0:01Richard Greaser I'm a retarded pleb. And while you're on the interstate commuting to work, I'm behind the wheel of my 6,000 pound SUV doing 85 while staring at my phone checking the price of Bitcoin and looking at plebslop. World's highest IQ, of course, he's bullish. And if you don't have the right insurance, one breaking tweet by Pete Rizzo could lead to a t bone and not the type that goes with eggs. So get car insurance from First Amendment Mutual. First Amendment Mutual protects you from the mayhem caused by retarded plebs.

0:42Rod Palmer This is it. The fourth of July has come and gone. We'll get into our how our fourth of Julys were, but it's always been this way. As soon as Donald Trump brokered peace in Iran, the SpaceX could IPO, so America could have

1:00Rod Palmer a good birthday. When the when the when the corrupt European FIFA officials tried to suspend our top

1:12Rod Palmer scoring goal player in in World Cup soccer. Donald Trump got him back in. Now World Cup soccer team, America sucks soccer, and we always will, but we had hoped. We had hoped for a minute. We had a bird we had a really good birth 200

1:30Rod Palmer birthday party. But the party's over. And as soon as Monday came along, we restarted the war in Iran. And more importantly, Bitcoin, we we started the countdown to the mandatory signaling period

1:46Rod Palmer for the PLED activated slot fork. It won 10. All this trauma that's been culminating for past over a year. All of the the the AI stand up apply, you know, standing ovations at conferences for mechanic,

2:03Rod Palmer all of the the CSAM accusations, the vibe coding, date and own, Chris Kuida tormenting Bitcoin core core developers and core supporters,

2:17Rod Palmer peppering them with questions endlessly on Twitter. The fighting, the intrigue, it's all coming to a head, and now everybody who's been trying to avoid it is here. You know? This is like this is like the World Cup exactly. Like, nobody take nobody in The United States, nobody watches soccer. And then the World Cup comes and everybody tunes in because then we get to see

2:38Rod Palmer who the champion will be. And that's what's happening in Bitcoin. The ultimate showdown to the soft fork activation and everybody is now tuning in and the key fabe is never been thicker. And the Fabians are coming to trying to poop on our nodes,

2:56Rod Palmer trying to spray paint JPEGs on the side of the Sistine Chapel, and it's it's time to find out. Would the plebs be able to keep Fabians pooping on their notes? And it right now, it doesn't look good, Fine. It is too early it's too early for the plebisc

3:18Rod Palmer to give up, for Luke to give up, and I think we're gonna see the psy ops, the civil spoofing, the prediction market manipulation, the podcast, you know, the podcasters taking sides and embracing and extracting as much clays out of this situation as they possibly can because what comes after this? How are you going to get clays after this? How are you going to get engagement

3:44Rod Palmer after this saga ends? Nobody knows. Some people think the plebs are gonna team up with Fred Kruger to try to solve quantum, but nobody knows. And everybody's gotta get as much delays out of this situation as possible

3:59Speaker 4 before it's too late. This is an exciting time. I mean, the, the Fabians, they're they're looting the world economy right now. They're taking all the assets from the plagues. The plagues, instead of retaining any sort of wealth, they're they're fighting for scraps of glaze. And, we we've seen these alternate currencies

4:21Speaker 4 come up, and I think this is the the future of monetary the the the future monetary order. This is the the great reset in practice right now. In many ways, the you'll own nothing and and be happy was kind of a a mis misleading statement because you will own Glaze, the currency of the plaives, the currency of the future. The the Cathavians, they don't they don't care about Glaze from the plaives.

4:49Speaker 4 They don't need the Glades of the the Plebs. Plebs sure need the Glades. But it has been a dramatic weekend or week in general. You know, the Americans lost to sports ball. Donald Trump was, you know, frustrated about that. He thought this was gonna be his, like, Nelson Mandela Invictus

5:09Speaker 4 moment where he was gonna you know, if you're familiar with the the story there, Nelson Mandela, glazed the mostly white rugby team, and they won the World Cup

5:24Speaker 4 long ago, shortly after he became president. And, Trump thought this was, like, his legacy, his future. You know, him as president, you know, Americans were a long shot in the World Cup, that they were gonna win. And so he's been crashing out and started a new bombing campaign in Iran. So it seems like the Strait Of Hormuz is once again closed. But yeah. I mean

5:51Rod Palmer I mean, you could you could do and the Federal Reserve should study the correlation between, you know, the glaze contraction in the market

6:05Rod Palmer to when the straight o Hormoneus is closed. When straight o Hormoneus is closed, Glaze runs very tight, very expensive, and it doesn't come easy. When the straight o Hormoneus is open, there's much more attention situation that that that the plebs can monitor. They don't they don't have to necessarily focus their attention on national security issues. And you have to, you know, there's people who are trading and counter trading the president's

6:36Rod Palmer announcements about the Strait Of Armades, about Iran, shorting shorting oil, shorting gold, and then, you know, simultaneously laboring up long on it, hedging on prediction markets. The most savvy

6:51Rod Palmer plebs and influencers on the timeline are doing the same exact thing with Glaze. They're bidding up Glaze markets and then extracting when they, you know, when they see the momentum turning, the situation becoming more

7:07Rod Palmer dynamic and kinetic. And and and the glaze markets, they seize up. And we're this is gonna go back and forth. But right now, it's not just young people,

7:21Rod Palmer and it's not just millennials and Zoomers who are jockeying and fighting for your chance to see the foundation of their social capital into as the as the first turning really starts to move fast, starts to accelerate and even the boomers are having to get involved.

