0:00Rod Palmer The following ad is presented by the Anti Toxicity League, working tirelessly for a safer and less toxic world.

0:08Janet Smith Shuster On 01/20/2025, Elon Musk turned my life upside down when he did the Nazi salute in support of Donald Trump. We had bought the Tesla because we wanted to virtue signal about the environment

0:20Fred Smith and so that all our friends knew that we were liberals, not so that they would think we are Nazis.

0:26Janet Smith Shuster If we had wanted to be Nazis, we would have bought a Volkswagen.

0:30Fred Smith Now our friends have turned their backs on us. I was driving my model three to Whole Foods yesterday, and my friend Clara flipped me off from her Nissan Leaf. The video cameras caught my husband's friend John rubbing his balls on the hood of the car.

0:46Janet Smith Shuster Even though we have a vote democrat sticker on the bumper, people still think we are Nazis. We have tried so hard to not be Nazis, accepting our white privilege, virtue signaling for every possible cause on the left. Yet no matter how hard we have tried, our friends have turned on us because of our car.

1:03Fred Smith It would seem that the only place we are accepted now is at Trump rallies and amongst the normal uneducated Americans who don't have time to focus on irrelevant social causes.

1:15Janet Smith Shuster We can't just change our friend group because of this. We don't wanna hang out with people without college degrees, those who aren't focused on equality, those who refuse to state their pronouns, and conspiracy theorists who don't care about climate change.

1:29Fred Smith That is why today, we are proud to say that we sold our Tesla because we aren't Nazis.

1:35Janet Smith Shuster This decision proves that we don't support unelected officials auditing other unelected officials in the government.

1:41Fred Smith It proves that we are willing to make brave decisions in the face of adversity in order to promote equity and inclusion in our communities, that we are willing to stand up against hate.

1:53Janet Smith Shuster With this move, I hope that our friends will forgive us, and the lady at Mimi's Cafe will stop spitting in my avocado toast.

2:00Fred Smith Doing the right thing means that sometimes you have to stand out from the crowd and make hard decisions. Stand up against hate. Stand up for the government officials who have been laundering our tax dollars for a better world. Stand up for climate change, for the right to take your children to drag Queen Story Hour. But more importantly, choose to be brave and to sell your Tesla.

2:26Janet Smith Shuster My name is Fred Smith.

2:28Fred Smith And my name is Janet Smith Shuster.

2:31Janet Smith Shuster And we are choosing to stand up against hate.

2:37Kailey Welch Hey, guys. Before I say what I'm gonna say, I wanna point out that that advertisement was trash. You aren't brave for making decisions based on peer pressure or what everyone around you thinks. People are brave when they choose to stand in the face of adversity for a cause they believe in. You are brave for facing danger, not for avoiding it altogether. Before we get into the episode, I owe you an explanation of where I've been. The last six months have been really tough. I ran off with a Monero guy because I thought I was in love. He got me pregnant and when he found out he ditched me. I stumbled around trying to make sense of my broken heart. I couldn't handle it and my drug use got out of control. A few months into the pregnancy, I went on an insane coke bender and miscarried. I was and am absolutely devastated. My heart is completely broken.

3:22Kailey Welch While that Monero guy is a piece of shit, I wanted to bring a child into this world To provide him a bright future where so many children in this world are brought up thinking they are worthless and that thinking is a sin. My drug use robbed that future for that child. Things have been really dark for me that's why I've chosen to come back to the bugle. I want to be alongside the people who are fighting a true and just fight. Podkomp needs to be destroyed and the world needs to know it's okay to use your brain. Rod and Dick are the real heroes facing adversity every day. I have learned that when you face hard times, it is vital to look for a sense of meaning and purpose. Today, I'm choosing to make my purpose to stand besides Rod and Dick in their mission to bring the world the best damn credential journalism has ever seen. My name is Kaylee Welch, and you are listening to the Bugle Weekly.

4:13Richard Greaser Welcome to this edition of the Bugle Weekly. This is your co host, Richard Grieser tuning in from the undisclosed Bugle Weekly podcast studio in the Bugle Weekly or the Bugle News newsroom in New York City. You're probably tuning into this episode today because you wanna know what's going on. You have Bitcoin podcasters tweeting on Twitter that they have no idea what's going on. There was a lot of discussion of the decoupling

4:44Richard Greaser on Friday. American HODL, Jason Williams, these people claiming to be OG Bitcoiners. They're they say that they're in it for a while. They have no idea what's going on. But lucky for you, you have tuned into a podcast ran by credentialed journalists who are on the beat

5:06Richard Greaser and do know what's going on. Rod, what's going on? What's the deal here? What's happening? Why is Bitcoin going down?

5:14Rod Palmer Well, the the tariffs really spooked the market this week. Donald Trump announced tariffs. He had a big tariff scoreboard. One of the, the charts on their website, and we published it, it showed the the tariff tax is now going to cost for Americans who wanna buy a cold card from Canada or,

5:37Rod Palmer a bit box from Switzerland, upwards of 31%, you know, tariff increases, which is tough. And the markets are crashing. MSTR in the tanks below 300.

5:49Rod Palmer MSTR people on Reddit, people on, Wall Street Bets. They're posting the suicide hotline. Wall Street traders are being they're taking pictures of them, you know, staring out their windows at their their bank, their investment bank in Wall Street, contemplating jumping out because their meme point went to zero.

6:12Rod Palmer And, boo, we thought Bitcoin was kind of immune to this. I mean, the the Nasdaq, all the meme coins, Ethereum, they were just crashing to zero, seemed like. And Bitcoin was kinda holding steady at 84 k. And people started tweeting the word decoupling. And it was it was spreading quickly around Bitcoin Twitter. It was in group chats. But, you know, everybody was trying to look for regulatory clarity on what this decoupling meant.

6:42Rod Palmer And there people didn't have enough time to, like, record Bitcoin podcast and explain it. So you're trying to tell your friends and family, like, it's just it it's okay. They Quincy coupling. You don't have to sell your shares of BlackRock's ETF. You don't have to sell everything on Swamp Bitcoin. You don't sell everything on Coinbase. It's fine. We're HODLing. It's decoupled. And they're but they're they were asking questions like, what how are you? What does this decoupling mean? And they went on Twitter and the next thing you see is like low IQ word of the day decoupling, my huddle madoo. And people are freaking out. The decoupling meme kind of fell apart and now Bitcoin has dropped below 80 ks.

