Podcast appearances and mentions of zach valenti

That's right - our old friends Eiffel and Hilbert are back with important news! There's a new audio fiction series called Hit Singles, created by Wolf 359 creator Gabriel Urbina and produced by Urbina, Sarah Shachat, and Zach Valenti! It's a romantic comedy all about friendship, love, the struggles of trying to make it in a big city, and loving music way too much. You can listen to the show over on Audible. If you have an Audible Plus membership, you can listen to it at no additional cost. (And if you still have a free trial, you can listen to it for free for 30 days.) Besides the show's three producers, you'll also hear Wolf 359 alumni Noah Masur, Zach Libresco, Michelle Agresti, and Mary Kate Wiles in the series. (As well as veterans from many of our sibling series, such as The Bright Sessions, Life With Leo(h), and 36 Questions!) It was a real labor of love, and we'd love to help it find as wide an audience as it can. So please check it out, and, if you love it as much as we think you will, please leave a rating and a review. Here is the official description for Hit Singles: From the creators of the hit audio drama Wolf 359 and with original music by Jeremy Warmsley comes a modern story about friendship, love, and chosen family starring Evangeline Young (Emergence), Nicholas Podany (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), Simone Policano (Blue Bloods), Julia Rehwald (Fear Street), Briggon Snow (Masters of Sex) and a full cast. A captivating listen perfect for fans of New Girl and High Fidelity. When struggling DJ Faith Adler comes to couch surf with her best friend Tori in NYC, she finds herself drawn into the world of Tori's eclectic friend group. Right from her chaotic first night, Faith's new friends take her under their wing and help her navigate the ups and downs of trying to make it as an artist in the big city. There's Tori, the bubbly one; Ginah, the high-strung but loyal one; Matt, the flirtatious one; and David, the cynical one. Tori and Ginah's apartment becomes a sanctuary where lasting bonds are forged over late nights, drink-filled conversations, impromptu dance parties, and the occasional Sense and Sensibility marathon. Falling in love definitely isn't part of Faith's plan, but that all changes when she meets David, a former law student (and current bartender) who has recently come to the conclusion that romance is for suckers and sworn it off altogether. From the moment they meet at a New Year's in the Summer party, their will-they-or-won't-they chemistry is electric. As Faith and David grow closer over whiskey-soaked nights and heart-to-heart talks on the fire escape, their flirtation deepens into something more meaningful. Are they friends? Lovers? Romantic partners? Casual sex acquaintances? The answer is, simultaneously, all and none of the above. Let the overthinking commence! With rich character development and an ensemble cast that feels like friends you've known forever, Hit Singles deftly balances comedy, romance, and poignant drama. It's a beautifully rendered celebration of the family we choose, the cities that choose us back, and the life-altering power of human connection. * * * Today's message features the sound effect UI Seatbelt Signal by newlocknew.

This is a crossover episode between The Amelia Project and Greater Boston, recorded live at The London Podcast Festival! What happens when these two fiction podcasts meet? Greater Boston acting legend Mark Whalberg hates fellow Greater Boston acting legend Matt Damon. One of the last things Mark Whalberg did before Matt Damon died was fistfight Matt Damon on a doomed, speeding train. But then Matt Damon sacrificed his life to save the passengers on that train. And so now Matt Damon is no more, but the memory of Matt Damon lives on. Now Matt Damon is not remembered as much more than merely an actor; he is Matt Damon, Transit Hero. And Mark Whalberg? He's known as just a survivor floundering in Matt Damon's shadow, which grows taller even in death. But Mark Whalberg has a plan. Mark Whalberg can die just like Matt Damon. Mark Whalberg is going to visit The Amelia Project to fake his own death and live on as someone who will receive the respect, accolades, and attention he righteously deserves. Dying and being reborn with the Amelia process will be Mark Whalberg's greatest role yet. Featuring Alan Burgon, Hemi Yeroham, Jeff Van Dreason, Alexander Danner, Felix Trench and Zach Valenti.

