Great Episode, Odessa is now on my travel list. Maybe you can organize another Episode about the rebuild of Ukraine, when the war is finally over? Hugs and admiration to you all!

500 Rupert speaks as much common sense as anyone I've ever heard speak from within and outside of politics. He's the embodiment of a man who is not compromised by anything. He is the sum of his own intellect and heart, equally. I am a hundred percent convinced that he is the only person who could represent the shared values and dignity we once had. Contrary to the idea that either Advance UK or Restore Britain's roots are hateful, all I hear from Rupert is genuine compassion and complete honesty. If you want to sugarcoat the solutions of how we are to exit this mess, call his views however you like. His unabridged truth cuts through all of it.

420 Great episode guys and love your nuanced take on the homeschooling experience Daz. We’ve been slow travelling and world schooling all year. From my experience over the last 5 years, homeschooling is all about tuning in to how each kid learns best. The common theme seems to be personal responsibility - both parent and child! Such a good foundation for setting your kids up as Bitcoiners if they’re not already.

303 I agree. Repair that used vehicle and eat cup ramens. It's the new smashed avocados and lambo.
I heard it said that Marco Polo bringin noodles from Asia back to Italy is BS so noodles are universal.
Ramen is Japanese. Thanks for the doomer levity again!

Fascinating episode! I recall reading that though Odessa was outside of the Czar’s proper reach, his secret police were nonetheless actively on the ground. On the note of Free City startups lacking soul - the Italian government was offering foreigners homes for $1 in Sardinia last year. I wonder if there is opportunity to negotiate with a host nation on “ghost towns” where some architecture and history already exists.

Great guest. Keep up the good work on the pod Tim!

Enjoyed learning about the past, present of a place I knew little to nothing about. So, thanks to you both and hope that there's a prosperous future there, and the place retains some of its unique qualities and charm