7:42Rod Palmer A lot of boomers thought I'm gonna retire. I'm gonna retire on, you know, I'm gonna have my Bitcoin or I'm going to my, my, my stretch or my, my MSTY I'm going to get my dividends to go to Bitcoin Beach. I'm going to go to whatever. I'm going to enjoy my retirement.

8:01Rod Palmer Hang out with my wife or whatever it is they want to do their grandkids. And unfortunately, you got, like, you know, Puncher and and George Bodine and all these these boomers who were really big into the space of scene. They've gotta spend their retirement fighting Fabians to prevent to prevent the Fabians from pooping on their nose,

8:23Rod Palmer from disrespecting them in their golden years, their bit their orange years. Their orange years were expected they expected them to be beyond their wildest dreams instead, it's beyond their wildest nightmares. They are still jockeying for to try to save Bitcoin. And they thought

8:43Rod Palmer Zoomers would come up behind them and and be the warriors of the future. And the Zoomers, they don't seem to care.

8:52Speaker 4 They they're the ones spanning Bitcoin, if anything. It's a generational battle. Yeah. What what we're seeing right now is is really there's a massive divide in in class, the, you know, the pump class is really, really suffering right now. And, you know, the the elitist class seems to be, you know, doing fairly well because they they just don't understand the currency of value at play here. There's a there's a huge information arbitrage that's happening. The

9:24Speaker 4 the plabs are learning that there there's no actual reward for purity tokens, for passing purity tests. Like, there's no monetization pathway for it. And the individuals that that care the least about the purity test and are pooping on their notes are finding, you know, massive

9:45Speaker 4 path forward to monetization. And it's unsettling for them. I mean, you you look at the the battle happening between Justin Belcher and David Bailey. David Bailey is, I don't know if there's a purity test he hasn't failed this year. I don't I don't think he's We talked about this. We talked we we scolded creditor

10:07Rod Palmer for still being outraged and and surprised when David Bailey failed the purity test. It it it's like it's like being surprised, shocked, and appalled to wake up in the morning and see the sun is rising in the east. David Bailey's gonna fail a purity test. Michael Sailor is gonna fail more purity tests. And people keep being surprised by the inevitable and that is what I think so many people are

10:33Rod Palmer open once again in talking about TayFate because there's no explanation other than that, than how people can continue to be surprised

10:45Speaker 4 by the inevitable. Well, I mean I think it's like, you know, faked outrage. It's a way to get glazed. Fundamentals is out there on on on his podcast talking about all the reaction videos that he's been watching recently. He's watching black people reaction videos, and, he's been very impressed by just, like, how good they are.

11:05Rod Palmer That's yeah. I mean, the best example of this. This is not just fun I mean, fundamentals is probably watching some esoteric black, you know, reaction videos. But one of the most popular posts on the timeline is in a big game in the World Cup, Especially like like when Messi misses or makes his penalty kicks in the Gold Cup, they immediately pay in to iShowSpeed. IShowSpeed is one of the best black reaction influencers

11:33Rod Palmer to ever do it. I mean, if you don't recognize that name, if you saw a video of iShow Speed, he's he he I think he's probably a millennial. He was a little bit young. He's he's a black guy. He's got a brothel haircut, and he he always has the the camera up close to his face, and he always makes this crazy reaction to anything that happens. Like, super surprised, super like, oh my gosh. I can't even believe it. They're so good at it. When Lionel Messi scores a goal, first thing the whole internet does is look the iShowSpeech reaction. And being good

12:08Rod Palmer at reacting to the situation as it unfolds just live on the timeline is is worth an incredible amount of glaze right now. Mhmm. It's it's like the

12:21Speaker 4 the In motion version of an open mouth thumbnail in many ways.

12:26Rod Palmer There you go. Exactly. And it's also hard for AI to capture a real a a genuinely shocked, surprised, good or bad, reaction phase.

12:40Rod Palmer It's just not there yet. So when when yeah.

12:45Speaker 4 Well, the the reason why the pleb is drawn to this so much is, you know, the the pleb walks through life looking at other people as a source of feedback to try and figure out how to to think and how to feel. You know, they they sit on the fence looking at everybody around them, trying to determine what what is the safest way to respond to whatever situation for them to be in the in crowd. And the reaction video in many ways is providing the source of feedback that they want. So they they have these YouTube channels with these guys like Meet Kevin and what what's the something gold?

13:25Speaker 4 His name's not I wanna say Asanoa Gold, but it's definitely not Asanoa. You you know what I'm talking about. It's just like this this, like, 30 year old, like, Twitch streamer that used to play video games and now it doesn't Asanoa Gold. Asanoa Gold. Yeah. And they they sit there and they have these, like, very animated responses, like, with their their faces and and they do all this emotion.

13:45Rod Palmer Right? Joe Biden. Yeah. So Joe Biden is a there's a king of this. If you ever see the Joe Biden podcast, I was telling a pleb this the other day. The plebs need to tell the little plebs slap bedtime stories that they tell themselves about saving Bitcoin to Joe Budden and listen to Joe Budden's reaction because plebs are not getting good feedback. They're not getting good reactions to what they're talking about. And I I like the I like the I like the way you're going with this is what I'm saying.