Hello Dear Listeners! It's Doug Eiffel.. also known Executive Producer and actor Zach Valenti here with a brief announcement. Wolf 359 has been finished for… oh man, almost four years now. When Gabriel and I first set out to make the show in early 2014, we were fresh out of film school and excited to tell big, ambitious stories… but without the means to do so in film or TV. But having grown up on a steady diet of radio plays and full-cast audiobooks, and seeing the success of modern audio fiction podcasts, we decided to try our hands at making movies for your ears.Several years and credit cards later, we were shocked by the groundswell of support of you, our amazing listeners. By the time we published the finale, the monthly Patreon funds completely reimbursed all our debt and allowed us to make more of the show than we ever dreamed of while paying everyone involved in the series a modest sum for their hard work.All the while, we've kept Wolf 359 completely ad free. While it took a long, long time for ads to even be an option, we felt it was important to keep the listening experience as uninterrupted as possible while we were actively publishing.Four years later, though, we see an opportunity to turn the modest sum we've been able to pay the people that made this series into a meaningful sum. We've never stopped looking for ways for all the talented humans responsible for Wolf 359 to share in its success. And with the series being downloaded more than ever, we feel that now is the time to run the great advertising experiment.And so, beginning on Wednesday, October 6th, you'll start to hear a minute or two of advertisements before the start and after the end of most episodes of Wolf 359. Some episodes may even contain mid-roll where we find an appropriate space for an ad break.We want to let you know this change is coming, and that the version of the feed you have now, much like the Hephaestus itself, is about to go through an overhaul. We also want you to know that we're running this experiment for one reason only: to get money into the hands of the amazing artists who worked on this show, both for their contributions to the series, and so they can all go make more amazing art in podcasting and beyond.If that's exciting to you, we'll be running a listener survey sometime in the next month and would really love your participation. It should only take about 5 minutes and will go a long way towards making this experiment a success. If you want to be notified when the survey is ready, just enter your email at www.wolf359.fm/survey and we'll drop you a line when it's hot off the press.And if you would like to help us do that and listen to the show without hearing any ads, well, the good news is: you can! Or… you will be able to real soon. We're working with Patreon to bring back our old creator page, where for just $1 a month, you will have access to an ad-free feed of Wolf 359. Keep an eye on this feed, as well as our Twitter page @Wolf359Radio for news on that front.Alright! That's all for now. As ever, thank you so much for listening.https://www.wolf359.fm/news/2021/10/5/the-great-advertising-experiment See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Hi there and welcome to the Stacks Podcast, I’m Zach Valenti. Today, we have a conversation between Jameson Lopp - former Bitcoin engineer, professional cypherpunk, and CTO at the key security company, Casa - and Muneeb Ali, the CEO of Blockstack PBC. Jameson and Muneeb cover a lot of ground here, starting with mining Bitcoin at home, moving on to the importance of personal privacy, delving into the quasi-religious in-fighting in the crypto space, and more. 0:00:41 Welcome. 0:00:57 Muneeb: "I bet you have some Bitcoin miners set up in your home as well." 0:01:03 Jameson: "I only ever mined on testnet." 0:01:15 Muneeb: "Speaking of miners, what do you think of these new consumer mining equipment companies?" 0:01:35 Jameson: "I like the idea at a high level." 0:02:09 Jameson: "Basically using your electricity bill as a way to receive crypto." 0:02:48 Muneeb: "From a purely 'can this be profitable?' perspective, there's no way." 0:03:32 Jameson: "I actually argue we should move to a model where most people are mining unprofitably as the best way to decentralize mining." 0:04:22 Muneeb: "If you look at the first wave of peer-to-peer networks, people would run peers without any incentives." 0:05:55 Jameson: "If we really want people to be running these Internet connected devices that need to have pretty good uptime... we need to figure out how to automate away as much of the boring IT aspects and really make a nice user interface." 