7:22Rod Palmer And everyone's wondering when the market opens tomorrow, is Bitcoin going down to 58 ks? Is Bitcoin going to just have a huge crash? Is it the bear market here? And yellow had an emergency don't stop believing spaces about this. But the real problem is you don't know what the decoupling is. It's not a power enough meme because we haven't had enough Bitcoin podcasts explaining it. So people can't explain it to their friends and family who come to them. They know they listen to forty hours per week and they know they can explain this macro change in environments and they can't

7:55Rod Palmer and they're they're still waiting for regulatory clarity on what the decoupling is. So we just haven't had time and until we can explain this,

8:02Richard Greaser I think there's a chop ahead. It's all very interesting. Yeah. If you're listening to the podcast and you've been on the fence about starting a Bitcoin podcast, I'd highly encourage you to start one right now. There's never been a more important time in history to have a Bitcoin podcast. And

8:21Rod Palmer the the reason this this decoupling mean is so important because if it's true, then people can be safe to know that the bull market is still protected. Josh and Andel's prediction, we could still run the table. This decoupling sounds like a watershed moment that will help us get a God candle, an Omega candle. But

8:44Rod Palmer once it started to break down, I mean, people were nervous. A lot of us, especially Bitcoin podcasters, we promised our wives that we would get them breast implants, this bull market. And our wives, they don't watch the price every day. They just, we, they trust us because we told them to, because we listened to forty hours and they haven't seen the price and they're, but they're still expecting fake tits.

9:06Rod Palmer And people need dry powder to, to keep their wives happy because they to miss their wives not to go spend all their Bitcoin at Target because they and they promised them if they didn't, they would get fake boobs.

9:19Richard Greaser Well, they they want the fake boobs. Have you gotten your wife fake tits yet?

9:24Rod Palmer No, I I've been holding off. I was hoping that that my MSTR shares would be at like 700 now. That's when I told you that that was when I sat down with my financial advisor and my node and we planned to sell. And right now it's it's gonna really cost me a lot of sats and I'm gonna have I'm gonna I'm worried that I'm gonna have to smoke less cigarettes to keep my wife happy. And I just don't that's not the bull market I expected.

9:52Richard Greaser Totally. I'm I'm not gonna get my wife fake tits. It's just a personal personal preference. I'm more of an ass guy, absent face guy. You know what I mean?

10:03Rod Palmer Yeah. For some people, you know, the be on their money is good enough and the be on their wife's bra is good enough for them. But for some guys, they, they, they want a bigger size. And, you know, if you're gonna sacrifice, sell your chairs, you're gonna sacrifice and you're gonna save your time. You want maybe that time to have

10:23Richard Greaser a reality where your wife has bigger tits. Yeah. To to each their own. I mean, my my strategy, like, I think one of the things that's really important is finding creative ways for your wife not to get fat. And, unfortunately, I I just don't think the gym is an adequate enough solution. Right?

10:46Richard Greaser Right.

10:47Rod Palmer Like, there's Well, you're saying that, like, feeding feeding my wife, beef tallow, steak, and, grass fed butter for every meal, it's been doing great for my testosterone, but it's my wife's not been losing weight from that. I think maybe she's gained some weight. Interesting. Yeah. I mean, I I just think she tried

11:07Rod Palmer it. My wife, she came to me. She came to me the other day and she sent me tweets by an Andrick who was posting pictures of his muscles on Twitter and saying that he switched to an all carbohydrate diet. So my wife is like, now she's like, I want to, like, I miss eating cherry pies and donuts and banana bread and sweets and candy. Like, that was my diet. And you baked me eat steaks, but Mandrake is way more hot than you are. And all he does is eat carbohydrates.

11:39Richard Greaser So if like now I'm dealing with that bullshit. Well, I mean, the the solution, you know, for years, and there's so much ancient wisdom that unfortunately the the Fiat propagandists and controllers have tried to take out of the historical lexicon,

11:56Richard Greaser but the Native Americans had this down for years. Native Americans were able yeah. I mean, if you notice, you go to pretty much any reservation around the country, almost all of them, and they all sell cigarettes with no taxes. Native Americans understood the value of tobacco for thousands and thousands of years. Like, they they were the first

12:20Richard Greaser smokers in the world, and they didn't have fat women. And Right. You know, when when you look at the fiat economy, the the fiat environment, you see what's going on right now. They're trying to push Ozempic on everybody, right, while simultaneously

12:37Richard Greaser being and smoking everywhere you go. So you've got Prosempic. I mean, it's pretty incredible. Like, they they just created a market for themselves. So they came out with a body positive movement. Right? Make Americans fat.

12:54Richard Greaser Make them okay with being fat. Encourage them to be fat. Then they feel shitty. They get heart problems. They they develop diabetes. And so they're trying to find a solution to all of that,

13:08Richard Greaser and then they rush those and pick on the market. And all of this could have been avoided. All of this could have been avoided. I mean, like, what what do you think it is? Like, was the body body positive movement a strategy to to bolster the American economy by getting people to spend a bunch of money at McDonald's.

13:28Kailey Welch We're going to take a short break to hear from Maggie Morris who is issuing a retraction.

13:35Maggie Morris Hi. This is Maggie Morris. I would like to fully retract the statement I posted to Twitter, putting in question the results of the Maxi Madness polling and the professionalism of the Beagle News editorial team. After watching a statistical analysis of an hour by hour replay of the polling and being exposed information I wasn't previously aware of, I now see I was completely mistaken and that the results were fully organic. I would like to thank Richard Grieser and the BugleFest board for renewing my contract with Bugle News. Richard Grieser and Rod Palmer are stand up journalists and altogether well rounded people, and me implying otherwise is fully due to my own personal issues. I'm very excited for q two with the vehicle news and the high quality reporting in journalism we will be producing. I would like to publicly apologize for the confusion and concern my statements have caused and to assure you this will not happen again.

14:26Rod Palmer I think I think that there's a lot of narratives and a lot of explanations. But when I look at the data, what I I I use my credentials and I crunch the data before me. And a lot of Bitcoiners out there are low interest rate, nothing stops this train, you know, that's kind of their philosophy. But some people mostly cross the line where it's like Dave, they wish for low interest rates instead of they expect low interest rates, but it seems clear by now that low interest rates

14:59Rod Palmer lead to overweight wives. The longer we have, you know, near zero interest rates or very low interest rates, the, the bigger our wives get, the fatter they get, the fatter we get, the lower our testosterone goes. And I think that we just have to accept that, if, if we are expecting low interest rates, we're gonna have to be working harder, not, you know, it's not going to be easier to try to stay based and fit and not have fat lives.

15:28Rod Palmer We're going to have to endure and smoke cigarettes. And maybe that's why the Native Americans, they drew the line at taxing their cigarettes. And they endured so much hardship and so much oppression from the government

15:45Rod Palmer because they refused to compromise on taxing cigarettes and taxing tobacco. You can't tax access to God's creation.

15:56Richard Greaser God wants us to smoke cigarettes. He gave us tobacco. And it's just a line that the native Americans were not willing to cross. Yeah. Toronto, crazy horse, you know, all of these historical figures that are badass Native Americans, they they're looking down on on today's natives and and they're proud. They're proud that they're they're standing the ground and not allowing for taxes on cigarettes.

