    The Planet Earth Guide to Investing in Cryptocurrency with Sir John Hargave

    In this episode of Soft and Savage, John Hargrave—CEO of Media Shower and author of The Intelligent Crypto Investor—cuts through the confusion of crypto by reframing it in familiar terms: blockchains as shared spreadsheets, cryptos as companies, and tokens as stocks. Drawing on his own journey from early Bitcoin gains to devastating losses and recovery, Hargrave emphasizes disciplined, long-term investing over hype, advocating for diversification, dollar-cost averaging, and a maximum 10% allocation to crypto. He challenges conventional thinking by arguing that crypto is not just an asset class but a foundational technology poised to replace the global financial system, while also making a provocative case for a future global digital currency. Throughout, the conversation balances skepticism and clarity, transforming crypto from an intimidating abstraction into a practical, investable framework.  Show Notes Guest Sir John Hargrave – CEO, Media ShowerBooks & Publications The Intelligent Crypto InvestorBlockchain for EveryoneThe Intelligent Crypto Investor newsletterCompany & Platforms Media ShowerSocial Profiles LinkedIn: John HargraveX (Twitter): @sirjohnhargraveKey Concepts Covered Crypto as companies; tokens as stocksBlockchain explained as a “shared spreadsheet”Bitcoin as a volatile tech asset—not currency or goldStablecoins as a bridge between traditional finance and cryptoLong-term investing strategy (≤10% allocation, steady investing)The case for a future global digital currencyNotable Mentions Coinbase (retail investing platform)Circle Internet Financial (US stablecoin issuer) This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, or legal advice.

    Narcissism: The Soup We’re Swimming In Sam Vaknin

    Episode Summary: Dr. Samuel Vaknin unveils narcissism's dual nature: wounded children wearing masks of grandiosity. From love-bombing to discarding, they create psychological mazes for victims while their emptiness drives constant validation-seeking. Different types—overt, covert, somatic, cerebral—share childhood trauma origins, but their destructive patterns can captivate individuals and societies alike.
