Episode Date: April 15, 2026

Adam Back Satoshi Nakamoto — the New York Times investigation claims to have found Bitcoin's creator. We break down why it's clickbait. Plus: Iran accepts Bitcoin and USDT for Strait of Horm...uz oil tanker tolls, Trump's World Liberty Financial meme coin disaster, and Canada's Liberal convention drops an exit tax bombshell.On this episode of the Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast, Joey and Len dig into the biggest stories of the week across Bitcoin, geopolitics, and Canadian politics.BITCOIN STORIES:The New York Times published a massive investigation claiming Adam Back is Satoshi Nakamoto based on weak circumstantial evidence like double-spacing and the word "dang." We explain why the trail is ice cold and why real Bitcoiners stopped caring about this years ago. Peter Todd, Hal Finney, Len Sassaman — the usual suspects get mentioned, but nobody's signing a message from the Genesis block anytime soon.A Bitcoiner lost over 5 BTC to a fake Ledger app downloaded from the Apple App Store. We break down exactly what went wrong, why you should never enter your seed phrase into any internet-connected device, and why Ledger's confusing app naming made this worse. This is a brutal but necessary reminder about self-custody security.Iran is reportedly setting up a toll system for the Strait of Hormuz, charging $1 per barrel of oil — roughly $2 million per supertanker. Payments accepted in Chinese yuan, Bitcoin, and USDT. We discuss whether this is real or saber-rattling and why no confirmed Bitcoin transaction has surfaced yet.Trump's World Liberty Financial token holders are getting invited to a Mar-a-Lago dinner on April 25th — after enduring a 95% drawdown. The project borrowed $75 million in stablecoins using their native token as collateral. We compare this to Terra Luna and FTX and explain why this is a disgrace.JP Morgan is launching a Bitcoin ETF at just 0.14% fees, and BlackRock is rolling out BITAS — a Bitcoin covered call income ETF. We explain why covered call strategies bleed over time using MSTY as a cautionary tale, and why you should just be buying corn at these levels instead.YouTube continues nuking Bitcoin channels — Bitcoin.com, Bitcoin All Caps, and Bitcoin Magazine all got hit recently. We discuss the broken incentive structure, bot-driven reporting, and why building on centralized platforms is always a risk.Nunchuk released an open-source CLI for AI agents to manage multi-sig Bitcoin wallets. We discuss why trusting AI with irreversible Bitcoin transactions is a terrible idea given how unreliable these models are week to week.CANADA STORIES:The Liberal Party convention featured a former Google executive proposing exit taxes and closing TN visas for Canadians leaving the country — despite the fact that he himself used those exact programs to work abroad. We tear this apart through the lens of The Sovereign Individual and explain why the state is losing control.The Liberals also pushed a social media ban for anyone under 16. We explain why this creates a surveillance honeypot and won't stop a single kid with a VPN and some Bitcoin.Rosedale residents are now paying $200/month for private security patrols after a 30% spike in home invasions. We discuss what this means for the future of policing in Ontario and draw parallels to South Africa.Three Canadian by-elections are happening today. We preview what a Liberal majority means for the next three years under Carney.🔗 SPONSORS & LINKS🟠 Bull Bitcoin — Buy Bitcoin directly to your own wallethttps://mission.bullbitcoin.com/cbp🌐 EasyDNS — Domain registration & EasyMail security.Promo Code: CBPMedia (50% off first cart)⛏️ 256 Heat — Heat your home while mining Bitcoin256heat.com📚 BTC Mentor — Bitcoin security & inheritance planninghttps://btcmentor.io/aff/90/📢 SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes every Monday night💬 Join the conversation in the comments⚡ Boost us on your favourite podcasting 2.0 app

Starting point is 00:00:00 Don't be an MSTYR. Add off the top of your Bitcoin mentor. How many times we got to talk about people losing their Bitcoin on the show before you start taking things seriously? Don't forget. It's not just about cold storage. It's about inheritance planning. It's about making sure your kids get Bitcoin.
Starting point is 00:00:19 If you pass away unexpectedly, it's making sure that everyone in your family understands what to do in a situation where you meet your untimely demise, among other things. and Nate and Ben over at BATC Mentor can help you with that in a major way. I'll put the link in the description as always. There's a number of different packages you can buy. You don't have to buy the most expensive package.
Starting point is 00:00:40 But if you're even looking for a little bit of help or a little bit of guidance from someone who will white glove you through a process from A to Z, just go pay him a visit. You'll be glad you did. I have not heard anyone who's used that service say they wish they'd gone somewhere else that they thought it was waste of money, which tells you something this day and age. So anyway, use the link in the description, go there, tell me you probably get a discount.