14:13Speaker 4 Yeah. Well, I mean, you look at simply Bitcoin's success, like, they've been the closest thing to this and Bitcoin, like, Isabella does this too. You know, she's got the, you know, the very animated, like, facial reactions to things. This is this is the language of the plebs. They're looking for a response, and this is why, you know, so many individuals have jumped on the the BIP one ten train that, you know, the the the plaids sitting on the fence looking for you know, they're getting this, like, really animated,

14:47Speaker 4 you you know, response from, you know, the podcasters like Canute or, you know, whoever that are propagating these ideas, and then they're they're listening to, you know, the opposite end of the spectrum of the they they say the devs aren't explaining things to them. The devs will sit down, and they'll they'll give, like, a really

15:09Speaker 4 sophisticated technical explanation of things, but it it doesn't include, like, the open mouth, like, flailing of the arms, you know, high emotion reaction that they want. And so, you know, they just they can't comprehend it because it's a there's a language being spoken that they they don't understand. And, like,

15:34Speaker 4 the the only individual that seems to be doing this anyway representing a contrary opinion to, you know, what what the plebs pope Luke and, you know, mechanic and, you know, these professor Kratter representing is Shinobi. And, you know, Shinobi is not doing the most persuasive

15:57Speaker 4 job because he's he's he's being very animated, but he wears a mask on his face. So they can't see his facial expressions when he's talking. He can't do the open mouth thumbnails, so to say, and he just calls them retarded. You know? And the and pubs don't like to be called retarded. They they like to be glazed at the end of the day. And they'll follow whoever glazes them for, you know, taking a a safe opinion, even if it's means that they're, like, lemmings running off the cliff. And so,

16:28Speaker 4 this is why we're seeing the phenomenon that we're seeing right now. And it is fascinating to watch in the the Internet age, the the way these human dynamics are playing out.

16:42Rod Palmer They break this down into, like, one of the to help illustrate illustrate what is going on right now and why it is so dramatic and why it is so seeded and passionate at times is

16:59Rod Palmer in 2021, the block size war book came out and the the great majority of plebs, especially on Bitcoin Twitter, anybody who calls themselves pleb, kinda came into Bitcoin around that time, the 02/2021

17:17Rod Palmer COVID lockdown era of Bitcoin Twitter, really the kick start of Bitcoin's Twitter and the proliferation of Bitcoin podcast. And they read the block size wars. And what they learned from it because what the podcasters learned from it and what the podcasters explained it as was the the node runners, the people who run nodes

17:40Rod Palmer run Bitcoin. They control Bitcoin, not the miners, and that the people who run nodes are protecting and decentralizing the network And the Platas went out and they bought Umbrels, they bought raspy Blisses, they bought these these shiny nose and

17:58Rod Palmer they eventually right, and they eventually get to the point where you've got these $900 SpaceX nodes from Star nine that look like spaceships, and glow and they got LED lights on them, And in these Plebs, they bought these nodes and they they felt, like, patriotic. It was almost like people in February

18:18Rod Palmer 09/11 putting American flags up on their owns. And they they they felt like they were part of an army protecting Bitcoin and that they were noble. And like I said, they put these LED lights on them. They put them they they featured them prominently in their offices, in their man caves, and they desperately wanted people to react to them

18:39Rod Palmer having these notes. They wanted their family, their brother-in-law, their friends, they wanted their coworkers to ask them about their notes. And inevitably, nobody

18:51Rod Palmer did that we ever could hear and that is the the villain origin story of the node runner nobody calls themselves a node runner un ironically

19:05Rod Palmer unless they are in their their dark, brooding, grumpy, about to save Bitcoin. They start they start attacking the scammers. They start they start peppering Ethereum users.

19:18Rod Palmer I can't can you even run a full node? Do you know that in Global South, they can't afford to run an Ethereum archive full archive node? It's ex terabytes of data. Run one of your nodes. But we run one terabyte nodes. We're node runners. To node runner army, started popping up all over Twitter. Everybody, anything shitcoin. First question, how much does it cost

19:42Rod Palmer to run a full archival node on your blockchain? And the no this is like he's this noble this noble cause, this thankless cause, being baked into their identity. And still, nobody cared

19:57Rod Palmer and now we're at this point where they've spent some of them thousands of dollars on these fancy revved up

20:08Rod Palmer rice burner maps and now they're gonna have to buy new hard drives and resync Bitcoin again because the spammers are filling up the blocks with with poop. They're pooping on their expensive SpaceX nodes, they're polishing these things every Sunday. They're polishing their SpaceX nodes so that somebody hopefully will come over for fourth of July and ask, hey, man. What's your running on that machine over there? And they'll get to tell them all about how they're defending Bitcoin. Nobody does. Nobody ever gives them the reaction. They feel like they deserve for being a NodeRunner. They don't get enough glaze for being a NodeRunner.

20:43Rod Palmer And now when when core comes and changes default settings and just disrespects, when Torben Hoddle and the Giggler and Shinobi laugh

20:55Rod Palmer at the plight of the naive NodeRunner, Bill is is through the roof because people are are are attacking their nodes. They're humble, virtuous nodes get enraged to them. They've been they have been seeking Glaze for being a Node Runner

21:13Rod Palmer for going on six years now. And they and they see this opportunity like a new block size war for the Node Runners to put their foot down and say, no, we control the network. And when this does not happen as they expect it will in August, the crash outs are going to set new levels.

