Customer Reviews
Fun and Informative
I really enjoy Peter’s interview style and think he hosts great guests! The latest episode with Bunney was one of my favorites. It included a wide range of topics like parenting, govt. intervention, and Bitcoin, which resulted in a very thought provoking conversation. I always learn from Peter and I appreciate that sometimes his guests and him veer off into other subjects outside BTC because it makes the podcast feel human and natural, not robotic. Peter does a great job to steer the conversation and his enthusiasm on the topic shows.
Wow: macro Alf!!
Awesome bro
Love it
It’s such a easy listen and informative show. I like how Peter has his views but doesn’t try to prove to his guests that he is right.
