In Episode 7 of the YATA (“You Are The Algorithm”) podcast, Oshi and I celebrate Bitcoin Pizza Day, dig into value-for-value boosts, and invite “normie” questions so we can explain Bitcoin, Nostr, and Lightning in plain language. We talk meetups, circular economies, and why micro-payments change how creators and communities connect. I tee up future segments on permaculture, and we swap stories on running personal Nostr relays, on-chain vs. Lightning payments, and how tools like Start9, Umbrel, and Snort can make self-sovereign publishing approachable. We also wander through real life: childhood pre-screens, getting outdoors, travel tales (Myanmar to Hungary), first jobs, and creative side hustles—from Oshi’s HODL butter and T‑shirt preorders to my freeze‑dried fruit. Keep the boosts and questions coming—especially from newcomers. You are the algorithm, and your questions steer this show.'Nostr (open protocol)': https://nostr.com'Lightning Network (official site)': https://lightning.network'Cashu (Ecash for Bitcoin)': https://cashu.space'Fountain (Podcasting 2.0 app)': https://fountain.fm'TakeMySats (Bitcoin marketplace)': https://takemysats.com'Papa John’s (the infamous Pizza Day pies)': https://www.papajohns.com'Bitcoin Pizza Day — Laszlo’s original post (BitcoinTalk)': https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.0'The Survival Podcast (Jack Spirko)': https://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com'Start9 (sovereign computing)': https://start9.com'Umbrel (home server OS)': https://umbrel.com'Snort (Nostr web client)': https://snort.social'Liquid Network (sidechain for Bitcoin)': https://liquid.net'Raspberry Pi (single-board computers)': https://www.raspberrypi.com'Graham Hancock (author/researcher)': https://grahamhancock.com'Göbekli Tepe (background info)': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6bekli_Tepe'Kimi Räikkönen (background info)': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimi_R%C3%A4ikk%C3%B6nen'OshiGood (Oshi’s shop)': https://oshigood.us'Sats  4 Snacks (freeze‑dried fruit)': https://sats4snacks.com'Slopoganda': https://sl0pag4nda.neocities.org/'Nostr Value Pack': https://www.takemysats.com/nostr-value-pack Join us on Nostr: Oshi (npub1uzt238htjzpq39dxmltlx60vxym9fetk9czz6kddq6fhvkf4z3usy9qtrh) & Permanerd (npub1zqdpzty2mshxncqqxy2078qax6mlehsxmpx5095wtxw4tpepkr0s2ce6fj)Send an email: [email protected]
