#09 - Adam Curry: Can't Stop the Signal

Nov 11 2021 • 2hr 26m

Show Notes

Today's guest is legendary broadcaster turned podcaster Adam Curry.
Adam has had an extremely rich, unique, and interesting career in media.
What began as pirate radio in Europe during his teens led to becoming a popular MTV VJ as well as several entrepreneurial ventures in the early days of the internet. Later on, he was one of the first to use and popularize the new medium of podcasting, defining in part what podcasting is and how it is best understood.
Since that time, Adam has been a strong advocate for the value for value model of content publishing, whereby fans and listeners contribute what they believe the content is worth, rather than relying on potentially censorious advertisers.
Most recently, these efforts have been made far more frictionless than ever before, with the advent of bitcoin's lightning network, and Adam has been instrumental in popularizing - and contributing to the development of - the possibilities for immediate and virtually free streaming payments.
As a result, Adam has once again become one of the primary forces in pushing a new publishing and communications model forward, which prioritizes freedom of expression, and fosters a more direct and honest relationship between creator and audience.

This podcast should at the very least blow the lock off the hatch over the rabbit hole and move the Bitcoin sceptics in my life a Bit closer to the glow of the orange oracle below. Thanks for the fun. Enjoyed the ride.
