They dig deep into the power of stories and how narratives and power structures are shifting in front of our eyes. Walker and Guy discuss the importance of peer-to-peer money (Bitcoin) and communication (Nostr, Holepunch) in the era of the Censorship Industrial Complex, and how AI fits into the story of our collective future.

"Sure, there's a lot of negatives when potentially bad people can do really bad things. Just like if you give everyone in society a gun. There's a lot of people who can do bad things with a gun. But guess what you can't do? You can't rule them as a tyrant. You can't have a society where everybody has a gun. It's actually a pretty polite society."
