Shane takes a look at the two films release on Jason Maier's 19th birthday in 1999. He takes a look at how both "Sleepy Hollow" and "The World is Not Enough" had terrible scripts, and while one of them was able to at least look visually brilliant, the other tried to use too much suspension of disbelief to make the film enjoyable.

A much needed pro bitcoin argument from a non-libertarian. Subtitled: a path toward a more just, equitable, and peaceful world. Maier addresses common criticisms from the left such as how Bitcoin "enables crime and is bad for the environment". He put's those arguments to bed, while also demonstrating that Bitcoin is explicitly anti-fascist and anti-racist. This is the most "progressive" tech ever invented.

"Special interest lobbying, sadly, is effective." - David Bailey "I wanted Bitcoin to be this bipartisan bridge." - Jason Maier My guests today are David Bailey and Jason Maier. David is Founder & CEO of BTC Inc (Bitcoin Magazine, the Bitcoin Conference, UTXO) and Jason is a teacher and author of “A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin.” This debate, that serves more as an open discussion, delves into the controversial realm where Bitcoin intersects with US politics, focusing on Donald Trump's recent campaigning around Bitcoin, and the support it has garnered from some industry leaders in the Bitcoin space. We explore the potential implications of this alliance on Bitcoin adoption, international perceptions, and the challenges of reconciling political ideologies with Bitcoin advocacy. As a single issue voter around Bitcoin, David is a staunch supporter of Donald Trump who has appeared more open and supportive of Bitcoin compared to the Biden campaign, while Jason and I share concerns about the potential ramifications of endorsing politicians in this manner.

Happy New Year everyone, it's good to be back after a brief hiatus! What better way to kick off the new year than with my friend Jason Maier. Jason is a returning guest, High School Math teacher, Bitcoin educator, and author of “A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin.”In this episode we discuss Bitcoin's opportunities and challenges in 2024 - from mainstream adoption with a possible Bitcoin ETF to political unknowns with the next presidential election. We talk about whether hyperbitcoinization is likely to happen and when, and why Bitcoin is not inevitable without strong grassroots education and adoption efforts. Jason also shares his firsthand experience discussing and "orange pilling" his local community on Bitcoin. It was great to have Jason on in the midst of his sabbatical from teaching, as he reflects on this past year and the year ahead that is filled with more time for family, and more time for bitcoin education. One thing is for certain: it's likely to be a very eventful and unpredictable year.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfPO1xRk2fY Follow Jason on X and nostrYou can find Trey on nostr and via the pod's social channelsSPONSORS:BitBox: My favorite bitcoin hardware wallet for keeping your bitcoin safe in cold storage.

My guest today is Bradley Rettler. Bradley is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Wyoming and a member of the research collective Resistance Money alongside Andrew Bailey and Craig Warmke. In this episode we discuss how Bitcoin connects to progressive values like privacy, freedom, economic justice and inclusion. We also discuss Bitcoin's potential for marginalized groups, protesting authoritarian regimes, campaign finance reform, reproductive rights, philosophy, critical thinking, renewable energy, and Bitcoin's independence from government control. Bradley is one of my favorite people to talk to about Bitcoin and how it can intersect with the real world and these things we as progressives really care about, and I couldn't be more excited for "Resistance Money" the book to be published in the coming months, which we will keep you all posted on. https://www.resistance.money/ https://www.resistance.money/book/ Bradley Rettler twitter: https://twitter.com/rettlerb Trey Walsh https://nostree.me/Trey@progressivebitcoiner.com SPONSOR: BitBox: Use promo-code TPB during checkout to get 5% off your purchase: https://bitbox.swiss/tpb Sazmining: Get $50 off the purchase of a miner using the following link: https://app.sazmining.com/purchase?ref=tpb Sazmining is a Hosted Bitcoin Mining provider with a commitment to using 100% renewable energy for your mining operation.

My guest today is Mike Brock, CEO of TBD, (a part of Block), which focuses on building open source, decentralized technologies. In this wide-ranging conversation, Mike discusses Bitcoin's relationship to politics, culture, and decentralization. He argues against simplistic views of Bitcoin as an all-encompassing solution and for nuance over maximalism. We discuss Bitcoin as a tool, the risks of centralization, using Bitcoin to advance liberal democracy and human freedom, romantics v skeptics, and more. I really enjoy Mike's perspectives, passion for optimism and philosophy, and commitment to decentralized tech. Are we as divided as we think? Mike doesn't seem to think so, and feels we are more united and bipartisan in many ways than people, especially on social media, will have us think. https://www.tbd.website/ Mike Brock twitter: https://twitter.com/brockm Trey Walsh https://nostree.me/Trey@progressivebitcoiner.com SPONSOR: BitBox: Use promo-code TPB during checkout to get 5% off your purchase: https://bitbox.swiss/tpb Sazmining: Get $50 off the purchase of a miner using the following link: https://app.sazmining.com/purchase?ref=tpb Sazmining is a Hosted Bitcoin Mining provider with a commitment to using 100% renewable energy for your mining operation.

