decentralization

The roles are switched in this episode where Rob is interviewed on viral podcast The CEOCAST. Rob talks about his journey from being £50k in debt at age 25 to owning hundreds of properties and running a multi-million pound training business today. He shares his disruptive views on money, business, and society, with thought-provoking opinions on topics ranging from conspiracy theories to the banking system to lockdowns. If you want to break out of the "matrix", this raw, rapid-fire chat is essential listening.

Rob Reveals:

• The conspiracy theories he believes to be true
• The aims of globalisation
• How to make yourself rich by becoming a creator
• Why bitcoin and entrepreneurship are forms of rebellion
• The reality of banks
• Why COVID lockdowns were an immoral
• Why and how to beat inflation

BEST MOMENTS

"There are about 13 families that run the world"

"If I had their control, I would take it and use it."

"When you can control policy and money and you have the power to do that, why wouldn’t you do that?"

"If shit gets really bad, which is surely the stupidest thing to do because it could take 10 or 20 years."

"Two biggest challenges: not believing I’m good enough and lockdown - both my fault ultimately."

Layoffs are hitting newsrooms and publishers again, as tech platforms, ad markets and artificial intelligence reshape the internet. Kevin Roose and Casey Newton have ideas for solutions. Then, one of the most influential investors in crypto companies lays out where the industry went wrong, and why he still thinks blockchains are the future. And finally, a round of HatGPT with the week’s tech headlines, including a spicy LinkedIn post and an A.I. test that disturbs Kevin and Casey’s sense of reality.

Today’s guest:

Chris Dixon, partner at Andreessen Horowitz

It’s been almost two weeks since several investment products tied to bitcoin started trading on old-school financial markets. These bitcoin ETFs have made it easier for everyday investors to place bets on the crypto market, and in the days since federal regulators gave the green light, investors have poured nearly $2 billion into the new bitcoin funds. But probably not the crypto purists, says Joel Khalili, who reports on the industry for Wired. Marketplace’s Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Khalili about crypto early adopters, who, he says, are quite happy to stay on the fringes of the financial system.

As Trump is booted from the Colorado ballot in the name of saving democracy, have seven years of Trump-fuelled panic attacks fed into dangerous liberal delusions about the state of the union, and is Alex Jones right when he says fear of domestic war fuels more government overreach?

• That there is no real rule of law
• Her thoughts on the COVID inquiry
• Why cash payments represent freedom and rebellion
• The death of the NHS
• What she thinks of Russell Brand, Prince Harry and Andrew Tate
• Why entrepreneurship thrives when people are free from overbearing government regulations and taxes

• Why adding comedy helps Katie discuss controversial opinions

BEST MOMENTS

"Kids are really overrated”

"You have to allow people to put labels on you. And allow them to sit there."

"There's not enough naughty now either, no, I'd agree."

"Because COVID happened and they shut our business down and I wasn't just going to roll over and go, oh, okay."

"If you worked for the government, you were going to get your salary and you were going to sit in your garden."

"Cash is freedom. And that's rebellion."

"The more that you endeavour...the more that you sweat...the more you find your path."

"When you apply comedy, you can say stuff you couldn't otherwise say."

In today’s episode, we welcome a U.S. presidential candidate who just rolled out a pro-crypto policy. This is the first one we’ve seen. His name is Vivek Ramaswamy and he plans to protect these three core crypto freedoms: Plank 1 - Freedom to Code, Plank 2 - Freedom of Financial Self Reliance, and Plank 3 - Freedom from Regulatory Overreach.

Vivek Ramaswamy is a 38-year-old Republican presidential candidate. He’s an entrepreneur, he’s worked in finance, he talks a lot about freedom - most importantly, he’s brought us a new policy platform on crypto, that if elected - he will implement. That’s why we’re doing the show today.
