A highlight from CV156: Henrik Skogstrm - Torq
"All right, everybody, welcome, welcome here to Show 156. Matthew Maginskas, your host here from Northeastern Europe, joined by my co -host here, Michel Quito Miner from Nautil in Paris, their relatively new offices, right, Michel, how are you doing? Hey, what's up? Yeah, two weeks old offices. Nice, congrats. And in a exquisite office slash studio with a view, as you can see, dear viewer, if you're watching this feed, we have Henrik Skogström from Norway, founder and CEO of LN Capital. Henrik, thanks a lot for joining and welcome. Thank you for having me. You know, undisclosed location, perhaps, where you are, or people can figure it out? I think people can figure it out. But yeah, the view seems unreal, even in real life back here. imagine. I can So it's great to meet you in Prague during BCC Prague, we actually shared a taxi back to the old town. And I guess I'll just tongue in cheek ask you the same question that I asked you before when I heard LN Capital, you know, how big is your fund? What are you guys raising for? Yeah, yeah, I got that a lot. Tell us a little bit about LN Capital and what you guys are doing. Yeah, so we're not a VC fund. We don't invest in startups. We're building, we're a startup ourselves. And also, it's part of the reason why we're switching name from LN Capital to Torque. So this is, it's been a common problem. But what we do is... This is one of the last times you'll be known as coming from LN Capital. Yeah. But yeah, we build node management software, but for really large nodes and really large companies. So if they have, they usually have multiple nodes, they have thousands of channels, and they have thousands and thousands of payments happening every day. At that point, you need a really scalable solution and not just anything you find online. So companies until this point has mostly built soft their own because of out of necessity. So we're coming in and providing software they need instead of them having to spend time on that, which their customers don't really care about. Yeah. So Torque is the software, the platform. You know, big question always these days, open source, closed source, some sort of mixture. How is your setup look? So right now, Torque is closed source. And we have a different project that's not really LN Capital or Torque that is called Scaling Lightning. We can talk about that as well a bit later. But yeah, we're closed source. Managing channels, capacity, node management, routing, all of that stuff's, you know, depending on how much in the weeds we want to go. And we can during this episode. But yeah, who exactly is your product for? So yeah, we're, as I said, for large companies, for example, could be Ibex, for example, where they have multiple nodes. They have a lot of channels and high volume of payments going on. At that point, the problem isn't really about having it, about liquidity. It's about managing the shared chaos it is if you don't have a tool. So this is really hard to do when the volume grows and the number of channels and the amount of activity grows. So typically, a company spends a ton of resources building tools to manage, to see what's going on and be able to prevent something going wrong. So yeah, we're here to deliver that for them. And how long have you been working for building this? So we started building about one and a half year ago. And we're now getting, we just launched our version one, and we're starting to really pick up speed and features are really piling on here. Yeah, I mean, it's amazing what everybody's doing. I remember quite well the tension as August 2017 was coming and SegWit was becoming activated. And growth the exploded originally, I remember. A couple of years ago, it seemed like lightning, not the development because that's not my gig, but it almost seemed like there was maybe a little bit of centralization or a little bit of less active usage of lightning. And I thought with the kind of price explosion that happened in 2021, there would be even more usage. And I'm certainly a proponent of lightning. I think it's going to be great. But anybody who's developing on lightning right now, to me, it just seems like you're super forward thinking. You definitely can see around corners because I think a lot of individual Bitcoin users, they're just not familiar with it. What do you feel about that assessment? Do you think I'm way off the mark there? Are we sort of behind schedule? Are we on schedule? Just sort of big picture with lightning. So in my opinion, I think it's sort of developing in phases. It's also that initial jump and then flat for a while and jumps up in total capacity again. And I think this is not necessarily something where Bitcoiners need to be super engaged, need to have all that hype around it because it's a technology that just works. It has a function. So it could be as well that I think most users in the future are not going to know that they're using lightning. So it's a transport layer. So my hope is that it gets simplified to a very high degree. But of course, it is very important to have that choice. You have that escape action. You can always as easily as possible run your own lightning node. So for example, solutions like Breeze, a ton of these other self -custodial or semi -self -custodial solutions that help users stay in control but still have that convenience is super important. I think this just keeps developing. And I think you shouldn't underestimate the sort of these breaking points where the technology reaches these points where it just kicks off and it's easy enough for everybody to just take off and use lightning. We have another one of those good solutions right here. My co -host, Kito, I don't know if you want to jump in at this point with what you guys are doing. Yeah, so we are self -custodying lightning in the old -fashioned way, meaning people run the lightning node on their physical hardware and then remote to it through Zappos or any other mobile app that they can use or RTO, web frontends, whatever. I wanted to ask you, so you aim at really large operators and it seems to me that except for WebView 1, they are all running LND right now. So what implementations are you compatible with? So we support LND and CLN so far. We're going to add LDK.
