Send me her bitcoin address 🫂

Truly a remarkable interview. Thanks Matt!

working on it!

Yes. Tell her I’ll pay $£ plus equal amount of sats for a first edition.

Awe 🫢 that’s so nice to read 🫂🤟🏻🕊️

A good pre-show is the Mandibles book club episode of the John Vallis podcast.

#[1]

This was great! Her perspective is much needed amongst boomers.

This one was 🔥 didn't finish the book before this episode but her views were what I expected.

Chicken and wine to 89

How many book spoilers in this podcast episode?

Ull know how it ends

The podcast will spoil the ending yes.

Hope she gets orange pilled and feel the hope. A lot of despair from her perspective.

This was truly excellent content 🙏

The whole team at @Amboss enjoyed it :)

Fantastic, just got done.

Can't wait to listen to it. Thanks #[1] !! ⚡⚡🤙

Just listened to the pod and enjoyed it. I look forward to sending her some sats. #[2] - did you get her set up with lighting?

What a lady! This was so much fun.

“Did you read the recent op ed in New York Times, fucking terrifying!” Lol

Link?

Not sure, maybe this: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/17/opinion/retirement-annuity-long-term-care-insurance.html

Frankly most of them are fucking terrifying!

Nice. Your fav author

I enjoyed it. She’s reluctant to trust Bitcoin for sure but man is she almost there. Good job walking that fine line. Once she gets to finally go down the rabbit hole she’ll enjoy rewatching and seeing how you held back kindly.

Please share her BTC address. Imagine if we could zap her lol

Hmm 🧐 LMC that

Great episode!!!!!!!!! Any idea how to get an autographed copy of The Mandibles?

She's amazing!

Amazing show Matt. 👏 Based AF.

One of the best dispatch episodes yet. Lionel gets it.

She got it from the collapse of fiat money, seizure of gold, chips for surveillance, that’s why she is pessimistic. Matt please get her Bitcoin address so I can send her some hope. Great interview 🤙

In the interview she mentioned she had an attic full of first editions of Mandibles. It would be pretty slick if she was to sell them signed for Bitcoin. Tell me I am not the only one that thought that.

Just listened to the podcast and thought the same thing. I would get one!

This was good but I’m not sending her sats just to watch them sit for eternity. She wanted nothing to do with bitcoin

Fantastic show! 🐓🍷

Matt, what a great conversation. It’s just such a great, raw interaction. Glad you got to make this connection and I hope the two of you continue to talk. I think LS was intrigued by you and receptive (though cautious) to what you had to say.

great rip! do McCarthy next

Great show! Whats her wallet address?

Great rip 🤙

Shriver swears like a sailor. Great episode!

That was fire brother!!

“I see your sensitive about that”

Let’s load her up with sats!!

Quote of the show from Jevi in comments...

Excellent can’t wait to listen 😀👍

I can’t wait to listen to this. Mandibles

🔥Best Citadel Dispatch Ever 🔥Subtle concise and elegant shilling mixed with the knowledge base to impress even Lionel (41 minutes in Matt: “Executive Order 6102”

Lionel: “Good for You”)

Thank you 🙏 Sats to Shriver Mandibles 2.0 the Bitcoin Edition 😁

She’s awesome. Enjoyed this

did she hang around after show to get setup?

This was an amazing interview!

That last 15mins tho. Orange pilling master class

Hand over her bitcoin address. Let's zap the shit outta her

Incredible interview .. must reread mandibles now also

Great show to go with a great book. She'd definitely be a bitcoiner if she was younger. It's a shame she's so aware of the fiat trap but too scared to escape it.

I have a good friend who she reminded me of. In all ways on side with Bitcoin but too risk averse to get onboard. Maybe with more time and a longer track record they'll board the life raft of Bitcoin.

OMG she fucking rules

Outstanding interview! And TY for blue wallet lightning alert on RHR, a few worthy sats sent to CD. You are incredibly important to me, to our freedom. Thank you

Great interview. I think the orange pill would have gone down better with an actionable use case though. I would gladly part with some of my hard earned sats for the uncut self-published version of Mandibles.

Would love to buy a first edition from her paying in bitcoin!!! Could you make this happen for the freaks Matt?

She mentioned she has 1st editions in her garage. Pretty sure she could make a decent amount selling signed copies of them. I know I'd be a customer.

A dream within a dream 🔥

Listening now. Helluva episode!

This rip is straight 🔥

Thank you #[1] for making this happen with Lionel Shriver finally!

Mandibles Mandibles Mandibles

Great interview 👍🏆

Great interview! Hope she gets a paynym soon!

First social media comment since 2010. Awesome interview. Stay humble stack stats.

Needed this for a Saturday morning, fucking great 🤙

Lionel is such a pussy. Not using Bitcoin makes him my enemy.

No debate.

I don't fucking care what he wrote in that book.

What matters is that if he use Bitcoin as money.

don’t miss this one.

bitcoin is hope.

#[0]

This was real good. I guess I will finally read the book.

Good book. Just not in the great category.

A point I felt Lionel missed but would appreciate is that Bitcoin is arguably a better tool for self defense than a gun. Easy to hide. Hard to take. Impossible to see.

#[0]

Well done Matt.

Should I listen to this or read the book first?

Great episode! ✊

Discover Shriver and The Mandibles - best bit about this rip was how even #[0] struggled to concisely articulate Bitcoin's value prop, even within the context of an author who wrote a book like The Mandibles.

Discovering Bitcoin is difficult, but definitely worth it. 🔶👀

#[1]

Sick episode. How’d it feel to onboard an unknowing orange piller, that was wild man.

This was a great episode. If you haven't read The Mandibles it is highly recommended for Bitcoiners:

Great rip

amazing job out there Matt! that was a solid interview, you pushed bitcoin without sounding cuckoo

I’m excited to donate to Lionel’s wallet. Great show.

I heard "Mandibles" enough times in my podcast perusing that I actually read like half of it.

Will find time to work on the other half.

Based on the half you read, is it worth the hype?

I think the fact the second half requires work says something.

It’s hard work but interesting

I was captivated by the book, very easy to read for me. But I mostly read non-fiction. Had a blast with it.

First half is better

Another good one is Super Sad True Love Story by Gary Shteyngart. A slightly dystopian tale of the not-too-distant-future 🤓

Great podcast. Being a boomer myself, I somewhat understand her fear and hesitation. As Saylor put it, once you put 100 hours on bitcoin you will see what can't be unseen no matter how many years you left in your life.

I liked how you let her speak without interruption. Do a follow up with her in one year to see if she’s become a bitcoiner.

This rip is the shit.

The language Lionel talks called SOVEREIGN!

💭💜💪

Finally finishing up Mandibles, I gotta get through it before @odell@werunbtc.com latest Citadel Dispatch with the author! It is so good, looking forward to finishing the book and checking out the Pod!  #[1]

Great interview, really enjoyed it!

Felt like she is very fond of Steve Koonin, i liked that.

omg #[1] thanks so much! literally the best thing I listened to in a long time! on so many levels a truly marvelous extraction of various thoughts! I‘m hyped

I will recommend the book to all my nocoiner friends… and they will love it! Lionel is without words… 🙏🧡

Listening to it a second time. What is amazing I think about this interview is that I would not have expected a fiction novelist to be one of the most genuine and real person I have heard for a long time.

Outfuckingstanding rip Matt 🫡 Definitely not treasury

Nostr is dying

When can we send her bitcoin!?
