This podcast is a must for me every week. It now serves as a way I can mentally cleanse myself from all the robotic, templated financial advice I am exposed to. Saif is extremely articulate and he ofte s highlights things which we questioned during our childhood but were too afraid to ask. The world doesn't have to be this way. There could have been (and still can be) a much fairer and just alternative. The podcast demonstrates, repeatedly, that the system of money is broken. The quest for a better world where Bitcoin, Linux, healthy natural food, pure education, collaboration are just some of the subjects on discussion.
