Business Cat (Luke) of the Central Pennsylvania Bitcoiners joins us to talk about his monthly Bitplebs meetup, how he claimed the whole center of the state back in 2021, and how a region steeped in Amish and Mennonite parallel economics is producing Bitcoin plumbers, farmers, and tree guys. With home heating oil up sharply, we trade notes on heating with Bitcoin miners, from a basement S9 to plumbing a Whatsminer straight into the HVAC system, and why being a Bitcoin maximalist increasingly means becoming a polymath who learns faster alongside the plebs at your local meetup. We also get into podcasting as a cure for shrinking attention spans, Rock Paper Bitcoin and the 49th Parallel, the Book of Enoch, sassafras root beer, and why the most important meme may simply be "stay curious."       Reed's Meetup: westernmassbitcoin.com Rev's Meetup: South Bend Bitcoin Meetup: Meets the First Thursday of Every Month at Lang Lab 6:30pm Eastern Time Central PA Bitcoiners: meetup.com/central-pa-bitcoiners Find the show on nostr: npub1cvcgs83gw6pcrhvtmlf8gdqaegx93qkznwry96jteqhh2cexgkfq45rtya Reed's npub: npub1xgyjasdztryl9sg6nfdm2wcj0j3qjs03sq7a0an32pg0lr5l6yaqxhgu7s Rev Hodl's npub: npub1f5pre6wl6ad87vr4hr5wppqq30sh58m4p33mthnjreh03qadcajs7gwt3z Business Cat’s npub: npub1z9hy7a0n8zxnhgrcew2nnkr4sx6sum07exve99pqq30leujye3usgd858n Central PA Bitcoiners: npub1uul8sc3yc6vyyy86rlqhzngc593cq4js0q9k8nfeegysz0xzahxqyzwevx ⁨ Do you run a meetup and want to talk about it with us?