21:34Rod Palmer New it's gonna break new records and it's all because they didn't get the reaction. And the plebs now in in in these no burner group chats are the only people that give them react just the reaction that they feel they deserve

21:49Speaker 4 for being a humble, selfless no brainer. Yep. This reminds me a lot of the the situation that happened in 1932 when a group of roughly, you know, 45,000 World War one veterans marched on Washington DC to demand payments from the government that they were, promised. Or, actually, they wanted them, but they they weren't supposed to be paid out until, like, 1945 or something. And,

22:16Speaker 4 they got met with violence from the cops. Cops went and beat them up. You know, they come back from this war. They were dying in the trenches. You know, some of them were had been, like, blinded by, you know, gases or, you know, whatever, extremely traumatized, from being cannon fodder. You know, they watched their friends die in Europe, and, you know, many of them had, you know, forever stinky feet because they were running around in the trenches, and their their their boots were full of, you know, mud and water. You know? Some of them their their toes froze off, and, they're met with army. Army showed up, and under the command of general Douglas MacArthur,

22:56Speaker 4 they, shot tear gas at these guys and, you know, chased them around with bayonets, and even tanks were used to to clear out the camps that they were living in. And I I think this is how the plebs feel right now is they they felt like they were securing the Bitcoin network. They came in after the block size wars. They fought the shitcoiners with Corey and the Swans. And, yeah, they they had their RGB nodes. They spent a bunch of money, and they they they feel like they deserve valor. They feel like they deserve clays, and they feel disrespected

23:28Speaker 4 by the devs. They feel like the devs are like president Hoover chasing them around with the army. And, they expected this was the cycle, that they would have gone the super cycle. They were reading Samson Mao's tweets. Their payment, instead of payment for the government, their payment was gonna be the God candle. Trump was gonna come in, they voted for Trump, They were gonna get the SBR. All the institutions would come in. The paper Bitcoiners would, you know, make them super rich. You know, they were front running BlackRock. Now BlackRock and Morgan Stanley and all these guys are gonna, you know, pump their bags and, you know, buy their Bitcoin off of them for, you know, a significant amount. And and all these old boomer Bitcoiners, you know, would be able to

24:12Speaker 4 afford, like, a really nice retirement home. They they feel like the promise They got real estate instead of the bills. Yeah. They they were gonna buy real estate from all the Fiat people for pennies on the dollar, for science on the tether. And, it just didn't happen. Didn't happen the way that they they thought it would, it was going to. I mean, they they they married themselves to the Pub Slop narratives, and all their models were destroyed. And now they're looking for somebody to blame.

24:42Speaker 4 And they're they're looking for a way to retain or regain a semblance of dignity, and this is their attempt to. But And then and it it

24:53Rod Palmer and and this, it depends. It's just not going well. They're they're digging a deeper hole a lot. Betty, let's face it most of the people engaged in the most embarrassing behavior are uncles, they're uncles and

25:12Rod Palmer there's a lot of uncles embarrassing their nephews right now with their behavior and their actions trying to prevent the the Fabians from pooping on their nets. There's a there's a right way to keep the Fabians from pooping on your nose

25:28Rod Palmer and there's a wrong way. And a lot of people are going about it the wrong way. I nobody wants to hear this, but Bitcoin Core and Gloria had the appropriate reaction

25:43Rod Palmer to trying

25:45Speaker 4 to keep Fabians from pooping on your note. Luke and the Plebs are not handling it well. If Gloria's response, like, you know, if the the shitcoiners or, you know, the spammers or whatever, they're gonna be pooping the middle street, might as well give them a toilet to poop in. Right. Okay. Spammers, go poop in the toilet.

26:02Rod Palmer If the Fabians do manage to get through your filters in your in your security, and they find themselves inside of your $900 SpaceX node and they do poop,

26:16Rod Palmer don't you wanna be able to prune and wipe that poop away? Of course, you don't want to have your nose stained with coke forever. You want to give them a toilet. You want to give them something where you can flush the poop out of your nose.

26:32Rod Palmer That's all Gloria did. It's all it's all Bitcoin Core did. They they they let you flush your note to get the Fabian poop out of there. And

26:45Rod Palmer the the club's reaction doesn't make any sense. The bit misses why people are giving them so much shit. No pun intended. Because they don't know that the solution is right in front of their face, and they're they're crashing out refusing to accept it. Core v 30 was essentially like a bidet for the Plubs' notes. But yeah.

27:04Speaker 4 Anyway, so, you know, the Plubs are all caught up. They're they're trying to amass as much glaze as possible. Sam Altman understands what's at play here. Do you see Sam Altman's pushing for the US government to take a stake in OpenAI?

27:18Rod Palmer Yeah. I think this has been this has been a a narrative, something that the both Anthropic and OpenAI have been pitching to the government for a while now, and something that Trump and even Bernie Sanders have been saying for a while now that for various different reasons, I think that some people want the government wants stake in AI because they see

27:44Rod Palmer the fat the insane amount of value. Basically, the, you know, the AI companies are gonna have to be printing the money for the government before too long. The Fed's not gonna be able to do it anymore. And they see that and they, they want equity. They want equity in these private companies. It's no different than, you know, Venezuela wants the equity in the oil, the Venezuela oil companies, but that's neither here nor there. And the, the AI companies want this because a, it provides them a huge moat.