Starting point is 00:01:01 I don't know what it is, but I can't recommend it enough. Let's do the international stories first. Sure. Let's do domestic first. We'll do it. Okay. Because we have the Liberal Party convention, I guess, is the big one. And there's only really two topics of discussion that I want to bring up, only two.
Starting point is 00:01:19 There's probably a bunch of others that you probably want to bring up or others. But I just want to think we're going to want to talk about the same ones, if I had to guess. The social media ban for 16 years and younger. Yeah. And the fact that. we're going down this path. Talk about it often enough on access of easy.
Starting point is 00:01:36 Why this is a slippery slope. How are they going to get this information? How are they going to store it? It's going to be a honeypot for getting and then furthermore, you're forcing these younger folks into doing things that they shouldn't be doing to get access because
Starting point is 00:01:52 let's be honest, they have the least to lose and they are very resourceful. If they want to get around a ban somehow because they're geoloced, in Canada, don't get a VPN. Simply, and they'll simply pay with that VPN and Bitcoin. And then there'll be, there'll be anywhere else in the world and they'll be able to get around this.
Starting point is 00:02:09 This is just, it doesn't achieve, doesn't solve the problem they're trying to achieve, or the problem that doesn't deal with the problem they're trying to do with. It's just, it's, they're creating a problem more than anything else. The second one I want to talk about is that, that guy that showed up on stage and he was mentioning fucking from former Google CEO
Starting point is 00:02:32 like how do you go out there and say that these TN visas should be there should be a charge if you're going to be leaving Canada should be closing the program
Starting point is 00:02:43 closed the program entirely how dare you you know Waterloo the University of Waterloo in the past it may still be I'm not sure
Starting point is 00:02:52 but in the past it was highly regarded by Microsoft and other large companies they would go there they would recruit talent computer science majors and shit like that and bring them over because they needed their
Starting point is 00:03:04 skill set to help build a company. And so using these T and visas and she like is one way to get around it quickly. So how could you do that? This guy is a person that took advantage of it and he wants other people that no longer use it. If there's an option for somebody to go somewhere else, let them have that option. They don't have to take it. The one way to make things better to entice people to stay here is to make it better.
Starting point is 00:03:35 You know, if it's a better alternative to stay here, I can guarantee you the majority of people will stay here. There still have a few people leave because of some reasons, maybe weather or family, whatever. But if there's a compelling reason to stay here, they'll fucking stay here. Let's fucking make that. Don't put barriers. Let's just improve what we have here. By doing so, everything will be better.
Starting point is 00:04:00 People will want to stay here. People want to build a society. But you know what? You want to do shit like this? I'm thankful that my TFSA is zero dollars. I drained it this year. It's now officially zero. And I don't actively add to my RSP.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Everything is fucking minimal. And there's a reason for that. It keeps me as fluid as possible. It may be a day. I just fuck off. I'm gone. And I can do it. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:04:25 this guy doing the shit like this it just it kind of reinforces my thinking the way I've been doing things past a little while let him do it but I can do it but you know what you'll be left with garbage in the end and you know what I didn't he'll still be going on a he lives in
Starting point is 00:04:43 he lives in Europe or USA I think that's the thing you had Carney go on there talk about people picking vacation going to PII drinking Okinawine wine and shit like that the first chance he had to go on vacation, the very first chance, it was just this year,
Starting point is 00:05:03 he went to fucking Europe. Not the PEI, not to BC, not to Ontario, fucking Europe. You know, it's one thing to say something, it's another thing to do something. And if those two things don't drive, I look at the actions. I don't listen to the words.
Starting point is 00:05:21 The actions really drive me. And when I see actions like that, Again, I'm thankful my TFSA is zero fucking dollars and it's going to stay like that. Where do you even start with this? We can talk about sovereign individual if you want. Sovereign individual lays out obviously a broad thesis you should all be familiar with by now. If you're not, here's another example of why you should read that book about where during the decline of the nation state, countries who are ahead of the curve will stop treating people like citizens and start treating them like customers. And customers go where they are best served.
Starting point is 00:05:56 same with Capital. We've talked about that so many times on this show. And to hear someone on the main stage at the liberal convention suggests that we should gate all our best and brightest when they decide that there's no opportunity here for them and they enforce them to pay money that they never asked for. I mean, university is subsidized here for everyone, whether you're one of these retards taking social sciences that'll never net you a job where you'll be a contributor to the system. You'll wind up in a parasitic position. Or you're someone who's taking engineering. You didn't ask for the money. These people are, they're losing their minds. The boomers are losing their minds.
