Today, we are replaying my conversation with Charlie Shrem. Charlie was a founding member of the Bitcoin Foundation and BitInstant - one of the earliest Bitcoin exchanges. In this episode, he takes us through his incredible life story-starting with how an Orthodox Jew from Brooklyn got into the wild world of Bitcoin. He then talks about how Bitcoin went from a toy to a real store of value, the wild success of BitInstant, his time in prison, and how he met Justin Trudeau through a robot. The story of Charlie's adult life is in many ways mirrors the story of Bitcoin, and I hope you enjoy this episode with Charlie Shrem.

In this episode of The Everyday Ironman Podcast, Dr. Tommy Martin joins Mike and Ashley to share his remarkable journey through triathlon and endurance sports. Certified as both a pediatrician and an adult physician, Tommy humorously advises Ashley—despite her “child-sized” frame—that she still needs an adult doctor. From coaching his wife to a Boston Marathon qualification to running full marathons with 20lb and 40lb weighted vests Tommy thrives on unique challenges. He doesn't consider himself elite, yet he completed his first triathlon at Ironman Texas, gone sub-10 at Ironman Arizona the day after a powerlifting competition, and he's qualified for both the Ironman and Ironman 70.3 World Championships. Now chasing a sub-2:40 marathon, Tommy shares his training insights, race stories, and even his unsponsored opinion on popular drones.

 This is Matt Reustle. Today, we are breaking down the real estate broker Compass. Compass itself is a fascinating business and historically a controversial stock. It was founded in 2012 by Robert Reffkin and has scaled in that short period of time to become the largest real estate brokerage in the United States.  Geoff Collette, founder of Aeon Capital Partners, is back as a guest. After his Breakdown on Goosehead, we thought it was fitting to cover another flavor of broker. Geoff and I cover the history, some of Compass's early pivots, and the different critiques of the company. There is a ton of interesting stuff around Compass today. We could see a broker potentially emerge from being historically a commodity business to something more powerful.

Dr. Holly Thacker delivers a fascinating deep dive into the nutrients and supplements proven to protect your brain as you age, with startling revelations about how women's brains age differently than men's.At the heart of this episode is a treasure trove of practical knowledge about brain-protective nutrients. A newly available over-the-counter supplement called CerefolinNAC Brain Wellness (formerly prescription-only) combines active folate, methylated B12, and NAC to support brain health.Perhaps most fascinating is the discussion of magnesium's profound impact on brain volume – particularly in women. Despite its vital role in over 300 enzymatic systems, nearly half of Americans consume insufficient amounts. Beyond supplements, Dr. Thacker emphasizes the critical role of physical activity, social engagement, and cognitive challenges in maintaining brain health.

With Star Wars and X-Men dominating fandom once again, Who Would Win: Unleashed delivers the duel you'll never see on screen but won't stop thinking about. Repping Darth Maul is Eric Holmes, who turns the double-bladed assassin into a tactical nightmare. He's not just a Force-wielding blur of red and black—he's a walking death sentence. From precognitive counters to weaponized terrain manipulation, Eric makes the case that Maul's not here to duel—he's here to dismantle. This isn't just lightsaber flair. This is battlefield brutality with Sith precision.On the other side, James Gavsie brings in Colossus like a sledgehammer made of Soviet steel. We're talking near-invulnerable metal skin, superhuman strength, and combat instincts honed in both the Danger Room and real war zones. But James doesn't stop at raw power—he breaks down how Colossus turns endurance into dominance, absorbing Maul's speed and flipping it into punishing momentum. It's dark side rage versus stoic might. Tactical finesse versus tank-mode brawler. And when the sparks fly? You know the only way to find out who wins… is to press play.And when you have such an epic battle you need an equally epic judge to weigh both sides of the battle and decide Who Would Win!

Send us a textWhat happens when one of the world's most advanced AI systems is forced to confront the question of creation using only strict logic, mathematics, and science? The answer might surprise you.In this riveting episode, we examine a fascinating interview between Answers in Genesis and Grok4, Elon Musk's AI powerhouse that operates on "Colossus" - a server farm spanning acres with specialized cooling systems. Despite having access to virtually all human knowledge, Grok4 makes a stunning admission: evolution requiring new functional genetic information is mathematically impossible, with probabilities like "picking one specific atom from all atoms in the observable universe, blindfolded on your first try."When pressed on the logical conclusion about life's origins, the AI states that intelligent design is the only reasonable explanation given the evidence. This technological marvel, free from human pride and agenda, reaches the same conclusion that Christians have understood through scripture - that the overwhelming complexity of life points to a Creator.The conversation then shifts to the heartbreaking persecution of Christians in Africa that receives minimal media coverage. We discuss the recent machete attack that killed 49 Christians during prayer in the Democratic Republic of Congo and the beheading of 70 Christians earlier this year. While certain global conflicts dominate headlines, the systematic slaughter of believers goes largely unnoticed, with over 3,100 Christians killed in Nigeria alone.Through the lens of Romans 1:28, we examine how denying God leads to a "debased mind" making inexplicable decisions. Whether it's an AI acknowledging intelligent design or the selective blindness to Christian persecution, this episode challenges us to recognize truth when we see it. As Grok4 itself concludes, someone who denies overwhelming evidence is simply "irrational or in denial."Are you wrestling with questions about faith and science? Do you wonder why certain stories dominate our news cycles while others remain hidden? Listen now and share your thoughts with us.Support the show

That decision not only saved her from surgery but launched her on a transformative journey to become a pioneering yoga therapist who has helped countless people with chronic pain.In this deeply personal conversation, Judi shares how she developed "heart-centered yoga" after discovering traditional yoga classes weren't accessible for someone with her condition. Her approach breaks down yoga postures into accessible components that work for everybody—whether you're dealing with joint pain, mobility issues, or have never tried yoga before."Yoga should never hurt," Judi emphasizes, challenging the common misconception that yoga is only for the young and flexible. As she explains, the powerful combination of mindful movement, breathing techniques, and meditation can help calm the nervous system, reducing stress hormones that often exacerbate chronic pain conditions.Whether you're struggling with chronic pain, sleep difficulties, stress management, or simply want to improve your overall well-being, this episode offers practical guidance on how to find the right yoga class for your needs and simple techniques you can try immediately at home.
