The Worst It'll Ever Be: AI Apps in 20 Minutes, SpaceX's $1.8T IPO & Saylor's Head Fake — Bad Crypto Podcast #810 It's a bear market, so the bad boys of crypto are doing what builders do: SHIPPING. Bitcoin sits at $61,873, the altcoins are in the crapper, and Joel has officially divorced his bags. Travis explains why the 4-year cycle is alive and well — mapping this pullback exactly to previous cycles, with a projected bottom around mid-October. Then it goes full mad-scientist. Travis builds a viral-worthy "Culture Shock" site of World Cup visitors reviewing America in 20 minutes flat with Claude's new Fable model, then ships Viddl — a desktop app that downloads video from YouTube, X, TikTok, Instagram or LinkedIn with FFmpeg baked in. Joel premieres his AI-generated origin story film (1978, a food court paycheck, and a TRS-80 in a Radio Shack window) and announces his Acumen daily puzzle games are headed to the App Store. Plus: SpaceX IPOs as $SPCX at a $1.8 TRILLION valuation with ~$250B in demand, OpenAI and Anthropic file to go public, Michael Saylor's 32-BTC head fake, a trader who built his own exchange from a 42-page prompt, and the AI video tool stack the guys actually use (Kling, PAI, Higgsfield, Seedance & more).

John Lee Dumas has published a podcast episode every single day for 14 years, leading to more than 5,000 episodes of Entrepreneurs on Fire. He records seven interviews in a single day each week, built a multimillion-dollar media business around the show, and put together 12 straight years of $100K+ months in net profit. But when I asked him what he'd do if he were starting a podcast today, he didn't hesitate. He said he would never launch an interview show. In fact, he called interview podcasts a waste of time for 99% of people making them today. Bold statement from someone who built his entire empire on one. So what would he do instead? He already tested it. John launched a second show built around a completely different model, and within months it was generating 5-figures a month while dominating a highly specific niche audience. In this episode, he breaks down exactly how he built it, and why he thinks it's the only kind of show worth starting in 2026.   Key Takeaways with John Lee Dumas (00:47) Daily Podcasting for 14 Years  (02:22) Creating a Great Interview Using AI (04:31) Publishing His Monthly Revenue for Years (07:20) The One Word Most Entrepreneurs Never Learn  (10:11) Compare And Despair (12:01) Why Most Podcasts Are Garbage  (13:31) Advice for Starting a Podcast 2026 (21:27) How Have His Monetization Channels Changed?

What if you could sit across from 10 of the most successful entrepreneurs alive, ask them one money question, and actually get a straight answer? No fluff, no sales pitch, just the real stuff. That's exactly what I did, and honestly, what came out of it might change the way you think about money forever. This episode is a mashup of some of the most powerful financial wisdom I've ever collected on The Happy Hustle Podcast. Over time, I asked 10 incredible guests two simple questions. What does happy hustling mean to you? And what's your best money hack? We're talking Dr. Myron Golden, John Lee Dumas, Dan Martell, Rory Vaden, Danette May, Garrett Gunderson, Nathan Barry, Kris Krohn, Pat Flynn, and Kiana Danial. Nine figure founders, New York Times bestselling authors, Hall of Fame speakers, and real estate moguls. I pulled all their answers together, distilled them down, and found something I honestly didn't even expect to find. Three clear money patterns that every single one of them follows. Whether you're still grinding through your first income stream or you're already running a business and wondering why the wealth still feels out of reach, this one is going to hit different. The first big lesson that kept showing up was this: stop trading time for money. My brother Myron Golden put it simply. Price your offer by the value of the result, not the hours it takes. Dan Martell added another layer with his buyback rate concept. Figure out what your time is worth per hour, then ruthlessly outsource everything below that number. CKris Krohn brought it home with real estate, reminding us that renters fund landlords and employees fund employers. The point? Your income needs to be detached from your hours. That's the whole game. The second lesson is build once and earn forever. Pat Flynn, Nathan Barry, Rory Vaden, and my girl Danette May all circled around this same idea in their own way. Build an audience. Build a flywheel. Build a personal brand with your reputation as the foundation. Danette laid it out beautifully. One book becomes a course, becomes a coaching program, becomes a product line. Your story is the asset woven through all of it. And as Rory said, reputation precedes revenue. In a world where AI can replicate almost any skill, your name and your story are the one thing that can't be copied. The third lesson is that cash flow is king and identity is queen. Garrett Gunderson said it clearly. Cash flow beats net worth. Invest in assets that pay you monthly. Kiana Danial backed this up with a deceptively simple move, dollar cost averaging into the market every single month without fail. The reason most people aren't building wealth isn't a lack of access. It's a lack of consistency. Buy, hold, repeat. Here's what I want you to walk away with. Five moves you can make right now. Calculate your buyback rate, which is your annual income divided by roughly 2000 hours, then stop spending time on anything below that number. Reprice at least one offer based on the value it delivers, not the hours it took you. Add one cash flowing asset this quarter, whether that's real estate, dividend stocks, or a digital product. Pick one platform, show up weekly for 90 days straight, no exceptions, and start building that audience flywheel. And start dollar cost averaging today, even if it's just a hundred bucks a month into an index fund. The automation takes the emotion out of it completely.

Entrepreneurs chase freedom, but most of them build themselves a harder job. John Lee Dumas breaks down what freedom really takes: discipline, systems, boundaries, and the courage to say no.   John Lee Dumas, founder of Entrepreneurs On Fire and author of The Common Path to Uncommon Success, joins Josh Zolin for an incredible conversation about freedom, discipline, and what most entrepreneurs misunderstand when they start building a business. JLD explains why entrepreneurship does not automatically create freedom. In fact, it often means trading one boss for hundreds or thousands: customers, clients, listeners, employees, and everyone else depending on the business. The real freedom comes later. After the team is built. After the systems are in place. After the processes are clear. After the entrepreneur stops being the bottleneck. Josh and JLD also talk about defining your perfect day, the role discipline plays in creating freedom, why early-stage entrepreneurs need to say yes, and why later-stage entrepreneurs need to get better at saying no. The most practical question from the episode: "Do I need to be doing this?" Underline the word "I." Because building a business is hard. Building a life that business actually supports is the real work. __ ► Download Your 90 Day ROI Playbook — A value packed free guide created by Josh Zolin that teaches you how to Multiply Your Profits with the Skills No One Trains  https://bitnw.academy/roiplaybook