The Garden Question
Fresh update on "norway" discussed on The Garden Question
"What about back pain? You have back pains at any age. As you get older, they seem to come up more often, especially after you do strenuous work in the garden. Some people can put a back brace on and others can. Some of the ways you can alleviate your problem or lessen your problem is don't lift with your back. Don't lean over and lift. Squat down and lift with your legs. Don't lift things above your head or you're going to wreck your shoulder. If you have to put them on a body bench or a workbench, bring it up to about your waist. Take a breath, situate yourself, and then go the rest of the way. When you've got bags of fertilizer or bags of mulch, don't carry them out to the garden. Use a coaster wagon or a garden cart or a wheelbarrow. It's better to pull it than push it. If you're going to use a wheelbarrow, get one with two wheels. It's more stable than one with one wheel. Some people can use back braces too. Elevated beds, raised beds, and containers allow you to sit and work in your garden, which is good for people with back problems. I have a friend ask me one time, she said, do you know what my most used garden tool is? I didn't have a clue what she was going to say. She said hand trucks because she could just slide them up under any bag or a pot or anything and just pull back on it and move it around wherever she wanted to. That's right. I've got one of those and it's great, especially for moving pots around. My conveyance of choice is a coaster wagon. Yeah, they don't even sell coaster wagons anymore, I wonder. They do. Most of them are plastic. They even have folding ones. They're a metal frame and a canvas around the frame. They fold up. Yeah, that way you could transport it around too if you needed to. Real easy. If you want to get a real heavy duty one, you know the ones that garden centers have that have the big wheels and the sides that fold down? I think gardeners supply sells them. Oh yeah, yeah. They're not cheap. Yeah, those would be real handy, I would think. Yeah, they are. No, they're all still constructed in those big tires. They'll last forever. I've got some wheelbarrows I call Yeti wheelbarrows and they've got like these six inch wide wheels on them and the handles on them are probably two inches by two inches and they're oak and they just last forever. Now they're not cheap either, but that's probably not something you'd use at an older age, but there's some tools you can buy and pay the money for them and they're well worth it to go ahead and buy the higher quality tool. Things that people have to look at is how to adapt and one is tend your garden, don't toil in it, work smarter, not harder, and embrace imperfection. Some of the things that you can do if you're digging up perennials because they're over growing their space and dividing them every year or two, next time you dig them up, give all four pieces away. Don't put one back in the hole. Replace them with shrubs or dwarf conifers. Shrubs, they only need a little pruning once a year. Dwarf conifers. I've got two dwarf Norway spruce that I got in 2009 in my backyard. I've never even had to prune them. When I design, I want to understand the space that the plant's going in, length, width, height, and use a plant that's going to fit into that space and let it grow to its natural form and shape and not even prune it unless it's just a snip here or there. But most things I do from a low maintenance standpoint, I think that's a great way to go is just buy plants that don't overgrow their space. Embracing imperfection is important too because so many times we want to have something perfect. We see these gardens like longwood gardens that are trimmed to perfection. Well, they have a staff of people who trim them to perfection. That's not nature's way. If nature were perfect, we wouldn't have to have this conversation, Craig, because we wouldn't be having all these diseases and problems, knees wearing out and backs wearing out. It's the same with plants. When you walk through a forest that the plants are in perfect rows, nature didn't plant them that way. People planted them that way. Nature's seeds germinate wherever they fall. You're in New York and I'm in Georgia. Temperatures can be an issue no matter where you live. What's your advice for dealing with temperature extremes? Well, up here, watering, for example, down there you have to irrigate, don't you, quite often? It depends on what plants you choose. We're in a drought right now and I haven't watered my plants one time, but it's because I've got plants that will work in dry times. We're in an area that has one of the great lakes, Lake Ontario, to the north and to the south, the Finger Lakes. So we got lots of water. It's seldom that we run dry or that we even have advisories. I've had my son connect a hose in the backyard at the beginning of the season because I have a holly that was planted last fall and it was looking a little peaked because we weren't getting much rain. So I was going to water it and the dad was going to water it. The state had an air advisory because of wildfires in the Quebec province whose smoke was coming down here. As I sit where I am now, looking out my window, I couldn't even see the house across the street because the smoke was so thick. So I decided the plant was under warranty and I wasn't, so I didn't go out there and water it. And the next day, we got rains. Today, as of last night, we were something like 6.54 inches over average for this year for rain. That's great. I don't want to leave you under the impression that nobody ever irrigates here because they do, especially as in the turf grasses when we're trying to seek perfection. It goes back to what you were saying earlier. Everybody wants that perfect lawn. But if you allow the lawns, like the warm season grasses, to go dormant that we have here, then they'll bounce right back when it starts raining again. That seeking of perfection is what they do here too. I suggest to people for the occasion when they need the water, get soaker hoses. The ones made of recycled tires and snake them through your beds and mulch over them so you don't even see them. When you have to water, you just turn the spigot on a quarter turn because if you turn it on anymore, it's going to make the hose explode because it's such porous rubber. When you do have to water, prioritize any new trees or shrubs. That should be number one on your list. Number two, perennials. Don't worry about your annuals because you're going to be having to change them out pretty soon anyway. And as for your grass, unless you got lots of money to pay your water bill, let it go brown because it's going to green up when the rain comes back. Let's talk about temperature. How do you handle gardening in the warmer temperatures and the cold temperatures? Garden when it's comfortable for you. If you can't stand 90 degree heat, don't go out and garden in the afternoon. Go in the early morning or the later afternoon when it's starting to cool off. If you're always cold, then you might be better off gardening in the afternoon. Do you garden in your area when it's in the winter or do you just let everything go dormant and not worry about it? Let everything go dormant because last year when it was such an easy winter, I only had my driveway plowed three times and three times is nothing up here. I've always thought of gardening as a marathon. What can a gardener do to increase their fading endurance? I don't think you can stop your fading endurance, but you can live with it. First of all, by doing warm-up exercises before you start and cooling down exercises. If you're under a doctor's care, mention it to the doctor and let them tell you what you can and can't do in the way of exercises. Many of them will refer you to a physical therapist and Medicare will probably cover the physical therapy with a co-pay. The physical therapist, at least it's what happened with me, physical therapist will give you an exercise regimen that you can do at home and that'll help. The other thing is timing out how long you work. Start out your day with the most strenuous work and just work until your 20 minutes or half hour is up. Take your break. When you come back, go to a less strenuous job. Each time you take a break, when you come back, go to an even less strenuous job all through the day. You'll probably be just as productive even though you won't get each job done that day. It runs contrary to what we were taught as kids. Mom and dad said, when you start a job, finish it. Well, I'm saying when you start a job, go on