I went inskeptical, dreading 'big oil' propoganda, but Alex provides a whole new way of looking at energy and climate 'crisis' - one of human flourishing. He makes indisputable arguments about reliability and wholesome hydrocarbons being used in chemistry we have no replacements for.

One minor suggestion is to perhaps slow the discussion down and summarize what's been said by the guest after a longer talking point, rather than jumping straight into another deep topic.

In any case, it was a pleasure listening to two knowledgeable people talking about a crucial topic.

Pleasantly surprised

Great content with experts from the FIAT and non fiat world - highly recommended to learn more about Bitcoin and the world of finance - especially the manipulations that are abundant in the world of Fiat.

Great interviews

If a “flat earther” told you all these amazing things about Bitcoin, would throw your money at it without a second though?

I used to think this podcast was great and very informative. However, after hearing a one hour rant on Elon Musk in ep. 57 that started with “climate change is a lie”, and then presenting a wildly skewed view of the world, I’m starting to question everything else said about Bitcoin. I’ll be looking for a less discolored source of information from now on.

It was great, all until it uncovered it’s view on other topics
