0:03Pastor Jeffs Hello Bugle listeners. This is Pastor Jeffs. God has put it on my heart to share with you prophetic visions of what is yet to come. The Lord has called us all to respect authority and to be able to afford our taxes. For The United States is a Christian nation and Donald Trump is ordained by the Lord.

0:28Pastor Jeffs Last week, I was praying to the Lord and I saw a vision of what is to come. The Lord showed me a rocket ship blasting up into the heavens. The rocket ship was built by Elon Musk, but funded by your tax money. It was a rocket ship destined to save our great Christian nation from complete and utter destruction. Are you listening to the Lord like I am? Do you hear the call of NGU? If you are, you will know that my words are true. But remember,

1:02Pastor Jeffs this is not financial advice. Only Jesus can give you financial advice. If you trust in the Lord, you will know where to invest so that you will be able to afford your taxes. As I saw this vision of what is yet to come, I heard a voice from the heaven speak to me. A dove came down from the clouds and the voice said, I am God and I will bring a pump that makes all others before it seem trivial.

1:32Pastor Jeffs Those who have put their faith in me and DCA'd on KYC exchanges will never have to worry about being able to afford their taxes ever again.

1:55Unknown Welcome to this edition of the Bugle Weekly, the most thermodynamically sound podcast ever produced. Do you smell the change on the horizon? The shift of the Overton window is undeniable. As podcasters,

2:12Unknown we are documenting history. Through these conversations, we are preserving knowledge for generations yet to come. When your kids and grandkids listen to this, they will know the importance

2:27Unknown of what you have been a part of. By listening to forty hours of podcasts a week, you are solidifying our bright orange future. Thank you. Thank you for being a Bitcoin podcast listener,

2:43Unknown and thank you for being a Bugle weekly listener. We hope you enjoy the show. You are the change that the world needs. Now buckle up because here are your hosts, Rod Palmer and Richard Grieser.

3:02Richard Greaser Welcome to this edition of the Bugle Weekly. Joining me today as usual is Rob Palmer. How you doing, Rob?

3:14Rod Palmer Doing fantastic, Richard. What a big week. What a huge weekend. And we're heading into an even bigger week tomorrow.

3:24Rod Palmer Donald Trump takes over. He takes president. He's gonna free Ross. He's gonna set up the strategic Bitcoin reserve. Yeah. It's crazy. I mean, I don't know. I haven't looked at the numbers since this morning. But as of this morning, Trump's Shakecoin which we're gonna get into the crypto ball that he launched, Trumpcoin,

3:46Rod Palmer this weekend, Donald Trump made upwards of $50,000,000,000 USDT, from his shitcoin and, people are saying that he is going to, like everybody else, use his profits

4:03Rod Palmer from shit coining and he's gonna buy Bitcoin with us. So we can expect somewhere in the range if his profits hold a 50,000,000,000 USDT smash buy into Bitcoin. New all time highs this week. It's very,

4:19Rod Palmer very

4:20Richard Greaser bullish. Yeah. We'll see. I I think it's bullish for different reasons. One of the things that he's promising to do is to declassify all these files about JFK, RFK,

4:36Richard Greaser and MLK, and essentially prove that The US intelligence agencies were involved in their assassinations, which to me thinks

4:51Richard Greaser it leads me to think that when he declassifies that, more people are gonna become based. They're gonna spin up Bitcoin podcasts and the price is gonna go up because of that. Absolutely.

5:05Rod Palmer And last night, yesterday was the big crypto ball in Washington DC. You probably saw pictures on the timeline of people in tuxedos getting stoned with Snoop Dogg and Michael Saylor,

5:21Rod Palmer Natalie Brunel, some of the crypto people. Big time shitcoiners and people were asking what was

5:31Rod Palmer this CryptoBall. And besides being probably even a better party than the Michael Saylor one hundred ks party on the yacht in Miami, It's kind of a, like a Geneva Conventions. Like, we all complied the government.

5:48Rod Palmer We defeated them in November. And it's time to rewrite the rules of what it means to be compliant as Bitcoiners in the digital asset space.

6:02Rod Palmer So, David Bailey, some of the biggest Bitcoin podcasters, crypto founders, VCs, crypto and Bitcoin influencers, they have all gathered and they were getting drunk and talking

6:16Rod Palmer to Feds and people who've been to ditty parties and they are rewriting the rules of compla- the compliance cantillionaire ball is maybe what it should have been called. Because we are going to rewrite all the rules in the next few months.

6:35Rod Palmer They all kicked off last night. Yeah.

6:38Richard Greaser I mean, Natalie Burnell definitely put on a strong statement to AOC, letting AOC know that she's no longer the the dictator of clients means and that there's a new,

6:54Richard Greaser share or

6:56Rod Palmer Yeah, AOC wore a very famous dress that said tax the rich a few years ago and with the new Trump administration, with the strategic Bitcoin reserve and with him pumping

7:11Rod Palmer Bitcoin's price, everybody's gonna be able to afford their taxes. Taxing the rich, that's kind of like saying, you know vaccinate for polio. We're all we've all been done, we've all done that. It's covered.

7:26Rod Palmer And now it's time. Now that everybody can afford their taxes, it's time to fix the money. And fixing the money means the dollar is broken, and it needs to be fixed with bitcoin. If we can use the strategic bitcoin reserve to back the dollar.

7:46Rod Palmer Bitcoin fixes this right? Bitcoin fixes the dollar. So now everybody can afford their taxes and we fixed the currency. There really is no there's no impedance

8:01Rod Palmer to fixing the rest of the world now. Yeah, I think

8:06Richard Greaser what fixing the money really means is it takes economic policy out of the hands of bankers and central bankers and puts it in the hands of Bitcoin podcasters. Right.