to a less strenuous job after your break and you'll be more productive. And just stretch it out over several days. Okay. Walkers in wheelchairs can become a part of staying mobile. What ideas do you suggest to continue gardening with these mobility challenges? Well, I use a walker and if you have a raised bed with a wide cap board, you can kind of sit on it. But the problem is you're parallel to the side of the board, so you're reaching over to do your gardening work. If you have elevated beds, you can actually sit down and there's a place to put your knees under the bed as you're working. And you can get lightweight tools with expandable extension handles. You can set them to where it needs to be to work in that bed. As far as your garden paths, convert them to smooth, wide paths. They should be at least four feet wide to accommodate a wheelchair or a walker. A good paving is flagstone or bluestone set in concrete so that it's not bumpy. Also, place your steps with gentle inclines. You have visual impairments. When you make those inclines, be sure you have handrails and don't start the handrails just at the top of the incline and at the bottom of the incline. Give the person plenty of notice that the incline is coming, so extend the handrails substantially further in either direction. That's a good idea. Tell us some resources that will help the gardener who has downsized to a small backyard. Yeah, there's a book that I would recommend. It's called The Urban Garden. It's written by Kathy Jentz and Terry Speed. It's called The Urban Garden, but it has literally 101 ideas for small space gardens. It doesn't matter whether that small space garden is in the city or in the suburbs or in boondocks. It's got great ideas in it. I would read that when I was trying to make my decision. Are there specific tools, equipment, or modifications that you make to existing tools for those interested in getting started with adaptive gardening? Your old faithful tool is probably starting to get too heavy in your hands. Shovels, rakes, and hoes, they're being made in new lightweight materials these days. The blades are lightweight metal, but strong metal, and the handles are fiberglass. And if you have arthritic fingers like I do and you have trouble grasping them, we recommend putting foam around them. You can either use foam pipe insulation. The downsize of that is it comes like Henry Ford's Model T in any color you want, long as it's black. There's a slit that goes lengthwise because they have to wrap it around the air conditioning pipes. You have to use duct tape lengthwise to seal the slit and then around the end to hold it onto the handle. When I was giving a presentation, somebody suggested using pool noodles. You just slip right on the handle and you can get same color or contrasting color duct tape and you just have to wrap it around the ends to seal the ends. If you're one of these many gardeners who inadvertently leaves tools out in the garden because you forget them, when they're bright blue and glaze orange and safety green, you're not going to miss them. Take them back to the shed or the garage. Then there are ergonomic trowels and hand rakes, as I mentioned before, tools with extension handles so you can set them at the length that's comfortable for you in your raised or elevated beds. Okay, you've written a book, The Geriatric Gardener. What is it about your book that's going to tell us things that we can't find on the internet? It's actually a compilation and an edited version of my first two years of blogging. You can find it on the internet. You have to scroll way back four years to get to it, put it all together in a logical sequence into six sections and 60 chapters, like how adaptive garden, making important decisions, making less important decisions, adaptive gardening through the seasons, and when outdoor gardening is out of the question. You can open that up to the table of contents and find who you have a question about before you can even boot up your computer. Where's the best place to order your book? We're selling it direct because knowing that senior citizens are on fixed income, I wanted to keep it inexpensive. So the cover price is $14.95. The only place to get it is thegeriatricgardener.wordpress.com. If you go to my blog, at the end of each post, click on the link and that'll take you to our secure website portal for ordering the book. Anything else that you'd like to tell us about the book? Well, the thing I like about the book is it's very experiential. Most of the suggestions I make to you is stuff I've done myself. It gets into not only the three seasons that we actively garden, but into the four seasons of winter. And for the people that you have snow, I have ideas on how to get rid of the snow. First of all, don't shovel and how to negotiate a contract with a driveway plow contractor, how to make sure you get them to do what you want them to do. For example, at my house, my ginkgo tree is on one side of the driveway near the garage. I have a garden of ornamental grasses and black-eyed Susans and flocks and a yucca in the middle of the front yard. On the other side, I had to work hard to get this plow contractor to not push the snow on either side. He couldn't figure out how to do it. Finally, after I explained to him how I wanted it done, go up to the garage, drop the plow, pull it back beyond the gardens, and then push it over to the side. He's gotten it after three years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
Author Vitaliy Katsenelson Discusses His Book "Soul in the Game"
"The book is called Soul in the Game, The Art of a Meaningful Life. And I was like, I really like the way this is written. This author really knows how to capture your attention. His syntax, his diction was excellent. He just kept reading and reading and reading. And it was incredibly deep. Finished the whole thing. I said, I want to have this guy on the show. And there's tons of lessons there, tons of things that I really want to talk about and explore, including stoicism, which we're going to get to later in the hour. But joining us now is the author of the book. I might mispronounce the name. I apologize if I do. Vitaly Katz the Nelson. Welcome to the program. Vitaly Katz the Nelson. You got it. It's perfect. No, it's perfect. Okay. Well, welcome to the program. Congratulations on a very readable and fulfilling and deep book. From your perspective, tell us why you wrote this book. And I have several items I want to explore with you. So please. Yeah. Well, you know, actually, the of dedication this book is to my kids, because you don't read my emails. And I think that's probably sums it up. I just, I wanted to, I write these articles about investing, about, you know, many fun topics, but a lot of topics are about life. And I wanted to make sure my kids read my content. So I figured the best way to do it is to package into a book. Well, and it's just rich with wisdom and also your own personal narrative. And so again, the book is called Soul in the Game, the Art of a Meaningful Life. So let's just kind of go through some of the elements here. And then I want to dive into some particulars and specifics. Your father, so being born in Russia was obviously a big part of your life. Talk about that, you know, being born in Russia. And then as you put it, made in America. Yeah. So I was born in Russia and I grew up in the, not just in Russia, but in Soviet Russia. And I grew up in a town called Murmansk. And most Americans would know about Murmansk if you watched the hunt for the Red October, because that is the home for the Russian Navy base. And that's where the Red October, which is a fictional submarine is from. So Murmansk was kind of actually interesting place because this is so up north. If you look at Norway, you have to go to the right, to the northeast, you know, to the highest tip of Norway to find Murmansk right now. It's 100 miles away. So there's very little sunlight in the winter time. So little that I would wake up in the morning, it's dark. I would walk to school. It's still, you know, it is dark. The sun would come out for about 10 minutes and I would miss it because I would be in school. And when I walk back home, it's dark again. And today, so my family moved to United States. I live in Denver, which is kind of the opposite of Murmansk because we have 300 days of sunshine. But my family moved to United States in 1991. Since then, I now have a wife, three kids, and I'm a kind of, I call myself a capitalistic pig because living in Russia made me appreciate what we have here in the United States and it's very special.