0:06:24 Muneeb: "Operating your own node is one of those things that computer geeks would love to do it, but they're relatively only a small subset of the population." 0:06:44 Muneeb: "What's your current working theory on - let's say five to ten years from now - do you believe in a world where everything just converges to Bitcoin? Or do you see a world with more fragmentation?" 0:07:26 Jameson: "That's complicated." 0:08:58 Jameson: "We're going to have thousands of these cockroaches running around and continuing to exist, though they will probably not be as utilized as Bitcoin." 0:09:26 Muneeb: "When does a blockchain die?" 0:09:46 Jameson: "What's more interesting than whether some machines are running the protocol is whether people are using the protocol and maintaining it." 0:10:11 Jameson: "The example I like to use is dogecoin." 0:11:00 Muneeb: "I don't know about hundreds of useful tokens out there, but I can definitely imagine a handful, maybe tens of them." 0:11:37 Muneeb: "How do you see the Internet evolve, let's say five years from now, and how will the typical user interact with it?" 0:11:51 Jameson: "The real trade off between most of this is usability and security." 0:12:55 Jameson: "Perhaps the hardware will just start to be rolled out with your common, every day computing platforms." 0:13:30 Jameson: "The onus for a lot of this stuff to go really mainstream is going to be on the enterprises to basically build in defaults so people don't have to make a lot of choices." 0:14:41 Muneeb: "Let's say people start keeping twenty to thirty percent of their net worth in crypto tokens. That also means they start becoming targets as well." 0:14:58 Muneeb: "I love the article that came out in The New York Times that talked about how to disappear from the face of the earth, featuring you.” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/12/technology/how-to-disappear-surveillance-state.html 0:15:09 Muneeb: "What do you think about personal privacy?" 0:15:33 Jameson: "There are people who are 'being their own bank' and right now a lot of the criminals are still catching up to that." 0:16:32 Jameson: "What do we need to do? It needs to be like a herd immune defense." 0:17:46 Jameson: "There's probably even more complexities asking people to be their own bank than asking them to be a server administrator." 0:18:21 Muneeb: "Speaking of key management, what's the latest at Casa?" 0:18:35 Jameson: "Over the past few months we've been evolving our product lines. The original being Casa Keymaster." 0:20:48 Muneeb: "We have an early generation Casa node running in one of our conference rooms here." 0:21:32 Muneeb: "What does it look like we're focused on at Blockstack from the outside?" 0:21:48 Jameson: "From my perspective, it is another take on trying to decentralize as much of the Internet stack as possible." 0:22:23 Jameson: "There's a lot of pieces of the infrastructure that are actually a lot more fragile and brittle than we would like." 0:23:04 Jameson: "The idea that we can move back to a more decentralized platform, I think is going to make [the Internet] more robust." 0:23:45 Muneeb: "We will figure out the problems and computer science challenges at the infrastructure layer and then we want to give the right tools to the developers to build on top of that." 0:24:59 Jameson: "I'd actually be very interested to see a really decentralized social media app." 0:25:22 Jameson: "Today, I think we saw block.one announce they were releasing a new EOS social app, but to fix trolling and spam they will require government IDs for every account." https://www.coindesk.com/block-ones-new-social-media-site-will-do-identity-checks-for-every-user 0:25:52 Muneeb: "Are they thinking that all the data would be stored on the EOS blockchain? Last time I checked, their block producers were running out of disk space." 0:26:13 Jameson: "I saw something about $20 million dollars worth of RAM being purchased by some of the block producers." https://thecryptoreport.com/eos-leader-block-one-spends-20-million-on-ram-for-big-announcement-coming-on-june-1/ 0:26:24 Jameson: "It's almost like each one of these networks has their own ideology and personality and is willing to make different trade offs." 0:26:46 Muneeb: "In many ways these networks are valuable because of the community, because of all the believers..." 0:27:23 Muneeb: "... the entire industry is so small that you could argue the blue ocean is outside of our industry right now, and people should be externally focused, expanding the size of the market. Instead, we see a lot of in-fighting. Would love to hear your thoughts about it." 0:27:50 Jameson: "I agree on the idea that we should be expanding the size of the pie." 0:28:49 Jameson: "Part of it - at least on the Bitcoin side - there's at least a large number of the early adopters that are anti-authoritarian." 