Starting point is 00:06:40 I think there's some element to this related to the need to prop up pensions and housing. I don't think that's really a debate at this point. And when I look at comments from this guy who, like I said, did exactly this, worked overseas, lives out of the country and gets an invite to the liberal convention as if there's just no one on the team who thinks that there might be a conflict here, like a confusion in thematic thinking. For him to say this drives me nuts, I'll say a couple more things here and I'll try and keep it cooler than I did earlier on the other show when I was talking about this. But it's hard because it's just so ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:07:20 and this guy deserves all the ridicule he gets. If we are going to force our best and brightest to stay, regardless of opportunity, why are we taking all the quote unquote best and brightest from India when they want to come here? If we're forcing our best and brightest to stay, why are we taking all the best and brightest from every single carry water in a pail for three quarters of a mile, shithole country in both illegal border crossings, family unification, whatever? Why are we taking them? Why don't we say to those countries, you should keep your best and brightest because that's what your best and brightest deserve is to be gated, locked behind a fee or a fine they can't afford when we're going to do that to our kids too.
Starting point is 00:08:02 It's not just high-paying jobs that do this, by the way. You may remember the interview I did with Mohammed Zerabian and Brian Day, two physicians, two surgeons, two surgeons actually, both of them very highly regarded in their communities, discussing how it's actually Canadian nurses that do this as well. Canadian nurses get trained here and go to the states and make double the money for a little bit longer commute. They live along the border, head into Washington, head into wherever, and make money in the U.S. instead of here and pay taxes over there and support that economy instead of ours. We've done this a number of different ways over the years, even in education. I went to teachers college in the United States.
Starting point is 00:08:41 I couldn't get in at my alma mater, Brock, because I didn't spend four years begging to work for free in a classroom in St. Catherine, instead I spent four years drinking, partying, getting ripped, and getting laid. And, you know, it turned out okay for me. But if the province had it their way, I would have gone to the U.S. and then come back here and paid a ton of different licensing fees, a ton of different testing fees, had to volunteer in classrooms again, wasted three or four years doing it, coaching sports teams, not developing my social life, not developing my personal skills. And the problem with all this is that the state is losing control. This is really at the core of the discussion. The state is losing control of all the things
Starting point is 00:09:27 they want to take for granted. One of them is the free movement of individuals, certainly those skilled individuals that they're looking for. As simple as that. It's as simple as that. I don't think I've talked about on this show before, but I'll talk about it now. This debate I'm having with my father about my daughter's RESP, he wants to open an RESP for her. I keep saying I don't want any money locked in any government account or someone at Sussex Drive is going to tell me or my kids how they can spend the money when the time comes what the taxes will be, all that other stuff. And my dad's a super bright guy. But again, like his framing, you know, the fish tank that he's in, he doesn't know, you know, if I ask him how the water
Starting point is 00:10:07 is, he just says, what water? He doesn't understand. Free money according to him. And to be honest, it was free money for a lot of people for a long time. I don't blame them for holding that view, but things have changed. And I think when you look at how much things have changed and how fast they're changing, stories like this really do demonstrate and illustrate how the people at the top view you as a tax pig for the 50 IQ Uber driver who, you know, is taking a break from delivering burritos to university kids to Google your wife while she's walking the dog, you know? Like, I'm tired of pretending like what we're doing is a good idea here as far as as tax laws, as far as tax incentives, as far as immigration and the way that all these
Starting point is 00:10:50 things work together in the cauldron. It's a foul potion. And people are tired of drinking it. I applaud people who stood up to this guy. I'm thrilled with the response overall. And I'm glad to see that people are not going to stand for this. I really am glad to see that. Everybody should have an exit plan. And I think that you're going to start seeing more and more legislation against you leaving. Your house will be taxed. I've said this to you a million times. I know you disagree. The pension will not be as easy to use abroad. You know, TFSA is a great one. There's no way they're going to let you leave with your TFSA. If you take that out, you're probably have to stay in the country for five years or something like that once you take it out. It's taxed right now. So the way it works
Starting point is 00:11:32 is it's taxed. Your TFSA? The way I understand it. If you if you keep it, if you realize, like if you sell everything for cash, it's still taxed? Maybe it could be wrong with that. Because from what I gather, some European nations have tax treaties with Canada. And the way it works is you don't get double taxed. You get taxed once. When you pull out money, like if you're earning income still in Canada somehow,
Starting point is 00:11:58 they give a business, it's taxed once by Canada and then you're, that's it. So I think that it's the same thing applies to TFSA. It's taxed, but I could be wrong. I just assume that it's taxed. We're heading the wrong direction and all this stuff. And Canada is not alone. Like, you know, there's a number of countries in Europe who are doing this too. America has not done it yet, but seems to be heading that direction given the state of affairs in the White House.
