Show notes & video don’t seem to match (?). Video link says Episode 3083.

=) So if you’re confused, might want to search for Episode 3098 on the tube.

Jack ~repeatedly~ promised to offend everyone in this episode.

I listened to this episode from start to finish and was not offended.

And because of that, I am offended.

Well played, Sir. Well played.

On the drought. I’m a native Californian, currently living in Appalachia. I visited CA last summer for a funeral.

I have NEVER seen CA that dry, not even in the 70s. It was so dry the old oak trees were dying.

The orchards in the southern part of the central valley were mostly dead sticks, with clouds of dust choking the sky (dust bowl). Frankly, apocalyptic.

If you don’t think you need to be storing/growing/producing mohr(!) food, take a look at how much food comes out of CA. Start w/ almond production.

Two things:

First, I do feed my dogs a 100% raw meat, whole prey diet. I have two dogs, one 65 pounds and one 55 pounds. While they were puppies and actively growing, it cost me about $100/week per dog for their food. Now that they have stopped growing so quickly, it costs me about $100/week for both dogs. Dogs eat about 2-3% of their body weight per day when they are fully grown. My source costs approximately $5/pound.

My dogs get everything from the standard beef, chicken, pork plus different things like beaver and muskrat. I figure that cows eat grass. Chickens eat bugs, seeds etc. So it stands to reason to me that some animals may be a bit higher in some nutrients than others, therefore I mix everything up. So people can definitely drop the price down a bit if they stay away from things that are higher priced. Also, organ meats tend to be cheaper. I get all of my meat for myself from a local organic farm. I get things like beef heart and livers for $.75/pound.

The biggest problem with this kind of diet for dogs is storage. I have two freezers for the dog’s food, one for mine and the one above the fridge is shared. So if you go this route, make sure that you have a generator or two in case of power outages.

Second topic- a little mental masterbation about Bitcoin. If all of these smaller countries, including third world countries, are the first governments to adopt and buy Bitcoin, and Bitcoin does amazingly well over time, do some of these smaller countries suddenly jump up to first world status? It would be interesting to see some of these small countries suddenly have the ability to tell “the world powers” to go kick rocks. Haha!!

Regarding Wallet of Satoshi and keeping bitcoin in their Lightning wallet, would Strike be able to do the same thing, or is Strike only for sending payments over the Lightning network? From what I’ve seen using Strike, it’s custodial until it gets sent to your own wallet.

Appreciate the detailed explanation on it, Jack. Doesn’t sound confusing, just need to move it once like you were saying to understand it. Looks like I need to play around with the Lightning functions in Exodus.