0:29:46 Muneeb: "Once these kind of wars started happening between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash and others, my reaction was 'I'm going to distance myself until this settles down.'" 0:30:08 Muneeb: "Do you feel like over time it's becoming more toxic or getting better?" 0:31:04 Jameson: "With the 50+ Bitcoin forks, pretty much everyone behind them started to try and improve Bitcoin and become the dominant player. When, ultimately, that doesn't happen, the question becomes 'how long will the supporters continue?'." 0:32:22 Jameson: "This is part of this system that is fascinating because it is the philosophical and ideological side." 0:32:55 Jameson: "A lot of the arguments that are happening are technical, but fundamentally the schism is ideological and it's about tradeoffs that people are willing to make." 0:33:57 Muneeb: "It was more contentious because everyone was trying to say 'this is the real Bitcoin' - they wanted the branding of Bitcoin to attract new users." 0:34:17 Jameson: "There is no authority that can define what Bitcoin is or what it should be." 0:34:51 Jameson: "It's hard to even describe how the definition of Bitcoin comes about because it's like trying to define how the definition of some colloquial word has come about." 0:35:18 Muneeb: "I find the analogy of religion super interesting here, not only because of the forks, but also because sometimes logic doesn't appeal to the die hard followers." 0:35:50 Muneeb: "I grew up in Pakistan and there were a lot of very religious people around me. And this is something I've noticed: I tend to gravitate towards logic, and reasoning, or engineering and science." 0:36:55 Jameson: "It's almost like a kind of fundamentalism people can fall into." 0:37:38 Muneeb: "My early memories of the Internet are of a very friendly community that was pro open-source and helpful to newcomers." 0:38:37 Jameson: "I'd be very interested in reading some historical works about the early Internet protocol wars. ... It was really hard for me to find anything, and maybe that's because history is written by the winners." 0:39:13 Muneeb: "One thing I can tell you about is this almost constant war between keeping the core of the network simple versus keeping the core of the network more complicated." 0:39:23 Muneeb: "That's kind of like the beginning of the end-to-end design principle by David Clarke, the chief protocol engineer of the Internet." http://web.mit.edu/Saltzer/www/publications/endtoend/endtoend.pdf 0:40:01 Muneeb: "Unix was a new concept." 0:40:19 Muneeb: "We're seeing that play out in blockchains as well." 0:40:57 Jameson: "We can make all the arguments we want... ultimately they're all going to have to play out." 0:41:36 Muneeb: "I notice you've done a bunch of work helping to educate beginners." 0:42:15 Jameson: "I think one of the most valuable things those of us who have been in it for a longtime can try to do is to distill the knowledge and lower the steepness of the learning curve to get into the system." 0:44:44 Muneeb: "I see that you have Bitcoin resources and then Lightning resources. Is there any other category you're thinking about adding if you had time in the future?" http://bitcoin.page http://lightning.how 0:44:54 Jameson: "It comes down to what people are asking me about the most." 0:45:48 Jameson: "I'm working on my next blog post / presentation right now where I'm trying to figure out what the unwritten rules of Bitcoin are." 0:46:21 Muneeb: "Personally, I'd be super interested in a section on personal security." 0:46:49 Jameson: "That is one of the dozen blog post drafts I'm working on right now." 0:47:16 Muneeb: "Switching topics, what's a more controversial opinion that you hold that you would think twice about before tweeting it out?" 0:47:27 Jameson: "The things that I have been self-censoring more frequently these days are some of the more libertarian viewpoints." 0:49:23 Jameson: "I think that we can try to be inclusive at least to the point of not being assholes to newcomers." 0:51:43 Muneeb: "It's good to see those discussions happen... that people are thinking about how inclusive are you really being in some of these ecosystems, which might end up impacting a very large population of the world if they're successful." 0:52:16 Jameson: "Very easy to find me because I'm the only Jameson Lopp in the world." http://lopp.net 0:52:43 Goodbyes. 0:52:55 Credits.