8:21Rod Palmer It puts it in the hands of the people who have been doing the work to understand all the problems in society and what needs to be fixed with a with a hard sound money. And it's putting them to work doing it. No longer do we have PhD economists

8:41Rod Palmer who have not been out in the world. They have not listened to hours and hours of the best orange billing stories from pledge on Bitcoin podcasts. They've only been studying, you know, fiat economics. So they don't know how to fix things. They only know how to make more, you know, academic models. But Bitcoin podcasters

9:01Rod Palmer have like a a backlog of all of these problems that have been fixed by PLEBs in their local areas with Bitcoin and how they can extrapolate that to fix the rest of the world. Totally.

9:15Richard Greaser I mean Bitcoin podcasters have to fix all sorts of problems. They have to be flexible. So when you're in the middle of an interview, for example, with somebody important, somebody that has a lot of speaking engagements,

9:32Richard Greaser somebody that might get frustrated at you if you, have technical difficulties. You have to be able to think on your feet and be able to ask good questions in the interview as well as figure out why your hardware isn't working at the same time. And that's the type of problem solving in leadership

9:53Richard Greaser that we need

9:55Rod Palmer in Washington. That they don't the people in Washington up until this point have not been able to adapt and to be flexible in the face of technical difficulties. They face technical difficulties and they freeze and they panic

10:15Rod Palmer and they just let their PR person spin the problem to make it seem like it's actually good. But that doesn't actually help anybody. But being able to adjust on the fly

10:29Rod Palmer and still put out a good podcast episode, if you can do that, there's really not much you can't do. 100%. Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead.

10:40Richard Greaser The problem isn't that people have power over things that they shouldn't have power over. The the problem has been that the wrong people

10:54Richard Greaser are in control and power, right? Right, right.

10:58Rod Palmer It's about problem solving, it's about problem solving skills. If you can figure out your podcast setup whether use Riverside or,

11:11Rod Palmer one of these other platforms. Or if you can connect your Bitcoin Core node to an Electrum server and then connect Sparrow wallet to it and then use your cold card to connect to the Sparrow Wallet. That's

11:28Rod Palmer people, I mean you have to watch. Some people have to watch over ten hours of BT sessions, tutorials to be able to do just half of what I just talked about. And some people now can do that on the fly under five minutes.

11:44Rod Palmer If you can do, if you can do that, you can connect your own Bitcoin Core node and use a cold card. You can, you can do it. You can fix welfare. You can fix the education system. There's, think about anything you learned in school. How many hours you had to study and sit in class and be bored. Replace that with a BT Sessions tutorial,

12:08Rod Palmer replace that with a Bitcoin podcast. That's an hour long at most. The rest of your day is now wide open as a student to fix problems that you just learned how to solve. Yeah.

12:21Richard Greaser I mean, you think about it. So, like, libertarians kinda have this silly idea, which is that taxation is theft. Right? And I know it feels like that when the IRS agents, you know, come in and shaking you down when you can't afford your taxes aren't based.

12:42Richard Greaser But the problem is we just have the wrong people doing it. It's not that taxation is theft, it's that the taxers aren't based. And that's something that's changing and and will change with Bitcoin podcasters at the helm deciding

12:60Richard Greaser what the new face of compliance looks like. Speaking of the,

13:06Rod Palmer the new face of compliance, we mentioned it briefly, but have you been following Trump Coin? Very little. Well, it's only been around for about twenty hours,

13:21Rod Palmer but the I'm looking for the market cap here. It is enormous. I mean, it started at zero and now it is at data unavailable. Coinbase fucking sucks. What does like a good Well, anyway, it was over 55,000,000,000 up to 70,000,000,000 market cap and Trump,

13:40Rod Palmer his wallet, the, the pre mine so to speak, they owe 80% of it. So that's why I talked about what Trump realizes he's got $50.70, $100,000,000,000

13:53Rod Palmer in profit that he made in like two days. Where's he gonna store that? Where's he gonna store that profit? Bitcoin of course. So like, not only is this Trump coin which some people might see this as degeneracy, gambling, scamming,

14:13Rod Palmer but Donald Trump's going to rug pull all of the degenerate meme coin scammers. When he pulls out of this, he's gonna put it into Bitcoin. He's going to benefit Plex. He's gonna benefit Savers, DCA, everybody who's Bitcoin only. They're going to be the beneficiaries of this huge pump. So sometimes you have to break a few eggs to make an omelet.

14:36Rod Palmer People are really critical of Trump's shitcoin, but at the end of the day, it's going to massively benefit

14:42Richard Greaser Bitcoin. Yeah, I think that's pretty apparent. One of the shifts, as we're talking about government becoming more based, one of the big shifts that I see on the horizon is the shift from insider trading. People know that all these politicians so like Elizabeth Warren's a good example, right? Where she only makes like $300,000 a year, but she's worth like $30,000,000 Essentially, what these politicians have done is they're

15:08Richard Greaser not compensated properly for all the value they provide the world. Because they're essentially dictating the success of The US economy. They're writing the legislation

15:21Richard Greaser that helps support economic stimulus for the military industrial complex. They allocate money to the CIA and different groups which promote

15:36Richard Greaser dollar hegemony globally. They are managing the health of

15:46Richard Greaser essentially the underlying value of Tether on Tron. So they are managing the health

15:53Rod Palmer of Tron users in the Global South. Not just American citizens. And, one of the problems with taxes, we talked about this, that it was just a awoken, not the remote dynamically sound system. But with this new administration coming in,

16:14Rod Palmer it's realigning to what taxes were originally supposed to be. It was supposed to be the fundamental underlying foundation

16:27Rod Palmer of the value for value economy. You get value from the government when it is based and in return you send value back to the government in the form of taxes.

