I don't know how much of the reason I'm subscribed to the Patreon is because of Milo's "It's the free one" radio voice, but it is definitely some of the reason. It's not *not* my favorite part of the show.
the mention of pig butchering schemes and the fraud factories they're ran out of sent me on a rabbit hole on south east asian crime, and i'm now convinced that if you have to send delta force to kick down anyone's doors it has to be gambling operators. all these human trafficking hubs seem to be operated out of casino towns, and legalized or not, it seems casinos and horse tracks are host to all manner of crime and depravity
Was manifesting this barcelona date
Let's manifest a Trashfuture continental Europe tour
Sad apefest: the day the apes stood shill
"Warum shave-t er das poodle???"
but yeah I think it's so cool how you can take down the entire crypto edifice by asking "yeah okay: but then what" and like literally several people actually do it
Sam’s Bahamian frat house (worth $35m) is so fucking weird. Looks like a giant metal chode. What is it with crypto/ tech bros and setting up shop in the most barren, desolate parts of the Caribbean
why it's all the unscrutinizing and laissez-faire .... scenery
Gotta say, Korn was really phoning it in when I saw them at Apefest. Real shame.
that crypto art of a dollar bill with George Washington holding his head in his hands is so fucking funny to me. i’m trying to imagine what the equivalent of that would be for regular financial institutions? just walking into the Treasury to be greeted by a giant mural of a despairing Anglo-Saxon who cant find anyone who will accept livestock as legal tender anymore
A florin with Jesus with his pockets turned inside out and shrugging like the monopoly man, indicating the lack of value
Crypto scams/huckstering/scam factories(?): I'm exploring some dating apps )) Following which, 3 "Chinese women" with UK phone numbers are almost from the start, tho quite subtly, steadily, if generically, throwing in some "I'm investing in clothing stores etc, my hobby is Bitcoin short-term contract trading, my aunt or uncle (in finance) helped me." Now I'm asking them if they'll help me get rich too, and apparently I'm worthy of their secrets ))))) "The recent trend in cryptocurrencies is very good and I think you can take this opportunity to makes profits" ))) "- Are you gonna help me get rich too? - I never shared it with anyone else. But after getting to know you over the past two days, I feel that you are sincere. Maybe I'll make an exception for you" ))))
what the fuck is going on with all these brackets
Would have been funnier if he straight faced said something like president of Singapore or something like that.
Zeke sounds like he used to be the singer of King Missile
A judge saying a book sounded "made up" is the most consequential vibe check I've seen in a while
Banksy of America is one of Milo's best one liners of recent memory, I absolutely lost it.
Lmaoo I traded for one of the companies mentioned. 0 experience, can’t believe how much they trusted me
We're just lucky that SBF was only trying to become president of the US and not the Pennsylvania Railroad. He'd be unstoppable.
the rare WTYP/TF/Hell of Presidents crossover listener
I hope the soy sauce guy got the soy sauce stain out of his pants
The soy sauce guy is so fucking cool
Desperate for an update on the Zeke eyes situation re: UV Ape Rave
did they record this before the rave where everyone got blinded? I hope zeke is ok
Does SBF listen to this show? Or KJB? Bc I can't help but feel like his defense has just been "I'm a special birthday boy."
Also seeing crypto ads on YouTube while this trial is going on just leaves me feeling extra disillusioned by humanity 🙄
A few days ago the BBC had an article titled "Everyone got duped by Bankman-Fried's big gamble" and I have to say, it was a nice relaxation vein hour for me trying to get that out of my head.
btw d'you try to get into contact with Dan Olson? his breakdown of late stage GMY/BBBY truthers is ... magistral
I love getting blinded by UV lights at an ape rave
Science! If you're interested or bothered there are nifty UVB / UVB reusable cards you can carry in your wallet to test these things. Or if your new car window tint is UV opaque.
prosecution attorney: "ahem. your honor: Scam Bankman-Fraud" judge: "OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" jurors [all together]: "guilty on all charges"
fully barfsack ocrumbo it. scam bankrun-fraud