Starting point is 00:12:22 So, you know, I think just a little inside baseball, we were talking about in our group chat today, me, you and Mark, about how there's just not going to be anywhere to hide. By the time you're ready to go anywhere, like, there's going to be nowhere for you to hide. You're going to wind up instead planning on small enclaves, strong communities of well-to-do people. who are competent net producers, willing to support things going on in their local area. And you will, unfortunately, it sounds like pay for the pleasure no matter where you are, which to me is like completely antithetical to what free men and women should want. But it seems like if you go to that liberal convention video with this fucking retired, people are clapping like fucking circus seals.
Starting point is 00:13:05 It's embarrassing and shameful. So I was wrong. It's not taxed. But IRS considers TFSA taxable accounts. So depending where you go, which jurisdiction, you might get taxed. You may not. Yeah. So take that for what it is.
Starting point is 00:13:20 You're talking about the disconnect between the older people and the younger people. The best was that story from the Global Mail this past week. And I can't be published that fucking story about the Robinson's. They have a home. This is a former banker. And they have a home here in Canada. They have a home in Mexico, I believe. leave and they're talking about how things are getting more costly and this impacting their
Starting point is 00:13:44 ability to enjoy retirement. So now instead of taking six weeks, five to six weeks that they intended to go to Europe, it's now going to be reduced to a three to four week European vacations. It's tough for people like that. And I feel for them, you know, just I also feel for the same, you know, the people that are paying into their pensions. They're their CPP and shit like this that are working 52 weeks a year and they're not taking vacation because they can afford it.
Starting point is 00:14:10 And they're working two jobs. I feel for those people as well because, you know what? It sucks. It really sucks for everybody. But the disconnect, why would they publish that? Why would they publish it? Exactly that. Just set your fucking brain on fire. Like what's going on?
Starting point is 00:14:29 It's just it's trying to gaslight people. That's essentially it is there's nothing there of substance to say, you know what? These guys, fuck, they have it tough. Good for them. They made good decisions through the life. They worked.
Starting point is 00:14:46 They saved. They bought hard assets. Good for them. But the reality is the people after them, they have it really difficult as a result of lockdowns and shit like that. Now they have to suffer for not being able to put food on the table three times a day. Yeah. Can't go to the food bank because you're only able to. go there once a month.
Starting point is 00:15:10 And then you get sick, they offer you made. What kind of fucking world is this? It's sad. But this is the reality we live in, the disconnect between those that have and we have that by-election going on today times three. Going on right now, right? They're probably going to start announcing their results in an hour. Yeah, I think you're right.
Starting point is 00:15:31 I think you're right. I think nine o'clock sounds right to me. And one of the writings, Rosdale, I believe that's freelance old. riding is up for grabs. That's going to be a liberal. Another thing, like the picture of the prime minister with the candidates, like three women, one of them is in a hijab and two of them weren't born here. Like, what are we doing? What are we doing? Every day, I become more extreme in my views every day. So one of the by-elections is in Rosdale. Rosedale, Red Sea area, the only subway,
Starting point is 00:16:02 I believe, in Toronto that doesn't have any parking whatsoever. Like, it's just servicing the people over there. They used to have garbage collected at the doors. You know, that's how garbage used to be. He was just a great place, you know. Nice golf course over there as well. I saw it from afar. I never got on.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Anyways, the by-elections going on, as they mentioned. People over the residents over there, they have recently organized to hire private security firms. Why? To do patrol of the area 24-7. So 30% increase in break-ins year over year. 30% in one year in home invasions.
Starting point is 00:16:45 If you're going to break in a home, I'm going to fucking do it in Rosedale because you know you're going to get something good over there. And if you want to get in, if you're living over there, I'm not sure how many people are listening to the show living over there. You need to fork out about $200 a month to get into the action. $200 is fuck all if you live in Rosdale.
Starting point is 00:17:01 And with that, you get a security guard that patrols the area in a vehicle. and it's going to be able to respond to any alarms that go off. Also, if anything looks suspicious, they're going to be able to try to intercept it, try to deal with it, make sure the area is safer. Police obviously can't do everything. Crime is going up. So we've got to the point. We have to do private fucking security.
