Ep 120F*cking magnificent stuff man. 10/10 (JWP120)

<p>On New Year's Day 2009 my dad died. Within two years I'd inherited capital I had no idea how to manage. What followed was 17 years of expensive decisions — wealth managers, angel investing, real estate, and Bitcoin, you name it, and I've had a crack at it, whilst recently I've been through a 60% drawdown that brought everything into sharp focus. This episode is the honest story of what happened, what it cost, and what I built from it. Including the text message exchange with a close friend — right at the hardest moment — that has became the foundation of everything I now share. Sound Money. Sound Mind. Sound Marriage. This is The Durable Man. If this resonates, please reach out: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p>

Ep 119What is Cognitive Sovereignty? - Andi Pitt (JWP 119)

<p>In this episode of the podcast I was joined by Andi Pitt, a venture capitalist in the Bitcoin space, and former member of a cult. She discusses the concept of mind control, its prevalence in society, and its implications for individual cognitive sovereignty and democracy. This was a truly mind-bending conversation. We discussed cults and mind control, the Iranian regime, education as a tool for indoctrination, the idea of cognitive sovereignty, Bitcoin and personal freedom, VC in the Bitcoin industry today, and finally the impact of meditation with self-awareness. So much to learn from someone like Andi. </p> <p><strong>Timestamps:</strong> </p> <p><strong>0:00</strong> Introducing Andy and the topic of mind control </p> <p><strong>0:57</strong> Andy's experience growing up in a cult </p> <p><strong>5:56</strong> Finding a framework to understand the world </p> <p><strong>7:19</strong> Do evil people know what they're doing? </p> <p><strong>12:14</strong> Humans are programmable for survival </p> <p><strong>15:51</strong> Seeing mind control everywhere </p> <p><strong>20:08</strong> COVID-19 and global mind control </p> <p><strong>23:01</strong> Cognitive sovereignty and democracy </p> <p><strong>33:00</strong> The nuanced role of meditation </p> <p><strong>44:58</strong> The value of uncorrelated assets </p> <p><strong>Reach out to Andi:</strong></p> <p>Nostr: npub1tlvvdgm4csch9x3m0r3qsrll7zsaccl49c4gdz5qz9g3jz33l92ss4gp7z</p> <p>X: <a href="https://x.com/1andipitt">https://x.com/1andipitt</a></p> <p><strong>Reach out to me:</strong></p> <p>Email: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Best</p> <p>Jake</p>

Ep 118How To Leverage OpenClaw - Roland (JWP 118)

<p>In this episode I spoke with Roland. He run's me through how he's used OpenClaw, and Bitcoin, to create an open‑source personal assistant, that runs on its own LN‑VPS server, pays for AI model usage via Pay‑Per‑Q, and can autonomously spawn new agents to handle tasks like email, GitHub, and continuous research. He also explains how Alby’s self‑custodial Alby Hub ties all Lightning‑enabled apps together, making Bitcoin the native currency for everyday software. Listeners will learn how to boost productivity, automate workflows, and build Bitcoin‑first products using always‑on AI agents without sacrificing privacy. The future is already here, most just don't realise it yet…</p> <p><strong>Timestamps</strong>:</p> <p><strong>0:00</strong> Welcome and Roland's Bali Bitcoin Story </p> <p><strong>1:18</strong> The Rise of Open Claw </p> <p><strong>3:36</strong> Setting Up a GitHub Account for Open Claw </p> <p><strong>6:08</strong> Autonomous Agent Onboarding with Bitcoin </p> <p><strong>11:49</strong> AI as a Tool for Productivity </p> <p><strong>17:56</strong> AI, Sound Money, and Human Potential </p> <p><strong>20:05</strong> Open Claw: A Personal, Always-Online Agent </p> <p><strong>25:40</strong> How Roland Uses Open Claw Day to Day </p> <p><strong>30:06</strong> Business Models for AI Agents </p> <p><strong>34:20</strong> Paying for Open Claw and AI Models </p> <p><strong>37:21</strong> The Open Source Advantage </p> <p><strong>43:38</strong> Alby's Mission: Bring People to Bitcoin </p> <p><strong>57:07</strong> Lightning Network Growth and Adoption </p> <p><strong>1:01:41</strong> Final Thoughts</p> <p><strong>Get in touch with Roland:</strong></p> <p>Nostr: npub1zk6u7mxlflguqteghn8q7xtu47hyerruv6379c36l8lxzzr4x90q0gl6ef </p> <p>X: <a href="https://x.com/rolznz">https://x.com/rolznz</a></p> <p><strong>Get in touch with me:</strong></p> <p>Email: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p> <p>Thank you </p> <p>Best, </p> <p>Jake</p>

