The 4 Hour Work Week was the book that did it for me!
think of my book as the unofficial sequel to Tim's, from the POV of a married man with 4 young kids ;)
In 2017 I released my book 'Choose Life'.
Since then, it has gone on to sell dozens of copies, dozens, I tell you!
If you feel 2026 is a year of change for you and your family, this is a piece of the puzzle that might help you get over the line ;)

@Jestopher joins me to discuss @Amboss , Bitcoin, Lightning, MOE, and who built the roads.
This Christmas, I chose violence against some of my favorite podcasters! 🧡 I vibe-code a podcast player that automatically skips ads. But before podcasters come for me attacking their revenue stream, there's something for you too at the end!
Podcasting 2.0 already supports chapters, which are just time codes. So I adapted that functionality to just add time codes for ads. Not exactly rocket surgery! 🚀👨⚕️

But where it could get interesting for nostr are the incentives. The start/stop time codes of the ads needs to be sourced from somewhere. That data could be crowdsourced from nostr users, who would earn zaps when an ad they tagged got skipped. The podcast producers could even provide their own time code tags so they get the zaps.

Haven't spent a ton of time on this, but I'd imagine listeners would probably pull the data from a paid nostr relay so their player could look up the GUID for each episode to get the ad time codes. And the player would notify the relay when an ad got skipped and by which npub and who's npub tagged the timecodes.

Where it could get interesting for podcast creators is that the ads that are baked into your mp3 get stale over time, or they are just totally irrelevent to a global audience. You're leaving money on the table. With these tagged time codes you could have dynamic ads that are localized for people that listen using an ad-block compatible player that hasn't paid for the ad-blocking. They still get ads, but more relevant ads.

Disclaimer: I am not a podcaster (or developer) and have little insight into the inner workings of the biz model of the industry. I just wanted to try out Claud with and scratch an itch of an idea.

Remember, as a bitcoiner you are going to be called crazy, by people who are working as hard as they possibly can to earn and save in a mandated medium of exchange that was literally designed to lose purchasing power over time.
Never forget that you are the sane one and over time your actions will speak louder than words.
Bitcoin is inevitable, carry on being the signal!
Great rip, ser. Very informative and more evidence to the fact that there is no justice in our so called legal systems.
