TODAY'S SHOW: This episode is a recording of an X Spaces discussion with Douglas Tuman, John Bush, Stoic.XMR, BawdyAnarchist, and others about whether or not the Monero community should engage in political activism to push for pro-privacy, pro-Monero policies in the U.S. The participants debated the merits of lobbying for regulatory clarity versus focusing purely on grassroots, opt-out strategies that avoid government intervention altogether.

TODAY'S SHOW: This episode is a conversation from Porcfest 2024 about the case of Ross Ulbricht, the creator of the Silk Road darknet marketplace, and the efforts to secure his release from prison.

The speakers Sterlin Lujan (anarchist activist), Kenny Palentank (Free Ross activist), and Dan O'Neil (chairman of New Jersey Human Action), provide an in-depth analysis of the case, debunking myths surrounding Ulbricht's alleged involvement in murder-for-hire schemes and highlighting the disproportionate sentence he received.

They emphasize the changing landscape of drug laws and the increasing acceptance of cryptocurrencies, which has led to calls for Ulbricht's release - including from Presidential candidates Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of Ulbricht's case for civil liberties and the cryptocurrency community.