28:14Rod Palmer The government is incentivized to, you know, let them make as much money as possible and let their and and prevent their competitors from making any money. And they also want

28:29Rod Palmer they also want I mean, these AI companies aren't making any money at all. They're making zero profits. They have huge stand. They want subsidized, you know, they wanna be subsidized so that they can continue to just spend tons of money with with fewer incentives to ever make, you know, a product that

28:50Rod Palmer is profitable, generates revenue, makes it worth all this spend. Well, I think, you know, I've got

28:56Speaker 4 a I've got a little bit different take on it. I mean, it's you know, the the AI companies, they're running out of VC money. We see this happen all the time with the, you know, Bitcoin companies. There's, like, two things that happen. One is which, you know, you fire all your your marketing and and subsidization, like, you know, you turn into a company like Swan.

29:18Speaker 4 Swan's a good example of, like, what happens when the VC money runs out and you didn't execute properly. And, you know, the the other, you know, option is you you actually like, once you run out of the VC money, you're, like, actually trying develop a product to generate revenue. Right?

29:37Speaker 4 And they realize, you know, as the plums continue to get looted and like, the the the plums are are not good customers for these doodads, like, when they raise the price up to where they need to be without the subsidization. Right? But they also realize, like, the plabs

29:56Speaker 4 don't care about money anymore. They just want glaze at the end of the day. They wanna be glazed and confused. That's just, you know, the extent of what they they want so that, you know, they they're looking for government. They want glaze and circuses. Yep. Exactly.

30:14Speaker 4 And so the demand, which these AI companies, you know, believe, like, the demand for their products is gonna be, you know, coming from the government at the end of the day. So they're they're looking for instead of VC subsidization, they're looking for government

30:32Speaker 4 subsidization. And it's a good marriage between AI do that companies and and government because, you know, governments, like, when the when the glaze runs out, the plums are gonna show up at their doorstep with pitchforks and put their heads on spikes. And the government doesn't want that to happen at all. Neither neither do the tech executives.

30:57Speaker 4 And so if they're able to get the subsidization, they're gonna keep the doodads going, and they're gonna be able to give all the plums glaze. And like one of the things that's very clear about these social media platforms, which we operate on right now, is there there's no way to differentiate the difference between a pleb and a bot. And I I think it's just gonna get harder and harder and harder to differentiate those two things.

31:25Speaker 4 And so you can have all these, like, little social ecosystems, these little sandbox happening where, you know, the plums are hanging out. They're getting their bangers boosted by who knows who. And they're they're gonna be just, like, in in Glaze heaven at the end of the day. They can barely afford anything around them, but they're getting a significant amount of glaze, and so therefore, they're happy. And we've seen this. I mean, this is the the the majority of the state of California. This is already their existence. You got guys living in their cars, but the weather's nice, and they've got glaze, so they're happy. And this is what they wanna do is they wanna export this, you know, to the rest of the country and the rest of the world. Reading I'm reading in the group chat right now, and I'm I'm really hoping there's a recording

32:12Rod Palmer of this. Apparently, Astanoa Gold got interrupted on Spaces tonight because you could hear in the background, like, a woman, sound like maybe his wife or something, was was was yelling at him for arguing about cartoon pictures on Spaces. So many so his wife is is was yelling at me. You're arguing, but you're we're you're arguing about the Fabians, paper it on your nose on Spaces again, aren't you? You didn't even take out the trash. Didn't do the dishes for trying to have family dinner, and you're arguing about cartoon pictures on Spaces. This

32:44Rod Palmer is this is exactly what we're talking about. This is it is crash outs. I don't know. We we keep saying this. We keep saying the crash outs are gonna keep accelerating, that the crash outs are gonna keep get keep getting bigger. But I guess my only question would be, have we done wrong? Crashouts getting bigger? Yeah. But the crashouts continuing getting more frequent and getting more severe. Have we been wrong? I don't think so. No. I think it's been

33:07Speaker 4 continuing to be accurate. I think we're even our expectations have been exceeded in what in what we've seen. You know, Plumbe Cruise crash out over the last couple weeks has been impressive. You know, Tomer's been in a consistent state of crash out.

33:24Speaker 4 Huddl knot, I guess, one of the big things, Huddl not crashed out so hard that he's quitting Twitter

33:32Rod Palmer for extended period of time. I I heard that, I heard that Huddl not may have may have deactive or gotten off Twitter so he could go, apparently his cousin is Erling Haaland, the

33:50Rod Palmer the Norwegian soccer player. He was going to watch his cousin beat Brazil in the World Cup. And that'd be crazy if Erling Hall the best soccer player in the world is that that's Hall Millon's cousin. That'd be great. I mean, Er Erling Hall and seems like he is,

34:04Speaker 4 many ways, the face of white boy Summer. Not the face we expected.

