in for. And then there's a blood emoji. And if you haven't been to a Goire concert, make sure if you do go that you take a raincoat.

58:60Rod Palmer Act like you're going to, like, a Gallagher show when he smashes the watermelons, you're gonna get a lot of, fake blood sprayed on you at the Gaur show.

59:08Richard Greaser I gotta say, I kinda wanna go to a Gaur show. Not not to get spray fake blood sprayed on me, but, you know, it it does sound fun. Rev Huddl, July says, the biggest problem with the old way of podcasting is the podcasters are monetizing

59:27Richard Greaser their audience by selling someone else's stuff via sponsorships. Podcasting two point o monetizes the actual value the podcast delivers. Start a podcast to sell your value, not someone else's slot. Podcasting two point o is it it is, you know, it has potential, but the the problem

59:49Richard Greaser with Podcasting two point o is the listener base, like, the reason why this exists and the market dynamics exist of, you know, pubs are more willing to buy trinkets than they are to directly fund podcasters. Like, there's more money in reflings

1:00:08Richard Greaser and sponsorships. Like the, you know, the the trinket seller company, they make their money back based on the the podcast sponsorships. And, the podcaster, just can't compete with that. And and and what's

1:00:28Richard Greaser really kind of fascinating because, like, you go into the Fiat value for value world. Like, you watch some of these YouTube streams. Like, I've been watching this weather guy, Ryan Hall, and the guy earns, like, $10,000 a stream.

1:00:47Richard Greaser You you watch a lot of these streamers, and the the amount of super chats they get are just unbelievable. So yeah. I don't know. I mean, it's it's like the the mechanism is there, but until, you know, the audience realizes the importance of actually funding the the podcaster,

1:01:10Richard Greaser I don't think anything's gonna really change, and and and the value for value ecosystem isn't really gonna take off.

1:01:18Rod Palmer Yep. Alright, guys. I gotta jump. I gotta catch a plane to Bakersfield to cover a Bitcoin meetup, live and in person, but Richard is we'll finish the boost. If you guys are gonna be in Vegas, I'll see you there.

1:01:34Richard Greaser Good luck on, your flight. Talk to you soon, Rod. Next boost from nope. 500 sats. Cigarette, cigarette, cigarette, podcast, fire emoji.

1:01:49Richard Greaser Fears clinking. Silas Thornbrook, a 121 sats, says cheer to the Beagle crew, especially Kralie. Thank you. I'm glad you like Kralie. She she's fun to watch, I would say. Very strange, but I I just don't understand the the Zoomer slop culture, but she seems dialed into that. Noster gang, 101

1:02:12Richard Greaser sats. BTC on board, thumbs up, salute emoji. Folks, thank you for tuning in to this edition of EVA Weekly.

1:02:25Richard Greaser And, we'll see you at something next week. I don't know what it's gonna look like, but we'll see you at something next week. Talk to you soon.

1:02:50Unknown And steel A long nice chase and a power deal But I found me a way that don't cost the same Just a click in a contract in somebody else's name Yeah, I know it ain't mine But it feels real close like I'm cutting in line where the river flows. Ain't the work I'm doing, it's the work I least. But it pays, I clean and it lets me sleep. It's rent to all. That's what I'm telling myself, little piece of freedom sitting up on a shelf ain't build nothing but I'm acting like I have, stacking up dreams I ain't really had. It's a free lunch, so that's how it seems out here. You're buying time with somebody else's machine. Yeah, I'm dancing on a line. I don't quite own. Call it freedom.

1:03:39Unknown Call it rent to own. Call it rent to own. Yeah, she don't care where the money comes from. Just that we're laughing in the Southern sun. Barefoot nights nights in a Silverado, talking about land like it's tomorrow

1:04:04Unknown I tell her baby we're almost there Like an urn is alive like I built somewhere But the truth sits quiet I pay those

1:04:27Rod Palmer dues. Guess it's easy when you never lose. As rent's all,

1:04:32Unknown that's what I believe. If I say it enough, maybe it won't leave like I'm halfway home on the road I skipped on a shortcut deal that never slipped. It's a free ride. Yeah. It feels that way, like a cracker code on a summer day. But the deeper down that feeling goes, the less it feels like a rent to own.

1:04:60Rod Palmer Yeah. The less it feels like a rent to own.

1:05:10Unknown What happens when the And futures I ain't had to burn for But there's quiet voice I can't outrun Singing, sun Nothing's ever won Yeah, the numbers climb Yeah, the charts look clean. Yeah, I play the part in the in between. But deep down, I know what I don't say out loud. I'm just riding waves. I ain't allowed. Spread the phone. Yeah, sing it

1:06:04Unknown comes due till the sun goes down on borrowed view And the thing I thought I'd call my own Was just another man's rent to own Yeah, the summer fades like it always does Leaves you asking what it really was All that freedom I was leaning on

1:06:30Unknown Felt so right
