In the sixth episode of our new season of Web3 Innovators, our host Conor Svensson is joined by Daniel Heyman the Co-Founder and CEO of Palm NFT Studio. Palm NFT studio is a collective of Software Developers, Generative Artists, Storyworld Creators, and Strategists and spans all aspects of Web3 technology and creative production.Before starting his current company, Daniel was the Co-Founder of PegaSys, which is now the Protocol Engineering division of ConsenSys.Episode highlights:How studying the adoption of mobile technology in Kenya got Daniel interested in the spaceHis learning outcomes from founding a company that wasn't successful and the path after thisWhere the inspiration for Palm NFT Studio came from and its founding storyThe challenges the company has faced in its 1st year and how they have worked to overcome themTheir aim for people to have direct ownership over the digital assets they care about and how they are trying to make this a realityDaniel's belief that eventually all assets will be represented by NFTsKey Takeaways:It seemed evident to me that if we could connect the biggest brands in the world into this technology innovation, we could not only produce some really meaningful projects, but we could use those as the tip of the spear to broader adoption of our entire ecosystem. So Palm Studio set out to create the best platform for large scale web artists, creators, and brands to adopt Web3 technologies. - DanielA huge problem that NFT's have is the misconception in the market of what they are. A lot of people see them as speculative assets that are there to make a quick buck, and people understandably react negatively to that idea. - DanielWe need to do a lot of work educating the fan base that this isn't a way to make a quick buck. It is to give the audience a deeper connection to the brand and people's relationship to the brand. It's to give them a piece of the universe, or a piece of the art, or something they can truly own themselves. - DanielEverything is focused around delivering value to the end user and if there's revenue associated with that, wonderful. But, just like any product, you start from the point of what value you are providing, not how much money you can make. - DanielMy belief is that in five years, 99% of NFTs will either be free or below $10. These need to be things that everyone can adopt and consume and interact with, and they can't just be high value collectables for the crypto rich. - DanielResources:Palm NFT StudioPegaSysConsenSysMIT's Poverty Action LabSafaricomDefiSummerDamien Hirst Project➡️ Remember to leave us a 5* review and we'd love to hear your comments too!➡️ Follow Web3 Labs on Twitter➡️ Follow Web3 Labs on LinkedIn➡️ Follow Conor on Twitter➡️ Get Conor's latest thoughts on Web3 at https://writing.conorsvensson.com/

We're live from the LA Auto Show, learning about the latest reveals in the North American auto industry. We did some quick recording from the cabin of the new Kia K900, and then brought in some friends from the Canadian journalism and auto world. Visitors to our podcast this episode are auto journalists Dan Heyman and Evan Williams, and our friend and Mopar enthusiast Brad Horn from Fiat-Chrysler Canada. Cars talked about include the new Porsche 911, Jeep Gladiator, and many more!
In our first episode, we examine the importance of a free press to our democracy in the wake of recent attacks on the First Amendment by the Trump administration, including the arrest of journalist Dan Heyman at the West Virginia Capitol. Guests: Eli Baumwell (ACLU-WV), Gene Policinski (Newseum), Dan Heyman (Public News Service). More information: http://acluwv.org. One nation, under pod.
Guest Dan Heyman is in the studio to argue with and refute Benjamin's past assassination of the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and talk about his journey across France in the Infiniti Q60. Sami joins in to discuss the Rolls-Royce Dawn and the lunacy of a $90,000 BMW 5 Series.
In this episode, the guys address whether the political left or the political right is the biggest threat to freedom of speech in the United States. Their answer probably won't surprise you, but it will give you some ammunition during your next twitter fight with some dude with a Pepe the Frog icon. To tee up this subject, the guys examine the case of journalist Dan Heyman, who was just arrested (!) for trying to ask a question about the AHCA to a rather reluctant Tom Price, the guy who's Secretary of Health and Human Services and who's job description includes answering these kinds of questions. In the main segment, the guys compare the real threat to free speech with the latest complaint filed by our friends over at the Alliance Defending Freedom. This particular lawsuit was filed on behalf of creationist lunatic Andrew Snelling, who wants to steal rocks from the Grand Canyon so he can prove something something Jesus moon lasers something and therefore, the earth is only 6,000 years old. What you won't expect: Andrew actually praises this Complaint! Multiple times! After that, Andrew tackles a question from listener Thomas McCormick who -- perhaps somewhat tongue-in-cheek? -- wonders why churches are tax-exempt at all. In (not) answering the question, Andrew also points out some special benefits churches get under the tax code. Finally, we end with the answer to Thomas Takes the Bar Exam question #24 about double hearsay. We'll release a new #TTTBE question this Friday, and, as always, answer that question the following Tuesday. Don't forget to play along by following our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and/or our Facebook Page and quoting the Tweet or Facebook Post that announces this episode along with your guess and reason(s), and don't forget that patrons who support us at any level get early access to the answers (and usually a fun post analyzing the question in more detail). Recent Appearances: None, but you should check out Thomas's other show, Serious Inquiries Only, and in particular episode #41 featuring Michael Shermer backpedaling on his the-left-is-killing-free-speech tweets and articles. Show Notes & Links Mediaite has the video and some contemporaneous tweets of the Heyman arrest. This is a copy of the Complaint the ADF filed on behalf of Andrew Snelling. Finally, two of the special statutes that benefit churches (and only churches) cited by Andrew in the "C" segment are 26 U.S.C. § 508(c) and 26 U.S.C. § 7611.
