Hello Brother,
I like Jamison Lopp, but he is not a progressive person. If your intention is to have a progressive podcast, I recommend having conversations with people who study human rights, equality, and socially responsible political systems. Many Bitcoiners start with Bitcoin and work backwards to a set of tenets that really don’t support their conclusion. One should the conversation start by sharing an understanding of plutocracy, of elitism, of the traditional power of corporations and monopolies over the masses. Your podcast should include conversations about labor struggles, about the dangers of austerity, about the finance/insurance/real estate sectors and their tactics to extract rents from the people. Let’s discuss US imperialism in Central America in the 80’s. Let’s discuss resource and labor extraction from third world countries in Africa. Let’s discuss managed democracy and the rise of inverted totalitarianism. Let’s discuss the works of Noam Chomsky, Michael Hudson, JS Mill, Sheldon Wolin, Richard Wolff, Brian Czech, Chris Hedges, Alex Vitale, Tim Parsons, Gore Vidal, Paul Craig Roberts, etc. Bitcoin is the most liberal economic system that has ever existed, and it is part of the answer to many of the criticisms put forth by Marx, Rocker, Trotsky, Lenin, and Kropotkin.