16:21Rod Palmer That's for sure. It was all it's it's worth it to preserve

16:25Richard Greaser to preserve that that identity and that culture. Yeah. Well, if if you're struggling to understand what's going on in the American or global economy right now, you probably haven't read Atlas Shrugged recently.

16:39Rod Palmer Boom. Boom. Yeah. And the the idea if you if your time preference is low enough, it's like none of this is really shocking you. It may it may not be what you've prepared for, or hoped for, most opt optimistic, but it, you know, it doesn't surprise you either. And this is this is why Bitcoin podcasts are so important.

17:03Rod Palmer Like, this is why we are encouraging you to start one now because when you don't have time to look at the price, the best thing to do is listen to a Bitcoin podcast. Well, yeah.

17:15Richard Greaser You have the opportunity to tell your friends and family about what's actually happening. Like, the the choices are they can either get their opinions and and have the New York Times do the thinking for them or you can do the thinking for them. But unless you're doing a podcast, there's no way for you to adequately communicate what's happening in the world to them.

17:40Richard Greaser They're not gonna listen to Lynn Alden. You know what I mean? But they might listen to you talk about what Lynn Alden was talking about.

17:47Rod Palmer Man, this is, this is this is official breaking news. Dennis Porter has called it for the decoupling. He says, the decoupling was fun while it lasted. So sounds like the decoupling is finally dead. That narrative is dead, and we may be going lower. Yeah. We'll have to see. I mean, I I I would bring this back to the listener.

18:12Richard Greaser You know, there there are some people that are kinda like they're they're Bitcoin hipsters in the sense like they they pretend that when the price goes down that it doesn't bother them, that it actually makes them happy. Right? It's it's just all a bunch of, bravado, in my opinion. You know, they're upset about the price going down just like you and me are, and everybody else. But the responsibility for the price going up, it it doesn't fall on David Bailey. It doesn't fall on Donald Trump. It falls on every one of us

18:44Richard Greaser to start our own Bitcoin podcast. Because once again, your friends and family are not gonna learn about this unless you're podcasting about it. They're not gonna go and listen to what Bitcoin did. They're not gonna listen to TFTC. They're gonna go to TFTC and they're gonna say, wow, Marty's a weirdo that believes there's nanoparticles on the food or something like that. And then they're not gonna listen to it. They're gonna listen to RHR, and then they're gonna see that Matt's a gay bear and and kinda grumpy, and and they're not gonna be interested in it anymore. Right?

19:18Richard Greaser They need you to be the ambassador for them into Bitcoin. And if you really wanna do it in a like, I mean, you can call your friends and family and have conversations to the with them on the phone, but it's essentially just doing a Bitcoin podcast where only the NSA

19:36Rod Palmer This is is it? This is the here's the phenomena. In case you in case you may be too close to this and you can't you can't infer it now. But Bitcoin podcasts, especially the new ones, what they do is they mostly reference other Bitcoin podcasts, other Bitcoin podcasters, especially,

19:59Rod Palmer Bitcoin podcasters that have a bigger name recognition that more more people will have likely had heard of and agreed with if they're listening to their Bitcoin podcast. And they've referenced their ideas and they've explained to them what Matt Odell thinks about this or they explain to them what when Alden's macro analysis is for the quarter two of two thousand twenty five. And we would explain that to our if we didn't have a podcast, we'd explain that to our friends and family. We would tell

20:29Rod Palmer our, you know, our uncle to listen to this Linole in an interview, or we tell our dad to listen to, you know, this episode of Preston Pish on Bitcoin fundamentals. But they didn't listen to us. They didn't listen. They didn't take our recommendations. But if we start our own podcast, they'll have to listen to it. Our wives will have to listen to it. Our moms will have to listen to it. Our neighbors will have to listen to it. And then when they listen to our Bitcoin podcast, we can play clips from Rabbit Hole Recap, from The Bitcoin Standard,

20:59Rod Palmer from Robert Breedlove's Sailor Series, and they will have to listen to it. Well, not only that, you've got a you've got a back catalog

21:09Richard Greaser of being right. So instead of having to go and reference a a conversation that they're not gonna even remember having as a I told you so. You can just point back into one of your podcasts and say, hey. On 03/06/2025,

21:28Richard Greaser you know, I told you so. Listen to this podcast episode.

21:32Rod Palmer Exactly. So this is the power of podcast because when you are arguing with your uncle on Thanksgiving and you are telling him about the laws of thermodynamics and why nothing stops this train and why, like, privacy is so critical to the adoption and the scaling of layer one. He's not gonna listen to a word you say, he's gonna, he's gonna tune that out. But when you end up being bright, two or three or four or five years later,

21:60Rod Palmer you show up to Thanksgiving and you have a time stamped proof of of being right, a time stamped proof of being the smartest person in your family. And they have to they've listened to that podcast and they, wow, goddamn. The ETFs did change the dynamics of the layer one supply, but that does not mean that we should accept a shit coin fork. We just have to build, you know, like, I was right about that. That didn't mean there wasn't five that was gonna tank Bitcoin, and they can't.

22:30Rod Palmer You that you can play it right in their faces, and there's nothing they could do about it. Yeah. It it it's essentially just creating,

22:37Richard Greaser a series of mic drops for yourself. And, you know, after they see you're right for a while and they see everybody else that they listen to is wrong, at a certain point, they're gonna be like, holy shit. Like, we need to, like, use this podcast that whoever whichever family member did. We need to start adding it into our homeschool curriculum.

23:00Richard Greaser And then you start orange pilling, future generations.

23:05Rod Palmer When your brother-in-law, you know, dogs on you because Bitcoin, you know, the decoupling narrative did not hold and Bitcoin dropped back into the seventies, well, you can go back in the group family group chat and you can find a time where he was totally wrong and had totally way too high of a time preference to be commenting on Bitcoin,

23:28Rod Palmer much less, you know, economics. You can find that tweet and you can, you can reply to it with your fountain clip of you basically dunking the shit off of your brother-in-law. And you can share that in the group chat and everybody will like it and you will be the hero of the group chat for a while. And then nobody will believe your brother-in-law. I mean, these people deserve to be dunked on and you owe it to yourself

23:52Richard Greaser to dunk on them. Exactly.

