Transcript: Rising Above Slop | Bugle Weekly Episode 84
0:01Richard Greaser Bro, I just made the easiest money of my life. Easy money? Tell me more, fam. I just bet 1,000,000 satoshis that shinobi will call baby Jesus retarded by Christmas.
0:15Rod Palmer Shinobi will call baby Jesus retarded. By Christmas, that's like taking custodial lightning wallet sats from a club. Where can I take this bet?
0:24Richard Greaser You can bet on Predyx. Just go to beta.predyx.com. That's Predyx spelled p r e d y x. Predyx is non k y c, and you can get started betting within seconds. I bet David Bailey will promote pump and dump ordinal scams. Hey, Terrence. You can bet on that too. Okay. But is this gambling? It's only gambling if you don't listen to forty hours of Bitcoin podcasts per week. David Bailey and Shinobi are finally going down.
1:02Unknown Are you sick of smelling like Plebslot from dealing with retarded plebs online all day? Are you sick of using harsh body soaps that leave you feeling dry, itchy, and smelling like industrial chemicals? Well, now you don't have to. Introducing SoapMiner. SoapMiner is handmade tallow soap like your great grandmother used to make. It's gentle, natural, moisturizing, and free from anything toxic. These are humble soaps. SoapMiner believes soap shouldn't be toxic because Bitcoin maximalists are toxic enough already,
1:32Unknown and Soap miner is the only soap that washes off the pep slop. You can buy Soap miner tallow soaps with Bitcoin at soapminer.com.
1:46Richard Greaser From what's, you know, we just, we just have reflections from the frontier but we're back today back to the normal schedule and I don't know it's it's if you've been following New York City
2:01Richard Greaser the communist just took over New York City Trump is he's offering $2,000 stimulus checks and it's I it's we didn't think we were gonna be getting stimulus checks this time last year so I think it's important to see where are we going forward
2:20Richard Greaser we thought we were gonna have this bull market the biggest one ever we thought we were gonna have hyperbitcoinization instead we got fifty year
2:33Richard Greaser mortgages in plug slot the the announcement of fifty year mortgages is like the admission and like the commitment of the establishment to provide exit liquidity
2:47Richard Greaser for baby boomers so they can continue to gamble their social security checks away to slot machines and I I don't I can't say any of us are surprised by this move but the gall of them in the fourth turning
3:04Richard Greaser to to prioritize after COVID after shutting the whole thing down to to protect boomers during COVID we thought we weren't gonna have to deal with this again and now the fifty year mortgage they're they're
3:18Richard Greaser doubling down on giving the boomers extra liquidity and it's you and I who are the ex of liquidity it's it's the generations the younger generations the people who will have to be the pioneers who will take over when all this dust settles but I mean
3:35Richard Greaser fifty year mortgages in Plebslop, is that is that a future to you, Richard?
3:42Rod Palmer Well, I think we have a really cool opportunity right now to break the cycle of bullshit. And, you know, just because other people are plub slopping doesn't mean that, we have to be victims of it. And,
3:59Rod Palmer that's that's part of the attitude of the pioneers is not having this victim mentality. Like people like to make fun of libtards about being victims or or whatever, you know, whining and bitching, but, you know, then they go on and do the same thing. So I think I see it as a great future because we have an opportunity
4:21Rod Palmer to break the cycle, to be different, to to no longer support the Plebslop Kantian effect, to bring some real signal to the world, to use our brains. So I absolutely see an incredibly bright future ahead despite of these developments. So I'm feeling good. I'm feeling good today. I'm feeling optimistic. I'm feeling hopeful in this for turning in this shit show that, is going on. And, you know, one of the reasons
4:54Rod Palmer the shit show is so great is we have so many interesting things to podcast about, you know. And as a podcaster, you want interesting things to to podcast about. You know, this is you know, one of the benefits of having retards in society is you get to provide social commentary for the people that aren't retarded. It's an awesome opportunity. We're gonna we're our jobs are safe as AI has taken over everything. The problem with AI is it's got way too many,
5:25Rod Palmer safety guards to do any sort of effective it AI was built to spew Plebslop, to get people to to have Plebslop brains, and our jobs are secure, Rod. So I'm feeling good here.
5:45Richard Greaser Well, you talk about breaking the cycle and in a lot of ways we like to, we like to distance ourselves from the boomers. We like to distance ourselves from their values distance ourselves from their judgments distance ourselves from the you know just they're the Woodstock generation the filthy hippies
6:07Richard Greaser who just were in around with ponytails and dirty smelly just taking drugs avoidant they didn't go they didn't pay their taxes they didn't go, they didn't go fight in the the pan of filmic classes wars overseas against communism
6:25Richard Greaser but they they want to tell us that that that's our duty they want to chastise us for our lack of commitment to you know to the to the country whatever and but in a lot of ways we do we are the products of these of this generation
6:43Richard Greaser that raised us right I mean we mock them for gambling their social security checks at the slot machines in Vegas but young people are also gambling with their future they are addicted to
6:59Richard Greaser sports betting apps they're addicted to, you know, trying to get pump and dump meme coins on pump. Fund trying to 10x and just vault themselves into you know comfort and retirement with broccoli haircuts they
7:18Richard Greaser are polymarker and polymarker is becoming one of the biggest you know the it's going to do they're talking about putting stocks bonds crypto bitcoin and prediction markets all in the same app and in doing it all on the on blockchains right
7:38Richard Greaser and it's taken over so like we are gambling with our feature but if you're not betting on Bitcoin do you think there's even a feature at all right like that's what you if you're gonna if you're gonna bet bet on Bitcoin, and how do we keep people focused on that? Yeah.