Today I am joined by Anita Posch. Anita is a renowned Bitcoin educator, author, and founder of Bitcoin for Fairness, a non-profit initiative raising awareness and understanding of Bitcoin for people in emerging countries and for disadvantaged communities. Anita also has a new online platform we discuss, “Crack the Orange,” A scholarship program for aspiring educators and builders in the Global South to foster knowledge and boost Bitcoin adoption. In addition to all these things she's been busy working on, we discuss the importance of bitcoin for marginalized communities and how bitcoin enables freedom for all through permissionless and borderless access. We discuss stories of people using bitcoin to escape authoritarian regimes, gain financial freedom, and overcome obstacles from the legacy financial system and how bitcoin has the potential to unite people across borders, genders, and ideologies if the community focuses on bitcoin's humanitarian benefits over politics. https://anitaposch.com/ https://bffbtc.org/ https://my.cracktheorange.com/ Anita Posch nostr: https://primal.net/p/npub1tjkc9jycaenqzdc3j3wkslmaj4ylv3dqzxzx0khz7h38f3vc6mls4ys9w3 Twitter: https://twitter.com/AnitaPosch Trey Walsh Nostr: https://primal.net/p/npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 Twitter: https://twitter.com/ktreywalsh SPONSOR: BitBox: Use promo-code TPB during checkout to get 5% off your purchase: https://bitbox.swiss/tpb Sazmining: Get $50 off the purchase of a miner using the following link: https://app.sazmining.com/purchase?ref=tpb Sazmining is a Hosted Bitcoin Mining provider with a commitment to using 100% renewable energy for your mining operation.

Today we are joined by Ayelen Osorio. Ayelen is a human rights/financial freedom advocate and shares stories, interviews, and writings on this through her newsletter “Notes from the Margin.” Ayelen brings fresh and much needed perspective and stories to the bitcoin and financial freedom space, focusing on marginalized communities and freedom. In her own words, “I believe that within marginalized communities exists an enormous untapped potential – that when unleashed through economic and financial empowerment will uplift the world in ways we can't imagine.” I have no doubt you'll continue to hear more from Ayelen through her own work, interviews on other podcasts, and conferences around the world.

Today we are joined by Justin Rhedrick, aka Bitcoin Vegan. Justin is an author, has been involved with education projects with Black Bitcoin Billionaires, and is the co-founder and Executive Director of Bitcoin Transformation Community, a nonprofit focused on education, advocacy and workforce development, with a particular focus on going into US correctional facilities to identify and educate people incarcerated to develop the skills necessary to work within the bitcoin ecosystem upon release. Justin himself, as you'll hear from in this podcast and others, was formerly incarcerated and knows first hand the challenges these folks face in re-entry, employment, and life. Justin's heart and passion for bringing practical bitcoin education and tools to everyday people in the United States is undeniable, and we'll do everything we can to support this project. If you're a bitcoin business looking to hire, especially in mining, get in touch with Justin for access to an incredible talent pipeline.

Today we are joined by Farida Nabourema, citizen of Togo and human rights and pro-democracy activist. We discuss the history of Togo, authoritarian regimes, the CFA Franc colonial currency used in Togo and other African states, the human rights movement, bitcoin, activism, women's rights, and more. Farida has been one of my favorite guests, because through her advocacy, work, and brilliance in speaking and writing, she is showing the world the importance of resistance and pro-democracy movements, and the importance of technology like bitcoin as an alternative to the present currency that is used to fund citizens' repression.

Jason Maier is the author of A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin: A Path Toward a More Just, Equitable, and Peaceful World. The book introduces Bitcoin to a progressive audience focussed primarily on the United States. Jason talks about how Bitcoin can actually help bring about positive social change, and he also dispels some of the common misconceptions about Bitcoin that would otherwise slow adoption among those who need it most. I talk to Jason about what “progressive” means for him, the relevancy of political labels and tribalism in a digital world, and how Bitcoin can be understood from a New Zealand perspective.

Taimur is very thoughtful in his approach to these very nuanced topics and takes care to look at all angles.

Today we are joined by former Governor of New York, David Paterson. Governor Paterson is an American politician and member of the Democratic Party who was the 55th governor of New York, succeeding Eliot Spitzer and serving out nearly three years of Spitzer's term from March 2008 to the end of 2010 following Spitzer's resignation. Governor Paterson has made history as the first legally blind governor in the nation, and the first African American Governor of New York. I was most interested in having Governor Paterson on the show to discuss his time as governor of New York during the Great recession. He did not disappoint…His candor, storytelling, humor, and openness to technologies like Bitcoin made this one of my favorite conversations. It was also refreshing to hear from a Democratic politician who is open to bitcoin and the ideas it represents as a tool to utilize in the face of a system that, “clearly isn't working” in his words.