23:54Rod Palmer Exactly. Yeah. I mean, that is how you that's how you are to spell your friends and family. It is by keeping score and never letting them,

24:02Richard Greaser forget that they were wrong about Bitcoin and you were right. Yeah. I mean, they they deserve to be on it. Like, they're deserve to have accountability in their lives. Like, this is one of the problems is all the all these idiots in our society have no accountability for when they're wrong. They just say things

24:22Richard Greaser Like like, when I was out there trying to tell people that we're getting COVID and getting the vaccine, that cigarettes cured COVID, they all thought it was insane. And it turns out that it's true. Cigarettes cure COVID. They're they're, like, pretend like we never had the conversation and that I never said that instead of taking accountability for it. And they I've been dunking on them heart. I've been dunking on them heart. They're they're all running around with autoimmune diseases, upset, blaming something else,

24:55Richard Greaser besides the vaccines. And they could have avoid avoided that entirely by just fucking smoking cigarettes. And, like, they deserve to be dunked on because they they made bad decisions. Like, this is this is part of, you know, allowing the free market like, what what we're doing essentially is we're embracing the free market of memes. Right? There's free market

25:19Richard Greaser economics where where people suffer consequences for their bad behaviors and actions. There's there's free market meaning, which means that like, this is one of the issues with Podkomp, for example. Podkoff has a very, like, stringent view of what's appropriate and what's not appropriate to say on podcasts. They're very anti free market when it comes to memes. They tell you what you can and can't say. They they have

25:46Richard Greaser both said and unsaid rules on the topics. They just eviscerate any sort of free market Austrian, economic theories on the free market of meaning. And it's a real shame

26:02Richard Greaser because we need we need that this free market of ideas in order for people to come to any sort of consensus and, like, part of consensus forming is through absolute dunking on people. Like, you wanna fucking teabag these guys

26:19Richard Greaser when you're jumping through the air and slamming Right. When you

26:22Rod Palmer when you're a noob and you're new to Bitcoin and you've just started listening to Bitcoin podcasts, the only way that you can even begin to discern which idea or which, you know, way of using Bitcoin is the best is by whose memes are dunking on whose. That's all you know. It's like, well, this meme is constantly ratioing this person and their stupid names, their PodConf memes, so they must be wrong. I'm gonna go be non compliant for a little while until I can figure it out.

26:55Rod Palmer So you have to have that competition. Otherwise, it's it distorts value in ideas around Bitcoin because it's being pumped up by Tether. I mean, you want you want cousin Billy

27:08Richard Greaser to feel really shitty, like, because this is what cousin Billy is gonna do. Right? He's gonna look at everybody, like, the the price starts running. He starts to get interested in in Bitcoin once that happens. And then he's gonna quickly fall into if or XRP. Right?

27:26Richard Greaser Cousin Billy is gonna be getting into XRP, and he's gonna ask you about XRP. He's been into Bitcoin for, like, five minutes. He hasn't he's barely listened to any Bitcoin podcast. He probably hasn't listened to yours yours yet. And he's gonna be like, I wanna get into XRP because of x y z, and this is what this influencer said and, you know, the banks and, you know, whatever, cross border payments.

27:51Richard Greaser You're gonna be all excited about XRPs and all the buzzwords that we've all heard for years, and then he's gonna lose all his money on it. And you want to fucking dunk the shit out of him. Right? You wanna have done a three hour podcast on why XRP is a scam, why they don't have the blockchain history and have all the missing blocks. You wanna be able to refer back to that episode after he's lost all his life savings and just make him feel like a complete piece of shit,

28:21Richard Greaser the complete piece of shit that he is. Because he deserves he deserves the accountability, not just for, like, his wife divorcing him because he lost all of his money, but because you told him so. You need to shove it in his face. And in that way, you like, when you dunk that hard on people, what they're gonna do after that is they're gonna make sure to never miss one of your podcast episodes ever again.

28:46Rod Palmer Right. Wait. Think about it. Like, on rock bottom, they're feeling the most miserable. You've dunked on them completely. They they just hit their heads hit the floor. And then as soon as they emerge to apologize and admit they did something, boom, they get quote tweeted by Costa Tickwhip, and now they're the reach out of the day. Somebody hits that level.

29:09Rod Palmer They're gonna listen to your your Bitcoin podcast forty hours per week. They're not gonna miss an episode, and they're gonna listen to all the podcasts you recommend on your on your podcast as well. They're gonna listen to forty hours of fucking math homework per week with fundamentals

29:22Richard Greaser and plug chain radio if they ever figure out Nostra. I mean, you wanna talk about changing society. You have to fucking don't. You have to be ruthless in your memeing. You you have to be willing to just, like, post up on a five year old and just dunk on them.

29:40Rod Palmer Yeah. You shouldn't be in the marketplace, the free meme exchange. If you're not trying to nobody let me rephrase that. Nobody is participating in the free exchange of memes without trying to influence the narrative.

29:58Rod Palmer So you should consider, you should consider that. And there's no amount of like two, like you said, being too ruthless, being too adversarial because every, every person is trying to compete with you with their memes, no matter how nice they try to come across.

30:15Richard Greaser Mhmm. Yeah. I mean, you you have to know who you are in this world and in this economy. Right? As a 40 per hour Bitcoin podcast listener, you're like LeBron James or Michael Jordan playing against a bunch of eight year old kids on nine foot or sorry, eight foot basketball hoops. Like, you got the you got the short hoops. You can already dunk the shit out of a basketball on a real hoop, But now you're playing against midgets that, you know, might be distracted by, you know, a butterfly or, you know, something something random. Right. They're like

30:52Richard Greaser and your role is to fucking put them into place because these eight year olds don't realize that they're eight year olds. They don't realize how undeveloped. They think that they're sentient beings. They think that they're, actual adults, and they're not because they don't fucking listen to BigQuery Podcast. They have no idea what's going on in the world whatsoever

31:15Richard Greaser and it's your role to show them that. So, hey, you're fucking retard because you don't listen to forty hours per week.

31:23Rod Palmer And it's for their own good. It's for their own good because the CIA is creating these cute, childlike, innocent, happy memes like Dogecoin. And they're using things like Dogecoin to attract children

31:38Rod Palmer and attract childlike, you know, people of trust. And they think, well, how could this meme, how could this idea ever cost me money? How could it ever be bad for my finances? It's so cute, and it's just so innocent. And then it ends up rug pulling people and it's like it's like the wolf in sheep's clothing. And if you're not able to to be on guard for being lured in by memes that will trick you and then dunk on you super hard or get you dunked on super hard later, you're just not ready for you're just not ready for combat in this, you know, hyperbaconization.

32:14Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, we need to we need to get rid of this the sense of inclusivity and there's all this discussion, like, the boomers call the millennial snowflakes.

32:27Richard Greaser I think the millennials are starting to get fed up with the Zoomers. The Zoomers are pretty fucking annoying. You know what I mean? They're they're hard to put up with.

32:36Rod Palmer But, The broccoli haircuts just drive a lot of people crazy. There's no doubt about that. I mean, people there is like, with they we covered this, but with Doge and big balls, sometimes you need some really just obnoxious broccoli hair cut of Zimmer to do your dirty work for you because they just do not, they've listened to so many right wing podcasts, they just do not care

32:59Rod Palmer about being called a Nazi. It just doesn't affect them. And, but as a result, they're cocky and you got we gotta use them when it but Jesus Christ, we don't want those people to take over. We don't want to be led by broccoli hair coated Zimmers.

