Nick O'Neill says the people who made the most in crypto were rug pullers who never saw jail "Crypto is a zero sum game, and the beneficiaries are the people selling the tokens" "I wish I had understood this going into crypto, because the people that made the most were those who basically just launched rug pulls, and the majority of them did not go to jail"

John Kiriakou reveals the dog food the prison fed him tasted exactly like the beef they served every day "We got an all hands email from the warden. He says, 'So sorry, but a few weeks ago on taco night we accidentally fed you dog food. It was mismarked at the meat plant'" "The dog food was marked ground beef and the ground beef was marked dog food. The company has been fined whatever it was" "The shame wasn't that we were fed dog food. The shame was we didn't even realize it was dog food because it tasted exactly like the ground beef they fed us every day"

Nick O'Neill says if Bitcoin hits $30K MicroStrategy will get wrecked by 70% "Frankly if Bitcoin drops again, which I think it will, if Bitcoin drops to 30K, MicroStrategy's getting absolutely wrecked" "You're talking about a 60 to 70% drawdown from where it currently is, because that would be a 50% drawdown on Bitcoin" "People who buy these things feel like it's a sure thing and they're making 11%, but their asset went down by 20%, they're not feeling great"

John Kiriakou reveals the CIA deliberately hires people with sociopathic tendencies "A CIA psychiatrist once told me that the CIA actively seeks to hire people who have sociopathic tendencies, not sociopaths, because sociopaths have no conscience" "They can blow right through a polygraph exam, but they are impossible to control" "People who have sociopathic tendencies do have a conscience, but they're willing to work in legal, moral, and ethical gray areas"

RyQuant says the Fed isn't independent and tells the story of Reagan ordering Volcker to stop raising rates "People like to think the Fed is independent of government, it's a private thing, but come on" "Reagan, when he was running for his second term, about to go on stage, Paul Volcker was backstage. Reagan goes up to him and says you gotta stop raising rates" "That was when Volcker took rates all the way up to 20%. The Fed chair is picked by the president, these are not exactly independent organizations"

Pio says Satoshi's vision is the lowest IQ take in all of Bitcoin "I can't stand the Satoshi's vision people. That's maybe in my opinion the lowest IQ take out of everything" "First of all you didn't know what Satoshi's vision actually is, you read one white paper about how it's peer to peer cash" "Whatever version of Bitcoin that is just isn't built yet, and it's still super duper early"

John Kiriakou reveals the two psychologists who designed CIA torture got $108 million and never went to prison "James Mitchell and Bruce Jessen are probably the most infamous. They were two contract psychologists brought into the CIA to actually create the torture program" "After we captured Abu Zubaydah in Pakistan and sent him to the first secret prison, they were the ones who went out and actually tortured him" "And what they ended up getting was 108 million dollars of the taxpayers money"

Franklyn Wang says Liquid's trading fees are 10x lower than Robinhood at 7 basis points vs 65 "On Robinhood if you buy Bitcoin, you're paying a fee of 65 basis points. You're also paying spreads. On Liquid you're paying 7 basis points, which is about 10x lower" "Coinbase's fees are even higher. Coinbase fees might be up to 130 basis points for very, very basic trades" "So our fee structure is like 10x lower"

Kevin Hart admits he trash talked Dwyane Wade so badly the man dropped 30 on him out of spite "Dwyane Wade, we were killing them in the first half and I was talking crazy to Dwyane. I told him he had prosthetics for calves, I was attacking his body shape" "Philadelphia, we breed real men. I was really going ham" "He looked at me and said you remember everything you said, and he went on to put on the show. We ended up losing. I left early, I didn't want the fans to react to what I was doing"

John Kiriakou reveals he was the only person sent to prison over CIA torture despite being the one who exposed it John: "I was sentenced for 30 months, I did 23 months" Jack: "How many people involved in the torture program, the creation of it, acting out specific torture, covering up the program, were sent to prison?" John: "Exactly zero. I was the only person in any way associated with the torture program who went to prison, and I was the one who blew the whistle on it"

John Kiriakou says America holds 25% of the world's prisoners with just 5% of the world's population "The United States has 5% of the world's population.

We lock up everybody" "Congress creates 500 new felonies every decade. 50 new felonies every year" "These are new laws where something that was legal a year ago is suddenly illegal"

Ex CIA officer says Facebook being founded one day after a secret surveillance program died is barely a coincidence Jack Neel: "The government once had a DARPA program called Lifelog built to track every email, every photo, every location, every purchase a person made all in one place" "They killed it on February 4th, 2004. The next day Mark Zuckerberg filed the LLC for Facebook Incorporated" "Scale of 1 to 10 how much of a coincidence is that?" John Kiriakou: "A one or two"

Easy says SBF is the sole reason people lost their livelihoods and even killed themselves "You're pretending that you did nothing in the grand scheme of things, you absolutely did a lot wrong" "You're the reason that these people lost livelihoods, you're the reason people killed themselves, it's insane" "You are the sole reason for your own actions. You did this, you caused this, you are at fault regardless if you want to admit it or not"

Steph Curry reveals Bob Myers told him to shoot 15 threes a game and he thought it was insane "Bob Myers was the first one who told me, yo you should shoot 15 threes a game. I was like, what?" "You know how hard it is to get 12 good looks up? But he was one of those, like why not? The math says 15 threes for you is great"

Easy says Apple lost the plot and should just license a model from Anthropic or OpenAI "It just feels like Apple's lost the plot. If I'm Apple I'm gonna go way harder on infrastructure, tech products, I'm not gonna be pushing AI" "Why not just hit up Anthropic and be like, 'Yo, let us use your model.' Mythos is obviously gonna be massive, OpenAI's IPOing" "They work with Gemini, Gemini is not even bad but this is such a bad experience that I have such little interest in anything to do with it"

Matthew McConaughey reveals how letting one car merge in traffic gave him a neighbor watching his house for life "Two-lane highway, traffic jam, moving 5 mph. A lady was waiting to get in. Everyone wants to get forward as quick as possible. I slowed down, let her in" "15 minutes later, I'm right behind her. As I approach my house, she pulls in the driveway right before me. I get out - it's my neighbor" "I didn't know it was my neighbor. But I got somebody watching over my house from now on because I let her in. Did I do it hoping to get a neighbor on my side? No. Did I get an army on my side? Yeah"

Easy says SBF would be worth $165 billion today if he hadn't gotten caught but he's still a piece of sh*t "SBF's investments were some of the best in the entire world. If SBF was not caught he would be worth 126 billion dollars today" "500 million invested in Anthropic at a 2.5 billion dollar valuation, a 165x return. An indirect stake of 225 million worth 15 billion, this dude would be worth over 165 billion" "That doesn't stop me from thinking the guy's still a piece of sh*t. The guy was a good investor, but him pushing for a pardon is so ridiculous"

Steve Nash breaks down the stat proving Steph Curry is the most dangerous when he doesn't have the ball "Over a certain period of time in your career, your team's rim attempts when you're on the floor are 45% of your shots. That's not from you, that's from your man chaos" "When you're off the floor it's down to 27%. So your influence is 18 percentage points on rim attempts, and that's not from you" "That's just people's respect for your gravity. They don't want to leave your body"
