ℹ️ EPISODE SUMMARY
Bram Kanstein and Will Reeves discuss why the American Dream feels broken even when its core spirit survives. Will describes Bitcoin savers as a parallel reality: people planning ahead, buying homes, and starting families. They explore how understandable money can restore agency. Will argues AI faces the ownership problem Satoshi solved. They also examine Fold's customers, Bitcoin rewards, public-market volatility, and wealth preservation.