Starting point is 00:17:25 This is gated communities. This is the haves and have knots. What are the people that don't have it? They just got to deal with the fucking trouble police. With the break-ins, yeah. And you can't leave the front. The crime is going up. The cops are corrupt.
Starting point is 00:17:40 It's not like that's even a question anymore. There's investigations and it's a major police department's all over the province going on right now. Private security is going to be table stakes here. We're not going to, everyone's going to have private security in the next little while. Whether it's autonomous stuff in their home, whether it's, you know, three-layer bulletproof glass, whether it's industrial locks on their doors. It's only a matter of time. That's going to become the norm probably everywhere in Ontario if I had to guess.
Starting point is 00:18:07 probably most of the modern world inside of 20 or 25 years. I will point to the incredible social experiment, South Africa, where they were living in a first world nation only 20 years ago and now videos surfaced basically every day of, you know, barbarians at the gate literally and figuratively slamming cars into people's stone walls outside their compounds and trying to kill them, steal their money. Yeah, whatever, right? Like these guys, these guys.
Starting point is 00:18:36 These guys, it's just crazy to me that this is going on in Ontario. And I'm waiting for the first incident where one of the private security people kills a criminal. And the response to that, Len, I think it will be overwhelmingly positive. Why would it not be? More and more people are starting to realize that the political wins are turning against mercy for these people, whether they're in the system or in your front yard. And I think that's the way it should be. Well, the fact that we're going to have a majority government after this,
Starting point is 00:19:06 I don't think people are ready for any type of What do you think is going to happen with the majority? Do you think this is going to be like Prime Minister Carney unleashed? Or are we just going to have, okay. No. Because I don't think so. I don't necessarily think so either. No, it's going to be par for the course.
Starting point is 00:19:22 What you saw, what you've seen in the past year-ish, you're going to probably have for the next three years-ish because the NEP, they were the only one executive forced an election. the conservatives always wanted to have an election. Actually, not true. I take that back. There were times elections could have been called, but the conservatives,
Starting point is 00:19:41 and even the block, I believe, sat in their asses. But they talk a tough game. And I think for the most part, they mean it. So if there's going to be time to call election, the conservators probably will moving forward. And I think the blocks always wanting to do that. But the NDP don't. No, they're done.
Starting point is 00:19:57 They have a leader that's not elected into the House of Commons. Their press conference stage, did you watch it with Lewis? he wouldn't take questions you know the one of the biggest radio shows in Canada CFRB oh go ahead
Starting point is 00:20:12 it's one of the bigger in Canada like I mean not the biggest but it's got like a decent listenership it's able to talk and you know what it's in a GTA you're going to have a lot of orange or you know what potentially orange writings that could come out
Starting point is 00:20:25 they asked them to show up to come on the radio show after the day after he won the election Lewis he said no, we'll come in a few days. So, you know, he did CBC the day after the election, right? I think. Just do everyone you can.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Just fucking spread it in, you know, you have this jump in terms of popularity, in terms of name recognition, chomping it, try to take advantage as much as you can. But you know what? I guess he wanted to run away, given what transpired in the party with those cards they were showing off. Oh, yeah. You need to let that cool down for sure. Yeah. Let's let it hide for a little while.
Starting point is 00:21:04 I just want to bring up one interesting story about the TTC this past week. Monday last week, a portion of the line, the Western end, was closed because there was a hydraulic spill. Just three days later, Joy, a little bit further east on the line,
Starting point is 00:21:23 another hydraulic spill closed the fucking line. Like you had two hydraulic spills happen in the few days. fan and just fucking created havoc over there. Public transit the best of times is rough and the worst of times it's pathetic.
Starting point is 00:21:41 I feel bad for people left to rely on this. And even if you do, you go on it, there's homeless people in there, they fucking smell, they're pissing on the fucking ground, they're sleeping, they're robbing people on this fucking shit. The TDC is the worst of the worst. I haven't taken it in fucking decades. I don't think I'll ever take it again.
Starting point is 00:21:58 It's like Atlas shrugged right down to the trains, right? there's no one to maintain those trains. Incompetent people all the way up and down. Bureaucrats and no actual competent, you know, tool people, repair people. Not a surprise. It'll get worse in Toronto for sure.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Toronto, New York are going to be case studies in 100 years about how bad things can get and how quickly can happen. You know, the sad thing is New York recovered because in the 70s, 80s, fuck even early 90s, it was rough over there. They even, like, this is going to go into the weeds here. back in the day they used to have bullpen cars. It's kind of like a golf cart type of thing where they used to shuttle the relief pitcher
Starting point is 00:22:38 from the bullpen to the mound. And Mike Flanagan, rest in peace. He said one time, they said when he got into a bullcank car, they said, make sure you lock your doors because you're going to get fucking mugged on the way to the mound. It was that bad in New York. They fucking recovered. By the late 90s, early 2000s, things changed New York. It became a vibrant city.