34:09Rod Palmer What? The the face I think that

34:13Speaker 4 that that we deserve. He's been great. People have been falling in love with him. If this is what I he he looks like kinda how I imagine

34:21Rod Palmer a Viking plaid looked like. Apparently apparently, Joe Joe Rogan was talking about the Fabians

34:27Speaker 4 on on his podcast today. I hope that Rogan has Jack Crews on his podcast. That would be spectacular. I'd rather have Jack on there than Sailor. Man, what do you think, like, the plebs are I don't know. It it was interesting. Sailor sold Bitcoin. His PR team turned that into a flex. The price of Bitcoin went up. There there's a lot of people that are having trouble recalibrating after glazing Saylor so hard for so many years.

34:54Rod Palmer I guess that's the other big news item of the day is that Saylor came out today and denounced Bitcoin 10, said that the hysteria and, like, the panic about spam on Bitcoin

35:10Rod Palmer was, you know, basically all a sigh up and that, the, you know, the fee market, the free market solves problems like this. That happened this, you know, this morning and the Plebs had been chipping out all day about it. There's a lot of people who already turned on sailor. They they anticipated

35:30Rod Palmer this was probably coming, and they just pretended to be outraged. They they, you know, they they had the their their outlandish reactions despite the fact that there was no surprise, but there was there was a lot of plebs for whatever reason. They really admired Taylor, and they were big fans even if they maybe talk shit about him online. This was a tough day for them.

35:53Speaker 4 Hard to accept. I imagine Daniel Prince is crushed right now. I believe he took his whole family to to Sailor's Mansion at one point. They had family dinner together.

36:04Rod Palmer There's a lot of people. That's a big that's a big deal, actually. There's a lot of people who, you know, Crowder himself is on the yacht for the hundred k party. What do you think got Crowder an invite? Was it his, Palantir investment? Yeah. I assume so. I assume it was that was, that was probably a back channel indication.

36:23Speaker 4 Yeah. There's one thing that Saylor respects. It's investing in products like, Palantir. He gets it.

36:30Rod Palmer Right. Business intelligence platforms that help you make, you know, strategic decisions in uncertain markets. Those kind of people understand the they understand so that they're on the same social capital,

36:47Speaker 4 audio. Yeah. Well, yeah, we we're posting this episode a little bit late. We've been running around busy with the, you know, the July 4. It was the the two fiftieth birthday. Do you do you think it was the the birthday that America deserved? Are you happy with it? Yeah.

37:05Rod Palmer I am. I I am. I I personally enjoyed it a great deal. It was it's one of the better Fourth of Julys, personally. I think I didn't read as many reports of people blowing up their fingers and their hands, doing fireworks this year, so,

37:23Rod Palmer you know, that's, I guess, plus. The neocons are in charge. The we had peace. There was peace for the fourth of July. It didn't last long. America was still

37:36Rod Palmer bullish about their soccer team this year, for the two fifty. There's some great flyovers. I mean, if it's all things considered,

37:45Speaker 4 wasn't a bad two fifty. Yeah. I thought it was okay. I I didn't it wasn't as spectacular as it I was hoping for, but, I mean, I kinda wish that they they saved UFC two fifty for the fourth. That would have been good. Yeah. Time on the fourth. Yeah. For sure. For sure. Anyways, I I mean, I thought it was good. I had a spectacular one. I watched sports ball. I mean, I that that kinda surprised me. I I spent a lot of time watching sports ball. I mean, it's just like what happens when you

38:14Speaker 4 spend time with your family. Not typically a sports ball enjoyer, but I I enjoyed some sports ball. The soccer fop

38:23Rod Palmer Yeah. The soccer fop is out of control.

38:25Speaker 4 It's it it's really bad. I mean, it's just like you you look at, like, why did world why did America win World War two? Where's floppers? Well, neither neither are the Russians. Soviets came and steamrolled, it's like The US had to go in and bail out The UK and France. Those two countries are a bunch of posty floppers.

38:47Rod Palmer Yeah. It's it's makes it very difficult to to take them to your and soccer players are like plebs on spaces when the putler laughs at the play that, you know, laughs at their been getting their nodes getting bullied. They just overreact.

39:04Rod Palmer Soccer players overreact at to getting touched. The white glaze.

39:09Speaker 4 Will you got anything before, we go into the

39:14Rod Palmer found boost? No. Not that we covered it. I think we covered most of the big news items. I mean, there's been a bunch of things that happened that we've missed, but, honestly, no nothing to surprise anybody. Nothing that really needs to be discussed, other than, you know

39:33Rod Palmer I think by the next episode, we could tell him about the score. There's a prediction market for now about whether or not senator Mitch McConnell is still alive, and nobody's seen him. Even Trump said today, like, he has no idea what what's going on with Mitch McConnell. But our old our old buddy, the Thomas Massey conspiracies coming back into play because

39:58Rod Palmer people are thinking that, McConnell, his team or whatever is not revealing his debt because it there'll be implications

40:11Rod Palmer around. It would be replacing him in the, a, in the senate because Kentucky has a democratic governor. And b, would you know Thomas Massie? Would he be, you know, put this place? I whatever. I don't know. It's conspiracies are boiling up.

40:29Rod Palmer If it's if there's any signal there, I'm sure it'll be

40:35Speaker 4 newsworthy next time they record. Looking forward to coming back to you with another episode, this upcoming week. Working on some stuff in in the background, kinda got sidetracked. I was helping Kralie, produce her new music video that she just put out last week. That was a lot of fun taking the trash out. First boost, Orange Mart, 5,000 sats.

