 Who are some hardcore Bitcoiners that you want to hear from more, but rarely get asked to come on #Bitcoin podcasts?

I want to use  @Titcoin to branch outside of the usual echo chamber of Bitcoin podcasts and amplify high-signal Bitcoiners.

 We'd be happy to come on the show  @walker.   Been bitcoining since 2013,  living on an orange standard since 2017, all offgrid and solar powered.  We write our own code, run our own node and broadcast everyday.   Feel free to DM.    The  @LightningGoats project is a lot more than a "nostr bot."

 Let’s fucking do this. 
 Sent email contact via DM. LFG 
 It's not exactly the answer to your question but I would like to see an anti-bitcoiner. And not a weirdo, I want someone well articulated, able to have a healthy debate. For me, this is the best way to get out of an echo chamber. 
 Whitney Webb would be an interesting guest. Not all of her arguments against bitcoin are great, but many of them are strong points. 
 Where has Andreas Antonopolous been? 
 @asoltys to discuss lightning merchant adoption and taking his bitcoin company nostr only. 
 I think this would be a great conversation. 
 sign me up! 
 Done  
 Cody Wilson and his thoughts of today's development would be interesting. 
 DD's Cody Wilson? I think he's keeping a really low profile these past years, isn't he. 
 Yup. That's why it would be interesting. 
 this one. But really hard to find him

 I would love to see/hear an episode with Peter Wuille. Also if you have contacts to hacker groups, it would be interesting to hear their opinions and perspective on bitcoin security. 
 Maybe you could try to convince der Gigi to do a podcast with you? I know he’s not active in this way much and he has detailed some of the reasons why in his February blog post, but if doing a podcast could be therapeutic then you Mr. Walker are the man for the job. I just miss Gigi, I think I must have listened to every single podcast with him, he’s been a huge influence and inspiration. 
 I would be supremely honored to talk to @Gigi 

No pressure or obligation, Gigi, but consider this a public open invite transmitted by relays. 🫂

 GREG FOSS idk why it auto-translated 
 This.  This one right here. 
 Been debating reaching out to Foss. Love that dude. 
 We need your help convincing Foss to join Nostr

 Small time every day Bitcoiners. I'm tired of hearing from people with big follower counts. My focus is helping the small time Bitcoiners be seen and heard. The ones not being bought and sold out for clicks and product sponsorships. Just real authentic down to earth every day Bitcoiners. 
 Every day bitcoiners

 所谓五千年的中华历史,就是这么循环往复的。有反对的吗? https://t.co/dw7iuTlyOQ https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1836220353347014656/vid/avc1/720x516/-LzdcxjQswdgcD9E.mp4?tag=16 
 Where did Greg Foss go? 
 Find others willing to argue with Saylor’s statism - I’ll listen. 
 https://youtu.be/-o02OLYsnw0 
 Opening 30 seconds: “Now let’s go back to 5000 years of history”.

To what history?

Some places allowed usury, some didn’t. Some did, then didn’t. Some didn’t, then did.

There’s no one size fits all for deflation and Bitcoin is a new paradigm. 

What’s his base case aligned to 2024? 
 You asked for arguments against Bitcoin statism, which Jeff provides in this episode. 
 Ok Walker. Imma listen to this tomorrow based on what you say. Jeff better be clear in his anti-statism or I’m holding you accountable. 
 Can I give you another suggestion that I've made to podcast hosts but it never has gone anywhere?

We always get the breaking news stories but nobody ever seems to follow up on OUTCOMES, which are significantly more important to see if something worked, or why it didn't, etc. So maybe the people involved in that arena would be interesting.  
 It is surprising how poorly so many bitcoin podcasts age. I know things move fast, but really. 

As you say, follow ups would be a step in the right direction. Maybe there's room for just one more podcast. Bitcoin Follow Ups!!  All the old news revisited. Whatever happened to...
 
 Agreed. Like I remember hearing Dan Batten talk on What Bitcoin Did about a garbage dump in Florida looking into using flared gas from their trash burning to mine. 

Did they go through with it? Do they consider it successful? If not, what did they learn? That's the shit that fascinates me. 
 I'm keen.  If you want to hear from an average pleb. I talk about insulating yourself from the state and how bitcoin is in line with God's word.  Hmu