Starting point is 00:22:55 People wanted to move there. People wanted to build there. And then two decades later, they elect a guy that's part of the same group that tore down shit that shouldn't probably have been. Like, it's pathetic, man. It will be a case study. Yeah, 100% it will. It's already starting. It's already starting.
Starting point is 00:23:13 It's already starting. It's already built. And then, oh, fuck it. We don't like it. All right. Anyways, let's go to the UK quickly. Dynamic prices in the UK supermarket. Did I not, do we not just talk about this on Accessive Easy?
Starting point is 00:23:24 We did. It's in the PlayStation store already. Now it's in the supermarket's in the UK. So they're getting ready for hyperinflation over there. And a lot of big retailers like Morrison's and Tesco, they're going to be rolling out something called electronic shelf labels ESLs. And this just screams of a stable economy when I see stuff like this. And this would allow for real-time price changes based on demand, time of day,
Starting point is 00:23:53 or even local weather. So if it's fucking raining outside, they may decide, you know what, fucking raise the price of something. And they could do it storewide on just simply clicking a button on a computer. No longer you have to go to re-price everything. It's done quickly. And this comes at a time when the Bank of England
Starting point is 00:24:10 released a report saying that food prices may become more fluid. No fucking shit. I wonder you what's causing all this fucking thing. Dynamic food prices. Uber does it, right? Why not do it in supermarkets? Why not?
Starting point is 00:24:24 You know, fuck, make everybody else suffer to. What will you pay for the convenience? of having fudcicles or whatever in your freezer. What is that convenience worth to you? The question isn't, the question isn't, yeah, the question isn't about, you know, whether or not dynamic pricing is a good idea. It is. The question isn't whether this is ethical.
Starting point is 00:24:43 It's not. The question is how much will you tolerate as a consumer? And I think that number is much higher than people realize it is, period. I think people will pay this stuff. You already pay prices that are too high for everything. And so this is just another thing that you're going to have to pay for. and grin and bear it. You're not going to stop buying chocolate covered pretzels or whatever your,
Starting point is 00:25:04 you know, whatever your vice is. You're going to buy maybe buy a few less of them for the same price, but you're not going to stop. You will not stop. We are a planet of secret addicts and cooperative consumers. And that's not going to change anytime soon. So these guys are ahead of the curve.
Starting point is 00:25:23 I'm looking at this is if there's going to be hyperinflation. and it's just an easy way to deal with it. So price in the morning, price in the afternoon, price in the evening could all be changed based on the value of the currency, which is changing very quickly. Yeah. That's the way I'm looking at this.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Could be too. Could be too. And more from the UK. This is just a quick piece of information. This is the UK welfare is now costing the country more than they collect in income tax. Love it.
Starting point is 00:25:54 This has never been done before. 331 billion pounds is collected in taxes and they're paying out 333 billion in welfare. And furthermore for the UK, they removed the two child limits. And that's for the government's new child poverty strategy. So the universal credit or child tax credit could be claimed with families with more than two children. Amazing. I wonder which group benefits from this the most.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Muslim immigrants. I mean, we can just say it. We can just say it. If you don't say it, then you're not helping the situation. Like, we have to start saying it. You have to start saying what the problems are. This is a problem. This is a huge issue that's going to ruin that country even faster than it's already being ruined.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Obviously. Obviously. That depends who you talk to. Like, if you listen to Simon Cowell or whatever, things are great. But they live in an area which is pretty much standard for what he sees. And how much is this going to cost individually? So if you have a kid, it's going to be 292 pounds per month for each traditional child. That's roughly 3,500 pounds per year.
Starting point is 00:27:08 So it pays to have kids, 3,500 pounds a year. Every kid child, just pump them out. Another 10, that's another 35 grand. Yeah. It's not a bad gig, you know. You just keep doing that. It's, yeah. I guess the last story we'll do is,
Starting point is 00:27:24 The U.S. looks like they may be gearing up for war. Maybe, maybe not, because the Hill reports that the U.S. is moving towards an automatic registration system for a military draft pool.