40:56Speaker 4 I'm gonna play an audio clip, but it is in the advertisement for Orange Mart.

41:05Speaker 5 When the radiation rises and your walls are caving in, when you're bleeding on the beach and you cannot find your kin, don't you worry, dear survivor. Keep your head and play it smart. Put your safety in the hands of the friendly. Orange Mart. Orange Mart. Orange Mart. Buy your blood and play your part. Lightning fast and safe from raids. Drop your guns and join the trades.

41:32Speaker 4 Missed you guys. Been a while since we heard from you. Hope the Orange Mart is, you know, going strong. Orange Mart's a good spot to hang out for, like, go a summer.

41:44Rod Palmer I've also I've also noticed, quite a few or, you know, not quite a few, but at least, like, three or four different prediction markets on predicts, about different outcomes and scrap

42:02Rod Palmer scrap towns and different things that are gonna happen in the next, Rust Server Wipe in Orange Mart. And who's gonna, you know, which top players are gonna basically be at the top of the scoreboard. So if if you are in Orange Mart, you hang out at Orange Mart, you play on the Rust servers, and you also like Predation Markets. Go check out Predicts and look at the, check out the

42:27Rod Palmer some of the markets they got there for Orange Mart that look it looks like you're having fun. Glad to see those guys are back. The, next one is Sasha. Sasha Hodder 5,000 sats. Great show. Thanks. Thank you, Sasha. It's always good. Sasha's Sasha's listens to every based every episode. She's great to love having her as a as a listener. Yeah. Sasha just did the,

42:50Speaker 4 Sunset Circuit, event. Sounded like it went well. Played an advertisement for it on the last show.

42:60Speaker 4 A lot of fun. But, I I did wanna point out or just say something, you know, when I it got me thinking about Orange Martin. I was thinking about this during the episode and, just didn't say anything about it, because we got under a different topic. But, you know, these node runners, these boomer node runners, Gen X node runners, they're not familiar with how video games have worked. Like, every every few years, you know, people have to either update their consoles or get a new GPU,

43:32Speaker 4 you know, and and tinker with their hardware and upgrade it. Right? To play the latest video game. You know, people do this with their cell phones. People do this with every little bit of technology. And they went into this with the expectation that they were gonna you know, their their little

43:52Speaker 4 myNode Raspberry Pi with the RGBs on it that they bought in 2021 was gonna be able to run the Bitcoin network for the entirety of, the rest of their lives, which is just not, you know, the way that yeah. I mean, you see the these boomers that

44:10Speaker 4 are operating on their old phone that's, like, five years old, and they're, like, bitching about how, like, the battery doesn't work and, like, you know, they they can't figure out how to get their apps to work. They lost their, like, iCloud password, you know, whatever. It's just it it's a a lot of these individuals that have very strong opinions about Bitcoin that, you know, are tweeting from their retirement homes would benefit from, like, actually understanding

44:38Speaker 4 a little bit how technology works. And, you know, you're not gonna be able to play, GTA six with your Xbox three sixty, if you know what I mean. Good luck. I don't know if the the the the proper thing to do is to bitch about how GTA six should be backwards compatible for your Xbox three sixty

45:01Speaker 4 in 2026. Why why was the Xbox three sixty,

45:04Rod Palmer released? Was that, like, '20 I was in, like, 2007.

45:08Speaker 4 Yeah. Or maybe Xbox one or whatever. Yeah. Next boot is from Waha CliffShark 2222 SaaS. It's solid. They just did the, Revolution Rocks. I've had a Belgrade. Looked like Fawn.

45:24Speaker 4 Scardust, I think it's been announced. They're they're coming to The US, so that's gonna be pretty cool. So I'll be hanging out with, Lav and, Noah, coming this fall. There's gonna be an event in, Chicago. Did you see this, the the value for value event in Chicago in September?

45:45Speaker 4 That did not. Yeah. It looks pretty cool. Skirdos is gonna be playing there, and, they're doing a whole value for value event. I think Avi is gonna be involved with it. Mike's gonna be involved with it from Tunster. Looks like it's gonna be a fun high signal event for sure. Keep keep me posted on the days. I don't remember off the top of my head, but look at it's like value for value Chicago or something like that if you wanna look it up. Yeah. Next one is from Stack Jarrow to

46:14Rod Palmer 2100 Sats. I like the signal of the end of the bear market being sailors selling large chunk coins, and I'm trying to get in the mindset of this crab walking downhill market from October last year taking much longer than anticipated. Much like fundamentals saying that the Fiat regime or that's the place here. Is gonna take a lot longer than we expect to end the Fed,

46:41Speaker 4 just some club trinkets, like, pick everything else. Yeah. Fundamentals was, like, predicting that Bitcoin is gonna go down to, like, 45,000. He was super bearish on that episode that we were on. He thinks we're gonna crab walk until fall. It seems to be, a lot of the speculation.

47:00Rod Palmer I don't know. I don't, I really don't have any price predictions. I'm

47:07Speaker 4 too focused on the k fade. I'm enjoying wake away summer, personally.

47:11Rod Palmer Got you.