33:13Richard Greaser Well, if you there's a bunch of people like, the New York Times is in the shamble right now trying to explain after for years of them saying that The US economy is fine, why we are looking to be heading into a recession.

33:32Richard Greaser And if you want a clear understanding of why we're going into recession, it's because all these fucking Zoomers with their broccoli haircuts.

33:39Rod Palmer I mean, listen. Nobody knows this more or nobody knows this least but is trying harder is like the New York times and that kid from the Florida shooting who's really skinny, David Hogg, who now leads, he's trying to recruit young broccoli haircuted zoomers to the democratic party.

33:60Rod Palmer And it's just not working because right now, like NPR, the New York times is still like, no, can you imagine like as a broccoli hair coated Zoomer reading a New York headlines story lecturing them? Can you imagine, like, how hard they would laugh at that? Like, it doesn't affect them. And, like, having David Hogg on podcast

34:22Rod Palmer tell broccoli hair coated zeumers, why it's misogynist to, you know, big chicks are hot until we can't call them on fucking burchettes. I mean, nobody's gonna ever listen to you. You're just so out of touch. And nobody but they don't listen to anybody. They don't even listen to they wouldn't do meme coins. You try to orange fill your broccoli or a tiny zoomer sign, doesn't work. Nobody can get their attention.

34:46Richard Greaser Yeah. This is the problem with with the Zoomers in general is they just do they don't have respect for credentials, and it's a problem. The the like, I can understand the lack of, respect for authority, and I can sympathize that I think all of us can, when it comes to Bitcoin. But there there still is a place for credentials in this world.

35:08Rod Palmer That's the they don't they don't respect the longest chain. They don't respect

35:14Richard Greaser the importance of hard work. Like, these are the types of people that are talking about forking maxi madness or people with broccoli haircuts.

35:24Rod Palmer Right. That's nobody's, nobody's gonna follow that but, you know, it they're gonna be an exceptionally annoying

35:32Richard Greaser fucking troll, I think, to deal with. Yeah. And and the way you deal with them is just by dunking on them. Just relentlessly.

35:40Rod Palmer Just don't be, yeah. Don't be afraid to bitch slap a broccoli haircut and neem. Well, one of the topics I think we wanna talk about today is,

35:48Richard Greaser the tariff situation. So, hardware wallets just got a lot more expensive. Is that gonna be a problem for people self custodying their funds? That depends. To be something that's a transitory issue. We we're using Bitcoin as a as a unit of account, as a store value. Are the tariffs gonna impact hardware

36:10Richard Greaser wallet purchasers? Are they gonna start turning to to Office Depot paper as an alternative?

36:16Rod Palmer What do you think? Some people some people, they have listened to forty hours per week. And for whatever reason, maybe just the the algorithm that they like, they only think that you can cold storage Bitcoin with a a Blockstream jade or cold cart. They don't think that any, like they heard that everything else is, you know, a scam, but that's gonna be 25% more expensive. They don't understand that you can have a you can make your own seed signer. You could

36:43Rod Palmer you could buy a BICKEY, you could use a paper wallet, you could generate your own entropy, create your own signing device. They just don't know the, the alternatives. So a lot of people are gonna have to, watch a lot more tutorials. I think BTC Sessions is going to need to put a lot more tutorials out there that are not cold card. Are there gonna be tariffs on his tutorials? Depends. I saw, I saw Zeus, the, non custodial Bitcoin lightning wallet. They posted there's no

37:12Rod Palmer tariffs on Lightning channels, which is good news. But I did, you know, I couldn't help but comment and quote tweet that if Bitcoin if the Lightning Network really worked, do you think we'd be so lucky? If the Lightning Network actually worked, do you think we would've avoided tariffs like this? So sometimes it's good to, it's good to appreciate the bad user experience because bad user experience helps you avoid tariffs. That reminded me, speaking of bad user

37:41Richard Greaser experience, you've never used Monero,

37:44Rod Palmer have you? I've I've I've received it, but I've never spent it. I never mind it. I guess I'm a Monero HODLer, which is the worst kind of Monero person to be. True.

37:58Richard Greaser One one of the key things that I I've seen about Monero, which I I kinda like from a bad user experience standpoint. At least the only wallet I've ever used, Ferminero's Cake Wallet. But, every time you log in to check your balance, it has to sync for a few minutes, unlike a Bitcoin wallet. And I don't know I'm not running my own Monero node, so I'm not sure about the mechanics there. Maybe it's different if you're running your own node, but I I I thought that was pretty interesting. Like, okay.

38:30Richard Greaser You know, I open my wallet. I have to wait, like, five minutes to see my balance, and then it takes a while. So, you know, like, if you're going like, one of the challenges, like, when you're going to these non KYC peer to peer exchanges, you're you're talking to your local cigarette dealer, a lot of times they just want the transaction to go fast. You know what I mean? You go in there with Bitcoin, you do a lightning transaction, settles immediately, they get out of there. You do a Bitcoin transaction,

38:60Richard Greaser you you see a brought they see a broadcast into the blockchain. They don't they don't wait for three confirmations or whatever. They just book it. They're like, okay. That's good enough. I I chose to see it get there. You you go in with your Monero wallet. You have to wait, like, up to potentially five minutes depending on how recently you've checked your balance. Maybe it's been a week or two. And that forces you forces them to sit there and wait for you to be able to send the transaction so you can actually have a conversation with them, which is kind of a nice thing to do. Yeah. And it's almost like the perfect amount of time. It's enough time to smoke a cigarette with them.

39:37Rod Palmer Before you do a transaction with a merchant, grocer, a mechanic, a vendor, a consultant, should you at least spend enough time getting to know them that you could smoke a cigarette with them? I don't know. I think that's like,

39:54Rod Palmer maybe built into the,

39:57Richard Greaser this is built into it somehow. Yeah. I mean, this is how our society used to be. People used to congregate outside the bars, smoke cigarettes together, talk to each other.

40:07Rod Palmer Wait for their balance to be settled, you know, show up on their wallets. Yeah. I'm trying to sync my Monero wallet. And it so it you know, it's it's it's another feature that I think maybe goes unappreciated is sometimes you pull out your lighting wallet to make a payment or your, you know, Guillermo wallet, whatever. And you haven't had a time to look at the price and maybe you don't know that the price dropped 6% that day. Day. Maybe you turned off push notifications

40:33Rod Palmer from River, because, you know, you're just like, you know, like, I'm just not gonna check price. And then you open your wallet and you see, oh, shit. I thought I had a 100 worth of Bitcoin, but I only have 88. I can't buy, you know, this Podkon t shirt that I wanted. That's a $100 who would just spend that much anyway? But, you just see time when the Monero is loading. So you check the price, so you don't get shocked or surprised and commit to buying something before you even know if you'll have enough USDT.

41:03Richard Greaser Totally. So I've noticed with a bunch of people tweeting about the price this week, I I don't know why I do not know why people have not started pricing in USDT yet.