Starting point is 00:27:36 And men aged between 18 and 25 won't be automatically entered. Won't hear shit from the Me Too movement, folks. The exclusion is fine here, I guess. Yeah. Gender is very clear all of a sudden. Yeah, no doubt.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Yeah. Well, some people are saying this is just a administrative change. Previously men aged 18 to 25 were legally required to self-register, but the timing of this is kind of fucked up, given what's transpiring in Eastern Europe, what's going on in the Middle East.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Doing something like this now, it's kind of just raising alarms, they're gearing up for some sort of military draft. Who knows? Yeah. I think it's probably the case that they want to know, they want to take stock of what they have, right? I think a lot of countries are going to do this.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Our lead general is taking, a break from crying in front of the cameras to talk about how unprepared we are for a global conflict with the BBC, I think she was speaking last week. So, you know, every country now is realizing that the U.S. is no longer going to be there to pat them on the back and make sure everything's okay when the bully comes to the playground. You have to start doing this on your own. Now, the real question is, what country is going to have the intestinal fortitude to recruit the hundreds of thousands of military aged men they've led into the nation over the last 15 years.
Starting point is 00:28:56 Are they going to force, you know, Herpreet, Garpreet, Gerpreet, you know, the Brampton Man, criminal gangs, the Singh Crime Syndicate, are they going to force them to be part of the military? Or are they going to get a pass? And it's going to be you and me who are added to the military. I think we're fucked. It's a big problem.
Starting point is 00:29:15 The states increase the age to 42 from 35. two weeks ago. So I don't know what the age is here, but I'm not 42 years old. I'm older enough. You don't know what the number's going to be. You don't know what it's going to be. I'm going to see you 50.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Well, you're perfect for the meat grinder, buddy. They'll put you out there first, just like they did in Ukraine, right? Ukraine sending their, sending their governments to round up people of all ages, throw them in the fucking back of a van,
Starting point is 00:29:42 put a machine gun in their hand and send them to the fucking front lines. You need meat bags. You need, but the reality is, you're missing out on essentially doubling the enrollment by just including the other gender. Yeah, could do that too. Right. That's the easiest way.
Starting point is 00:29:58 So, uh, so there we go. Mm-hmm. That's it. Do you want to go to the rest? We ought to. We ought to. The Hamilton-Brampton man. Do you hear it?
Starting point is 00:30:11 Can you hear the minor? I cannot. No, you can't. Tuan has some new stuff coming. I think him and boom are going to come on the show to talk about some of the new stuff they have. I think at some point. But he's also doing a meetup, I believe this week in Mississauga. Boomer, if you're in the chat still, you can tell me if I'm wrong right about that.
Starting point is 00:30:26 I'll correct it. But you want to be a guy who owns 256 heat unit because it's 24, 255 degrees outside here in Hamilton. And I got this thing running beside me. It's quiet. And the heat is down right now because I don't need to heat anything. It's just mining very quietly, very efficiently, and giving me KYC free sats. with every blocked that ocean hits. Can't beat it, man.
Starting point is 00:30:51 I don't know what you're waiting for if you haven't bought one already. And if you go to Twan and tell him we sent you, he'll even give you a discount. I think, what do you say? He's like doing a 10%
Starting point is 00:30:59 end of season sale or something like that? Did he say that? I can't remember. Maybe. It's okay. It's okay. We'll figure it out. Tell him we send you
Starting point is 00:31:08 and haggle with them a bit. You got a discount. Yeah. Give him a hard time. Give him hard time. Yeah. Tell him, tell him you came from. That's right.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Tell him don't make me come there next. All right. I'll close the comments and we'll start rolling here. A couple of stories. This dude was charged by police after they closed down in illegal what is it, psychobelicillacetyne.
Starting point is 00:31:35 And it was operating under the business name Shroom Gods. Trum gods. This guy was just, it had it in the front store and everything. Nice. So in February, a search order search warrant was executed up to business resulting in the arrest of this dude. A thousand grams of this shit was in various forms of packages were taken,
Starting point is 00:31:59 and he was charged with trafficking drugs, Schedule 3 substance and stuff like that. So the guy actually fucking formed a business selling fucking drugs. Had it there, you know, playmo open, shroom guides, was arrested. And yeah, there you go. I should have checked it out one day. If only I knew, but anyways, that story. number one is 21 year old story number two is driver who posted a video online showing himself going more than 140 kilometers above the speed limits i already have been in the charge so this is so
Starting point is 00:32:29 easy car has been pounded please say they were made of the viral video that was circulating which a 22 year old man was driving a Chevy corvette he was racing a green motorcycle it's a that's a Kawasaki ninja green motorcycle the driver reached speeds of 226 kilometers in an 80 kilometer zone Oh my God, that's so dangerous. Probably too late. With help of the video. You know what? The bike is going to, fuck.