47:13Speaker 4 How about 2,000 sassy? Silly plaids, people calling themselves a plaid that is actually self loathing, which I guess in today's world is a cool thing to do. Why? Because they truly hate themselves. Definition of the word, an informal and often derogatory slang term for an ordinary, uncultured,

47:32Speaker 4 or lower class person. In short, they're both gay as fuck and dumb as fuck. Brian is decorated especially with the pinky rings. Yeah. Thank you for, reaffirming the definition of plab. I think think that just needs to continue to be

47:50Speaker 4 shared. It's the the formal definition is a very accurate definition for the Bitcoin plabs.

48:01Rod Palmer Couldn't agree more, Bubba. Couldn't agree more. 1,420 salves from local Bitcoiners heard Brian Archfield is starting a big devs meet up. Even if that doesn't make him a journalist, that's pretty badass. Bit devs are perfect for washing a month's worth of bleb slop

48:20Rod Palmer off of the fire hose of tactical information. Yes. It is trying out the slop with sickle. Looking forward to looking forward to to,

48:31Speaker 4 fundamentals, big devs. That'll be interesting. Platives don't like to go to big devs, and part of the reason why is because there's not really room for them to plug slot. They they wanna sit there. They wanna run their mouths. They wanna regurgitate ideas that they heard, other people say. And,

48:49Speaker 4 you know, when people start talking about, like, technical details of how Bitcoin works, their their head starts to spin. They get, you know, real confused, and they they feel out of their element. And so they they wanna flock to

49:02Rod Palmer places that they feel, you know, safe and comfortable, and it's just it's challenging spot for them. And nobody nobody wants to glaze them for being a node runner at BitDevs. And if they if somebody actually wants to talk about their nodes at the devs, they typically wanna talk about type of things that a quote unquote node runner has no idea about. If it's thought, you know,

49:27Speaker 4 push a couple of buttons on your start nine, they don't really know how it works. Pushing a couple buttons on the start nine might be a little bit too complicated for them even. Absolutely. James Satoshi, five hundred twenty one SaaS. Just thank you for your time.

49:41Rod Palmer Thank you. And a thousand SaaS we missed, Sean there. Brian Hirschfeld, next book needs to cover mythos, class, paper Bitcoin. So he's talking about the, mythos by Claude, the the the national security threat, the one that's, can basically compromise any machine. Mythos, so so basically the, artificial general intelligence class of paper Bitcoin.

50:06Rod Palmer I don't know if the market's ready for that, Sean. But I am. Me

50:10Speaker 4 too. Wish that, Fundamentals would do an audiobook for his, his book. I've been bugging him ever since he launched it. He hasn't done it yet. Mister x 500 sat says, like doctor Jack Cruz, while I wear my certified red shades, fundamentals is a legit credential truth teller as I verified

50:31Speaker 4 his intellect along with the mindfulness as he autographed my Bitcoin for institutions book I acquired at the twenty twenty five Lake Satoshi Bitcoin retreat. That's cool, mister Rex.

50:45Rod Palmer Kyle Huber, 500 stats. Good content for pioneers.

50:50Speaker 4 Thank you, Kyle. Kyle's been boosting our bangers recently.

50:54Rod Palmer Just gonna say, Kyle's back to boosting bangers on the timeline.

50:59Speaker 4 Much respect. Rev Hoddle, 321 stat says, if Brian Hersheld is a credentialed journalist, Beagle News should hire him. Hope everyone appreciate this episode as much as I do. Well, we hired him for an episode. He's busy doing his math podcast and the fish podcast. He Jason and him just put out a episode today, actually, that I listened to. They're talking about fish in 1994, or fundamentals was. Jason wasn't into fish back then. Fundamentals

51:27Rod Palmer was just recalling his, fish war stories. Terrific disaster from Nostra dang. Does it say Uranus?

51:35Speaker 4 Says us us us.

51:37Rod Palmer Us us us. Put one word. Thank you not yeah. Thank you, Nostra Dame.

51:42Speaker 4 You sus us. Pie has a 121 sass. It says yo yo yo, mushroom emoji, strong-arm, squirt gun. Welcome back, Pies. Hope you've been doing well. Missed seeing your boost.

51:56Rod Palmer It's good to I'm I owe you know, if if it's our fundamentals being on the episode to get Pies back, Glad I'm glad I'm glad for that alone. Looks like he double boosted. That's that's the signature pies right there. Double boosting. Silas Thornbrook at 121

Folks, thank you for tuning in to this episode of Beacon Weekly, and we'll catch you again here in a few days.

53:14Speaker 3 Yeah. But you ever laughed so hard? Hard. You forget what was funny? Yeah. Welcome to the carnival.

53:28Speaker 3 I woke up with the carnival still ringing in my head. Little painted voices gathered around my bed. One says keep on laughing. One says pick a side. One says don't look back. One just smiles too wide. I can see in patterns where there ain't no lines.

54:17Speaker 3 Every member's crooked, every smile bends, every answer somehow breaks before it ends. Everybody whispers like the

55:14Speaker 3 Is this is it real? Is it theater? Is it both? Does it matter? Did I lose my mind? Or did everybody else just get better

55:26Speaker 3 at pretending? No more heroes, no more saints. Everybody's hiding behind fresh new pain. Everybody dancing, everybody grins. Everybody's got la la la. Hey, Fabian. Hey, Fabian.

55:40Speaker 4 And my brain again. Paint on

55:59Speaker 3 K Fabian. Still inside my head, maybe tomorrow I wake up instead. But if this whole world's just one big pretend, I'll see the cave baby ends again.