7:57Rod Palmer It's it's interesting because, like, the the boomers, so I think looking at the boomers for some important context for, grumpy millennials, grumpy gen z ers, grumpy gen x ers, the people that are looking at the boomers, they say, oh, you're such a worthless generation that fed your children to Moloch. And,
8:15Rod Palmer you know, whatever. As we grow older, guess what, folks? Our generations are likely gonna be very similar to the boomers in a sense of there are, you know,
8:27Rod Palmer handful of cigarette smokers and and cognizant, aware individuals. Much of the rest of the generation are gonna look up to Mike Brock like he's a sophisticated philosopher. Like, that's just the reality you're you're living in. And, you know, when you're old enough to get your Social Security checks, which won't happen because it won't be there, but when you hit that age, your generation is going to be ridiculed
8:54Rod Palmer by the younger generations in the same exact way. Now the you know, the the boomers lacked a lot of creativity when it came to gambling markets, they, they play the slot machines. One of the things that you have the lowest odds of winning, you just sit there and pull over the boomers. They like bingo. Bingos
9:15Rod Palmer their idea of gambling,
9:18Richard Greaser slot machines and bingo folks. Well, they, Vegas is boomer slop, right? Like it is just mindless. It's it, she gets the endorphins go and it gets them excited. The lights blink and they, it makes noises and they could sit there and smoke cigarettes and look at the flashing lights, the pretty lights, and it's just it just feels good. It's a it's a they don't have to think they don't have to think for themselves. They don't have to they don't have to have any accountability. They just get to enjoy, you know, the moment. It's it's it's just it's just pure sloppy fun.
9:50Richard Greaser But they are boomers do love staring at their phones and playing games on their phones. Some of them are migrating to to digital gaming as well.
10:00Rod Palmer That's true. Yeah. Candy Crush. Boomers love Candy Crush. They're, spending 100 their Social Security checks on on Candy Crush or whatever the game is. But yeah. I mean, the the boomers operated in this very limited sandbox. They had, like, four TV shows. They just they didn't really have the same variety that is available today.
10:26Richard Greaser No entropy.
10:27Rod Palmer No. They lacked entropy, which is why there was a lack of creativity when it came to gambling markets today. There's kind of a renaissance of creativity. You got Polymarket, you got, predicts, you have I did I did a few bets on how they got me.
10:44Richard Greaser Tausi. Then your stock exchange, Nasdaq, Meta Planet, you know, commodities markets, gold, silver. I mean, there's so many different ways you can gamble.
10:60Rod Palmer Racist, a lot of meme coins. Treasury
11:03Richard Greaser now.
11:05Unknown Do you do you do that? Mining.
11:07Richard Greaser Yeah. Bit axes. There's so many ways. But lottery.
11:14Rod Palmer Would you would you put the bit ax in the in the same category as a racist saloon and meme coin as far as gambling?
11:21Richard Greaser I could see I can see the argument. Right? Like, a bid ax is I mean, it's mostly kinda like middle aged white, bald,
11:37Richard Greaser chubby men who have have bid access. Like, you don't see a lot of bid access. You don't see a lot of Latinos with bid access, Chinese people, Indians. There's not a lot of Jeep bid access owners. It's just for it's kinda racist. Not
11:56Richard Greaser maliciously, just, you know, institute it's like an institutional racism.
12:00Rod Palmer Yeah. Well, you know, the the Binax is, they they argue that it's like a educational project. People, you know, these middle aged white men can learn about mining Bitcoin. And so therefore, it's a productive activity, but you could argue in the same way that,
12:22Rod Palmer you when you purchase a Solana meme coin, that is also an educational activity because you're learning about the centralized nature of
12:32Rod Palmer Solana, about bad UX and and complicated, exchanges, about, you know, how quickly you can lose your money or or how to rug pull a bunch of players. Like, it it's it's an educational process too.
12:51Rod Palmer So I I would argue they're very similar. It's just that it's kinda different demographics choose which way they wanna gamble.
13:01Richard Greaser That's true. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good point. And some not everybody likes to gamble, but what do you do? What do you do if you like what's your how do you afford
13:15Richard Greaser your taxes? And how do you afford to retire, if you if you're not a gambler? It's I mean, other it's a is it really some people consider Bitcoin a gamble.
13:28Rod Palmer How do you convince them and then it's not? Well, I mean, I would argue I would argue it's a gamble for sure. I mean, I guess you every decision you make in life and in some degrees is a gamble. You get married to somebody. For sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you're when you get married to somebody, you're speculating that there's gonna be some sort of ROI. When you take a job, there's gamble there, gambling on future income,
13:53Rod Palmer opportunity that it fits well with, you know, the things that you wanna be doing. I guess everything's a gamble. There's just some good gambles and bad gambles.
14:07Richard Greaser It's a good point. And if you're gonna bet, you you should bet on yourself and bet on Bitcoin. Those two at least, you you can you can spray out from there. You can go to paper Bitcoin. You can go to eTash.
14:25Richard Greaser You can go to Tesla stocks, you can go to MSTR. You can do the gold, but it's the further you get away from your node, the less likely you are to
14:40Richard Greaser be able to kind of parse real from fiction, plebslop from signal, but at least in your note is your note's kinda like your your center. And you wanna stay you wanna stay with what you know and how you can
14:56Rod Palmer determine what's real. As far as determining what's real, I don't think Twitter's a great place to do it. So I, it's kinda funny. I have a back to back tweets. One from account called Jews fight back, making fun of Tucker Carlson for being dumb. Folks, Tucker Carlson's being dumb. And if you have or is dumb. If you haven't figured this out yet, you got some more podcasts listening to do, some more more thinking, some more cigarettes to smoke, but Tucker Carlson's retarded. The next meme is a, Hitler meme.
15:31Rod Palmer So I got Jews. I got the Twitter algo is feeding me Zionist propaganda and Nazi propaganda back to back. It's pretty interesting.
15:44Richard Greaser It's it's it's it's doing this to a lot of people and is a little different. It's a little it's not always the same flavor you are. It's like sometimes people are getting, like the crusade memes where it's like, you know, the the there's some movie where the guy has a metal face, and he's wearing, like, a big, you know, clean crusade robe or whatever. And it's everybody's, like, holding spears and they're they're going to church as excitedly as possible. They're going to conquer the Middle East. And people get a lot of those memes versus, like, you know,
16:19Richard Greaser multiculturalism memes or they get Barbie and Ken, and it's like, you know, being cool and racist and it makes it look fun. And or they get naked fun. It it's making people choose. It's making people bet. It's making people, like, think about poly markets. Like, am I gonna bet on the Zionists
16:38Richard Greaser or the Nazis? Am I gonna bet on the Nazis or the communists, the communists or the fascists, the Jews or the, you know, Christians, whatever it is. It's like making people bet on this, make people choose. And so I think that's interesting as well because it's not just you. Everybody's getting their own flavor of this, like,
16:60Richard Greaser t's extreme sides of the spectrum.
