GM Over the course of two 15 hr flights back and forth in the last week, I’ve watched 7 out of 8 Mission Impossible movies. No idea why. (The 8th isn’t available)

Dropping at brunch time this Sunday, Feb 22: Sunday Brunch with guest host @Aaron of Essex and his guest, @Longy 👀 No live stream this week – the episode will be available on your favorite podcasting 2.0 app and features Longy's two newest songs - Hamlet Court Road, and You Say You're a Warrior. He shares his thoughts on both of those songs as well as a few others

Say WoT? – Ep. 3 is live 🔧🕸️🤝 Guest host @david sits down with Matthias DeBernardini for a deep technical convo on Web-of-Trust and the real question underneath it: how do we build decentralized recommendation and discovery without recreating Big Tech incentives? They get into: • why “decentralized labeling” often recentralizes anyway • graph theory + “grapevine” WoT as a human-scaled curation layer • where local models actually make sense (narrow tasks, personal assistants, fine-tuning) • the signal-to-noise problem as an incentives problem • the escape hatch: user control, delegated trust, opt-out, better tools If you’re building on Nostr and care about ranking, moderation, discovery, or AI-assisted filtering … this one’s for you.

New Plebchain Radio is live 🥛⚡️🧵 Episode 151 is with Ryan Cooper from @npub1azut...aqwq , and it’s all about building the New Silk Roads without empire: local trade, real food, and community that actually moves goods. We talk: – getting “pandemic orange-pilled” on fragile supply chains – the “milk route” mentality: supporting farmers directly and rebuilding local markets – the Denim Road vision: trade corridors connecting meetups, producers, and households … and more If you want a parallel economy you can taste and touch, this one’s for you.

Sunday Brunch episode 6 is live ☕️⚡️🎶 Guest host @OpenMike was in the driver’s seat with @Tatum Turn Up for a laid-back hang that somehow covered: orange-pilling, creator life, V4V media, streaming wars, and gamer-brain chaos (Kaizo SMW romhacks included). They got into: – how Tatum went from Pomp’s “crypto academy” to filming with Pomp (internet destiny vibes) – the origin + momentum of Between Two ASICs – why Value-for-Value + live events feel like a better patron model than legacy platforms – Twitch incentives vs zap.stream creator loops – IRL Nostr magic, micro-Nostrica moments, and festival energy (WhatFest, etc.) Listen in! 🎧⚡️

GM, Especially to the ones who are able to channel their frustration with their current situation, whatever that might be, into constructive action. You are appreciated 🙏

New Plebchain Radio is live 🌱⚡️🕸️ Ep. 150 is a dirt-under-the-fingernails conversation with @AU9913 from the Meshtadel world: regenerative farming, circular Bitcoin economies, and building resilience from the base layer up. We get into: – why soil is the original protocol (and what “regeneration” actually looks like on the ground) – management-intensive rotational grazing with sheep, pigs, and cattle – closing loops: manure, biodiversity, low-input systems, and the return of the tiny allies (yes, dung beetles) – meetups as trade nodes: raw milk, honey, meats, soaps, salsa, 3D-printed goods, and sats changing hands – the big vision: regional “Silk Roads” connecting cities and communities into real commerce beyond the platforms

Sunday Brunch #5 is live ☕️🎛️⚡️ This week I’m hanging with @DJ Valerie B LOVE🩷 for a proper guest-DJ brunch session: curve balls, lightning rods, heart openers, and a playlist built to surprise. We riffed on: the dream of an open-source “cypher opera”; remix culture, collaboration, and what creativity looks like when tools get weird; and copyright/IP in an AI world that eats styles for breakfast

I wrote and recorded a Plebchain Radio sermon yesterday in an episode with @Ben Justman🍷 that is scheduled to drop on Feb 24. However, since the topic deals with the current, and very raw events surrounding Epstein and prominent bitcoiners, I'm dropping the sermon text now View article →

If nostr succeeds wildly in the next few years, but your contributions as an early adopter and builder are not acknowledged at all, would it have been worth it? My answer is yes, 100%. What about you? 🫵

Looking for experts on art IP and copyright law to have as guests on Plebchain Radio. I’m looking for both sides – 1. IP/copyright shouldn’t/doesn’t exist for art and 2. It does and should exist as a critical necessity. Not a debate. I want to learn. #asknostr