16:41Rod Palmer And when that value for value relationship becomes non coercive, it becomes a true value for value exchange,

16:53Richard Greaser then you have a healthy society. Yeah, I mean that's one of the big shifts that we're seeing you know, is I don't think politicians like Elizabeth Warren or Nancy Pelosi

17:06Richard Greaser who've been making all their money from insider trading are gonna be able to make money off of meme coins in the same way that Trump will. Right. And that's because they represent their corporate

17:20Richard Greaser donors and individuals giving them the inside information. But the clubs don't have inside information that can make them a lot of money oftentimes outside of just being able to tell them to buy Bitcoin. The Plubs have that inside information because they listen to forty hours of Bitcoin podcasts a week.

17:42Richard Greaser But yeah, if you make essentially bribing politicians or open source based on popularity like meme coins are, it really opens the door for a better, more thermodynamically

17:56Richard Greaser sound world in my opinion.

17:59Rod Palmer And the solution seems obvious in hindsight, but it requires a lot of will. It requires a lot of collective public will and I think that looking back at these fires

18:14Rod Palmer in Los Angeles and you have a place like California where the taxes are higher than anywhere else in the country and you have this Palisades fire is it it destroyed thousands of homes in one of

18:30Rod Palmer the zip codes where people can afford their taxes more than just about anywhere else in the country. And you see this devastation. And there's a lot of people that saw this and they looked at themselves and they looked at each other or they just thought internally, if this can happen

18:52Rod Palmer to people who can afford their taxes, it can happen to anybody. If we don't fix this system, we can lose everything. And so, people are going to be looking for much more value for their tax dollars spent

19:08Rod Palmer than what they were getting previously. And it's kind of on us as citizens, as taxpayers, we do not demand enough integrity and enough value back for the taxes we were paying. And we let it be spent on ditty parties

19:26Rod Palmer and Ukraine and Israel. And it's like bombs seem really cool. And if you say a bomb costs a billion dollars and then you see a super based video on YouTube of a bomb like that blows up like the bottom of a mountain like miles below you're going, Wow, that was definitely worth a billion dollars. But it's hard to verify that. And you start to say, well, maybe that billion dollars could have gone towards filling fire hydrants with water. Or making sure the rainwater went into the reservoirs that we spent a $100,000,000,000

19:58Rod Palmer building before so that when we have a fire, there's water to put it out. And not just you, you just extrapolate that even further the the services and just the different value that the government can provide and people are like, I wanna see those tax dollars spent here and I'm willing to pay more taxes if my bitcoins going up 10x to be sure that my house doesn't burn down because that's a lot of bitcoin on my seed phrase that's backed up on a piece of paper and if my house burns down I lose it. So we need the government to protect

20:30Rod Palmer the infrastructure to protect our our hardware wallets.

20:33Richard Greaser Definitely. Yeah. Very well said. We we had a discussion with Mars. He was the last guest we had on behind the podcast. One of the things that he thought was really important was the role of of Karens

20:50Richard Greaser in our society. And we know that if the Karens were empowered, there would have been water in the fire hydrants instead of dollars sent to Ukraine.

21:03Richard Greaser Right. That's really the wrong. It's like the the Karens have been captured, essentially. Like, they're they're sitting in Washington, DC, harassing Trump's

21:19Richard Greaser nominees. Like, that that's what the Karens are being used for instead of being used to go after those people and making sure there's water in the fire hydrants. It's a real problem. Just think about how many times you're out in public

21:35Rod Palmer and maybe you're at a restaurant or a convenience store or the DMV and you're just thinking to yourself, man, I'm not gonna lie. I kinda wish there was a Karen right now to ask to see the manager because I don't know what's going on here. Like the service here is terrible. And that's whether it's at Starbucks or at the IRS, or at the Department of Education.

22:02Rod Palmer It's time for parents to be allowed to ask to see the manager. It's time for the managers to be held accountable. I mean you go to some of these places. You go to some of these restaurants, some of these stores, they don't even have a manager. They don't even staff managers anymore because nobody is going to complain and ask to see the manager because they've so successfully silenced and distracted

22:23Rod Palmer the Karens who have kind of we didn't realize were the, you know, the first responders. When there was a problem, who is the first responder? Not the police, not the fire department. It was the Karen who thought to call them in the first place

22:40Rod Palmer and we just need more of that. Like we said, we talked about this with Mars, but the accountability level is just not there if you don't have a cannon

22:51Richard Greaser to demand it. Yeah. They're very clear. They they keep the bar much higher. This is this is one of the problems I think a lot of normal people have, which is they just kinda wanna get along with people, you know, even if they're unhappy about something, they

23:10Richard Greaser don't they're not willing to rock the boat

23:13Rod Palmer and say something. But a Karen is not afraid to transact adversarially. Mhmm. Karens thrive on transacting adversarially and there's just sometimes you think the incentives are aligned so that

23:29Rod Palmer you don't have to trust a third party. You don't have to, you know, that you've everything should be in a free market. Like, if they don't provide good service they're gonna go out of business. Then it's We kind of forget that it's up to us to keep those

23:48Rod Palmer free market competition standards and those incentives aligned properly because they're very, very easy to misalign. Totally.

24:00Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, there there's definitely been a concerted effort to pacify the current population. And I think a big part of it has been trying to get women in the workplace. Right?