17:04Rod Palmer Yeah. I mean, the the the Zionist versus Nazi propaganda replaced the, the two genders versus multi genders, the the pronoun people. That there there's always some divide and conquer campaign that needs to get people divided on something.
17:23Richard Greaser Right now. Yeah. Exactly. Right now, the algorithm is is making you realize it's it's reinforcing the fact that the truth is binary. It's not non binary. Just in time for quantum computers.
17:39Rod Palmer Yeah. I think we the realization I hope that people come to is you need both the Nazis and the, the Zionists, like but you just need to figure out a way for them not to tear each other apart and create all this collateral damage in the rest of society. Like, have them you know, the Zionists can hang out in Israel and in the media, and the the Nazis can hang out in their the rural Idaho Christian nationalist churches, and, you know, they just gotta get That's yeah.
18:11Richard Greaser Well, that's what Tucker Carlson is doing. That's what Nick Fuentes is doing. That is what Hassan Piker is doing. That is what, you know, a lot of podcasters are doing. If they are distracting them with plexilof,
18:25Richard Greaser that is kind of the goal. Right? Like, they if they distract them with plexilop, they pacify them with with shiny plexilop, then they won't go out and and try to genocide each other. Yeah. It's
18:37Rod Palmer it's interesting because, like, there there's this whole level of they they call it the independent media. One of the reasons why I never really use that term is because I just think it's been plup slopped to death. And most of people call it, you know, okay. You don't take donors from donations from Pfizer or whatever you call yourself independent media, but you're still getting paid by the CIA and interacting with them? Like, come on, folks. So I I like to differentiate myself and the bugle call us,
19:07Rod Palmer the non CIA media. But, yeah, they they have, like, a lesser degree of plev slop where it's just not as apparent as, like, kind of the the corporate, you know, TV news, like CNN or Fox or, you know, whatever it is. But it's still It's edgier. Like yeah. It's it's edgier or plub slop. Like, Candace Owens,
19:32Rod Palmer plub slop. Nick Fuentes he's entertaining Plub Slop. I'll I'll say Nick Flint says this is, you know, one of the most entertaining, Plub Sloppers out there right now.
19:42Richard Greaser That's why they're saying we're flying this torch. Yeah. This Plub Slop that you kind of turn the volume up because you want other people to know that you're listening to it and this plebslop that you turn the volume down when you're walking through the gym with your headphones you don't want people to hear the plebslop you're listening to and the CIA's just got like the the quieter plug slot the edgier the you know and yeah I mean I could maybe that might make sense to the to the forty hour per weekers out there
20:13Rod Palmer I wanna say I'm really sad that Dick Cheney died. I take. Well, you know, we're we're just going through this, we're gonna be going through this time. You know, these boomer's getting old. They're dying. We're gonna watch I guess he's a little bit older than Boomer, but, we'll just
20:34Rod Palmer Boomer just refers to old people that don't know how to use their iPhones at this point. But, we're watching all these politicians die without having received any accountability. And I I think when they when they hit the death point where they die in their eighties, they die of old age of natural causes. It's kinda like they won.
21:02Richard Greaser They won. You know, it's kind of it's it's gotta be like The Hague. They probably think about like Dick Cheney the way that like you know imagine like a star
21:16Richard Greaser sports ball player coming out of college gets drafted number one then he like tears his ACL or like pillows his Achilles tendon is never able to perform people are like man imagine if he would have been good you could have won the Super Bowl the sportsball championship like The Hague is probably like damn imagine if we would have got our fingers we could have got a hold of Cheney that would have been an epic fucking trial We would've had Wikipedia for ages.
21:43Rod Palmer Yeah. I'd say it's a sad day for America that that man it's a sad day for the world, you know, having a man like that die without having received any accountability with the blood on his hands. It's, it's really the power of the the pepslop industrial complex, you know, to be able to
22:06Rod Palmer maintain a reputation like that guy, Draft Dodge and Dick, you know, guy that, dodged the draft by pretending to go to college
22:19Rod Palmer and then proceeded to send tons of people off to go die you know for stupid reasons kill people for no reason yeah I would say it's a sad day It's a very sad day for America, for the world that he died in the way that he did. And, I'm not really sure, you know, what
22:41Rod Palmer the best, like, I think it's kind of silly to celebrate people's deaths like you know some people are like dancing on his grave and, I'm sure he's kind of cackling about that from wherever he is in the afterlife. Is like, hi, stupid libtards. I won. I beat you.
23:05Richard Greaser But Well, I yeah. But he died a libtard. I mean, he he formally endorsed, you know, Harris, in the right at the end of any election a year ago so the very people who
23:22Richard Greaser were his sworn enemies at the time he became one of them like maybe that is maybe that's that's that's comeuppance that's punishment you know I don't know if in hindsight right would it be better that he faced you know a trial
23:41Richard Greaser where signing like is it is it justice to have some the federal or European judge determine your fate and say that, you were a war criminal like if they did it to somebody who you didn't disdain who you didn't think deserved people would say like that's not a legitimate court anyway like so who cares that's not justice whatever their their decision is but
24:03Richard Greaser to be forever your legacy that you ultimately had to seek refuge and your family did
24:13Richard Greaser and that you became the very thing you swore to defeat your whole life if that's your legacy that's that's much better than the the the justice of the European
24:27Richard Greaser Central Orts
24:30Rod Palmer yeah I think the politicians like Dick Cheney the the best way to do it is just fly him over to Afghanistan and hand him over to the Taliban and just leave him there.
24:40Richard Greaser Take a TikTok with him. The Taliban doing TikToks riding fucking mine scooters down the Hindu coast with Cheney. It'll be like, You know, one of our Humvees.