Milk Crates and Turntables. A Music Discussion Podcast
Fresh update on "norway" discussed on Milk Crates and Turntables. A Music Discussion Podcast
"Hatebreed, right? You know anything about them, Mark? Yeah, I remember hearing about them. Yeah, Hatebreed. They were like that industrial... They were like... They were metalcore, I think they called it. Metalcore music. You know something? They may have put something out on wax tracks, because I think we did something. Yeah, they had a little thing. Hoobastank. Hoobastank. They were kind of a little middle of the road band in the 90s. I hate that name, though. I do, too. One of the worst names of all time. Now, how do they fucking make it, like, somewhat in fatso jets and doesn't? It's the music. I don't believe that for one second. The fatso doesn't have a catchy tune. Here's another group that... I don't know why they didn't make it with a name like this, Jungle Rot. Good name. Which is being stationed in the Philippines, right? In the humidity of the Philippines, being out on post all night. And you're out with your dog, and it's just literally 100% humidity. And you're out on patrol, and you got your uniform on, your BDUs, and your boots, and you're just like... And it's just like, Jungle Rot is a real thing, people. Like, you gotta walk in my boots, and any canine handler that worked over in the Philippines will testify, Jungle Rot is a thing. And if you get a cut, get it checked out quick, right? Robert Kirkman says Jungle Rot was real. He was over there. He wasn't a dog handler. He was a security droid. You know, those are the people that just guard airplanes. It's a great Steve Miller song. Literally, they just guard airplanes. Security droids, that's what we call them. They guarded airplanes, right? And they stood at entry points, and they drove around in their little area, right? Yeah. Karen Hurley says, let's talk Freddie Mercury. Yeah, my guy, Freddie. What about him? I love him. He was great. Freddie played in Watch... Oh, I thought that was Karen. No, no, no. Robert Kirkman said it. Did Freddie die in 94? No, he died in 91, didn't he? Oh, okay. Wasn't Freddie in the Dreamers? I don't know. Todd Sockman was a dog handler with me. He says it's real. Jungle Rot is real. Are there pictures of this? Yeah, look, Google it. I don't want to see that. Google it. Let me see. The Junior Mafia, they were kind of brought into by Biggie in Bad Boy Records. He kind of overlooked them. Junior Mafia, K's Choice. I saw them back up. I believe it was Korn. They were one of the bands I saw. It was K's Choice. The... Where the fuck was it? I'm getting the Schmitties. It's infective. Ah, fuck. Who was that? That's going to drive me crazy now. I know the name. The Deftones. I'm trying to remember that movie you talked about. It's like on the tip of my tongue. The students, yeah. Yeah, K's Choice. Then it was the Deftones and then Korn. And she was pretty good. The lead singer for K's Choice. She sings that song, I'm Not An Attic. And it's a slow build. I'm Not An Attic, but it's a great fucking song. So if you're going to... My brother listens and he'll stop. He says, this is a two and a half hour podcast, but my brother says it takes him like four hours sometimes because he stops if any of us recommend something. And then he'll go and listen to it, then he'll come back to the podcast. So we could really fuck him up, actually. We just recommend a song every five minutes. And the whole day, yeah. Stay in a rabbit hole. Let him just start checking out everything. Make them really long songs. I like Most of the Edge by The Yes. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yes. Hey, Mark, wasn't that a great Grateful Dead concert from 1994? Isn't that live somewhere? Go listen, bro. Dark Star performance. That was 38 minutes. It's just a die for. Limp Bizkit was formed in 1994, and they did it all for the Nookie. Yeah. Wow. My daughter, Irene, got me hooked on Limp Bizkit and Korn, actually. She was the one that turned me on to them. I like Nookie. Nookie was a great song. Hey, listen, that whole album, $3 bill, y'all, was a $2 bill, y'all, was a great fucking... It's a good album if you like that rap and rock type thing. It's good. It really is good. They were good for their first two, three albums, then just kind of shit moved on. Mad Season. Mad Season. Seattle, right? That was kind of what do they call them? A super group? Yeah. So they had McCready, the guitarist from Pearl Jam. You had Layne Staley, lead singer. You had who else was in there? From Mother Love Bone, one of the guys from Mother Love Bone. I think the drummer from Mother Love Bone was in that. And yeah, Mad Season. I don't remember any music from them. I don't remember hearing them, but I remember hearing about them. My dreams are self-chosen. Sounds like a country song. My dreams. That's my Layne Staley. Not that good. Our self-chosen. I got to admit, no one can do him, right? Nobody can imitate him. That was great about it. It's okay. Can't fucking copy Layne Staley. No, no. You sound like an old Willie Nelson right there. It's kind of Willie-like. This is another band. I don't know how they didn't make it. 90-pound wuss. How are you knocking them? What record label's knocking? Why are they not picking them? So they were either the kids that beat up in school, or they were the kids that beat the kids up. Every week around this time, Dave Phillips goes to bed. He goes to bed. I should be going to bed. Me and Jack had him trained, because we used to do the one-hour show. So Dave Phillips is old school. He's been listening from the beginning. He can't hang for the long show. But thanks for listening, Dave. Thanks for listening. Always appreciate it. Or watching. Maroon 5 was formed in 1994. And she will be loved. And she will feel pretty well. Worst halftime show in history. Worst Super Bowl halftime show in history. Did they just sing that song, Bad Day? That wasn't them, was it? No. You had a bad day. No. It's the same thing, isn't it? Sorry, Karen. Most girls do love Maroon 5. Yeah, they do. It's a chick band. It's a chick band. It's a chick band, yeah. That was very derival. Adam Levine, he's so hot. He's such a hottie. When he takes his, when he took his shirt off at the half-time show, he's so hot. I think Scott's exposing something. With all his tattoos and all this, oh, it's so hot. Adam Levine. He was on The Voice, wasn't he? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. America's got something. Yeah, all right. He is a good-looking guy. I'd give him that. Okay. So what? I'd kick his ass. I'd kick his ass. Like a 90-pound wussy. Yeah, like a 90-pound wuss that he is. Who wrote the word wussy? I don't know. When did that come about? Was that a 90s term? Big in my high school years. I don't know. Was that something you'd say if you couldn't say pussy in high school, like in the 70s or 80s? The word means nothing now. No. Orgy. Orgy was formed in 1994. A real inventive band name. That's a good name. No, they actually did the remake of Blue Monday by New Order. I see a ship in the harbor. Placebo. They had a little run in the 90s. Republica. That? I remember that. Yep. Get I'm ready to go. That was a good song. Saffron. The lead singer's name is Saffron. She was a hottie. She might still be. Spicy. Shout it out. Shout it out. Baby, I'm ready to go. I downloaded that video on my computer in 94, and it was still like dial-up. It was like... It's a great song. Ready to go. Listen to it. And how could this band not make it? They formed in 1990. Septic Tank. Come on. That's a great name. Come on, Rice. That is a great name. What record company would not pick that up? What genre were they? They were punk. Septic Tank. Yeah. That's great. Seven Dust was formed in 1994. Smash Mouth. Might as well be walking on the sun. It was good for a minute. Both of you just give a... No, no. I was silent. It was good. It got too old too fast. Yeah. Well, the sneak of pips. He just died too, right? The singer? Did he? Yeah. Steve Harwell. A couple weeks ago. Oh, shit. I missed that one. I saw him. He did that fucking VH1 celebrity fucking weight loss for one of those shows. Oh, really? Or was it the halfway house show? I don't know. Might have been the halfway house show because he was a pretty heavy drinker. Fucking meat sweats making my nose run down. Jesus. I'm all fucked up. We might have to end the show a little early tonight. The sneak of pips. Six Underground. The song Six Underground. Take me down. Six Underground. She got a sexy voice too. That girl. Snow Patrol. Oh, they were good. They had a string of songs. Yeah. Some people call them wimpy. Yeah. I call them wimpy. They were a heavier band that went wimpy, but I love those songs. Where were they from? They weren't from America. They were from... They were England. Were they England? No. No. Can you name your song? It was up, it was like fucking up around Norway. It was up in that region, I think. And they did that song, the Beyonce song too. Oh, yeah. Yeah. They were good. Space Hog. Space Hog. They had a couple of hits. What was their big hit? That's a good song. I just heard that the other day. And if I cry for me, I cry for you. It's because of you. I can't make out any lyrics on that song at all. Maybe in the meantime, yeah, no. It's an easy song to do a concert then, right? Yeah. He's a mumble. That's in the last Guardians of the Galaxy movie. That's right, which we watched the other night. It was okay. It was okay. It was entertaining. It wasn't the worst. But they tried too hard with the music videos. They inserted songs in spots they didn't really need to, and they were really pushing that. The lead singer of Space Hog actually dated Liv Tyler for a while. Oh, good for him. Yeah, right? 1994, the Spice Girls. She's got her father's mouth, you know. Almost. I thought she's got almost her father's mouth. She does, yeah. She's a pretty girl. The Spice Girls were formed in 1994. Yeah. Static X was formed in ... People that grew up in the 90s, they know. Well, if they listen to music more than new kids on the block and fucking Spice Girls, they know Static X's. Storyville. Storyville is the two dudes from Stevie Ray ... From Double Trouble. Oh, really? Stevie Ray Vaughan, yeah. So it's a bass player and a drummer. Yeah, that's who it was. Who was the Stevie Ray Vaughan in Storyville? Well, I don't know. I think it might have been more than a three-person band. Yeah. Now, Lou. Mark disappeared from the screen. He gets to go to the bathroom, whatever, but sorry he's going to miss this. Why would a record label not pick up this band, right? The name of the band is Swallowing Shit. So we went from Septic Tank to Swallowing Shit. Why would somebody not pick them up? I wouldn't. I would. I mean, come on, take a chance, people. Let's take a chance. It's not as creative as the Jizz one. Jizz drinkers? It's not as clever as that. It's not nearly as clever as the Jizz one. I mean, yeah. System of a Down, never understood. Never got that one. Never got them. That was a band? System of a Down is a band, yeah. I never got them either. My ex liked them a lot. Mark, your camera's out. I know. I just got back. Hold on. Oh, okay. I got to do my hair and all that stuff. Are you shirtless now? Please, no. Does he have a bathroom in his studio? No, I got to go down a flight of stairs. Don't knock the fucking statue over again. That's right. The statue of Fatima, what icon was it? The Virgin de Guadalupe. The Virgin de Guadalupe. I paid handsomely. I bought a new one. Was she in the half shell like Mary? Yeah, clams on the half shell, yeah. I must repay the compliment. Mark's wife is a very pretty woman. Yes, she is. Thank you. Thank you. But I had to repay the compliment. I'm not a lurker on Facebook. His post came up or something, and I just said, let me see. And I said, oh, wow. That's Mark. Good for you, buddy. You had a friend. They're allowed to look at your page. That's right. So Mark's wife is a very, very pretty woman also. And Lou's executive off of LinkedIn. He's back on LinkedIn, women. I'm single again. Lou's back on LinkedIn again. Look out. Looking for executives. Oh, you executives. I'm kind of lowering my standards. Oh, okay. You go a little below. You go in management, upper management. From executives to upper management. Basement to basement. Oh, you're going for the mailroom girls. This is what it's coming from. I oversee a mailroom, please. I take that as an insult, Scott. I oversee the mailroom. Mark, did I tell you that the group Swallowing Shit was formed in 1994? Did you hear that one? I said we went from the septic tanks to the Swallowing Shit. If you were a record label, wouldn't you pick them up? They had to have been hardcore like Black Flag. That's all I could think, you know? In System of a Down. I never got them, Mark. I like some- Like, what the fuck, dude? I heard a two-hour interview with the singer. He is so eloquent. He's a smart guy. Yeah, he's trying to be like Frank Zappa. I just don't like... It's like