24:15Richard Greaser So they've invented these jobs like HR and compliance, which are geared a lot more towards women.

24:25Richard Greaser They've expanded the workforce to essentially grow the tax base. And these women that otherwise would be Karens are too busy trying to work their asses off to be able to afford their taxes all day. So they don't have the time or energy

24:45Richard Greaser to ensure that their order at Starbucks is correct because they have to get to work. There's taxes.

24:51Rod Palmer Right. Right. And it seems like the demonization of Karens boils down to the fact that people were kinda like upset that Karens had the audacity to hold society

25:10Rod Palmer accountable to having higher standards if you're a taxpayer. If you're a tax if you can afford your taxes, you deserve at least the bare minimum of standards of service, of standards of care, of standards of respect. And it's, I think, starting tomorrow by January 20,

25:34Rod Palmer it's going to, it's going to be, there's going to be value, it's going to be worth it to afford your taxes. I mean, one of

25:43Richard Greaser the pillars of the Bushido of Bitcoin, I think we're aligned with Alex Jeske here. Right? So, like, he one of one of the things that he really believes in is that women shouldn't vote. He

25:59Richard Greaser is for as little distraction as possible. Like, what this is something a lot of people don't

26:08Richard Greaser talk about is the importance of having kids. Why is it important for women Karens to have kids? One of the reasons is because it gets them out in society. Right? It puts the it makes them tired. It puts them on edge. It makes them more in a mindset

26:29Richard Greaser where they're willing to demand higher standard. If they don't have kids and they're too busy, you know, focusing on on their career being a taxpayer, they just aren't gonna see the world in the same way, and they're not gonna have

26:45Richard Greaser as many reasons to demand

26:47Rod Palmer higher standards. Right. Right. Like having having having screaming children is gonna put a Karen at her wits end. And a Karen at her wits end is not going to put up with substandard values, substandard service that somebody who can afford her taxes deserves. She doesn't have time to deal with the bullshit,

27:12Rod Palmer so she's gonna speak up and ask to see the manager. And that's why it's one of the pillars of,

27:17Richard Greaser the Bushido Bitcoin. If we want to see this hyper Bitcoinized society, there needs to be an army of Karens,

27:25Rod Palmer this man only. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I don't agree with Spetsky on everything, but on his stance towards women's roles in society, I think he's spot on. I think that's probably where he is the most accurate. There's definitely some points to be taken,

27:44Richard Greaser seriously there.

27:46Rod Palmer Yeah, and I think it's I think that he is in a unique position to see this part of society and kind of have this perspective because, you know, it's not his fault that he was born really short. So, I think a lot of women kind of, they treat him like a young child. And, so he's able to see how these women, these Karens

28:11Rod Palmer would treat him. You know, if they were his, he was their child and he just notices the change in their

28:20Rod Palmer behavior, the change in their perspective when they are around somebody who is fussy

28:26Richard Greaser and short as him. Well, I kind of want to go back, talk a little bit more about Donald Trump. Absolutely. Do you think there's any potential for him to put up some Pepe paintings

28:39Rod Palmer in the White House? One of the criticisms and you know, depending on your perspective, one of the things he was praised for his first administration was they redid, they redesigned like the rose garden. They redesigned some of the paintings and artwork and I think especially Alec Baron, to help him.

28:58Rod Palmer We may see some Pepe paintings put up, some NFTs, maybe some, some dick butts like some digital NFTs destroyed in the Oval Office. It's gonna be a cultural renovation of

29:16Rod Palmer the halls of DC, of the White House itself and it's gonna reflect more, of the tastes and aesthetics of people who can afford their taxes now. Yep.

29:30Richard Greaser I I just I think people are really sleeping on the importance of having the first sitting president owning meme coins or having launched a meme coin.

29:42Rod Palmer It would be really cool if like what's, Tommy from Bitcoin Magazine. He's got some really good Pepe art, it'd be really cool to see like Donald Trump giving some sort of

29:56Rod Palmer press briefing about, you know, the ceasefire

30:01Richard Greaser between Israel and Hamas with a Pepe painting behind him. Yeah, I mean, it would be cool to see him give Tommy a middle of freedom. For sure. I think a lot of Bitcoin podcasters are gonna be getting middles of freedom. I think it's gonna be incredible. One thing I'm kinda wondering, do you what do you think the odds that he pardons Hockto, for her meme coin shenanigans?

30:24Rod Palmer I think I think he's gonna have to do it. People are really upset about HOKTUWA. Her podcast was really popular. It hasn't been put out since the broad pull of the

30:42Rod Palmer HAWK2A coin and she just needs to she needs to not have to worry about right now she's so worried about affording her taxes that she can't create the high quality content that we got so used to for like six months this year before it got pulled from us. And I think that's another thing. Now that people can afford their taxes

31:03Rod Palmer they're gonna have a lot more free time not just HawkgTuwa. And the content that they're gonna create the YouTube videos, the Bitcoin podcasts, it's gonna be a renaissance and I think that it should start with who being pardoned

31:20Rod Palmer and getting back to the regular cadence of podcasting content that she was putting out because like we said, if Ross gets freed tomorrow, a lot of the credit needs to go to Haunt Tua for getting that across the line.

31:47Pastor Jeffs At times the Lord seeks to test our faith in the face of adversity. Between the FTX collapse, Operation Chokepoint two point o, and general

32:01Pastor Jeffs anti crypto attitudes of the establishment, you may have felt like Job. You may have lost everything and like Job are questioning God. But how can you, a mere finite mortal, even begin to question the motives of the Lord

32:20Pastor Jeffs who spoke the universe into existence? Do you know the true amount of all the meme coins in existence? Do you know all the identities of individuals transacting on the Blockchain? You don't even know how many hairs are on your head,

32:39Pastor Jeffs but the Lord does. The Lord said to Job, who is this that obscures my plans with words without knowledge? Brace yourself like a man. I will question you, and you shall answer me. Where were you when I laid the Earth's foundation? Tell me if you understand.