24:53Rod Palmer Look at Duffy him. But, you know, the the you know, it's funny to refer to Donald Trump as a, conservative at this point. And I think this is kind of the the silliness of the American political discourse of people just you know, the plugs that are sucked into the kayfabe, they're so aligned with the team and they have no sense of values or intellectual honesty or consistency of like, okay. Let's talk about the conservative nature of Donald Trump. He is
25:24Rod Palmer buying stakes in US companies. He is issuing stimulus checks. He is fucking with all these controls on the economy. I'm pretty sure he's implementing some price controls.
25:40Rod Palmer What's conservative? Fannie and
25:43Richard Greaser Freddie announced on Friday that they were looking to take stakes in tech companies. So they already destroyed the mortgage you know we got we already talked about the fifty year mortgages that are coming down the line thanks,
25:58Richard Greaser not completely but in in large part to the actions of Fannie and Freddie they're now going to be buying stakes in chat CPT. Google, you know. Something to think about. Donald
26:15Richard Greaser Trump the Trump administration has already bought stake in IBM what was the other one? There was another one Intel. They're gonna do Intel. Or excuse me, Intel. And I think one or two others
26:29Richard Greaser they they're they're starting a strategic uranium reserve for nuclear power which is probably an AI play they're being they're buying pesos
26:41Richard Greaser from Argentina
26:43Rod Palmer I think of any company the US government should take stock in, it would be, Buc ee's. I think Buc ee's is a good American company.
26:55Richard Greaser Nakamoto.
26:57Rod Palmer I don't know about Nakamoto.
27:01Richard Greaser But, no, yeah, I mean, I it's it's interesting that you framed it the way you did I I think I've heard, you know, for a long time people have made this, you know, argument that there's nothing conservative
27:17Richard Greaser about this politics I mean the tariffs, the trade, this position on like the World Trade Organization and the the big
27:27Richard Greaser you know those big trans the international trade deals you know I'm talking after the other one. Well those are conservative terrorists you already mentioned Dwight it's it's populist it's it's populism it's plexuslat populism and that is
27:45Richard Greaser what this is like the same with Montani in York City it's people are arguing in semantic arguments about communist, socialist
27:57Richard Greaser just leftist, whatever. That it's just populism at the end of the day. It's just the the left flavor of populism versus the
28:06Rod Palmer not conservative but, nationalist. Yeah. I just hope to see people putting less energy into, the Kayfabe at the conferences next year. You're realizing you know, there there's been this huge emphasis on, Bitcoin and politics, and there'll probably be a continued emphasis on that in the PodConf industrial Complex. But, every time they try and do this, they just get fucked.
28:34Rod Palmer They burn their money. It goes nowhere. Productive. Waste a lot of people's time listening to, you know, people talk about things that are super inconsequential. Like, who cares about RFK Jr's thoughts on Bitcoin?
28:56Rod Palmer He's got brain worms. I mean, the guy the guy's a limited hangout health government guy going and presenting these policies that, you know, really don't matter. Exposing Tylenol? So yeah. Saying that Tylenol. I mean, I would be more excited if he if he went up on
29:19Rod Palmer stage with, Trump and start talking about how Bitcoin podcasts give you autism, instead of Tylenol. It'd be more accurate.
29:29Richard Greaser You know, credit where credit's due. One one guy who has take hasn't taken their advice. He set the standard really. It is, Justin Bachelor. He's never ever been, fooled by the cafe but the the politics intertwined with the Margies I mean he's,
29:49Richard Greaser Sinti Llamas'
29:51Rod Palmer enemy number one Has he defined what money is yet? Has he been able to do that? Have you seen that?
29:58Richard Greaser No no he has not he has been posting us this the GQ interview meme with Sydney Sweeney and that millennial making that Chungus face, he's published about 740 of those since Friday afternoon That still hasn't a define money or or be made a funny meme, but he's still posting. I hope he's doing well.
30:22Richard Greaser You too.
30:24Rod Palmer I just can't help but root for these guys. It's like it's kind of embarrassing.
30:30Richard Greaser They, Well, I've been I've been in in the in the group chat, the four group chat all weekend. I've been posting a lot in there. I've been interacting with the guys, sharing my opinions, it's been pretty productive. I think I think a lot of guys have unblocked. Giacomo Zuko unblocked me today,
30:51Richard Greaser on Twitter, and I invited him on the podcast, pulling the the beloved runner-up of the inaugural Maxi Madness
31:02Richard Greaser Tournament Championship two thousand twenty four. He was always welcome on the pugil. Ham and Yellow jumped in on it. So it it's it's been a productive never fade group chats, man. I've, I'm building bridges back up with the with the with the knots, guys.
31:20Rod Palmer I would love to interview Giacomo. I think that'd be a good one. You know, I've tried to build bridges. I don't know what what the disconnect is for me because they they seem like they're so much more receptive to you than they are to me. I I joined the group and I got booted instantaneously.
31:42Rod Palmer And I I have not been able to figure out because I feel like you have been pulling the knobs of the Nazis a little bit harder than I have over the last little bit.
31:55Richard Greaser Oh, I think they were all expecting me to, choice their knobs in the group chat. But, I've actually been, like, I started by extending in all of Brienne, inviting them to come chat chat with us on the show. Promised to, give them a fair a fair conversation, and and Adam back immediately
32:17Richard Greaser responded and and recommended we, you know, Luke to come chat with us. I don't think Luke reacted to it, but I'm sure he saw it. Need help he's thinking about it. Being interested to do a conversation with Luke.
32:29Rod Palmer I imagine it'd probably be pretty painful
32:31Richard Greaser Yo, I I don't know I think, Kathy Gafford all this sloppy conflict I've I've I've grown to appreciate in his,
32:45Richard Greaser not not so much what he's done but just the the precision and the the deliberate thought in into how he does it And I think I've started to understand that more.
33:03Rod Palmer Yeah. I just think he's a he's a tough guy to interview, like, the the viral meme of that, Asian lady asking him what he thinks, what he likes about Bitcoin, and what it finds interesting, and he responds like as if that's some sort of crazy question with a non answer. It's like you you get a lot of those. It's a tough interview. Like, typically, when you see Luke on interviews, he typically has one of his, less autistic handlers with him, like mechanic
33:32Rod Palmer something. So Luke goes and says something retarded, and then, it's just hard because, like, devs are not podcasters for the most part. It's just out of their wheelhouse of, like, they're not meant to have actual conversations with human beings. You know, computer code is essentially translate it's a translation between humans in zeros and ones, computer language.
