In this episode, I discuss my idea that bitcoin = just (righteous) war theory, while fiat = just (only) war theory. Let me know in a comment / boost if you liked the episode!
Technology increases our potential, but also presents new obstacles that make it harder to reach our potential. I explain how the Tower of Babel story is really about a disruptive new technology leading humans to settle, rather than expand. I link the theme introduced in Genesis 11 to humans' current struggle to best adapt in a world with many emergent technologies, including the internet and bitcoin.
On today's episode I discuss some questions that I find very helpful as a therapist. I also discuss how these techniques are used by therapists who work with athletes. Hopefully this is helpful for improving your own mental health!

Overall, I think this book 1) has the potential for orange-pilling progressive readers and 2) will be invaluable for non-progressive audiences who will find a surprising amount of common ground with Jason.
This episode discusses the flaws of each Souls game, how Elden Ring addresses them, and what this process teaches us about bitcoin and the therapeutic process.