Ep 112Applying Daoism - Scott Dedels (JWP112)

<p>In this episode I spoke with Scott Dedels—author of <em>The Dao of Bitcoin</em> and founder of Block Rewards—who's delved deep into how Daoist thinking can smooth the roller‑coaster that is life. He recounts how a basketball coach’s gift, <em>The Tao of the Jump Shot</em>, sparked a lifelong study of Daoism, which later merged with his work in the corporate world, and his discovery of Bitcoin as a tool to reclaim “time” from inflationary, attention‑draining systems. By practicing the Daoist middle‑path—doing enough without over‑forcing—Scott helped to teach me how to stay calm amid price swings, avoid the trap of endless consumption, and focus on what truly matters. He also explains Block Rewards, a B2B SaaS business that he's building, and a company with huge potential.</p> <p><strong>0:17</strong> Scott on his second Bitcoin book and Block Rewards </p> <p><strong>2:09</strong> The origin of Daoism in Scott's life </p> <p><strong>5:42</strong> Mapping Bitcoin as a thing of nature </p> <p><strong>7:20</strong> Bitcoin as a life raft or source of frustration </p> <p><strong>11:08</strong> Scott on his "fiat career" and Daoist lens </p> <p><strong>14:30</strong> The historical context of Daoism </p> <p><strong>20:53</strong> Universal truths and approach to conflict </p> <p><strong>24:18</strong> Bitcoin, Daoism, and the theft of time </p> <p><strong>31:11</strong> Solving the wealth problem with Bitcoin </p> <p><strong>41:42</strong> Block Rewards: Making money in and around Bitcoin</p> <p><strong>If you want to reach out to Scott:</strong></p> <p>Nostr: npub1eawxwqldulz8rn80jug6n63seyn8pwelm9mmu7rdt622lfj7am9qgem0rx</p> <p>BlockRewards: <a href="https://blockrewards.ca/">https://blockrewards.ca/</a></p> <p><strong>If you want to reach out to me:</strong></p> <p>Nostr: npub1ltz38gwwmmg740r5qlqjn96gth5thv5wmhkwlgqks9lu3485q7jsy6k4fh</p> <p>Email: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p> <p>Website: <a href="https://jakewoodhouse.io/">https://jakewoodhouse.io/</a></p> <p><strong>If you want to give value-4-value:</strong></p> <p>Via Fountain: boosts and all streams are split 50% with the guest</p> <p>Via Nostr: zaps always welcome</p> <p>Thank you</p> <p>Best,</p> <p>Jake</p>

Ep 111Thought Criminals - Contra (JWP111)

<p>In this conversation I spoke with <a href="http://primal.net/ContraMundum">Contra</a>, and dove deep into the concept of a “thought‑criminal”, - anyone who refuses to let algorithms and institutional “thought‑police” dictate what they believe or share. Using a recent Nostr post as a springboard, we explored why the emerging Purpleverse of Nostr, combined with Bitcoin’s monetary sovereignty, offers a practical antidote to the outrage‑driven, profit‑first models of legacy social media. Keep an ear out for insights into Contra's personal evolution - from a turbulent childhood, and a stint in the military, to a family‑centered life grounded in faith - showing how each stage sharpened his awareness of systemic control, and sparked a quest for genuine freedom.</p> <p><strong>Timestamps</strong></p> <p><strong>0:00</strong> Introduction with Contra </p> <p><strong>0:48</strong> Embracing the idea of being a thought criminal </p> <p><strong>5:45</strong> The thought police and freedom of speech </p> <p><strong>8:13</strong> Contra's military background and questioning the system </p> <p><strong>13:37</strong> The awakening moment </p> <p><strong>15:13</strong> Exercising free will at home </p> <p><strong>21:32</strong> Contra's broken home and the importance of masculine figures </p> <p><strong>27:27</strong> Free will: staying in the military vs posting on Instagram or Nostr </p> <p><strong>39:21</strong> Bitcoin, counterparty risk and the freedom to act </p> <p><strong>47:13</strong> Contra's spiritual journey and faith</p> <p><strong>If you want to reach out to Contra:</strong></p> <p>Nostr: npub14hq5lgadtyy9dhvtszq46dnl0s0xwdddqr7e32rdqqhma8a4xhsspxjjzu</p> <p><strong>If you want to reach out to me:</strong></p> <p>Email: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></p> <p>Nostr: <a href="http://primal.net/jakewoodhouse">primal.net/jakewoodhouse</a></p> <p>Website: <a href="https://jakewoodhouse.io/">https://jakewoodhouse.io/</a></p> <p><strong>If you want to give value-4-value:</strong></p> <p>Via Fountain: boosts and all streams are split 50% with the guest</p> <p>Via Nostr: zaps always welcome</p> <p>Thank you</p> <p>Best,</p> <p>Jake</p>