when you take metal, but you're not really metal. You know, it's like... And finally- Wait, what was that song? La, la, la. That was a good song. I heard one song from them on the radio, and that was okay. Yeah, something. La, la, la, la. La, la, la, la. La, la, la, la. La, la, la, la. La, la, la, la. But that's what your show sounds like when you have the meat sweats, so you should like it, you know? Sweating like an illegal crossing the border. Your poor headphones. Oh, my God. They have sponges underneath the top of my headphones. Fucking sponges. And finally, formed in 1994, Tenacious D. Got it. Wow. Yeah. Jack Black. Jack Black? Yep. And what's the other guy's name? Very funny, dude. Talented dude. His humor was one, it was very one-dimensional, like most of them were, like Adam Sandler and, you know, one-dimensional, but funny, but funny. Lou, you and I have a mutual friend that looks like the other guy in the band, right? Don't you agree? Yes, we do. Is that Perry? No, I know. It also looks like Black Francis or Frank Black from the band. That's right. That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They had a lot of talent. It gave, it showed everybody that Jack Black actually is like musical talent. Very talented, yeah. But they cover things. They mimic, yeah. Bands that broke up in 1994, DJ Jazzy, Jeff and the Fresh Prince, gee, that's too much. Well, well, well, what's his name? Will Smith figured out that all I have to do is buy songs from other people and change the lyrics and change a little bit of the tunes, and I'll make millions off of it because these suckers will pay for it, and they did. I give him credit, but it was junk. It was just nothing original. He just literally, forget me nots, he took and did the Men in Black theme, right? The one song he did, it was about being a single father, and he sampled, I liked it, but the DJ Jazzy, Jeff stuff was actually creative. I liked it. It was okay. Dramarama, that's a New Jersey band, aren't they? Yes, it is. Yeah. I'll give you guys, I'll give you tunes, I'll give you anything at all. Marry me, marry me, marry me. Todd Stockman likes Dramarama, I believe. Blondie drummer, Clem Burke on drums. Ah, good one. Wow. Good one, Lou. Great drummer. He was great. There you go. I don't know. This band broke up in, I don't know, I was pretty bummed out. Guns N' Wankers, that's right in. I'd sign them in a minute. That's right in front of me. They broke up in 94. That's the real Guns N' Roses. Guns N' Wankers. I'd sign them to a 10 album deal. Right? But evidently they didn't get along, so, you know, success was short. Took them 13 years to record now and it sucked. Guns N' Wankers. The 80s, they had a couple, this group had a couple pop hits in the 80s. Level 42 broke up in 1994. Oh, yeah. Something about you. Yep. And there is something about you, baby. They got a great bass player. Yeah, great bass player. This was a sad day in 94 when the new kids on the block broke up. But they're back and they're packing them in. For the fourth time. Yeah, good for them. They're doing it. Make that money. That's the boy band stuff I didn't get. I don't know. I don't know why this band broke up. Nirvana broke up in 94, but I don't know why. Well, they could have done a Genesis and gotten the new singer. Yeah, I don't know why they broke up in 94. They fired. Oh, that was bad, Lou. What did he say? The clean singer. The clean singer got fired. Oh, jeez. Oh, man. I can't think. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The clean singer got fired. I can't take it. It's going low. Lou comes out with a masterpiece of a joke. The clean singer put the vinyl on fire. Nothing sacred anymore. Oh, my God. Okay. Oh, my Lord. Pink Floyd broke up in 1994. Jeez. Okay. This band finally broke up in 1994. The Staple Singers. The Staple Singers. I'll take you there. They were great. Respect. But think about it. I mean, they were together in the 60s. Yeah. But forever. Yeah. Right? They actually broke up. In 94, they finally called it quits. Pop Staple had been long gone. Marvis Staples was long gone. Like, who were they at that point in 94? And Elvis went on a successful solo career. Yeah. So, like, who were they in 94 by that point? Didn't she have a comeback? She had a comeback. Jeff Tweedy produced her. Jeff Tweedy of Wilko. Yeah. Whitesnake broke up in 94. Gee, too bad. I know. I know. You know, I did like them, but I didn't give a shit when they broke up. No. No, nobody. They were good for them. Yeah. And Winger. Winger finally broke up in 1994. I didn't mind Winger. I didn't mind them. Great musicians. Great musicians. Now, Kip Winger, he caught a lot of heat. Like I remember seeing a Van Halen clip of them backstage in their dressing room, and they have like a Winger, Kip Winger poster, and they're throwing dots at it and shit. And it was just him doing the fucking, like, Kip Winger was a good singer, a good bass. He played the bass, right? Yeah. Yeah. You know, had a look. They were a good band. He just was too pretty, and he danced like he did the fucking ballad. Listen. He was a ballad dancer. He kind of pranced around. Yeah. I follow him on Facebook. He has a lot of humor about it. He knows. No, he does. He does. And he had tragedy, like I think, like I did, and I'm not comparing us, but I think I was better looking than him back in the day, but it's just me. I'm just saying that. At the very least, you're a nicer guy. Yeah. Yeah. I'm not as rich as him, but maybe he's still, I don't know if he's even richer. And Lou, Lou, who was on drums for Winger? Remember that? Rod Morgenstien from the Dixie Dregs. Was he the original drummer or did he join? No. He was with them from the beginning. Really? Yeah. Okay. So all those. I'm going to say this, though. Nothing against, I mean, going progressive to that, I'm sure it was a nice paycheck for Rod. Yeah. It's like on jazz to rock. You can actually make money. Who had the Winger t-shirt? Was it Beavis? Oh, shit. Yeah. They're the ones that kind of started the backlash against Winger. That show. I should get a Winger t-shirt. They did those videos where they made fun of it. Well, I saw a thing on Kip Winger and he lost his wife to breast cancer and he went through a bad time. So I kind of have a kind of a thing like, you know what, dude, good for you, man. And he's a working musician. This guy tours. He plays probably 200 days out of the year. You see pictures of him. He's in some days in wherever, you know, and he just has a positive attitude on life.

