Either you control the memes, or the memes control you.

I watched a bunch when I first joined Nostr. A lot of the people I initially followed were podcasters, and obviously the meme was "watch podcasts, learn Bitcoin". I came to realize it's very little actual information, a bunch of price prediction talk that doesn't matter, and sponsor segments.

A better meme:

I've got a dog to walk 🐾🐶

This is a good insight:

EITHER YOU CONTROL THE MEMES, OR THE MEMES CONTROL YOU.

Besides that, I do kinda feel bad for new people coming into Bitcoin because there's so much content. At first, really anything Bitcoin only will help, but after that, it's hard to find a source of non-repetetive content.

It's not self evident, that's for sure. I didn't think podcasts as they currently stand are the way to educate though. Like you said, cut the noise. I learned more from watching 3 Andreas Antonopoulos videos than I did from every podcast combined.
