Maybe regression to the meme is the reason Junseth's World isn't the number one podcast on iTunes. It's easily one of the best podcasts out there, it's earned its 1 star. But its appeal isn't for the fat middle of the meme. And that's a shame because this podcast is a voice of reason.  I like the recent consistenncy.  And Dexter's a great addition.  Keep it up!  And I'm going to keep solo-commenting on these episodes. ha

Welcome to the worst first show in the history of Podcasts. Paul Sports is on this as yet unnamed show. He prepared the notes, so get ready for a really boring show, starting with the deep depression that Paul's been going through since the BU breakup.

* Paul's turned to the illustrious mind-poop of Brian Hoffman, CEO of Shitty Shopify. He's has been picking up the slack. We re-visit a couple of the videos. You should consider watching all of them. 
Watch all of them! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwSzDUzOTgQmx-WqFIQMrMA

* Paul explores the mental health of Bitcoiners. His prognosis: not good. Is it drugs? Is it age? We still don't know. But at least it's endlessly entertaining.

* Ever wonder what happens if you break the code of the Chatham House Rules? Paul knows. He's got a Yale degree... I think. Paul also understands extension blocks. Ridiculously smart, boring section ensues. Fast-forward through this if you want laughs. Listen if you want 

* Soft fork your mom if you want soft fork. In the ephemeral, wise words of Jihan Woo, we discuss the reasons that miners do what miners do. It might be that they are rational. Then again, that might be giving them too much credit. That said, if they are rational actors, Paul throws down a few conspiracies explaining why miners might favor a hard fork over a soft fork.

*What's ASIC Boost and why do you need it? Would it have been rational for Jihan to just support Segwit? Would it have hurt his boosting prospects? AAAAASSSSSSIC BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST (Read like "Falcon Punch"). Let's be honest, ASIC boost is awesome, and you would have done the same. Blockchains aren't morality games.

*Then again the Dao of Daos and the necessity of Turing complete smart contract on a blockchain is discussed. Why oh why do we need them? Can even one man answer the question? http://imgur.com/QKlMaky

*Oh... and Drivechain. What's going on with that? Big announcement! It's basically ready. At least that's what Paul claims. So... I guess all our side chain, sofa-based dreams can come true. Me, I think it's a dream and I poop all over Paul's parade - a parade which includes the development of a prediction market. **Are prediction markets stupid?** Short answer is I think yes, Paul says they are the most important thing since sliced bread. Only time will tell.

* Paul discusses religion. He's Unitarian... Duh. God's disappoint in the backsliding Catholic Paul has become.

* What is Samson Mow's new job? Is he actually needed? Is his job literally tweeting? And what's with Ghengis Khan raping everybody? What an ass hole.

*When will Roger Ver go away? And which blockchain will survive in the end? The rest is in the show.

I hope you like it as much as Paul enjoyed recording it. That's as low a bar as I can give you.
