For episode 5 of Radio Detox, I’m talking with Dovydas Joksas, founder of RSS Blue. The theme this time around is, “I don’t know what I don’t know.” We get into value-4-value, podcasting 2.0, RSS, Nostr, Mastodon, Nsotriga, and more!

Radio Detox Episode 3: Abel James
On this 3rd episode of Radio Detox, I talk with Abel James, a blues artist in the Valueverse whose music you can hear on Wavlake, Fountain, and LNBeats. He’s the New York Times Best Selling Author of The Wild Diet, and all around interesting dude. I think he’s the perfect guy to help us detox off the food pyramid…fiat music, and more.
It’s no secret Bitcoiners don’t follow conventions in money, food, or culture. We like steak, fat, sound money, and Valueverse music. Let’s wrap this all up in a
Radio Detox Episode 2: Sara Jade
Sara Jade is a great example of an artist who has detoxed off the fiat music system. She shares some great stories about that here. She’s done two live shows in the Valueverse in Phoenix at our Nostr PHX Culture Shock in February, and more recently, during bands at Bitcoin adjacent to the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville.
Do you have to leave the fiat music system? No. As Sara Jade informs us, you still kinda “have to be everywhere.” But it’s clear which system rewards musicians more—and it ain’