Dr. Bright makes a house call. Written by Gabriel Urbina. Performed by Julia Morizawa and Zach Valenti. Sound designed by Mischa Stanton. 

Well... it's been a while.  Can you believe almost a full year has gone by since the end of Wolf 359? Saying that feels very surreal to all of us at Kinda Evil Genius HQ. And lately a lot of people have been asking us: what has everyone on the cast and crew been working on lately?  Honestly? A lot of stuff. New audio dramas! New talk shows! Getting advanced degrees! Modeling! Adventures in the world of tech! Big writing projects! Experimental cross-media performance art! Landscape architecture! So! Much! Stuff! But seriously: when we stopped to take stock of how much cool work folks were doing, we thought it might nice to share the latest from the team with all of you. So fire up the old podcasting apps, and join Doug Eiffel himself, Zach Valenti, for a whirlwind update on what some of the cast and crew have been up to this year.

Please note: this episode contains discussions of violence and death. Listener discretion is advised. Episode 1 Most people hate working on New Years' Eve. Not Simon Teller. With six hours to go until the end of his shift and only three more jobs to go until he beats a coveted departmental record, he's only just starting to have a great time - and really annoy his coworkers. But when a situation arises that threatens to dampen Teller's mood, he'll have to decide whether he needs to change his approach, or whether he can continue cruising and still get through the night unscathed.  Cast & Crew Starring: Peter Coleman, Noah Masur, Mike Schubert, & Cecilia Lynn-Jacobs. Written by: Gabriel Urbina & Sarah Shachat.  Directed by: Gabriel Urbina.  Additional voices by: Zach Valenti. Recording by: Jared Paul. Produced by: Gabriel Urbina, Sarah Shachat, & Zach Valenti.

Please note: this episode contains discussions of violence and death. Listener discretion is advised. Episode 2 With four hours to go until the end of his shift, things are really starting to get serious now for bomb disposal technician Simon Teller. Desperate for a bomb, any bomb, to defuse so that he can beat the department record, Teller's obsession begins to threaten his working relationship with his colleagues, and also possibly his situational judgment. It's up for debate which one of those could be deadlier.  Cast & Crew Starring: Peter Coleman, Noah Masur, Mike Schubert, & Cecilia Lynn-Jacobs. Written by: Gabriel Urbina & Sarah Shachat.  Directed by: Gabriel Urbina.  Additional voices by: Zach Valenti. Recording by: Jared Paul. Produced by: Gabriel Urbina, Sarah Shachat, & Zach Valenti.

Please note: this episode contains discussions of violence and death. Listener discretion is advised. Episode 3 Only two hours and one more device stand between bomb disposal technician Simon Teller and the NYPD department record for most bombs defused in a year. However his more pressing concern is making sure that Mark Midland, his number two technician, isn't going to go off. It will require a very delicate hand to balance one more high-stakes call and getting Midland to chill out. Cast & Crew Starring: Peter Coleman, Noah Masur, Mike Schubert, & Cecilia Lynn-Jacobs.

The cultists are back with another episode! This week, Owen and Sarah get super upbeat and talk about the state of the environment, and the occult world's less than great reckoning with its impending doom. Owen's Audio also sounds better in this one. Theme song by Knifesex, Logo by The Sigilist, Produced by Zach Valenti

PopCvlt is a weekly comedy podcast about the intersection of The Occult and pop culture. On this, our first episode, Owen and Sarah sit down to talk about the Sephora "Witch Kit" controversy rocking the Occult world. What makes this stupid thing stupider than all the other stupid things out there? Are we all a little to blame for this stupid thing? And are you stupid for thinking yourself above this stupid thing, stupid? (yes) Theme song by Kinfesex, logo by The Sigilist, Produced by Zach Valenti

Emma is joined by mythology and podcasting guru Julia Schifini to discuss everyone's favorite goofy hunky Norse god, Thor! The general consensus is that whatever Thor would drink, he'd drink a lot of it (so we did). Julia is not only a mythology expert but also knows a ton about the Marvel comics, and enlightens Emma on how much better Natalie Portman's character was originally. Listen to hear us discuss gender politics, why mead fell out of fashion, and cheese! Plus: gender-queer Loki, Joss Whedon, iambic pentameter, New Zealand Chardonnay, Gaelic pronunciation, Kenneth Branagh v. Taika Waititi and Josh Dallas v. Zachary Levi, bad hammer puns, Jeff Goldblum, and Metheglin, the second in our wine-term turned Marvel villain.