Starting point is 00:32:53 Even at 600 would fucking rip that industry. Anyways, with help of the video, they were able to identify the driver, the car, everything. And he was charged with seven offenses, including stunt driving, racing, dangerous operation of vehicle. Nothing said to hear about the motorcycle. Hopefully that guy got away. But there you go.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Those are the two stories. You got the guy, Shroom Gods versus the Chevy Corvette, racing the fucking motorcycle. The Branton man is famous for vehicular mishaps. Famous, right? The Brantan man, the Brantin man is attracted to the fast domestic muscle car in a way that the Hamilton man is not. The Hamilton man, though, is a guy who likes mushrooms, likes to take the mushroom gummies, do a little microdosing, hop on clod code, maybe, vibe of it with the AI until you run out of tokens. And then... Or do...
Starting point is 00:33:43 Yeah, go place a video. No. listen, if you're running out of shrooms, you're going to have, you're in for a bad time. I think I'm going to go with the Branton man being the racer. And I would also bet that the guy who was in the motorcycle was a guy he knew who was also picked off in the story. No, you're correct. It is indeed the Branson guy was racing. They didn't identify who it is.
Starting point is 00:34:07 And the motorcycle list is still at large, apparently. Wow. Okay. Interesting. Yeah. I'm happy for that. That was an easy way. The Branson guys.
Starting point is 00:34:16 I love the racing guys with like the machine gun sticker on the back of the windshield. Do you see those guys around? No, I haven't. They're the best. They're the best. Like the guys who are like 120 pounds soaking wet. Gut microbiome so bad that their, you know, their belly is hanging down to their fucking feet on them anywhere else.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Just ripping in their dodge neon with the fucking machine gun sticker on the side window. Would it be a charger? Perfect assimilation. No, it's not a charger. It's a shit car. the Ultima. See a lot of Ultimas to. You see him near Mac.
Starting point is 00:34:50 You see him near McMaster. I wish I drive on my way to my professional life. So, yeah, it's funny. The Ultima is notorious for one group of individuals. I know. I know. Everyone knows. Everyone knows.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Yeah. That's that. That's it. That's it. Go watch some WMBA now. What's, tonight there's NBA playing games. I have to renew my cable, my Bitcoin only VPN cable,
Starting point is 00:35:15 uh, to watch the playoffs. the playoffs start on Saturday. Raptors were in. Raptors are a five seed. So I'm looking forward to that. A lot of people thought they wouldn't make the playoffs this year, but they finished strong.
Starting point is 00:35:22 They got a couple of really good players. I'm going to definitely tune in for that. A lot of people thought the Leaves were going to make the playoffs. And how'd that go? And what happened? It doesn't really matter in the end. The Bull Decois, guys, shit on you and me about the Leafs all the time. I don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:35:35 That's the funny thing. They could say whatever they want good or bad. It changes nothing for me. But the one thing that matters in the end, there was a list released today. The NHF, franchises, the values of them. Number one, the leaves.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Yeah, of course. Yeah. And so the Rangers were up there. Canadians were. Yeah. So leaves for number one. So it doesn't really matter in the end. Like they're going to lose that on ticket sales for the playoffs, but the valuation of the company is still number one. Oh, God. What was the last time you went to a lease game? I think
Starting point is 00:36:08 2008, 2007. It was before that for me for sure. I think I've been the one least game my entire life. And I don't remember it when it was. I went two, I think two games ever in the ACC, whatever they call it now. But the gardens, the last year,
Starting point is 00:36:24 I went to four or five games. As many as I could afford. I wanted it just experiences, like, that was such an amazing place to watch hockey, the history and all that. And I just, you know, so since then, since the garden is closed, I think I watched two games at the ACC,
Starting point is 00:36:39 but a bunch of leaf games in Ottawa. Nice. Buffalo, too. I went to Buffalo to watch Leafs as well. Sabres are in this year. They're like number one or something. I don't know where they are, but they're in the playoffs for the first time in like 20 years, which is sick.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Yeah, but they have a hell of a year. Love a good playoff team. They love a good playoff team. Yeah, so there are 106 points. So they're ranked third. Nice.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Yeah. Okay, that's it. We're getting out of here. I got to edit this video and let my mother-in-law go home. If you enjoyed the show, leave a like on the video. If you didn't,
Starting point is 00:37:09 well, leave a like anyways. And come back. Come back next Monday when we're live again with more Tom Fulery. Who knows what will happen in the next seven days. but I guarantee we'll have enough for an hour and a half of content. So we'll see you then. I'll see you on Saturday, Joey.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Yeah, man.
