Money is broken — and most people can feel it, even if they can’t explain it.Prices keep rising. Savings buy less. Work feels harder just to stay in the same place. Yet we’re told the system is “fine.” In this episode, we break down what money actually is, why every fiat currency eventually fails, and why Bitcoin exists in the first place — without hype, charts, or price predictions.This is a plain-English introduction to Bitcoin forpeople who are skeptical, curious, or feel like something about the financial system doesn’t add up. We cover: Bitcoin isn’t about trading or speculation. It’s about preservingtime, energy, and purchasing power in a world where money no longer works the way it should. If you’ve ever asked: “What is Bitcoin, really?” —or— “Why does money feel broken?” This episode is for you.
