In this enlightening episode of The Free Thought Project podcast, Jason flies solo (with Matt on vacation) for a deep-dive conversation with longtime liberty activist and Free Talk Live co-host, Mark Edge. Note: Jason's mic wasn't working correctly for the first 17 minutes — but the insights are worth sticking around for. Mark's radio co-host and Free Talk Live co-founder, Ian Freeman, is currently serving time in federal prison for the "crime" of facilitating Bitcoin transactions — a glaring example of the federal government's ongoing war on crypto. We unpack Ian's unjust prosecution, his prank encounter with Joe Biden that may have put him in the feds' crosshairs, and the heartbreaking reality that Free Talk Live is now on life support. Jason and Mark also reflect on their time at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas, the energy and evolution of the crypto movement, and briefly touch on Roger Ver's new book Hijacking Bitcoin. We discuss the importance of decentralization, the co-optation risks crypto faces, and Ross Ulbricht's powerful first public speech since being imprisoned in 2013. The conversation turns toward the two-party illusion, the failures of political reform through party expansion, and whether a potential second Trump term could change the trajectory of the crypto crackdown. We wrap with a white pill: Mark's optimism, what keeps him going after nearly two decades in the fight for liberty, and how we can support Ian and others like him. This is a must-listen for anyone who cares about digital freedom, liberty activism, and the future of financial sovereignty.

While sanitation in the home might be something many of us take for granted, in this episode we dive deeper into how they work - the specifics of decentralized water systems, how they work, their benefits and their disadvantages. Host Sarah Stancombe is joined by expert Dr. Santiago Septien Stringel to discuss his journey toward waste management. Dr. Santiago Septien Stringel obtained chemical engineering degrees both at Bachelor and Masters levels, with a specialization in wastewater treatment. He went on to pursue his professional career with a PhD on biomass gasification in 2011 and a post-doctorate, in the same domain, for  two  more   years, in French research institutes. During this period, he acquired an expertise in thermochemical processes and biofuels. In 2014, he joined the WASH R&D Centre at the University of KwaZulu-Natal to supervise master research projects funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Water Research Commission. Currently, his focus is: leading research related to decentralized sanitation treatment systems, supporting and advising sanitation practitioners and supervising undergraduate and postgraduate students.  In this episode, Dr. Santiago Septien Stringel explains the differences between centralized and decentralized water systems, what kinds of regions use each one, and what it takes to maintain them. There can be disadvantages with decentralized systems, such as poor management, which can lead to harming the environment.  Together, Sarah and Dr. Santiago Septien Stringel explore innovations in the field. Dr. Santiago Septien Stringel suggests setting up a grey water system in the home to make the most of water usage, and reduce costs.

What if everything we thought about leadership was backward? In this thought-provoking exploration of "The Genius of Jesus," we unpack how Christ established the most effective leadership development movement in history—not through controlling hierarchies but through radical trust and empowerment.• Jesus exemplifies genius by seeing connections others couldn't see and establishing an upside-down kingdom• The Pharisaical tendency in leadership seeks identity in power over others rather than empowerment• Healthy organizations foster innovation through teams rather than bureaucratic hierarchy• Trust functions as currency—when present, it propels ministry forward; when absent, it creates resistance• Effective leadership balances high trust with high accountability through transparency• Decentralized decision-making requires clear values and principles that guide but don't restrict• Leadership thrives when principles rather than rigid rules govern behavior• Effective leaders instill thirst for mission rather than merely creating manuals and proceduresSupport the showJoin the Lead Time Newsletter!

Can "quantum biology" explain why even the healthiest people are still getting sick? In this episode, Dr. Alison Monette reveals why circadian rhythm health is the true foundation of wellness, not diet, exercise, or even supplements. She explains how morning sunlight, light exposure, and your alignment with natural cycles may matter more than anything else you're doing right now.We go deep into how Dr. Monette went from owning a CrossFit gym and practicing functional medicine, to discovering that even those models were still too centralized. Through her personal health journey and treating thousands of patients, she realized that quantum biology and decentralized health are the missing pieces, especially for those who are doing everything “right” and still not getting results.This conversation is for anyone who's burned out on biohacking, confused by contradictory nutrition advice, or who wants a simple, grounded way to build resilient, lifelong health. We unpack why blue light may be silently wrecking your sleep, how to use sunlight to reset your metabolism, and why your mitochondria are the real key to wellness. It's not about optimizing harder, it's about aligning smarter.If you've ever felt like modern life is out of sync with your biology, this episode will hit home.

