    Gath­er­ing togeth­er blockchain + meat­space as well as oth­er rel­e­vant deals here. In some cas­es the links are affil­i­ate links, so I’ll earn a small com­mis­sion if you use ’em.

    Threw an audi­ble on this one after our sched­ule guest called in sick and end­ed up with a rad call. The video for­mat is a square (unusu­al) because I shared Kev­in’s fly­er, which threw off the whole ratio.