33:00Pastor Jeffs Who marked off its dimensions? Surely, you know. Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footing set? Or who laid its cornerstone? While the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy. Why do you question the Lord, listener?

33:21Pastor Jeffs Will you lose faith just because things are hard? The Lord sent me a vision of what is yet to come. A vision of a world without inflation that is funded by free markets instead of coercion.

33:38Pastor Jeffs A world where the US government remains solvent and the dollar operates globally on blockchains. A world full of hope and meme coins.

33:51Pastor Jeffs Hope is not lost because the lord is in control. Find your faith in these trying times, and you will be rewarded.

34:15Richard Greaser Totally. I just think the Bitcoin community in general should be rallying behind her in the same way that they rallied behind Donald Trump.

34:25Rod Palmer 100%.

34:26Richard Greaser Like, one thing I will say about Donald Trump that's kind of interesting is I don't think he's ever passed a purity test. I don't think he could pass a single purity test. And yet so much of the larger

34:43Rod Palmer community supports him. I don't know if anybody can. That's I think that is the lesson to be learned that if he can't pass that purity test, how can anybody else be expected to?

34:54Richard Greaser Well, I I definitely think there are people that pass the purity test, Right? So typically the person who's best suited to pass the purity test is the one that creates the purity test. So individuals like

35:10Richard Greaser Jimmy Song, Predator, Francis at Bold Bitcoin,

35:16Rod Palmer those are kind of Right, but we need decentralized purity tests, not centralized purity tests. And what would that look like? I mean, find out where were you going with that? What do you think about his ability to pass that? What consequences do you think will come from some of these very high standard critics of his?

35:40Richard Greaser Well, I think the fact that he is being met with so much approval and yet he isn't able to pass any purity test, meaning that the over 10 window, as far as what is seen

35:57Richard Greaser as as acceptable by the Bitcoin podcaster community is shifting

36:05Rod Palmer pretty radically and it's shifting pretty quickly. What, what sort of standards do you think? Do you think we need new standards for politicians who claim to be orange pilled? Do you think that we should not let good be the enemy of perfect?

36:23Richard Greaser I just think people need to be very specific with what their standards are and to now is very clearly when they switch. So I almost think

36:36Richard Greaser the way to do it is all these Bitcoin podcasters should essentially have get GitHub pages where they can open source their standards that they hold people to. Right?

36:49Richard Greaser And anytime those standards change, they need to change it on the GitHub page so that's open source. And the reason why I think that is because to many casual Bitcoin podcast listeners, they might not be aware that the standards have changed.

37:09Richard Greaser Right? They might just think that the person's holding the these individuals to the same standards as they were three months ago. Right. If you, if you like deactivated your ex account in 2022

37:22Rod Palmer and you came back this week, you might see a lot of people being celebrated and praised for their what they're doing in the space and think, wait a minute, like these, these guys are huge shitcoiners. Why is everybody giving them a pass? What they don't understand, like the standards have changed. The standards have now changed.

37:44Rod Palmer If you're good for NGU, it's a skew, you kind of get a pass, but there needs to be like a status page or like you said, a GitHub repo where you can see the latest versions to see which no raw operating, software we're operating on.

37:56Richard Greaser Yeah. So I think that would be one of the first steps to decentralizing Purity Test would be open sourcing Bitcoin podcasters standards. Like one of the people I really want to hold their feet to the fire on because it's very murky where their standards are is Joe Nakamoto.

38:16Rod Palmer Oh, good point. Yeah, I mean he is, he will call out a meme coiner but he is essentially on Tether payroll.

38:25Richard Greaser Yeah. And that's not clear to people.

38:27Rod Palmer Right, like Podkomf gave JM3 and Samsung a compliance waiver for Tether but that was not extended to Joe Nakamoto and people think that just because Samsung got a Tether waiver that Joe Nakamoto

38:45Rod Palmer gets one but that's not how it worked. Totally.

38:49Richard Greaser Like, you know, Samson's very clear with where his standards are, right? Like he wears Tether t shirts, he talks about Tether.

39:02Richard Greaser It's very clear. But with Joe, it it almost presents like he has different standards than he actually does. It is kind of confusing.

39:15Rod Palmer And like Samsung doesn't really like crucify people for using Tether or using some of these other, like Liquid and some of these other protocols that are just not on chain Bitcoin only but Nakamoto does and you know, same like Jack Mallers. Jack Mallers works very closely

39:38Rod Palmer with Tether, uses Tether extensively in his strikeout, but he doesn't, he doesn't ridicule people for their

39:49Rod Palmer imperfections. But Joe is, he's very critical. He's very critical of Mark. He's very of Mark Goodwin. He's very critical of, the Ungovernable Misfits for their use of Monero, but, he doesn't extend that same criticism and that same high level of standards

40:09Rod Palmer to, Bitfinex or any of these Tether outfits. He doesn't extend that to El Salvador, etcetera. Pretty much all we need, like if you're against freedom,

40:21Richard Greaser I'm just asking you to declare that publicly. Just explain to people. Here's my policies. I wanna prevent people from thinking for themselves. I wanna prevent people from smoking cigarettes. I want to make it harder for you to afford your taxes.

