About this episode
In this episode, I chat with Paul Tarantino and John Burnett—two of the most dynamic Bitcoiners I know—about the hidden frameworks of power and consent that shape our world.
If you’re ready to step outside The Truman Show and see the matrix for what it really is, you won’t want to miss this mind-expanding conversation.