33:57Rod Palmer And, like, devs are like computer code where it's like a whole different language that you have to learn how to understand. And they have a whole profession for dealing with these people and being their translators to humans, and they're called project managers. They're Autist wranglers.
34:16Rod Palmer And, you know, there there's as as podcasting continues to become more prolific, like, there needs to be this this class of, translators, like mechanic. Like, mechanic is, you know, for for those that are losing their jobs, if you can learn how to, speak and understand extreme autism
34:39Rod Palmer like, this is kind of what Shinobi's job is at Bitcoin Magazine, is he's an autism translator. Like, he's trying to communicate computer he's translating Dev Slop into Plebslop.
34:54Richard Greaser Exactly. I was at I was this is something I wanted to talk about earlier in in the show. It made me think of it. It's like, we there needs to be we need to scale this translation, alright? Like, AI is able to translate Mandarin Chinese to English, it's able to translate
35:17Richard Greaser you name it to whatever you name it Japanese to Spanish etcetera but and that's important but you need to be able to once you have the formal translation somebody still needs to translate it to plexlov.
35:35Richard Greaser Otherwise it's the real message kind of gets lost in translation. It gets lost in the in the bytes and conversions. The entropy is it's hard to decompress it on the other side without losing
35:51Richard Greaser being able to translate it to plexlop is controlling for the entropy in communication absolutely that you just need somebody who's has more patience than Shinobi. You can't do it. Shinobi's trying to do it all. He's trying to be every chord dev's translator. It's right. Mechanical only has to translate for one person.
36:10Richard Greaser Shinobi has to translate for a diverse group of men and women and in betweens from all over the world. And it's it's gotta be stressful.
36:23Richard Greaser He's he's high c he's very high strong.
36:26Rod Palmer Yep. You know, being a translator is one of the most powerful jobs in the world. And you've seen this historically, like, you know, you would have these, these
36:39Richard Greaser A King James' translator. Right?
36:42Rod Palmer Well, these kings would meet with each other. They knew nothing about their culture. They didn't have the Internet. And so these translators would be the bridge in the conversation between kings. And they could mistranslate something or skew the translation in a way and had in many ways, they they were speaking for the kings because there was nobody really to check them in some circumstances. And we're seeing the same thing
37:07Rod Palmer today where these Dev Slop translators like mechanic, like mechanic. So what what the battles happening right now? Shinobi's got one interpretation of a translation of the devs. Mechanic has a completely different translation
37:24Rod Palmer of the devs, and the plugs are so they have a choice of which translation they choose. And they are not many of them don't care whether it's accurate or not. They they just look at it and and say this one aligns more with my feelings and opinions on things.
37:44Rod Palmer But we're we're seeing the the incredible power that these, DevSlop translators have on the world and the broader ecosystem. It's pretty fun. In a way It's pretty astounding.
37:57Richard Greaser And it takes their toll. It takes its toll. I mean look at mechanic, look at shinobi lately they look tired they look brow beaten because when people are people are taking all of their
38:12Richard Greaser complaints all their frustrations and they're projecting it onto Shinobi and Mechanic they are if they're mad at Gloria they're yelling at Shinobi because Gloria is not out there communicating with people. So Shinobi's taking all the heat for
38:29Richard Greaser all these guys and mechanics taking all the heat for Luke. And it's it's gotta be it's gotta be tough.
38:37Rod Palmer Yeah. They're they're both facing attacks from large bot farms around the world, pseudo spoofing in the comments.
38:47Richard Greaser Yeah, think of the meme of the, like, the soldier and he's like sticking his arms up and there's just a bunch of missiles and bullets of twepslaugh just hitting him in the back. And they're but they're shielding they're shielding the devs, Luke, and the Kordevs from from all that, you know, artillery fire. Yeah. The like eight ten warthogs, they just come home and just absolutely riddled with bullets. And they gotta get they keep they gotta take time to recharge and repair and just go back out and and the the
39:20Richard Greaser the clubs are just on the ground with the anti anti datteries and just pop pop pop pop pop pop and just glass them with club slot.
39:30Rod Palmer Yeah. So the government shut down. People are getting grumpy about their flights getting canceled. I wonder if TSA is grumpy or because they're not getting any paychecks or whatever.
39:44Richard Greaser Well, luckily they've been weren't spilled last year at the conference and, you know, they blocked Bitcoin so, like, they're they're able to wither the shutdown. I've been enjoying the shutdown. I hope it stays shutdown for forever.
40:00Rod Palmer It's interesting how active the government has been even though it's shutdown. It's been very active.
40:07Richard Greaser There are people who are working with FAA to get the air traffic controllers. The you know, keep us nobody's out. I I don't know if somebody's gotta be out to cleaning up the trails in Yosemite Park. I think the rest of the year is gonna be,
40:24Rod Palmer pretty interesting. I'm excited to to watch it, how it goes. I did some bets on the price of Bitcoin going up on Predix this week. So I double bet on Bitcoin going up by owning Bitcoin and by betting that it will go up on Predict.
40:45Richard Greaser Tonight, they're adding. So if you if you saw the news about the $2,000 stimulus checks that Trump just tweeted through social about from the the trying to get people to support the tariffs, I bet that that is
41:03Richard Greaser not gonna happen by the end of next year. And pre I'd ask Predix to put up a market. So if you think that we're actually gonna get the tariff dividend checks, or if you don't, you can go you can go by on that and predicts. So I don't think we're getting them. There's a bunch of other cool ones on there. Whether you need to take the slot fork, Dathan Ohm just,
41:26Richard Greaser promised to the newest pull request for bid $4.04 4. It's called the, restrict transaction. Hold on. It's the RTSD
41:36Rod Palmer fork. Because what it's called? What does that stand for? I wanna see if, I think a good I might have to create a market for Will Mathcatter make it through a month without doing a video on child porn? I'll take the, no,
41:50Richard Greaser Alex. Trebek. What? I said I'll take the no mister Trebek.
42:00Rod Palmer Who's Trebek?
