Podcasts about self sufficiency

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Harry McKay Roper, founder of Imaginary Space, for a wide-ranging conversation on space mining, AI-driven software, crypto's incorruptible potential, and the raw entrepreneurial energy coming out of Argentina. They explore how technologies like Anthropic's Claude 4.5, programmable crypto protocols, and autonomous agents are reshaping economics, coding, and even law. Harry also shares his experiences building in Buenos Aires and why hunger and resilience define the city's creative spirit. You can find Harry online at YouTube, Twitter, or Instagram under @HarryMcKayRoper.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop welcomes Harry McKay Roper from Imaginary Space and they jump straight into space mining, Helium-3, and asteroid gold. 05:00 – They explore how Bitcoin could hold value when space mining floods markets and discuss China, America, and global geopolitics. 10:00 – Conversation shifts to Argentina, its economic scars, cultural resilience, and overrepresentation in startups and crypto. 15:00 – Harry reflects on living in Buenos Aires, poverty, and the city's constant hustle and creative movement. 20:00 – The focus turns to AI, Claude 4.5, and the rise of autonomous droids and software-building agents. 25:00 – They discuss the collapse of SaaS, internal tools, and Harry's experiments with AI-generated code and new workflows. 30:00 – Stewart compares China's industry to America's software economy, and Harry points to AI, crypto, and space as frontier markets. 35:00 – Talk moves to crypto regulation, uncorruptible judges, and blockchain systems like Kleros. 40:00 – They debate AI consciousness, embodiment, and whether a robot could meditate. 45:00 – The episode closes with thoughts on free will, universal verifiers, and a playful prediction market bet on autonomous software.Key InsightsSpace and Economics Are Colliding – Harry McKay Roper opens with the idea that space mining will fundamentally reshape Earth's economy. The discovery of asteroids rich in gold and other minerals highlights how our notions of scarcity could collapse once space resources become accessible, potentially destroying the terrestrial gold economy and forcing humanity to redefine value itself.Bitcoin as the New Standard of Value – The conversation naturally ties this to Bitcoin's finite nature. Stewart Alsop and Harry discuss how the flood of extraterrestrial gold could render traditional stores of value meaningless, while Bitcoin's coded scarcity could make it the only incorruptible measure of worth in a future of infinite resources.China and the U.S. in Industrial Tug-of-War – They unpack the geopolitical tension between China's industrial dominance and America's financial hegemony. Harry argues the U.S. is waking up from decades of outsourcing, driven by China's speed in robotics and infrastructure. This dynamic competition, he says, is good—it forces America to build again.Argentina's Culture of Hunger and Resilience – Living in Buenos Aires reshaped Harry's understanding of ambition. He contrasts Argentina's hunger to survive and create with the complacency of wealthier nations, calling the Argentine spirit one of “movement.” Despite poverty, the city's creative drive and humor make it a living example of resilience in scarcity.AI Is Making Custom Software Instant – Harry describes how Claude 4.5 and new AI coding tools like Lovable, Cursor, and GPT Engineer make building internal tools trivial. Instead of using SaaS products, companies can now generate bespoke software in minutes with natural language, signaling the end of traditional software development cycles.Crypto and AI Will Merge Into Incorruptible Systems – Harry envisions AI agents on-chain acting as unbiased judges or administrators, removing human corruption from law and governance. Real-world tools like Kleros, founded by an Argentine, already hint at this coming era of algorithmic justice and decentralized decision-making.Consciousness and the Limits of AI – The episode closes on a philosophical note: can a robot meditate or clear its mind? Stewart and Harry question whether AI could ever experience consciousness or free will, suggesting that while AI may mimic thought, the uniquely subjective and embodied nature of human awareness remains beyond automation—for now.

Preaching: Mike RothIf the Bible isn't a rule book or a clear-cut moral guide for every decision that we need to make, how do we go about discerning what is good? Perhaps you're in the midst of making a big decision, or perhaps you wrestle with knowing how to discern what's best when making decisions, or perhaps, as you've come to realize that the Bible doesn't definitively direct particular judgments that you need to make about life and godliness, you're looking for a thoughtful way to make wise decisions. If any of these statements speak to where you're at, then we're hopeful that this sermon series, centering around a series of questions to guide our discernment, will inform, support, and encouragement your flourishing, especially now, when discerning goodness is increasingly important.Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love. A primary expression of our sacred story is the weekly sermon. If our sermons inspire you to ponder the sacred, to consider the mystery and love of God, and to live bountifully, would you consider supporting our work?

