So, I've been listening a long time. Its kind of stopped being interesting, and fallen back to a theme of glorifying social and mental dysfunction. It's like listening to a friend that complains endlessly. Exhausting.

Progressively less curious topics, progressively more paywalled content, progressively less fun to listen to, and progressively more choked with ads. No longer a must listen show, instead it has been enshittified like everything else.

This podcast has so much potential but there are exciting mistakes everywhere. Sentences that just cut off suddenly and bits that repeat for no reason. There are also far too many intrusive ads.

This is an absolute gem of a podcast, rivaling the best in terms of narrative storytelling and production quality. You don't even have to have any particular interest in the specific subject matter (crypo, meh) to enjoy it all the same.

Excellent work

Even if you don't necessarily care at all about the subject matter (crypto, in this case), the production and storytelling chops are so good, you really need to give this a listen.