42:02Richard Greaser Fauch Trebek. Jeopardy.
42:05Rod Palmer Oh, Boomerslop TV show? Yeah. I thought Yeah. Alright. Onto the found booth. So we had a split episode last week, part one and part two. Read both. Kate skate Kate KT added a profile picture on Oster.
42:24Rod Palmer We're getting hints that she's hot, but no direct confirmation yet. Well, you're hot in our books if you're boosting our podcast, Kate. She says, for twenty 300 sats says, I passed the jab test but failed miserably on the psyop that this time would be different. The second he lost his shitcoin, I knew I'd been duped. The only consolation is that the memes are better, and I thoroughly enjoy the irony of being called a fascist for not supporting government intervention. I feel like not getting,
42:57Rod Palmer not getting vaccinated was like the younger generations Woodstock moment. Or their Vietnam. Like the equivalent of dodging the draft of Vietnam, Fleeing to Canada
43:08Richard Greaser to avoid, getting jailed. That's why you couldn't you couldn't flee to Canada
43:12Rod Palmer for this one. You had to go to Mexico. I'm pretty sure Mexico is pretty aggressive with their stuff.
43:18Richard Greaser Right? No. I well, no. I I knew it well. Maybe you're right, but I knew a bunch of people who moved there because they didn't there was, like, a a refuge for it. Maybe only the cartels had to. Maybe the cartels had to get the vaccine.
43:34Rod Palmer You know, I I bet you the reason why, Donald Trump launches Meancoin was just a spite predator.
43:40Richard Greaser It was, you know, a show of, you know, defiance for sure. Like, he we won't be intimidated by by Platterer. He may have had Gary Gensler's ear, but he doesn't have ours. KT also motor boost
43:59Richard Greaser 1230¢ also I'm extremely disappointed that our SBR is being built with nefariously confiscated coins only and the funding for the White House Ballroom comes from Big Tech, Ripple, Coinbase and Tether, but nothing shady or concerning to see here folks
44:16Rod Palmer go back to your regularly scheduled flip slot. Well, the funny the funny thing about the SBR, regardless of whether it was funded, it was gonna be through stolen, confiscated funds at some point or some form
44:32Richard Greaser like Right. Of course. Whether it was debasement or, you know, just straight up stealing it from people.
44:38Rod Palmer Yeah. I I think what people generally wanted was for the state to go and steal dollars from people and then Yeah. Market buy it. And so, you know, one of the problems with taking it from hackers is it didn't have any buy pressure on the market. So I think that's where they're grumpy.
44:55Richard Greaser Yeah. It's like the ETFs now that they they they allowed in kind redemptions where you can just straight up trade the in if they wanted in kind, government theft. They want or they did not want in kind government theft they wanted them to print the tethers first
45:14Richard Greaser debase the dollar and then buy it pump their bags not just take it directly from the citizens because that's too it's just, you know, it's achy. It doesn't feel right. Doing it pumping pumping, you know, Britain money to buy it. It just it doesn't make anybody feel bad. Yeah. I guess that makes sense. It's just it's just a strange model
45:39Rod Palmer in general. The, you know, the people that lose their funds to these people, what happens to them? Because they don't get it back because in the SBR. What do you what do you call it? Civil civil asset forfeiture?
45:50Richard Greaser Yeah. That's what they call it most of the time. Or they just say it's like, you know, been in inactive
45:58Rod Palmer or it was, yeah, civil offices make and say you committed a crime so they're taking it Yeah, I guess the crime for the people that lost the coins was that they lost the coins If you lose your coins folks it gets stolen or hacked from you. It ends up in the SBR. Congratulations, I guess. Next boost, seven twenty one sats from Rev Hoddle says, it's time the pioneers
46:23Rod Palmer organized a rally. Rally on the frontier. Rallying on the ground. Rallying around Bitcoin sovereignty and freedom. Show the plebs and Podkoff that the pioneers are alive and well. Show them the movement is at the doorstep. Plebslot be damned.
46:41Rod Palmer Yeah. You know, it's interesting. The rally meme came from, Lake Satoshi, you know, because there were some rallying. They there there were some Plebslop goofballs that showed up to the capital Michigan, Lansing, and and organized a rally. It was called paint the lawn orange. So I guess they took paint and they painted the the tips of grass orange to show the politicians that they like Bitcoin. So we were making fun of that. Carl,
47:15Rod Palmer was making fun of that. But what I think he's saying is, you know, we're in this game of perception. Right? And you look around you, you you just the way the algorithms curate information for you, the way you know, just having interactions with people that are just repeating what the algorithms are curating for you. It's hard not to feel like you're you're alone in the world. Like, everybody else is retarded,
47:38Rod Palmer You know? Because the pioneers are out there, you know, in the wilderness going in separate directions. They're not really congregating in in the same area. So it's one of the challenges is, there there's creative ways that you can,
47:55Rod Palmer put your signal out there to find like minded people, but I don't I don't know how productive a, you know, rally would be and because you just get on people's radar, and that's not always a good thing. Like, it's like John Galt and Atlas Shrugged did not put up billboards for cool people to come and hang out with them. He just kinda disappeared off the face of the planet and attracted people
48:22Rod Palmer to his, his Gulch. And and I think that's a similar interesting model to take. You're not gonna convince retards to be not be
48:39Richard Greaser retarded. Yeah, this takes Satosh's advice. If you don't get it, you don't understand. I don't have time to convince you. I'm not gonna come do, primitives on in paying your probably wants their grass painted orange. Leave people's grass alone people putting our work in a bit next one's from Sasha Sasha Hodder big fan, of the show 500 Sats great show thanks
49:06Rod Palmer You're welcome. Thank you. Next one, front bubble 400 sets is it's just the normal fucking distractions. If Hailey were real, she could set it straight by smoking on the White House steps, but she ain't so it goes on and on. I don't know what to make of that. What is he talking about? I don't know. You know It is
49:31Rod Palmer go ahead. If Kaylee Welch was a little bit older, she'd be a great candidate to be in the Trump administration because he likes, these older attractive blonde women.