“Coverage on demand is here—and it's being built by the community.”—Mario Di Dio, General Manager, Network Helium, Nova Labs Mario Di Dio In a groundbreaking step toward redefining wireless connectivity, Helium Network and Nova Labs have teamed up with AT&T to deliver seamless, secure Wi-Fi access across the U.S. through a decentralized network model. In a podcast interview with Technology Reseller News, Mario Di Dio, General Manager of Network Helium at Nova Labs, walked us through this major milestone and explained how Helium is reshaping the economics and delivery of mobile data. Unlike traditional networks built on costly infrastructure and centralized control, the Helium model allows individuals and businesses to host "mini cell towers"—hotspots that contribute to a nationwide mesh network. Now, with AT&T onboard, the Helium Network enables AT&T customers to connect automatically to these community-powered hotspots without any manual setup, thanks to Passpoint-enabled, WPA3-secure connections. “Just walk into a participating venue like a restaurant or community center,” said Di Dio, “and your phone automatically connects to the network without passwords, boosting coverage in hard-to-reach indoor areas.” The benefits extend to small business owners who can offer secure, guest Wi-Fi while earning Helium Network Tokens (HNT) for hosting a hotspot. This not only enhances customer satisfaction but also introduces a new revenue stream. Deployment is flexible—businesses can install purpose-built Helium devices or convert existing hardware from brands like Ubiquiti, Cisco Meraki, and Aruba into Helium-compatible units. A central element of Helium's transparency and scalability is Helium World (world.helium.com), a live, blockchain-backed dashboard that displays real-time data on hotspot locations, user traffic, and network usage. With over 90,000 active hotspots and peaks of over 900,000 users, the platform provides both visibility for carriers and insights for potential deployers. Another standout innovation is Helium's real-time quality of experience (QoE) metrics. “For the first time, carriers can get live KPIs from third-party Wi-Fi connections just like they do from their own cellular networks,” said Di Dio. This allows providers like AT&T to monitor and dynamically manage the user experience, toggling between Wi-Fi and cellular as needed. As Helium expands through partnerships with other mobile and virtual network operators, its vision for “coverage on demand” continues to gain traction. Using an innovative “expansion zone” feature, carriers can request network growth in targeted areas, and Helium's community of deployers responds. With this shift, Di Dio believes we're witnessing the future of wireless—one that's scalable, community-driven, and more responsive to real-world needs. “It's a very interesting economic proposition for carriers, and a practical one for the people and places that make up our connected world,” he said.

Formerly entrenched in the financial services industry, Nathan opens up about his disillusionment with the system and why he walked away to build something radically better. From financial oppression to mental health and systemic inequities, this conversation dives deep into how the traditional financial model is not just outdated—but harmful. Discover how Creatria is building a people-first financial ecosystem through peer-to-peer empowerment, transparency, and social commerce.

Chris Dixon believes we're at a pivotal inflection point in the internet's evolution. As a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz and author of Read Write Own, Chris believes the current internet, dominated by large platforms like YouTube and Spotify, has strayed far from its decentralized roots. He argues that the next era—powered by blockchain technology—can restore autonomy to creators, lower barriers for innovation, and shift economic power back to the network's edges. Tyler and Chris discuss the economics of platform dominance, how blockchains merge protocol-based social benefits with corporate-style competitive advantages, the rise of stablecoins as a viable blockchain-based application, whether Bitcoin or AI-created currencies will dominate machine-to-machine payments, why Stack Overflow could be the first of many casualties in an AI-driven web, venture capital's vulnerability to AI disruption, whether open-source AI could preserve national sovereignty, NFTs as digital property rights system for AIs, how Kant's synthetic a priori, Kripke's modal logic, and Heidegger's Dasein sneak into Dixon's term‑sheet thinking, and much more.

My buddy Chris Jenkins just got back from ETHDenver, and he's buzzing about the convergence of crypto and AI.He's the head of operations at the Pocket Network Foundation, and right now, they're gearing up for their biggest protocol upgrade ever: Shannon. What they're doing is wild — opening up full permissionless access to decentralized data, from blockchain RPC calls to AI models, Tor nodes, and everything in between.We talk about agentic systems, LLMs, censorship-resistant data delivery, and why the future of open infrastructure needs crypto tokens to work at all. We also get into what it takes to build B2B tools that feel like B2C, why content creators (like podcasters) should be thinking about data licensing, and why the days of centralized APIs and broken bridges may be numbered.This one's nerdy, future-forward, and full of practical examples for how it's all being built right now.This episode contains strong language.
