    <description>Monero Talk broadcasts weekly conversations on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/c/monerotalk) with topical guests to understand what the Monero cryptocurrency is today and what it hopes to become. 
We strive to give birth to new Monero users by simply reporting on the facts in our search to answer the question--Is Monero the truest cryptocurrency of them all? In staying true to the Monero ethos, we aim to always be skeptical. While we are Monero Talk by name, and Monero devotees at heart, the intention of the show is to ultimately discover and support the one blockchain that is most aligned with the original cypherpunk and crypto-anarchist ideals that cryptocurrency was born from. And the one that is most likely to succeed at becoming true digital cash. So far, we believe Monero is the one.
Guests include:
The developers and researchers working on the open source core protocol and the cryptography behind it; 
The people building the projects and infrastructure supporting the protocol; 
Privacy advocates and people building privacy enhancing technologies;
Analysts and investors speculating on Monero's growth;
Journalists and pundits weighing in on Monero's place in the crypto-sphere; and 
Respected (sometimes controversial) contributors and community members.
If you enjoyed the show &amp; would like to support us, a donation of any size would be greatly appreciated and would mean so much!

  <itunes:subtitle>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.</itunes:subtitle>

<p>TODAY&#39;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.</p>

<p>The speakers Sterlin Lujan (anarchist activist), Kenny Palentank (Free Ross activist), and Dan O&#39;Neil (chairman of New Jersey Human Action), provide an in-depth analysis of the case, debunking myths surrounding Ulbricht&#39;s alleged involvement in murder-for-hire schemes and highlighting the disproportionate sentence he received.</p>

<p>They emphasize the changing landscape of drug laws and the increasing acceptance of cryptocurrencies, which has led to calls for Ulbricht&#39;s release - including from Presidential candidates Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The discussion also touches on the broader implications of Ulbricht&#39;s case for civil liberties and the cryptocurrency community.</p>

  <itunes:subtitle>TODAY'S SHOW: Douglas Tuman was LIVE at MoneroKon24 in Prague and interviewed Sterlin Lujan - a crypto-anarchist and contributor to the Logos Project.

Sterlin shares his background, including what led him to discover the ideas of anarchism and voluntaryism. He discusses his views on crypto-anarchism, the importance of privacy, and the potential for technologies like Monero to help people opt-out of state control.

Sterlin is optimistic that tools like Monero can gradually erode the power of the state through non-violent resistance and counter-economies. He also talks about the Logos Project, which aims to develop decentralized infrastructure for network states and autonomous political formations.</itunes:subtitle>