41:14Rod Palmer What do you think the holdup is on that? It's hard to say. I mean, you got Paulo tweeting from Wall Street, kind of almost like the conquering fucking hero as the other old Wall Street bankers were threatening to jump out of their buildings because the dollar's getting so strong. Therefore, Tether is getting so strong. And you know, it's coming to lightning network. It's it's everywhere. I guess people are just,

41:42Richard Greaser they just, they're scared to change. It I mean, it sounds like, well, they're gonna have to change here pretty soon because like you said, Tether's coming to lightning. It sounds like it's gonna come pretty fast. I I don't think a lot of people are really expecting the the speed of this transition. I think the Tron blockchain is gonna be absolutely devastated. I think Justin Sun is just gonna be really, really, really sad when people stop using Tron

42:10Rod Palmer to use Tether. Yeah. I mean, that's this is just a broader a broader narrative here. It's like American dominance, as a result of these tariffs is going to come at the cost at the expense of China. It's going to come at the expense of, Chinese,

42:29Rod Palmer blockchains like Tron. It's gonna come at the expense of Russian blockchains like Ethereum. It's not good for any of them. Maybe the CIA's, blockchain, Solana, will be okay, but that's

42:40Richard Greaser and Monero, but that's it. Who's Masad's blockchain? I think that was Zcash. Right?

42:46Rod Palmer Like, I really That's what people speculated. People were thinking that it was Zcash, but, I think there's still I think there's not no consensus. I believe there's a few others that they speculate on. It seems like every intelligence agency has their own blockchain,

42:60Richard Greaser or at least a few.

43:02Rod Palmer Yeah. Well, it's crazy. The United States was able to 51% and take over Chinese intelligence blockchain, BNB,

43:12Rod Palmer But The United States now controls it, and you have to spend you can only buy stuff in USDC

43:18Richard Greaser now that they're so cucked. I didn't even know that. It was crazy. Well, I hope everybody got a better understanding of what was going on. I think you did. This is why you come to the show. You listen to to 40 of Bitcoin podcast just as a a week as a primer for this show. This is the podcast for the forty hour per week listener. But, yeah, it's probably a good time to I mean, you got any more thoughts before we start to transition into the fountain boost, Rod? No. I think the right now

43:50Rod Palmer is the time to zoom out, lower your time preference, and either start listening to a Bitcoin podcast or start listening to forty hours per week

43:59Richard Greaser because that's where the signal's gonna be. And right now, it's a coupling meme and all these other memes are just not bullish enough. Totally. Well, I there's a handful of things I wanna talk about before we get into the fountain booth. So right now, you and I are one and two on Wave Lake, which is pretty cool.

44:15Rod Palmer My song, Oh, yeah.

44:17Richard Greaser My song, Ungovertable Misfit, is at number one currently. I'm pretty proud of that song. Oh, I should have it on Spotify and Apple Music and all the other gay music apps here pretty soon for you guys. Also working with some people trying to get this song. But, yeah, I mean, the the song was inspired by our good friends at Uncoverable Misfits

44:43Richard Greaser who are really walking the walk and and being serious disruptors and are very anti pod proud members of the intellectual Silk Road. So it was definitely I would dedicate that song to them. But if you could go over to Wave Lake and boost it, that would make me feel pretty good. One thing I did wanna announce too,

45:06Richard Greaser but before I ask you about your song, talk about it a little bit. I start I created an Instagram account last week. So go over to Instagram, look for Richard Greaser. I've got, like, three followers. I do have one of the hot Bitcoin women following me out of the

45:25Richard Greaser three to five followers that I have. I I'm pretty sure Dollar 2 are Boss, but, Kid Sats is following me. That's a pretty,

45:35Rod Palmer pretty good ego boost. Hell, yeah. She's hot.

45:39Richard Greaser Definitely hot. But yeah. Yeah. Let's hear about your song. What do you got going on with this song? Well, the one that's on Wave Lake is actually,

45:50Rod Palmer it's not the really the one that's kind of the base hit right now. So but it's not it's on Wave Lake. If you look it up, Rod Palmer's podcast, listening with, apostrophe at the after the end instead of the g.

46:06Rod Palmer That's the big hit right now. I think if you listen to that one, Ungovernmental Misfits song, they're both pretty pretty, like, outlaw country inspired. I think, the Bitcoin podcast, The Apple of the World Nashville is it's having a cultural impact

46:25Richard Greaser on on Bitcoin music. It's looking like your song's titled on Wave Like Precious Time.

46:30Rod Palmer Yeah. That's a different song. It's not as good. That was it's kinda like the, the beta version and the, podcast listen is like the prototype. Okay.

46:42Richard Greaser Well, I guess I haven't heard podcast listening yet. I'll have to take a listen to that.

46:47Rod Palmer That one's, that one's shared on the video on the, Google. Yeah.

46:55Richard Greaser Oh, yeah. I have heard that one then. That is the one I would listen to. I've just been, confused because they're publishing different ones. Alright. Well, one one of the things I've been or has been interested in here recently

47:09Richard Greaser is it seems like our our clothing's taken off right now. One of the one of the things that's also happening kind of, unfortunately,

47:23Richard Greaser coinciding with our our clothing taken off is Podkoff's clothing is taken off as well. I would encourage everybody listening to this show to go over to orangelabel.co

47:38Richard Greaser and consider purchasing something from our clothing line. So my clothing line's the comply line. I'm working on another one. Rod's clothing line is the 40 HPW clothing line. My favorite shirt on that is the intellectual silk road

47:58Richard Greaser forty hours per Bitcoin or a Bitcoin podcast per week shirt. I think it's really got a nice aesthetic to it. My favorite shirt that I own currently, I would encourage people to go over and check that out. Don't don't let Podkoff sell more shirts than us. They they've got the influencers on their side. They got Rob Hamilton, repping his shirt. I I heard that Shinobi.

48:23Richard Greaser Shinobi. I heard Beckett. Fucking Opti. He doesn't he doesn't like Linkin Park and and wears Podkoff gear. What a loser.

48:31Rod Palmer The freaking P. O. E. Lanes, Ben Justman. Wait, Podkoff got him too. I haven't seen that yet. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Ben Justman's sporting the Podkoff gear now. Oh, no.

48:41Richard Greaser Guys, we cannot let them sell more shirts than us. We We can't let Creed wear PodComp. We can't let PodComp have Creed. This is this is rough. Buy buy the 40 HPW line, buy the comply line, wrap it, post it post it on Noster, post it on Twitter, do a big middle finger to Podkoff, tell them that you're rejecting them.

49:06Richard Greaser We we need to we need to correct course right now. Podkoff has been selling a lot of clothing, so we got we gotta get back on track. Podkoff's trying to co opt, our 40 or your 40 HPW line. I don't know if you saw that, but they're using your your logo on some shit. PodCon also has this really cool suit coiners line,

49:30Rod Palmer which Yeah. The suit coiners is cool. It's kinda fucked up that they stole my forty hours per week, but the in held, he is PodConf, so he probably told them to do it.