Today we are joined by Jason Maier, High School Math teacher and author of "A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin". We get into his book, imagining a different system and way of thinking about things, speaking to progressives about bitcoin and his journey as a life-long learner and educator, and more. I think Jason has written one of the best introductory books on Bitcoin that can engage anyone, but especially those from the political left. He does incredible work educating people about bitcoin and how it is not antithetical to progressive values, but rather folks may find bitcoin aligns very well with many of their progressive values. Be sure to get a copy of Jason's book (referral link below) if you haven't already!

Today we are joined by Marce Romero who is a marketing professional and journalist from The Nostr Report. While this show is focused on bitcoin, one of my favorite things to talk about is Nostr, with its emphasis on decentralized, censorship-resistant communications. It is already shaking up the landscape of social media, and that's just the beginning. We discussed nostr, journalism and freedom globally, privilege in western nations, bitcoin adoption, the politicization of things, and more.

Today we are joined by Jameson Lopp - privacy expert, technologist, cypherpunk, co-founder and CTO of Casa, and more. Jameson is a guru in all things privacy and building tools that empower individuals. This was a rich conversation about privacy, self-sovereignty, Jameson's experience disappearing into ultimate privacy after a swatting experience, the future of technologies like bitcoin, nostr, and more. I think these types of conversations are really important for folks to begin to understand, and how folks on the left who value human freedom and humanitarian issues may see the value in these tools and methods that empower and protect individuals.

Today we are joined by Margot Paez, climate change physicist and fellow at the Bitcoin Policy Institute. Margot has a lot of wisdom on politics of the left, the occupy movement, journalism, freedom, doing the right thing in life, bitcoin and the environment and so much more. As one of the orginal core members of progressives in bitcoin, Margot remembers when this podcast first started and was an integral part of encouraging and support The Progressive Bitcoiner. This one is for the progressive bitcoiners, the left of center folks who are skeptical of bitcoin, and those on the right who may be skeptical of the left, and the rich history of libertarianism and anarchism from the left.

von Jason Maier – Originaltitel: “Bitcoin Doesn't Care About Progressives, But You Should” “Ich bin der festen Überzeugung, dass das Geheimnis unseres kollektiven Erfolges nicht darin liegt, die Politiker an der Macht davon zu überzeugen, dass Bitcoin eine Kraft für das Gute ist, sondern darin, die Bürger weiterzubilden, die für diese Politiker stimmen. Wir haben immer noch eine Chance, dies zu tun.” (Jason Maier) Wie schon in Episode #60 geht es auch in dieser Vorlesung um das scheinbar so schwierige Verhältnis der politischen Linken und Bitcoin. Der Autor trifft in seinem Text einen guten Punkt: Wenn wir alle möglichst hohe Adoption von Bitcoin sehen wollen, dann wird das nicht gehen, ohne der politischen Linken zu helfen, Bitcoin in seinem Potenzial besser zu verstehen und ihr zu zeigen, dass gerade zur Verwirklichung klassisch „linker“ Ziele – etwa wenn es um Integration der Schwächsten in der Gesellschaft geht, um Gleichberechtigung und um soziale, finanzielle und bildungsmäßige Chancen -, Bitcoin eigentlich ihr bester Verbündeter sein sollte. Ich fand das einen interessanten und sehr überzeugenden Text, und ich hoffe, er gefällt auch Euch. Die zahlreichen, im Text und meiner Nachbesprechung verlinkten Texte findest Du wie immer auf unserer Seite zu dieser Episode: https://www.BitcoinAudible.de/linke-bitcoin2/ Vergesst nicht, diesen Podcast all jenen zu empfehlen, die sich für Bitcoin interessieren: helft ihnen, Bitcoin von einem starken monetären, wirtschaftlichen und philosophischen Fundament aus zu erkunden.