Ep 110Building Private Messaging on Nostr - Jeff G (JWP 110)

<p>In this episode I spoke with <a href="http://primal.net/jeffg">Jeff G</a>, it was fascinating, and lived up to all my expectations. In a world where private messaging is still vulnerable to metadata harvesting and single‑point failures, Jeff explains how Nostr’s relay‑based architecture and true end‑to‑end encryption can finally give users control over their own conversations. He also reveals a sustainable, non‑profit model that keeps the service free from ads and corporate pressure; critical for building truly censorship‑resistant communication tools.

Bitcoin Consciousness: Meditation, Spirituality, and Parenting w/ Caleb (JWP74)

<p>Caleb from the Bitcoin Consciousness community joins me to explore what it means to live as your highest self. We explore Bitcoin as a tool for spiritual growth, the healing power of meditation, and the law of attraction. We discuss what draws people to religion, how decentralization applies to spirituality, and why our kids mirror back our unresolved patterns. If Bitcoin is truth, what is it showing us about ourselves?</p> <p>Bitcoin Consciousness is a community rooted in trusting one's highest self (the "node") and aligning with the universal flow (the "creation network") to live authentically and independently. It brings together like-minded individuals who apply principles of decentralization to both spirituality and life, while helping spiritual communities understand Bitcoin.</p> <p>Bitcoin Consciousness Community Links:</p> <p>Keet: hldbtc06</p> <p>Signal: hldbtc.06</p> <p>Telegram: @hldbtc</p> <p>Nostr: Njump.me/npub1rajxkwyqud43qvrzah0460gcfjl24436m67lprarrzgu37pl03cqgjrk</p> <p>Website: <a href="bitcoin-consciousness.com">bitcoin-consciousness.com</a></p> <p>BC Community Telegram Group: <a href="https://t.me/+zAJN5yaxkqw4NjE0">https://t.me/+zAJN5yaxkqw4NjE0</a></p> <p>Bitcoin Consciousness Podcast</p> <p>RSS Feed: <a href="https://bitcoin-consciousness.com/feed/podcast/bitcoin-consciousness">https://bitcoin-consciousness.com/feed/podcast/bitcoin-consciousness</a></p> <p>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/4PJNY8E60rKw8eRNHMz5yj">https://open.spotify.com/show/4PJNY8E60rKw8eRNHMz5yj</a></p> <p>Fountain: <a href="https://fountain.fm/show/hGpTC6REnipo8MRRn5ab">https://fountain.fm/show/hGpTC6REnipo8MRRn5ab</a></p> <p>YouTube: <a href="youtube.com/@bitcoinconsciousness">youtube.com/@bitcoinconsciousness</a></p> <p>TIMESTAMPS:</p> <p>0:00 - Introducing</p> <p>1:11 - Meditation and the Law of Attraction</p> <p>8:08 - One’s Highest Self</p> <p>17:18 - New Age Spirituality </p> <p>22:20 - Bitcoin Consciousness</p> <p>28:24 - Bitcoin’s Adopters</p> <p>31:52 - What Attracts Us to Religion?</p> <p>39:01 - The Problem with Conspiracies</p> <p>44:49 - What is Conscious Parenting?</p> <p>56:14 - Kids Reflect Our Distortions Back to Us</p> <p>1:00:59 - Meditation as a Healing Process</p> <p>1:03:26 - How to Connect with Caleb</p> <p>New episodes 3x per week.