49:40Richard Greaser I I need to hurry up and and release this, this revolution won't have good UX line probably here pretty quick because, PodCon has some pretty good merch on their website. It's it's kinda problematic.

49:55Rod Palmer Yeah.

49:57Timmy Tether Timmy Tether here. Are you ready to unleash your thermodynamically sound style? Then check out the Bugle's forty hours per week collection available exclusively at OrangeLabel. By wearing forty hours per week tees, you're making a statement. You're letting people know that you don't have time to waste.

50:46Timmy Tether Bitcoin. Or if you prefer Fiat, we accept that too. Head on over to orangelabel.co and look for the 40 h p w tag for the latest threads from the bugle.

51:03Richard Greaser Alright. With that, let's get into the final boost. The, first boost.

51:09Rod Palmer And this is on the episode of, apologizing to absolutely nobody. So we're recapping Maxi Madness, obviously. And we would we'll not go we don't need to beat a dead horse. We know how that but fundamentals, honestly, go and listen to his, his podcast episode,

51:29Rod Palmer latest one, back on chain. Him and, him and his they break down Maxi Madness, the, origin of the bugle,

51:40Rod Palmer how Rod Hamilton told them about that we have the best Bitcoin podcast in the space and how they agree. And, and it just explained Maxi Madness and the absurdity of it so well. So if you care, if you still wanna hear about Maxi Madness, that's the only place where you're gonna get some signal is back on chain. But fundamentals boost this 21,000 sassy. So I've loved the glorious return of the best theme song in the business. I'm

52:09Richard Greaser I'm actually blanking on what's he's talking about. I believe he's talking I used under the chemtrails Skies.

52:15Rod Palmer Oh, okay. That's right. That's right. Hell, yeah. That is a classic.

52:20Richard Greaser That is Fundamental's favorite song. Yeah. I really enjoyed, the latest episode of of the fish podcast. I've I was listening to I mean, it inspired me to listen to a bunch of fish last week. And I'm not typically into jam rock, but, you know, sometimes,

52:42Richard Greaser somebody's enthusiasm on a topic is so contagious that it makes you just enjoy it a little bit more. And so listening to their podcast really opened my eyes up to enjoying the music a bit. I I was enjoying listening to Fish. I I can't say really say I like the Grateful Dead very much, but I I did appreciate Fish.

53:04Richard Greaser Maybe maybe I'd be open to it if they did a Grateful Dead podcast. But, yeah, they did a pretty good recap of Maxi Madness towards the end of the episode. The rest of the episode was about fish,

53:15Rod Palmer and I I did enjoy it. Yeah. That's a good point. And that the egos this goes with Bitcoin as well. Fish and Bitcoin, are ubiquitous now throughout the culture if you know where to look. But the only way either Bitcoin or fish are gonna pick up new fans at this point is if somebody finds a good podcast. So if you have a good fish podcast, a good Bitcoin podcast, or a good fish and Bitcoin podcast, that's probably gonna be the best way to reach new Cypherpunks

53:43Richard Greaser is through the through podcasts. And and that's a really good tactic. If you're, the type of person that feels a little bit insecure about starting another Bitcoin podcast and you wanna differentiate yourself from everybody else in some way, instead of just being like everybody else and repeating what Michael Saylor and Lynn Alden said, you could start a podcast on a different subtopic. Like, you could do a Bitcoin and fish podcast. I I wouldn't say do that because fundamentals is already doing that, but you could do a Bitcoin in

54:15Rod Palmer Into that podcast. Bitcoin and creed, Bitcoin and Bob Dylan, Bitcoin and widespread panic, Bitcoin and the spice girls, anything there's no is there's you get all of the top A list

54:32Richard Greaser bands if you start a podcast about them with Bitcoin now. Yeah. We could we could hear, Bitcoin and Taylor Swift podcast. I've been trying to talk Grant Cardone into starting a Bitcoin and Scientology podcast. I think that would be pretty interesting. We can see a Bitcoin and Mormon podcast. I there's so many different topics that you can relate to Bitcoin in one way or another. And, you know, this is the great thing.

54:57Richard Greaser Like, Bitcoin podcasts are for everybody. You know what I mean? Yeah.

55:02Rod Palmer They're exactly. Bitcoin podcast and, you know, Roth music, Bitcoin podcast and jazz, Bitcoin podcast and the Cosby Show, Bitcoin podcast and Disney. This is just it's you just have to be a little bit creative. I would like to hear a Bitcoin podcast for emos. Yeah. Bitcoin is for emos. That Opti was talking shit

55:26Rod Palmer about Lincoln Park and Lincoln Park rules. The guy that, he's over at ungovernable. He's talking shit about Lincoln Park, the band, and that obviously we like Lincoln Park at the bugle. And he said it was for, for emo, emo girls. Well, Bitcoin is for emo girls.

55:44Richard Greaser And it's a it's it sucks that I have to remind Opti of that. Well, you know, people like Opti, they like to gatekeep. It's it's just at the end of the day. Opti Opti's trying to gatekeep and keep the emo girls out of Bitcoin. Bitcoin's for everybody, Optimus, even the emo girls. So get over it. Yeah. Anyways, thank you for the boost fundamentals. Our next boost is from our good friend, late stage HODL, one of the most consistent boosters of the show. The Boogie Woogie Bugle Boys of company b. What does that mean? You got any takes on that? Is there some cryptic language happening in this,

56:24Richard Greaser boost,

56:25Rod Palmer Rob? No. No. I don't know. It's, I mean, company b. That's obviously a, a CIA reference, and it's also the, like, the in the style of, like, the strategy b. So micro strategy. The boogie woogie. I think that might have something to do with CIA. So he is probably, I think he's calling us,

56:46Rod Palmer in a joking manner. I think he's teasing us, calling us feds. Interesting. We'll we'll have late stage model elaborate on that. But before I ask, I think that, if nobody thinks you're a fad, I think that that's probably not good for you. I think it's you want to keep people guessing because people, you know, if they think you're a fed, maybe that might make a lot of people respect you more.

57:10Rod Palmer Maybe not in a good way, but in a way that they are gonna be less likely to,

57:15Richard Greaser try to steal your Bitcoin or dunk on you in memes. If you're if they don't think you're fed, you're not trying hard enough. That's what I've learned. Right. There you go.