Are you truly preparing yourself—and your family—for the future? Or are you following traditional paths like college and career that may actually be leaving you vulnerable?Today's guest, Matt Smith, is an American entrepreneur and economic commentator who walked away from convention to build a resilient life. Now based in Uruguay running a regenerative cattle ranch, he co-hosts Doug Casey's Take podcast, publishes the Crisis Investing newsletter, and just co-authored The Preparation: How to Become Competent, Confident, and Dangerous with Doug Casey and his 20-year-old son.In this conversation, Matt shares how to become truly self-reliant in uncertain times—covering education, economics, and the timeless virtues that build competence and confidence. If you've ever wondered how to thrive, not just survive, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.Quotes:“Real confidence only comes through competency. When you become good at anything, even just one thing, it becomes a beachhead you can build on.” “You are the average of the five closest people around you. Choosing those people consciously is really critical, and makes all the difference.” “The environment is going to create different desires in you. Humans look to other humans to figure out what they want.” Actionable Takeaways:Question the Default Path: Ask yourself, Am I pursuing this career, degree, or lifestyle because I chose it—or because culture told me to? Write down what you truly want versus what you've been conditioned to want.Design Your Peer Environment: Evaluate the five people you spend the most time with. Do they push you toward competence, confidence, and independence—or keep you stuck in mediocrity? Make one intentional change this week.Lower Your Time Preference: Practice delaying gratification. Instead of chasing short-term comfort, invest time, money, or effort into something that will make you stronger in 5–10 years.Build Competence in One Area: Pick a skill—physical, financial, or intellectual—and commit to deliberate practice. Confidence flows from demonstrated competence.Create Your Personal Code: Draft a short written set of principles (3–5 lines) that define who you are and the kind of man or woman you want to become. Revisit it weekly.ConclusionIn a world where uncertainty is the only guarantee, Matt Smith reminds us that true preparation isn't about credentials or checking boxes—it's about becoming the kind of person who can adapt, lead, and thrive no matter what comes. Competence, confidence, and resilience don't happen by accident; they're built through intentional choices, delayed gratification, and surrounding yourself with the right people and principles.The challenge is simple yet profound: Are you preparing to merely survive, or to live with strength, independence, and purpose? The time to start building that future is now.

To keep you motivated in your aim of a simpler lifestyle, you need to keep yourself provided with inspiration, direction, new ideas, and new ways to live. This episode discusses how to stop cherry picking, and how to start gold mining.

While it may sound off-putting, the truth that God doesn’t need us is actually wonderfully heartening. God’s self-sufficiency means He depends on nothing for His existence or happiness, enabling Him to love us in perfect freedom rather than from necessity.

Salum Abdul-Rahman: The SECI Model of Knowledge Management Applied to Team Retrospectives Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Salum explains how the key role for Scrum Masters is to help teams develop themselves to the point where they can learn and grow without constant guidance. Success means building team resilience and operational capability while knowing when to step back. He emphasizes the importance of recalibration workshops to maintain shared understanding and the balance between supporting teams and challenging them to become self-sufficient. When teams reach this level of maturity, Scrum Masters can focus their efforts elsewhere, knowing the team has developed the capability to continue evolving independently. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: The 5-Stage Retro Format From the book "Agile Retrospectives," this format captures the complete learning process and aligns beautifully with knowledge management principles. Salum connects the three central phases of this format to the SECI model of knowledge management, particularly referencing Nonaka and Takeuchi's work in "The Knowledge Creating Company." This retrospective structure helps teams create new knowledge and behavioral change by following a systematic approach that transforms individual insights into collective team learning and action. In this segment, we also refer to the seminal article by Takeuchi and Nonaka: “The New New Product Development Game”, which originated the work on Scrum as a framework.  Self-reflection Question: How do you recognize when your team has developed enough self-sufficiency that your role as facilitator can evolve or step back? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Let's pull back the curtain on a topic that doesn't get talked about nearly enough—the stigma of homemade. Somewhere along the way, store-bought became the gold standard, and handmade got tucked into the corner with a polite smile and a “Well, bless your heart.” But homemade isn't second-best—it's soulful, intentional, and brimming with meaning.Join me on the porch as we chat about how homemade got a bad rap, why it deserves a revival, and how each stitch, stir, and scribble we make is a quiet act of love.

This is message 21 in The Power of God's Name Genesis 4:16-5:32 The descendants of Cain built a society that advanced in culture but drifted far from God, marked by rebellion, pride, and self-sufficiency. In contrast, the line of Seth began to call upon the name of the Lord, openly declaring their dependence on Him. This contrast reveals the spiritual divide between those who live without God and those who walk in faith, showing that true hope and redemption are found only when people humbly turn to the Lord and identify themselves with Him.

Teaching from the Word of God.

Saudi Arabia had long known that it had a weakness: Food. Seeking to end its dependency on food imports, Saudi Arabia in 1980 embarked on a massive self-sufficiency program fueled by oil money and fossil water. That program eventually focused on a single water thirsty crop: Wheat. Things got a bit out of control. In the mid-1980s and early 1990s, Saudi Arabia pumped more groundwater than oil. And 5% of the entire 1991 Saudi budget was being spent on growing more wheat than anyone can eat. In today's video, a noble policy with long-running water consequences.

What happens when life throws you a devastating curveball? For Kody and her family, her husband's end-stage liver disease diagnosis with just one year to live became the catalyst for a complete lifestyle transformation. They sold everything, bought a farm, and began growing their own food—a decision that ultimately led to his liver fully healing eight years later.This conversation takes us deep into the intersection of homesteading and homeschooling, revealing how one family found purpose, health, and a thriving business by reconnecting with traditional skills. Kody shares candidly about their journey from thinking "we don't want to spend all day with our children" to creating an integrated life where education happens naturally through meaningful work. Her story of watching her once-struggling son thrive outside traditional education—eventually becoming a $50/hour foreman at age 20—challenges conventional thinking about learning and success.As founder of Homestead Education, Kody created curriculum that's now used in five countries after discovering a surprising gap in agricultural education resources. "Food is literally humanity's most driving force, and yet nobody knows how to do it," she explains, describing how her materials blend agriculture, science, and home economics for all ages. From raising heritage pigs to managing a micro-dairy, her family demonstrates how developing self-sufficiency skills creates resilience and purpose beyond what conventional systems offer.Whether you're curious about homesteading, considering homeschooling, or simply interested in more sustainable living, this episode offers practical wisdom and inspiration.