40:40Richard Greaser I want you to be surveilled more. Just be clear about it. If that's actually your stances, just be clear about it. Be honest. And and it's almost like affinity scamming. You know what I mean? Where they try to ride off the coattails

40:58Richard Greaser of other people. They don't they don't ever say they're pro freedom, but they, you know, associate as if they are. And so individuals just kinda lump them in. Oh, you have Nakamoto in your username. You must like,

41:14Richard Greaser you know, this set of beliefs that, you know, are kind of generally accepted as as okay that most people have on their purity test.

41:23Rod Palmer And and speaking of this, one of our topics tonight, Mark Zuckerberg went on, Joe Rogan and he has

41:34Rod Palmer gone through a credible transformation. He's become very based and he's one of the things he wants to do and we talked about this previously was he's unleashing the Karens on Facebook. Who've they've been in Facebook jail,

41:49Rod Palmer due to lack of free speech. But now he's pro free speech and that is you know, the circumstances it free speech is good, but we don't know enough about Mark and his beliefs

42:06Rod Palmer to know why, what his positions were before. Why did he change? What did he think about free speech before it was easy to be against it because, you know, the government was working with him. But now that the government is more pro free speech,

42:24Rod Palmer We haven't really asked the question why. Why all of a sudden is the government, the deep state, Meta, Facebook, Twitter, why are these companies all of a sudden switching to be pro free speech? It doesn't seem to make sense that

42:43Rod Palmer that the people in power want free speech. But what do you think that the sudden switch has come? And why do you think people like Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and some of like Peter Thiel and some of these other big, elites, why do you think that they're suddenly so

42:59Richard Greaser pro free speech? Yeah, I mean, that's a really good question. And I think, like, another thing that has been failed people have failed

43:12Richard Greaser to ask Mark Zuckerberg is how did he change from, like an autistic robot into like a genuine human being in such a short time? Like how did that happen?

43:26Richard Greaser But on the topic of becoming based all of a sudden, why why are all these companies and and Silicon Valley type individuals becoming based? I think part of the reason is because Bitcoin podcasters have

43:44Richard Greaser have had so much power in shaping culture in our country. The population is becoming more based and these companies realize if they're gonna continue to make money and continue to surveil the populace and control the information channels,

44:01Richard Greaser they have to get the buy in of the podcast listeners. There's so much emphasis put on the Bitcoin voting block and not enough emphasis put on people essentially voting with their wallets

44:17Richard Greaser with all these different corporations or voting with their data and information. And we've seen this huge shift where people have moved to Twitter from Facebook because they're tired of not being allowed to be parents.

44:32Richard Greaser And when they pick up and move, they take all their user data with them, right? And so Zuckerberg no longer has that data to sell third parties. And huge economic

44:49Rod Palmer loss for these companies. Another reason I suspect is because, you know, the past few years there was a term that people became very familiar with called virtue signaling.

45:03Rod Palmer Where you would say that you believed something or that you, you know, held a political belief. There you just kind of looking for engagement and support for, you know your account or your tweet or your post. And there was a lot of people and you know, there was a lot of bots, a lot of spam, a lot of spoofing, civil attacks that,

45:26Rod Palmer people were saying a lot of things trying to gain the outward ribbons or just get a certain reaction out of other followers and other people who are on their social media platform. But it didn't translate to action. At the end of the day, people who can afford their taxes are much more likely to vote.

45:47Rod Palmer And when the censorship on these platforms was disproportionately censoring Bitcoin podcast people who could afford their taxes. It wasn't just Bitcoin podcasters but that was obviously a very large amount of those people. So Elon Musk had this data

46:05Rod Palmer about how the election is going to turn out and he was able to front run, the election with, you know, his stock portfolio, his company. He could choose the candidate that he wanted to gain the most influence with and because he had the

46:23Rod Palmer uncensored data of people who could afford their taxes and he knew which way the wind was blowing in terms of what they were going to do and get out and vote. The civil, the spoofing accounts, the bots, the foreign actors, the people who were just virtue signaling and saying whatever they thought could give the most reaction, they didn't necessarily have that incentive or were even going to go out and have the ability to vote, but the taxpayers could. And people like Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel,

46:53Rod Palmer they noticed that and now they want to open these platforms because the better signal they can get from taxpayers, the more they can

47:05Rod Palmer optimize their operations

47:09Richard Greaser to profit from it. Yeah. Well, I think it's going to be a very interesting week. We didn't do it at all this episode. We're kind of running out of time. We should do this next week. We should do our predictions for 2025. But I'm predicting things are gonna change very rapidly. There's gonna be a constant shift in the Overton window. It's gonna be cool to be a Karen. We're gonna we're gonna see

47:35Richard Greaser people that have been censoring people for saying the words gain retarded. Saying the words gain retarded. That's gonna be a huge shift. I think there's gonna be huge reduction in the size of HR departments across the board. They're gonna let the Jews run Hollywood again. Yeah, we should, before we do our predictions for 2025

47:56Rod Palmer next week, we should try to figure out if we can get those predictions on Poly Market to see if we could get people voting on our prediction. I mean, if we had our predictions on Poly Market last year,

48:09Richard Greaser I think people are gonna make a lot of money. I mean, people are gonna make a lot of money based off our predictions because they're gonna take it as a way to strategize what decisions to make over the next year, how to position themselves because that's the that's the role of journalists. Right?

48:29Rod Palmer Right. That is journalism tunnel lost its way and people were kind of looking for confirmation bias, but at a certain point if you can't trust the journalists and the news

48:43Rod Palmer to make good decisions, economical, rational decisions for your company, your future, your family, that journalism, that news becomes it's worthless. It's not valuable.

