The Artist vs. The State: Bitcoin, Propaganda, and Digital Revolution w/ George Bodine (WiM563)

George Bodine joins me to discuss the cost of working in law enforcement, the discipline needed to become a fighter pilot, the intersection of art and Bitcoin, the ramifications of fiat vs. sound money, the role of propaganda in the fiat system, Bitcoin as a digital organism, the oscillation between individualism and collectivism, and what it means to live with honor, strength, and integrity.

George Bodine is a professional artist, ex-oil field worker, cab driver, miner, cop, and Navy fighter pilot.
