Show Notes
<p>For the inaugural episode of the Ben Wehrman Podcast, Peruvian Bull joins me for a discussion on GameStop, Bitcoin, Crypto/NFTs, and the state of the fiat financial world. </p>
<p>The perfectionist inside of me was planning on learning how to edit audio/video before uploading so I could clean up the background noise, remove awkward pauses, etc… </p>
<p>But due to how quickly everything’s been moving in the world recently (and deciding it would also just be cool to have an untouched baseline episode so I can track quality improvement over time), we're just gonna send it without a single edit. </p>
<p>2 lessons learned right out of the gate:</p>
<ol>
<li>It appears my first nervous tic to conquer is saying "like" 10 times per sentence 😂</li>
<li>I thought using a mic meant automatic good audio quality, but the A/C in my hot AF room in Mexico had other plans. Sorry about that!</li>
</ol>