49:43Richard Greaser Hell yeah. That'd be he'd be like, should be a good producer for for some of the social media content, you know, and they got a pretty cool social media profile now. Like, they post a lot of cool memes, a lot of TikTok videos, a lot of broccoli haircut stuff. She'd be good for, like, management of that in ten years.
50:03Richard Greaser Next was a 100 sats for BTC on board, three thumbs up and a heart. Normally it's just three thumbs up. You get a heart this time and then another one for a 100 sats from BTC on board. We are in the best timeline.
50:17Rod Palmer Hell yeah, we are. All right. On the part two fundamentals, 10,101 says, way to stay focused on winning and keep it rolling.
50:29Richard Greaser My screen didn't update here. I'm I'm reading off, still reading off your the part one. There we go. Oh, yeah. Next one. Oh, thank you fundamentals. You the man. We had some we had the in fundamentals, had some good conversations. We got we're gonna do Nian Fundamentals one on one here pretty soon for the subscribers so look be looking forward to that.
50:55Richard Greaser Next is from Katie. Katie T. 2,300 stats. Gentlemen, pay no attention to anyone that complains about you continuing to raise awareness about blood slop. Everyone knows that nothing stops this train,
51:09Richard Greaser but not enough people know that nothing stops the slop. And Rod, I owe you an apology from a few episodes back. Nickelback is the band that doesn't even qualify as slop not Creed sorry and momentarily confused the two and sewn based in the midst after this episode's legendary quote still drinking that sweet greasy plebs slop like it's artisanal bone broth
51:31Richard Greaser I will never doubt you again last I always thought chemtrails made better sunsets but I guess I'm rarely up early enough to prove that theory against sunrises I think this is an important question for a Dear Bubba episode hear that Dear Baba
51:49Richard Greaser and if we don't get an episode be God, meaning you have that you weigh in do chemtrails make better sunsets or sunrises what do you think? I don't, I haven't thought about it, I haven't really looked up in the sky looking for this moon before. I think, yeah,
52:08Rod Palmer I I don't know. I haven't studied chemtrails that are close enough to really have any sort of opinions on them. But I think they probably impact sunrises and sunsets equally would be my guess. So probably if they make either better, it probably makes both better.
52:29Richard Greaser Probably depends on your perspective if you're a morning person or a night owl.
52:35Rod Palmer I think I mean, I think this kind of framing is like, does breast implants make tits better? It makes them bigger. I don't know if it makes them better. You know what I mean? Like, natural is the way to go.
52:48Richard Greaser We have to know the, sometimes it's important to know the base base case, like, better than what? What was that came before
53:01Rod Palmer it? Yeah. How how sloppy were the tits before,
53:04Richard Greaser the Were they symmetric?
53:06Rod Palmer Were they big already? Floppy? Saggy? Removed? Yeah. I don't know. Like, thank you for the boost. Skeet, Kate. Bubba 2,112 says, I be the contrarian here on Corey and Swan. In present day and present for maybe they've lost the plot. But in 2020, while I still lived on the road, Brady's podcast and Corey all over everywhere, Swan was my pathway in.
53:34Rod Palmer And for that, I am grateful. For a simpleton like me, it was made easy and understandable. Because of that, I could retire early. Again, grateful for that. All my early the majority of my stack was through Swan. Granted, when Prime Trust went belly up, I walked away. But for me, in current day, I truly don't care
53:56Rod Palmer what is going on with all this shit. There's entertainment they're entertaining, but that's as far as I can go with it. For me, not the bad bow somebody will tell you all you need to know. So as is very unusual for me, I will stand on the sidelines and just move the chains and goalpost.
54:17Rod Palmer Yeah. You know, I can appreciate that, Bubba. And and I want you to understand the reason why I was shitting on Corey this week is because he was crashing out on, like, five of my posts. He was all over me. He was he was just
54:32Rod Palmer he he lost his mind. It was like I was talking to Bitcoin Keith Oberman, and that's the only reason why I brought him up. I, like, I I don't really care, all that much about Corey. Like, in in many circumstances, I've been, you know, one of the biggest
54:55Rod Palmer defenders of Corey and trying to encourage people to stop slinging anti swanitism at him because his yet, as far as I've seen to like, the the situation with the clawbacks or tend to clawbacks and and the doxing their customers via lawsuits
55:15Rod Palmer by print trust is pretty lame, but I don't think he's lost any customers funds yet. So there's, I think, you know, one of the learning lessons for people is anything, any personal information they put on the Internet is, up for grabs regardless of whether you put it on with Swan or or your
55:37Rod Palmer Comcast or, you know, whoever you're using. You're you're fucked regardless. So I don't think we can hold that much against Corey in that regard. But,
55:48Richard Greaser Well, you're it was a understandably, Blah Blah is a veteran of the Swan Force, and you you don't wanna talk. They wanted to, like, you know, diss your service. Nobody wants to diss your service. But, you know, part of it is people just need to admit it's swan it was this way for a lot of people they brought a lot of people into the space and it was a good time it was it was cool to be a swanfluencer
56:14Richard Greaser it was cool to be in the swan force like it was it was a it was a act of positive force, for people getting into Bay Corner. Right? It was a great, entry point. And then Corey Dean Corey and just some decision. They just
56:31Richard Greaser they got cringey to kind of embarrass people. You know, people didn't, you know, they didn't know who Harald LeCoux was. They didn't know who some of these guys were, Udi, when they first got in the space, and they were listening to podcasts. And then they found out later and it just became, you know, they they felt embarrassed for, you know, having the Swan ref link in their pile, telling their friends to to go there and they're they so they, you know, they're mad at Swan, they're mad at Corey and, you know, so it's it's it's not Corey has some responsibility here he did embarrass
57:03Richard Greaser his his for his customers by being cringe but you know it it doesn't negate the, you know, it doesn't make you it doesn't make you cringe if you came out. I mean, I came into pomp, listened to the pomp podcast. Like, that's embarrassing. Like, you just gotta get over it. You can't get mad at them.
57:23Richard Greaser A lot of people came in through Coinbase and they hate Coinbase now. Well, like, you know,
57:27Rod Palmer in in many ways, because of how little communication there is on or education on the way the world works. When you start engaging in these concepts and trying to hit things from first principles, you're you're kinda starting over as, like, a child. Like, you're going back to grade school, and we're learning these very basic concepts.