Jason Maier is a teacher and the author of ‘A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin'. In this interview, we discuss the importance of teaching money and Bitcoin in schools, the future of education in the shadow of AI, and the challenges of having a public persona. We also talk about the feedback Jason has received since publishing his book and Bitcoin's potential to bring people together. - - - - It is a common feature of any orange pilling exercise that most people are blissfully ignorant of the inherent weakness and structurally unjust nature of the monetary system. And yet, school curriculums are shockingly devoid of requiring schools to provide even rudimentary information on how economies, money and individuals interact. We are a financially illiterate generation. Then there is the impact of technological changes on students. AI is rapidly changing the world in ways forecasters are struggling to predict. It is obvious that most schools aren't equipping students to enter a world of constant technological revolution. A world in which Bitcoin may play a significant role. Therefore, as the world continues to evolve, the need for education that prepares students for the future is becoming increasingly essential. Students are generally receptive to new ideas and have the agility in being able to develop the skills required to exploit new opportunities opened up by technology. The issue is with the conservative nature of the education system, which in turn is heavily influenced by biases and misconceptions. In this podcast, Jason Maeir shares his experiences in educating students about Bitcoin, and the influence of the emerging properties of AI upon education. There is a fundamental need to change educational principles away from rote learning (i.e. knowing stuff) to developing more holistic skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving and creativity. These have been traditionally seen as ‘soft skills', but they are in fact the bridge between technology and humans. The goal is to improve productivity and intelligence in a society that is more equal and fair. And it all starts with improving our education.
“If the book is successful, then it's not needed in the future, because we don't need a progressives case for Bitcoin in a perfect world. People feel comfortable learning and understanding and welcomed into a community without needing this resource. So that's the goal.”— Jason MaierJason Maier is a teacher and the author of ‘A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin'.

This week, President Biden ratcheted up the partisanship around Bitcoin when he tweeted that Republicans were trying to protect tax loopholes for wealthy crypto investors. Congressman Brad Sherman has been all over TV saying that the industry is just for tax evaders and criminals. Elizabeth Warren is making opposition to crypto a central pillar of her campaign. Yet as much as the partisan bickering tries to capture Bitcoin, some progressive voices are pushing back. Jason Maier is the author of "A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin" and he's on a mission to help people understand how Bitcoin aligns with and can help achieve core goals of the left as well - including fairness, equality of opportunity and more.

NTFs on the Bitcoin blockchain is on the rise. Millions of dollars worth of crypto pour into Turkey for aid relief after devastating earthquakes. The FTX collapse continues to unfold, as we await Sam Bankman Fried's trial, scheduled for October 2023. All the while, the number of bitcoin blocks left until the next halving continues to decrease approximately every 10 minutes. On today's episode, we speak to American Math Teacher Jason Maier. Jason has come to the realization there is a gap in Bitcoin education from the perspective of a liberal, a progressive, or a leftist-minded person. Jason is currently working on a book entitled "A Progressive's Case For Bitcoin," with a foreword written by Peter McCormack. Jason is extremely eloquent and offers a different perspective from the usual Bitcoin anarchist.

My guest today is Jason Maier. Jason is a secondary school math teacher, who after learning about Bitcoin, realized its potential for aiding in progressive values.

We cover: Jason's journey into Bitcoin and why mathematics helped establish his conviction. Why is he writing a book about the progressive case for Bitcoin The details of his book and why he chose the topics he did How to teach Bitcoin Why is he focusing on Bitcoin only Our call to action https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cjasonmaier/a-progressives-case-for-bitcoin @cjasonmaier We are incredibly grateful to partner with the Sun Exchange.

Jason Maier is a teacher and progressive Bitcoiner. In this interview, we discuss his inspiration for writing a book setting out his case, as a progressive, for Bitcoin. The public narrative and FUD around Bitcoin are antithetical to progressives, yet, its utility is aligned with progressive ideals. - - - - Bitcoin should be a broad church. The original cypherpunks philosophy was predicated on anarchist ideals, to work outside of government controls. This attitude is analogous to a wide variety of political philosophies, including those on the left who feel disenfranchised by the current global capitalist hegemony. And yet, Bitcoin has historically been viewed as being antithetical to progressives. The mainstream narrative is that Bitcoiners are predominantly libertarian, with explicit views on the need to reduce the size of the state, the coercive nature of taxation, and the importance of self-reliance. In addition, there is significant criticism about the environmental harm being done by Bitcoin mining through its energy demands. Given our polarised society, it's not surprising that progressives are immediately turned off. And yet, there has been a marked increase in the number of progressive voices entering the community over the past few years. These people have risen to prominence given their impassioned and articulate advocacy for Bitcoin. It is a new wave of orange-pilled adoption that has identified broad utility that is aligned to, rather than being at odds with, progressive ideals. Whether it's that Bitcoin is providing sovereignty and security to marginalized communities, that Bitcoin acts as a constraint to unfettered government economic power, or that Bitcoin is actually enabling market-driven solutions to environmental issues - there are many obvious fact-based reasons why progressives should be enthused by the application of Satoshi's innovation. The reason why the increase in left-leaning adoption hasn't turned into a flood is in part due to education. There are a limited number of resources available to those starting on their Bitcoin journey. This is where people like Jason Maier hope to make a difference. Material written by a progressive will provide an authentic message specifically tailored to this audience. This should be exciting for all Bitcoiners. If Bitcoin is to become global money we need as wide an audience as possible to see value in it.