57:24Rod Palmer Exactly. So that's increasing. The next one. So thank you, late stage huddle. One of our, maybe he likes feds. He because he boosts us a lot. Maybe that that doesn't count as paying your taxes. Just so you know, you can't write that off on your tax return next week. But, thank you for the boost. The next one's from Sean,

57:45Rod Palmer and he visited his 5,000 sats. And Sean said, the Ice Raid news isn't surprising given the bugle's coverage of Solana on chain assassin markets last year. Yeah. And I I totally agree with that. I I appreciate when a listener,

58:02Rod Palmer comes on and points to time stamps essentially so we can dunk on our critics. So thank you for bringing out that opportunity, Sean. We predicted that, that that that ice in immigration was gonna have to get more aggressive on the Solana assassination

58:21Rod Palmer meme coin on these assassination markets, and they're cracking down on Solana no less. So another big, prediction. Correct. So thanks for the alley oop, Sean. Letting us dunk that one. Yeah. This this phenomenon

58:36Richard Greaser of tokenizing snitching is, is very interesting. It seems like Laura Loomer I have trouble complimenting people that aren't Bitcoin podcasters. Like, Laura Loomer was a person that I complimented. I said she was one of the good Jews. And then all of a sudden, she starts

58:57Richard Greaser promoting snitching on the blockchain. And I just I I don't know. Sad to see sad to see how she's in the same lane as Pleather. Well, I think Pleather would be Pleather believes in snitching just for the sake of snitching. Right? He doesn't Yeah. He he's a purist. Mhmm. He's not an Yeah. Well

59:18Rod Palmer tokenomics. Right. He's a transparent snitch. Like we said, you don't need a token to be a tattletale. And it's sad to see Laura Lowman promoting a tattletale token. Just the absolute worst. It's just,

59:31Richard Greaser I mean, I'm a shitcoiner, but I shitcoin using an arrow. You know what I mean? To buy cigarettes. Like that's a legitimate reason to shitcoin, but snitching on the blockchain, I would argue is an illegitimate reason to shitcoin. I grew up. Snitches get stitches.

59:47Rod Palmer 100%.

59:48Richard Greaser Yeah. What do we what should we do? Should we go beat these people up? Beat up the the shitcoiners?

59:54Rod Palmer Yeah. What do we wanna do at this point? It's like, if you shitcoin on my property, you're gonna get a shotgun to your ass, up your ass, a boot up your ass at least. But, you know, I I don't have the time or the time preference to chase you around, you know, in public,

1:00:12Rod Palmer tattletailing on you for shit coin, promoting unregistered securities. At this point, you get what you get. And if if somebody decides to kick your ass because you scammed them, well, you deserve it. Totally.

1:00:25Richard Greaser Well, thank you for the boost, Sean. Is this Bliza again? It says anonymous on my computer. Yeah. Yeah. That is Bliza. Yeah. I don't know what's up with my typewriter. It doesn't always get the oh, wow. Next boost was from LaVaugh. Bliza says, this is for KYC free Marlboro red for Timmy Tether. Can't wait for his upcoming daily or weekly show.

1:00:51Richard Greaser Oh, boy.

1:00:53Rod Palmer Hell, yeah. Stay tuned for that. Timmy Tether is, yeah. He's I mean, if he listens to the commercial, he's he's doing ads for us for our t shirts. He's becoming a bigger a bigger part of this production. You wanna get the next one there? Seems like he's you noticed that one.

1:01:12Richard Greaser Oh, I noticed it. I noticed it real good. Next next boost, 500 sats from Laha, Cliff Shark, the the guy that does the music videos for the incredible band, Scardust.

1:01:26Rod Palmer Mall of Ice.

1:01:28Richard Greaser VVV. So v is something in I don't know why, but the Israelis say it. I think it means it good or something like that or cool. It's like value for value. Well, appreciate the boost, Lahav.

1:01:44Rod Palmer Hell yeah. Thanks for knowing what you think, though. Next one is from Pink Monkey. Pink Monkey just boost us 500 sats. No, no base message. So thank you, Pink Monkey. Also, frequent,

1:01:60Richard Greaser value for value participant. Got another another one from anonymous. Is this Blizzard again?

1:02:05Rod Palmer No. This is just user 40113771. So this is somebody who they wanted to boost us, but the user experience wasn't good enough for them to, fill out their profile apparently. I wonder,

1:02:21Richard Greaser do you think the issue here where we're getting anonymous on, on this page Maybe it's a double boost. I I think it's probably because they don't have it the profile integrated with Noster. I think that's the issue.

1:02:37Rod Palmer I could not I think play I think Pink Monkey well, I don't know. You're right. I don't know. I don't wanna speculate. Next boost from Pies, 420

1:02:45Richard Greaser sets, v for v, hashtag 40 HPW. The, the guys at Plugchain did a roast of Pies.

1:02:53Rod Palmer Yeah. That's right. That's right. And it I saw Pies' reaction on Nostril. He really appreciated it. It was, thoughtful very thoughtful, but, roast. It was almost it was barely a roast to be honest with you, but it's hard to it's hard to roast somebody like pies. No. So the whenever somebody has it integrated with Oster, when you're on the app, you can, like, like or or boost or zap, excuse me, or retweet. But if they don't have it integrated with Nostr, like user 40113 blah blah blah blah and as well as Blisa,

1:03:29Rod Palmer they are, found in app only. No Nostra integration. This last one, the Novus one, they just they don't even have a username. Interesting. Last boost from BTC onboard,

1:03:42Richard Greaser 300 sets. Lightning, lightning, 40 HPW.

1:03:47Rod Palmer 40 HPW indeed. Well, yeah. I mean, like, that's I think that's the first, non emoji message. BTC on board has boosted us. So maybe, maybe he's just, he doesn't, he doesn't know English and now he learned 40 HBW. So he's on his way

1:04:07Richard Greaser to learning English because of forty hours per week. You know, there there's gonna be all these bragging rights throughout Bitcoin history that you can reference. So you you can say things like you were on Bitcoin talk in 2014.

1:04:22Rod Palmer You know what I mean? You're on something that Pete Rizzo is gonna treat about five years from now, ten years from now. Yeah. You could say that you bought Bitcoin in 2011 to use the Silk Road.

1:04:33Richard Greaser You could say that you're in Bitcoin talk in, like, 2014. You could say that you were at the the conference that Trump spoke at. But I think the big one the big one to be referencing is that you were a forty hour per week podcast listener in 2025. Like, that's gonna be one of the big bragging rights that I would put Yeah.

1:04:56Richard Greaser On the list.

1:04:57Rod Palmer Then if you if you were a forty hours per week person in 2024, that's gonna be like buying Bitcoin before, like, there was an exchange with a dollar price. It'd be like,

1:05:09Richard Greaser it'd be like fucking buying pizza with like Laszlo did. Definitely. Well, you got any closing thoughts before we wrap up this episode?

1:05:17Rod Palmer You can't tear off my note. I have a feeling Pleasure's gonna be reporting people who are doing illegal, transactions without including tariffs, but that's gonna be solved. Jesse over at, Amboss, they're going to make it so that you can pay tariffs

1:05:35Rod Palmer on your Lightning channel when you're using, Tether to transact over Lightning. So you don't have to worry about any of these regulatory clarity issues any longer. Very exciting.