57:50Richard Greaser And so Yeah. And and Tomer Strolli was a great kindergarten teacher. He is like the creator for people today. Right? Like, people are gonna be really cray feel really cringe about going to Bitcoin University. It's gonna become embarrassing to them. They're probably gonna lash out at creator. But who knows? Like, if that was if that was the life raft, it was it was beneficial.
58:15Rod Palmer Yeah. In many ways, Swan was like the Sesame Street of, Bitcoin education. Corey is Elmo.
58:24Richard Greaser Corey's Corey's Big Bird.
58:27Rod Palmer Even looks like Big Bird. Does that make Brady Elmo? Brady and Alex Danzek, Elmo and Ernie?
58:34Richard Greaser I I I would I would I would say Brandon Quiddum is Elmo. So then Brady's, the Greggy Greggy's Greggy's the Count, you know, Wait. I'm mixing I'm mixing up the Muppets, I think. It's, I don't know. Mount Bernard and Ernie, there's Sesame Street.
58:51Rod Palmer Oh, okay. Well, Bernie Bernie was, Nico and Opdy. Yeah. They were on the swamp flaunts or training for a little bit.
59:02Richard Greaser Lawrence before Yeah. Big the based off a lot of this guy. I guess they they fired,
59:08Rod Palmer yeah. I guess simply Bitcoin now is, is the Sesame Street of Bitcoin. They've kind of taken over the reins from Swan. At one point, they were, adjoined. So fascinating. But yeah. I mean, you grow out of that. Like, if you're grown adult
59:25Rod Palmer like, this this is one of the strange phenomenons that we're seeing today is there's a lot of grown adults that are obsessed with children shows. Absolutely obsessed.
59:36Richard Greaser Disney adults, middle aged man who wear superhero t shirts when they go to Lowe's or Home Depot. Yeah. All kind now.
59:47Rod Palmer So if you're an adult and you really like Star Wars or if you really like the Marvel Universe, does that make you a Disney adult? Or is that more like a Disney adolescent? It's a good question. Alright. Well, thanks for the boost, Bubba.
1:00:03Richard Greaser The X-one is, from from our man, Shadrach, 323 sets, mile high boost again, forty hours per week, cigarette emoji. Normally, that's open mic. The Shadrach has been doing the hitting mile high boost too. Interesting.
1:00:20Rod Palmer Yeah. I mean, you get on the Boeing seven thirty seven max. Those don't have the best tracker record recently. Things are kind of walking with the FAA. Pilots can't smoke cigarettes. Might get a woman pilot. What what do you do if you get, like, a Asian woman pilot? Better hope that,
1:00:43Richard Greaser whatever happens is a math problem to solve. Not a not a not a, like, a driving maneuver problem.
1:00:53Rod Palmer Yeah. We we have to admit that, you know, flying isn't that dangerous, but it, you know, it feels a little bit more dangerous with the way that it's been covered in the media recently. But, you know, it is kind of cool to think about if the last thing that you do in an emergency situation when the plane crashes, listen to the Bugle Weekly. Again, I think it's a pretty good activity to do when you're up in the air.
1:01:18Richard Greaser Every time every time you listen, just put your headphones on and say, let's roll. Absolutely.
1:01:27Rod Palmer Well, yeah. That wraps up the the boost for the week. I'm gonna put out a paid subscriber content thing about the shit coins. My thoughts on the shit coins. So look out for that coming out here in the next few days, folks.
1:01:45Rod Palmer You got any closing thoughts for this? Yeah.
1:01:49Richard Greaser The latest episode or latest issue of stack chain magazine, the IPO issue just came out today. And, I'm the f my my story on paper Bitcoin, the hardest money ever printed
1:02:05Richard Greaser is the feature story of Stackchains up, issue. Check that out by the by an issue of, subscribe to Stackchain Magazine
1:02:16Rod Palmer to see my article. It was a good article. I got to read it before it was published. I would yeah. I have yet to open up a Stackchain magazine and read it. I've had a couple articles published with them, but I the ones that I have are still sealed.
1:02:32Richard Greaser Yeah. To see luckily, my episode of the Tell Me or my issue of Tell Me, will stay sealed because I can read it and, see pictures of it. But, maybe I I actually bought to you because I'll have to open one so I can read the rest. There's some pretty good ones in there.
1:02:50Rod Palmer Yeah. I think if we ever do a magazine, what would make sense is to, you know, seal it, have them sealed, and then have a QR code slipped in on the front where people can scan it for digital copies so they can read it. That might be Yeah. You should,
1:03:07Richard Greaser yeah. You guys should, reach out to Evan Kalupis, Etsy's wallet. He's got, like, a creator's lightning platform where you can buy, like, the digital version of, where you know, unlock the digital version of a book like a fundamentals, bitcoins for institutions
1:03:26Richard Greaser or, or Stackchain and read it so you don't have to open it and, you know, stack chain magazines like the Sistine Chapel, like you don't wanna, like, ruin its to pristine this by opening it and and and getting chocolate milk or Mountain Dew or cigarette ashes on on the magazine.
1:03:47Rod Palmer Yeah. I think, Podcom's working on Club Slop magazine. I'm pretty interested to see what that looks like. No. It's Slock Chain magazine. Or slot yeah. Slob Chain magazine. Yeah. That'll be interesting. Alrighty, folks. Well, thank you for listening to this edition of Bugle Weekly. Thank you to our subscribers. Appreciate you guys. We've got,
1:04:11Rod Palmer course found it doesn't load. I need it to what's going on here?

1:04:58Rod Palmer Sean, Turkey, BTC on board. They got them all. Thank you guys for subscribing, and, we'll catch you on the next edition of Beagle Weekly. Yeah. Is Bitcoin dead?
1:05:12Unknown Did somebody spam a block? Should we throw a funeral? Nah, fam. It's a pity party. Bring your slot buckets and your block explorers. OMG, it airs JPEGs in my blockchain suit. Better call the v squad rally of the troops. Some kid paid 30 sass to ride a frog in the chain. Now Twitter's crying, boom, like the sky's spilling rain.
