The countdown to the weekend has begun, which means a @Plebchain Radio 🎙️ double-header is dropping. First up is episode 148 – tomorrow, Friday Jan 30 at 12pm ET/ 1700 UTC. @Coach Carbon will join me, and we'll talk about Proof-of-Workout, the Bitcoin Baller Academy, PoW games, and much more. Then, on Sunday, February 1 at 12pm ET/ 1700 UTC, Jim Costello of @PhantomPowerMedia – a man who resembles David Lynch more and more with each passing day – will be joining me for Brunch, brandishing an expertly curated playlist of independent music. You don't want to miss either of these shows, and the good news is, you won't have to. They will be streamed live on your favorite nostr livestreaming client.

Say WoT? Ep 2 is live 🔧🕸️🤝 I sat down with @Gzuuus for a deep, technical walk through the Web-of-Trust stack and how to build reputation-aware systems without handing the keys to Big Compute. We talk: – ContextVM: transport-layer thinking, ephemeral events, minimalism over “kitchen sink” – Relator: open-source, self-hostable WoT scoring you can run on humble hardware – Tunable trust scoring (0–1) using social distance + decay functions – Spam mitigation + client UX, and the interoperability headaches around secure messaging If you’re building on Nostr and you care about signal, ranking, or reputation … this one’s for you. https://fountain.fm/episode/emFUU2tGnuiGRRu0Q27W

The third edition of Sunday Brunch is now served 🔊 I was joined by @OpenMike who brought a perfectly curated open music playlist. In the gap between the songs, we chatted about the unfolding situation on the ground in Minneapolis, onboarding musicians to nostr, a planned v4v concert in Belgrade in June, and planting the flag in a cultural embassy in the heart of downtown Austin. Listen in and support the open music ecosystem 🎧 ⚡ – 90% of your boosts and streams go directly to the artists when the songs are playing. Artists featured on the episode: @npub18vy7...3d5w , @Theo Katzman , @means , @npub1kepj...nlsn , @Suzanne Santo and Dirt Moon https://fountain.fm/episode/Di6uhAHK7G3MoPbrJFRA

The third edition of Sunday Brunch will be live tomorrow, Sunday January 25 at 1700 UTC / 12pm ET. My guest will be @OpenMike, wielding a banger playlist. Come listen to his expert curation, and some lighthearted Sunday banter. Available on your favorite livestreaming nostr client.

New @Plebchain Radio 🎙️ episode is live, and I almost called it the “The TruMoo Show” 🐄📺🥩 @Tom Ta₿er returns to the show to talk Beef Initiative + the acquisition of beef.com: building a “digital ranch,” reconnecting consumers to ranchers, and restoring the local oracle (the people you can look in the eye who tell you what’s real). We talk about how ranching culture runs on integrity, “cowboy code,” and accountability in a world that's resembling the Truman Show more and more by the day. We also discuss rebuilding independent micro-processing centers, and why Bitcoin capital can fund real-world infrastructure that saves ranches. Who’s your local oracle? Rancher, butcher, farmer, neighbor ... or podcaster 👀 🎧 ?
