Dr. Will Tuttle is an influential author known for The World Peace Diet and Food for Freedom. We explored his philosophy on how veganism is intricately connected to freedom and the implications this has on both individual and societal levels. Dr. Tuttle, with his rich background in philosophy, humanities, and Zen Buddhism, shared insights on the often-overlooked link between our treatment of animals and the elusive pursuit of freedom. This discussion delved into how our actions, particularly the enslavement of animals, may reflect and influence the challenges we face in achieving true freedom. How do our choices impact our collective well-being? Is there a deeper connection between veganism and human liberation that we need to consider?

In this episode, I delve into the world of Bitcoin and privacy with expert Matt Odell. We touch on Odell's personal journey towards Bitcoin, his philosophical stance on its role in society, and the potential future challenges and innovations on the horizon.
As a vocal advocate for privacy and decentralized technologies, Odell highlights the stark implications of privacy in our increasingly digital society, and the central role of Bitcoin within it. He elaborates on the misconceptions about Bitcoin's privacy features, its challenges, and the technical efforts required to maintain privacy and anonymity.
We also discuss the the recent alarming examples of government overreach, including the Tornado Cash developer sentencing and the Wasabi founders being charged with running an illegal money transmitter. Will self custody be the next casualty?
The topic of scaling Bitcoin is also explored, with Odell discussing the challenges of increasing Bitcoin's transaction capacity while maintaining its decentralized nature. He shares his perspective on different paths to scaling, and their potential impacts on privacy and user autonomy. His commentary extends to the role of software, emphasizing the need for software development decisions which take into consideration the reality of the privacy neglecting practices of the average Bitcoin user.

In this episode I reflect on taxation, its ethical implications, and the broader societal constructs of democracy and government intervention. The episode was inspired by some recent debates I had on Twitter, and a poignant poem shared by a user known as Oz, which critiques the pervasiveness of taxation.
The conversation delves into the philosophical underpinnings of taxation, questioning whether it aligns with the principles of fairness and individual rights. I also question the pervasive role that taxation and socialisation have when it comes to incentive structures, especially in relation to personal responsibility. Finally I discuss the concept of consensualism in societal organization, emphasizing the foundational ethical concept of consent and how this naturally results in anarchism, or voluntarism, as the rational ethical baseline for a just society.