Emma is joined by friend & collaborator Gabriel Urbina, the inestimable creator and head writer for Wolf 359, to discuss His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman. Gabriel explains why these are his favorite books of all time, and Emma gets excited to re-read them, as they discuss this "Hippie Acid Trip of a Book."

The Internet: the most impactful invention of modern human history. It has transformed the way that we talk with each other, do business, educate and learn - even the way we think. But how did we get here? What were the choices, the experiments, and, yes, even the moments of blind luck that created the Internet we use today? And, more importantly, who are the innovators and disruptors that are building what we will use next? Hosted by podcast personality Zach Valenti with guest hosts Ryan Shea and Muneeb Ali, co-founders of Blockstack, The Internet 3.0 brings you the stories of digital explorers on the frontier of decentralized protocols, cryptocurrencies, and other revolutionary technologies that are changing the face of the Internet forever.

Today's bonus content is an interview with the one and only Zach Valenti, star and co-producer of Wolf 359 (among many other things), who took on a cameo role as Merril in our last few episodes. This conversation was originally broadcast in May as part of Zach's ongoing "Self Care Sunday" livestream project. You can watch video of the interview here (Christian starts at right around hour 2), and subscribe to the channel at zach.live. Release of Chapter 3 is delayed slightly, for reasons explained at the head of the episode. We will announce release dates as soon as we can, and we're sorry for the delay! Hit the break for a full transcript of Christian's statement. Statement transcript: Hey everyone, Christian here. Got some more bonus content for you this week, and the reason for that is we're still waiting to see when we can release Chapter 3. You have our apologies for that. I'm sure this has been a really rough week for a lot of us what with the events in Charlottesville. Speaking personally - though I'm definitely angered and saddened and frightened - as a straight white guy living in New York City, these things tend not to hit me as viscerally as they might hit some of you. So I try to use that position of relative safety to hunker down and do what I can to help. That includes but is by no means limited to hopefully getting this show out in time for anyone who counts on it as a little spot of fun in their week. Unfortunately, in addition to everything else, Jess and I had a pet pass away this week, and being perfectly honest I wasn't really able to focus much on work. So in the interest of transparency, that's meant that editing is delayed on Chapter 3 and writing is delayed on Chapter 4. And I want to take just a moment to say for posterity that our rabbit Bebe was a sweet little spot of light and good in a world that too often lately feels dark and shitty. She was loved and will be very dearly missed. I know it’s a small thing in light of what everyone else is certainly feeling this week, dearly beloved though Bebe was. So I'll just add this, because I've been thinking about it a lot: The first words spoken in The Once And Future Nerd are "Imagine, if you can, what life is like for a rabbit." At the risk of saying the subtext out loud, that was us trying to p rime our audience to think about what it would be like to be much more vulnerable than they are. That's always been a core principle of the show. A lot of people are very vulnerable right now. Do what you can for them. Be excellent to each other. I hope that our fandom is a fairly wide tent. I'm glad we have writers who don't always agree with me. I hope we have fans who don't always agree with us. I want our show to affirm but I also want it to teach, and you can’t teach if everyone agrees. And right now with tensions running so high, I think those of us who are relatively safe could do better at having patient, good faith conversations with people whose views frustrate us. Having said that, if your stated belief is that some people are inherently inferior to you at birth, you have thereby forfeited your claim on patience and good faith. The Once And Future Nerd, as a project and an organization, is Black and Brown and Jewish and female and queer and disabled. Nazis and white supremacists and their ilk can fuck off, now and forever. And to be clear, because I don’t want it to seem like I’m just calling anyone I disagree with a Nazi, if you walk around next a Nazi flag saying Nazi shit like we should have a white ethnostate, you’re a fucking Nazi, and you can fuck off. End transcript.