48:58Rod Palmer Regardless of how upset news or journalism might make you in certain circumstances, if it's accurate, you can use that data, that news to make good decisions. And that's what people are looking for. They want to listen to journalists who

49:14Rod Palmer will help them be able to afford their taxes in the future. Well, I think one of the things

49:20Richard Greaser I should probably do some somewhere in the near future. I don't know where I'm gonna find time to do this, but I should probably publish my standards on GitHub and announce any sort of changes. It'd be kind of interesting. Right, right. Yeah. At the very least, it's like

49:35Rod Palmer we have a page with just a few basic standards like is Linhalden hot? Yes. You know, things like that and it goes down from there and you can check that every day and we can even put it in the show notes of the show. It's like these are the standards that we're operating on for this podcast. If for some reason what we're saying doesn't make sense to you, you can go back and, you can reference

50:02Rod Palmer the standards page, the standards list, and say, oh okay, based on this published standard, that opinion makes sense to me. Yeah.

50:13Richard Greaser And if you wanna see any of our standards change, you can submit a pull request and then we'll decide whether we wanna merge it or not. But that way you have discussion around it. Well, anyways, should we get into the fountain boost?

50:29Rod Palmer Yeah, absolutely. We had a pretty good, pretty good amount of fountain boost. Last week was the 2024 recap episode 42 and the first boost, well, the total boost was 58,508. So 58,000, nice 58,

50:45Rod Palmer a good, twenty twenty four recap for sure. And the first place was from John over at Ungerable Misfits. He business 21,000 sats, great place, thank you John. And I said fundamentals is a terrible Jew.

51:01Rod Palmer Rumor has it he reattached his foreskin. Ouch, that sounds I don't know where he got it. Can he save it? I guess he saved it his whole life if he did that. I mean these are the things

51:13Richard Greaser you could do when you save in Bitcoin. So like when you can afford to pay your taxes, you can also afford to reattach your foreskin. It just allows you to have a freedom that you couldn't have without it. Well,

51:29Rod Palmer it may make him a terrible Jew, but fundamentals would love to hear more about that if, if you have a story to tell about reattaching it and how others could reattach theirs if they wanted to. Well, I think

51:41Richard Greaser this is an interesting purity test which Sean has created here for Jewish people. Absolutely. Do you think Donald Trump has his foreskin? I guess we could ask

51:53Rod Palmer Stormy Daniels. Apparently she would know. I don't know if she would reveal that information. Yeah. I I think part

52:02Richard Greaser of her receiving the hush money is she can't tell anybody whether he has his foreskin or not. Mhmm. But the other question that's kinda interesting,

52:14Richard Greaser I wonder what type of purity test Israelis have when they fly out politicians to kiss the wailing hole. Do you think they check and make sure

52:27Rod Palmer the politicians That's an interesting that's an interesting that you bring that up because I heard about, a story where sometimes Israel they have a lot of Palestinian hostages and prisoners and some of the higher level Hamas leaders,

52:46Rod Palmer their wives and girlfriends will end up getting pregnant and having children years after the, their husband had been mocked up in Israeli prisons.

52:59Rod Palmer And the lore or the story behind that is that the, excuse me, but also the, that people will smuggle out their sperm and they'll take their sperm to their wives so they can still have children.

53:18Rod Palmer And, some people believe that these sperm smugglers are really really, this network, they're really really advanced. They're kind of like delta force sperm smugglers. And it's,

53:32Rod Palmer you know, nobody ever thinks to do like a Maury poached DNA test to see if their wives just cheated on them instead of having their sperm smuggled out of prison. They just assumed that their wives were pure and they would never do something like that. So a good purity test would be to test some of these children of, you know, terrorists in prison to see if these sperm smugglers are as talented as they're given credit for. There's a ton of way to make purity testing more robust.

54:03Richard Greaser And I think using things like analyzing genetic data and using AI to analyze

54:14Rod Palmer We could add it to KYC. KYC can have purity tests involved.

54:19Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, it'd be really interesting to be able to, you know, measure purity tests based on people's private conversations in the group chats. Absolutely.

54:33Rod Palmer In AI, just scrape that day. That would be great.

54:36Richard Greaser Yeah. There's some rumors that that's already in the works. Interesting. Well, thank you for the boost, John. Appreciate it. Do you ever notice that John has two at symbols

54:48Rod Palmer in his username? I don't see that on my

54:52Richard Greaser on my app. It's probably doesn't integrate with no strings. Oh, that makes sense. The next one

54:57Rod Palmer is 10,000 sats from one of our a guy, I don't I think he's boosted every single episode so far from Pies. I better up my game to make sure I make next year's list of top boosters. So he boosts us 10,000 sats. Normally Pies boosts like

55:15Rod Palmer a couple 100 sats, four twenty sats. This one was 10,000. So thank you for the big waste pies. It's pretty early and we get a lot of really big boosts so we're gonna need to see some more baller 10,000 plus Sat boosts from you if you want to make next year's list because next year's list is probably gonna be a lot harder to get on of the top boosters, but we really appreciate this one.

55:38Richard Greaser Totally. Yeah. I mean, I think the key to be in a bigger booster is you have to go and earn more money. You know what I mean? And like that's the thing that really shifts in the bull market. Like the bull market's time to go make a lot of money.

55:57Rod Palmer Yeah. And honestly Pies listens to more Bitcoin podcasts than probably anybody out there. So if anybody can afford his taxes, I think it's Pies. So I think that his boosts, should reflect that. Agreed.