The Growing Culture War Around Bitcoin
"Our feature today is entitled, DeSantis and the Growing Culture War Around Bitcoin. This week, CoinDesk published one of the most thought -provoking and balanced articles on Bitcoin mining I've ever read. The report is focused around the Greenwich Bitcoin Mining Company in upstate New York, which was at the center of a protracted media cycle last year after environmental activists claimed the facility was boiling the waterways and poisoning delicate ecosystems. Those claims went on to influence an actual policy decision by the governor of New York, restricting Bitcoin mining in the state. The thing is, most of the worst claims about Greenwich were straight up wrong. CoinDesk's Nick Day and other reporters took a trip up to Dresden in upstate New York to take the temperature of the lake and speak to the locals, finding that not a single lawmaker visited the Rust Belt town or spoke to its mayor before drafting what is essentially a freeze on new Bitcoin miners. Most of the Bitcoin mining debate today is centered around the Bitcoin network's environmental impact. Greenwich became a lightning rod because before the company moved equipment into the plant that now uses natural gas, it was deactivated, meaning when the miners were turned on, they weren't just drawing on electricity that would have been produced anyways, but actively releasing fresh so -called carbon into the atmosphere. The Bitcoin network uses as much energy as a country like Norway, and trying to wrap your head around whether that is or isn't worth it often comes down to your point of view on how you value permissionless money. Individuals can certainly make up their minds on the matter, but how a state should treat Bitcoin, for instance, whether mining should be encouraged or banned, is a societal -level conversation involving politicians, stakeholders, and those affected. In a behind -the -scenes account of how the story came to be, Day wrote that he expected locals to hate the plant. He and his team had heard that Greenwich was pumping pollution into Seneca Lake and creating incessant noise, a claim that was also debunked. Instead, the CoinDesk team found that many in the town and surrounding areas supported the upstart business. Although Greenwich created a relatively small number, every job counts in a town like Dresden, which has a population of just 296. In fact, a few complaints about Greenwich lodged by locals came from so -called cottage people, the wealthy out -of -towners with vacation homes on the lakeshore.

The Breakdown
Can Bitcoin Avoid the Partisan Curse?
"Today on Long Reads Sunday slash Saturday, where I want to start is with some further analysis around Ron DeSantis's announcement that he was a running for president and B in so doing was hoping to protect Bitcoin. Because this isn't a political show, I didn't get into the politics of DeSantis in America, although they are, of course, very complex. Plenty of people have pointed out that his focus on the freedom that Bitcoin creates is perhaps inconsistent with some of his other positions. But holding aside specific policies, there's also questions of what his embrace of Bitcoin suggests about how it fits into the larger partisan framework. CoinDesk's Daniel Kuhn wrote a piece this week called DeSantis and the Growing Culture War Around Bitcoin. Daniel writes, This week, CoinDesk published one of the most thought provoking and balanced articles on Bitcoin mining I've ever read.

Prince Harry Meghan and her mother were pursued in their car by photographers in New York City Tuesday night, their spokesman calls it near catastrophic, the NYPD calls it challenging. At one point they ended up at the 19th precinct where they got into soup charon Singh's cab, who also doesn't call it a chase. And all of a sudden paparazzi came out of Norway, started taking pictures. He says Harry and Meghan were nice. It's kind of crazy and stuff like that. The Gabby says they asked to go back to the precinct, the ride lasted ten minutes, and they were generous on a $17 fare. They gave me a 50. I mean, while I'm going around the block, that's more than enough. The NYPD says they were assisting the private security team, protecting the royals, and there were numerous photographers, but they arrived at their destination. Julie Walker, New York.

Who Blew Up the Nord Stream Pipeline?
"How would you describe the blowing up of the Nord stream pipeline? Let's think about this. You've got this giant pipeline. There's no stream one, by the way, and one stream too. And they stretch 760 miles from the northwest coast of Russia all the way to a place called lubman in northeastern Germany. And somebody put explosives, and this was around the area where the pipeline goes close to Norway. And boom, blew up the pipeline, the pipeline has been crippled. It's been damaged. And I think there's only one word or two words to describe what happened international terrorism. Somebody did that. And it's either, well, I suppose you could also call it an act of war. But it's one or the other. Now, when this first happened, there was almost a kind of unanimous chorus in the western media, the Russians did it. And on the face of it, this is absurd. The Russians benefit from the Nord stream pipeline, they pushed hard for the building of the pipeline they negotiated and got the deal with Germany. They make a lot of money off the pipeline. It creates also politically German dependence on Russia. So the Russians have no reason to blow up the Nord stream pipeline. Well, the western press was like, yeah, well, they do that. They're doing it because they want to make it look like we did it. So they're doing it to score points. And even though it's kind of like someone beating themselves up in the face and then saying, oh, you know, my boyfriend abused me. So they were implying that this is Putin's motive for doing this. Well, it was never really all that believable, but these days much of what we hear on the western price is not believable. In fact, it's propaganda that is sown by the intelligence agencies.

