    Episode 7: Proof of Work

    In this episode, Chris and Adam sit down with Dr. Sahil Zaveri, a cardiology fellow in New York City who discovered Bitcoin early in his medical training — and used it as a tool to accelerate his journey toward financial sovereignty.

    Episode 3: The Digital Transformation of Medicine

    Chris and Adam sit down with the original Dr. Adcock — Chris’ father and a seasoned family physician with over 35 years in practice — for a multigenerational conversation on legacy, medicine, and the failure of the fiat system.

This episode explores the hidden cost of inflation on family life, housing, and purpose — and how Bitcoin offers a way out. From EHRs to AI, the conversation dives into what has and hasn’t improved in medicine. Dr. Adcock also shares the moment the orange pill finally clicked for him, and how Bitcoin became more than an investment — it became a philosophy of time, trust, and family resilience. — 🎙 Chapters: 00:00 – Intro: Fiat Is Broken: The Time-Energy Theft of Modern Money 05:33 – How Primary Care Has Changed Over 35+ Years 13:33 – Advice to Your Younger Self (From a Father & Physician) 21:33 – Technology & Medicine: What’s Really Changed 29:33 – Orange Pill Journey: When Bitcoin Finally Clicked 36:03 – Bitcoin as Purpose & Philosophical Anchor 43:33 – Why Traditional Saving/Investing Isn’t Enough Anymore 49:03 – Housing, Family Struggles & the Cost of Fiat Life 55:33 – The Time Thesis: Bitcoin Protects our Scarcest Asset 1:01:33 – Single Income Family is Extinct.

    Episode 4: Don’t Blink

    Welcome back to The Bitcoin Fellowship! @DocStacks and @SpideyDoc3 break down the latest in Bitcoin news and market behavior, including how the market shrugged off an 80,000 BTC dump from an OG whale — without even flinching. We unpack the recent price action, Galaxy Digital’s reported Bitcoin sell-off, and how institutional players like PNC Bank are stepping deeper into the crypto arena. Then we look ahead at key catalysts in the coming week — from earnings announcements to protocol developments. This episode also introduces Strategy’s latest preferred equity offering, STRC (“Stretch”), and what it signals about capital markets and BTC-backed structures. From there, the conversation widens: we cover advice for new Bitcoin investors, how Bitcoin enables long-term financial freedom, and the growing link between AI’s energy demands and Bitcoin’s proof-of-work incentive. If AI eats the world, who pays the power bill? We close with a bullish outlook on Bitcoin’s current cycle and reflections on how fiat incentives are being exposed in real time — from job security to generational wealth. — 🔔 Subscribe to future episodes 📬 X: @OrangePillDocs 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and X

    This week on The Bitcoin Fellowship, we sit down with Dr. Ahmad Ammous — physician and brother of economist Dr. Saifedean Ammous, author of The Bitcoin Standard. Ahmad shares his journey through medicine, how early exposure to Bitcoin shaped his thinking, and why he believes our healthcare system is fundamentally broken. We explore the history of centralized medicine, the fiat incentives that distort patient care, and how hard money and low time preference thinking could radically improve outcomes. From specialty silos and the erosion of clinical trust to the global implications of Bitcoin for healthcare systems — this conversation pulls no punches. We also dive into Ahmad’s personal research on circadian rhythm and light exposure, with practical advice to improve your health starting today — whether you’re orange-pilled or not.