56:12Richard Greaser Yeah. It's really time to take all that podcast listening you've done and then apply it to real life because you don't really get anywhere by just having all the knowledge locked up in your head. And this is where I think some people get stuck

56:29Richard Greaser is they forget that they need to actually apply the things that they listen to. So don't get too caught up in the listening to forty hours part. There's also the implementing forty hours a week, what you listen to. That's really important. Yeah. We appreciate you,

56:51Richard Greaser Pies. Thank you for the 10,000 set booth. And, we look forward to having you as one of our biggest boosters over this next year. I think one of the challenges is to

57:07Richard Greaser be so like who were you remember top three? I think it's John, fundamentals, and Stackitoshi. Yeah. Well, our next boost is from Stackitoshi for 10,000.

57:20Richard Greaser It was a double boost, maybe like a fountain issue. So it was really 20,000. Said, boys...wtf, your audio

57:33Richard Greaser is horrendous, constantly cutting out. Here's some sets to help hire a producer

57:39Rod Palmer or at least get a new mic. Well, first of all, thank you so much for that. I am actually going to I'm buying that new mic tomorrow and using this, this boost

57:50Richard Greaser to help go towards that. So appreciate that. Yeah. I'm gonna be going back to Nashville here pretty soon to go track Kaylee down. Do you see she tweeted the other night and said she's still alive? So that was good to see. That was encouraging. Yeah. The Monero Bros did not

58:09Rod Palmer sell her off to, the feet pick sex slaves. So that's good to know. That was my biggest worry. I think

58:18Richard Greaser one of the challenges is there's just not enough bigger pool of podcast producers that live up to our purity test and standards. So, like, our decisions are we either significantly lower our our standards for a producer or we struggle

58:36Richard Greaser without one. And I really have a good answer for what the best direction to go with that is. But,

58:42Rod Palmer we just talked about it. Like, if we Bitcoin podcasters, we're the biggest problem solvers, so rest assured we will solve this problem.

58:50Richard Greaser Totally.

58:52Rod Palmer Well thank you for boost, Takatoshi. The next one is from fundamentals, the he says all this time Well first of all you eat boost as 10,000 SaaS. He said all this time I've been boosting with no ask to point my podcast.

59:08Rod Palmer I must have gone to a horrible Hebrew school. Yeah, I mean we talked about those fundamentals. He doesn't spend a lot of time and money promoting his own podcast, but you know, he's recently he has

59:25Rod Palmer started to recognize that issue and he is taking steps to promote the wrong paper Bitcoin podcast a little bit more aggressively. And hopefully that leads to more people.

59:41Rod Palmer It's a very good show. Everybody should check it out, so hopefully, he promotes that markets that progressively in 2025.

59:49Richard Greaser Yeah. Fundamentals has other podcasts to promote. There's one on my list that I started listening to briefly. Let me pull it up real quick so I can say the name of it. Dave's got two. He's got one about fish, not the

1:00:05Rod Palmer not the animal in the sea, but the the jam band p h I s h and he's got another one about about math.

1:00:14Richard Greaser So those are pretty exciting. Yeah. I don't think the the fish one is public yet. I I don't think he's published it. So we've gotten in a little bit of a sneak peek to that. But the motivate so his math podcast is called

1:00:31Richard Greaser Motivate the Math, And it's fundamentals in average Gary. So that's exciting. I don't I haven't listened to enough to comment.

1:00:41Richard Greaser Typically math isn't very important in the career path of journalists. And I think most Bitcoin podcast listeners don't really know how to do math or care about it all that much, though some do. So there's definitely like a niche audience there. And then the people that historically haven't cared about math have an opportunity to go listen to people

1:01:08Richard Greaser who care about math to figure out whether or not they should change their standards on that. Pretty exciting stuff. Well, you haven't asked us to,

1:01:20Richard Greaser promote your podcast, but I think we have every time anyways. Next, Bruce, no comment from FOMO Chronic for 1,001 SAT. Thank you very much FOMO Chronic.

1:01:35Richard Greaser I'll just read the next one too. From Orange Mart, our good friends at Orange Mart, 1,000 SATs, One of our top boosters last year. Bada bing, bada boost. Thank you very much Orange Mart. Yep and there's one more

1:01:49Rod Palmer there at the bottom. Wartime, three thirty three sats with a fire and a cheers emoji. Thank you Wartime for your boost and thank you to everybody who boosted and listened this week. Well, you got any closing thoughts before we wrap up? No. I'm excited about twenty twenty five predictions. So,

1:02:09Rod Palmer I think that one way to get in on this would be if you boost us this week, share one of your 2025 predictions with us and we'll read that on the air and we'll discuss that as well. Yeah, I think

1:02:25Richard Greaser before the month of January is over, everybody needs to publish their bingo card for 2025. I think that's pretty important activity. So we'll be working on that behind the scenes at the Beagle. I'll make sure we get a few of our writers on board with that, get their opinions. It'd be interesting to hear from

1:02:45Richard Greaser Maggie Morris and and Wayne Kerr and, you on your bingo cards, and we'll see who wins. We see maybe there'll be a prize

1:02:60Richard Greaser at the end of the year for whoever gets the most correct predictions or if you, like I think a cool prize would be, like maybe some nice headphones

1:03:15Richard Greaser at the end of the year so that you can listen to podcasts better. That's a really good price, Hale, I like that. Alrighty, well thank you for everybody who tuned into this episode. Thank you to everybody who boosted and we'll catch you on the next edition of the Bugle Weekly. Later.

1:03:37Pastor Jeffs I want to thank you for listening to what the Lord put on my heart and I want to thank the Bugle for allowing allowing me to share it. God wants you to experience NGU but it requires your faith. Jesus died on that cross not for you to struggle again from