"Also in The Washington Post this morning in the wake of the Ukraine war. The U.S. and allies are hunting down Russian spies. You know, you wonder what the intelligence analyst in Richmond, who was hunting down traditional Roman Catholics at attending Latin mass, might have been doing if they were hunting down Russian spies. Over the past year, as western governments have ramped up weapons deliveries to Ukraine and economic sanctions against Moscow, the post reports. U.S. and European security services have been waging a parallel visible campaign to cripple Russian spy network. The German case detailed above, which also involved the arrest of the senior official in the BND, Germany's foreign intelligence service, followed roll ups of suspected Russian operatives in Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Poland and Slovenia. 400 suspected Russian intelligence agents, many of them with diplomatic cover expelled. So what do you know? The Russians are still spying. The Chinese buy a lot more than the Russians do, but all the bad guys spy and their rains as well. New

Dr. Steven Quay: The Silver Lining of Omicron Is That It's More Contagious but Less Lethal
"Doctor Akron It appears from the early data and I understand science evolves all the time I actually believe in the scientific method But it appears from the early data that aron may be less lethal although probably as contagious if not more those variables aren't necessarily correlated one to one there Is this potentially Is there a silver lining here in that you can catch this virus now You may have a lesser chance of dying than say other more lethal variants and you'll develop a sense of natural immunity and can not possibly be the first kind of breach into some sense of herd immunity where we can finally just start to live with this thing and not panic about every new variant Dan if you want a career in science call me up because that's exactly the summary of this particular virus It's amazingly infectious So it is now the number one virus in terms of the number of people you can in fact these will used to be the number one with about ten people per infective person But I mean I call it the sneeze heard around the world because it is so contagious that you can literally fill a room with a sneeze of it and in fact everybody restaurant in Norway where I believe one person dined before Christmas and there were a 170 cases from that one person in a Christmas party going on there But the absolute also good news is this virus really likes to live in the nose the back of the throat and it goes about four times faster than delta in that space It does not like the deep lungs where pneumonia where it gets into your bloodstream where the real bad acting is So it is absolutely a silver lining I think that this probably everyone may get this given where we are in terms of it being winter you're indoors a little more and it is so

See that it's different and they respond to us and last time we had a performance program in that space too so we had three performances in. That was really interesting. You were also at the san francisco art book fair and yes. We were ex contemporary in miami. Yes thank you. I can research the internet. It's good yeah. You ended up in san francisco after all. It's good yes that was really fun and also ex will also nice. Yeah now there. Is this funding. That search for artist. Run because we don't have the economy to do that than we are not so then we also don't have to sell at the art fair which means that we can really take a risk and with showing performance or different artists. That we know are not really going to sell because we are so new in that market. We don't expect to sell anything in a place where we don't know the public. That is just not going to happen by just getting more and more jealous and envious of your life's up there. I swear. I i need to somehow get up there really like coming to norway students. So maybe you're just stay. I would love to get a teaching job up there. And i will stay there the rest of my life. There'll be magnificent. I would just drag my wife kicking and screaming up there. We need to happen. I would love it. Because i've even looked at some of the schools that are in norway as will the art schools and they're very impressive as far as like art schools.

I wanna hear really and the artists raised. The artists organization have worked on for more than one hundred years to have stipends and funding. And be able to. You know like when you're showing place you get compensated for that but also. There is wide range of artist run galleries because of that in norway more so than i think in. Us you is very much a private jaap realistic. Yes and my months. So you have this. For example. The drawing association has a gallery that shows drawing based paper based work old organizations. Have this and also you have organizations for each part of the country and in the partner country do you have this art centers that show local but also international so there is this network of artists run places artist run by these organization but also by an an artists are making their own galleries. It's amazing. I wish i was born there but alaska was not all right. Let's try and wrap this up So generally have two last questions. I take it you've listened to some podcast before so you know the questions. Not that i want to say. I haven't really talked about lucas. I yeah you ski. When i asked you about what you were doing.

Hey we wanna do this. We had this like new york attitude like go ahead and do it and make it yourself. So what we did is we made. This thank locus and locusts is really an artist run place that can happen anywhere at any time and we have curated exhibitions and had it in different galleries and then we also started to go to art fairs such as we have been to close moscow in moscow. We have been in columbia an art fair. They're in the country and we have been with other places. There was some other places. Anyway we have been to art fairs in the reason. Also why we do. That is because there is some funding for artist run galleries to go to art fairs. There's a specific funding for that way. I'm sorry you will have funding just to send people to go to art. Fairs are just well noncommercial yes. I am so bitterly jealous. I swear okay go on but this is a great opportunities so we go to an art for for example in moscow the moscow offer and then we have our locus galleria there and we bring some other artists and ourselves so it's like a group exhibition and our take on creating something in art..

It's not something that will some welcomes you with open arms. I lived in new york for ten years and i moved back to norway and the reason why took this curatorial studies because i really had to learn about the art world. I really have to get into the art world. So what i did was. I had five different jobs at five different galleries and was really talking to everybody and going to all the openings and it was really really worked hard to get into the art world. That is nothing unique to to norway. I've lived i've moved. I think i counted like nineteen times since i graduated high school. And every time.

And then i don't sleep you know you're nervous you think it's crap you think it's fantastic next minute and next morning it's crap again. Your sleep listened but then it just happens and sometimes it becomes kind of good works because he didn't actually have time to holly that park in integral part of whatever worked.
