After dropping out of school and struggling with depression and anxiety, Sophia Amoruso's early 20s seemed bleak. However, she found solace in selling vintage clothing on eBay, which eventually grew into a full-fledged business. But in 2006, disaster struck when eBay banned her account, threatening to derail her entire operation. Undeterred, Amoruso used this setback as an opportunity to launch her own e-commerce platform, Nasty Gal. With relentless drive and creative marketing, she overcame the obstacle and transformed Nasty Gal into a global fashion phenomenon. Creds Community!

Coder Radio The Mad Botter A weekly talk show taking a pragmatic look at the art and business of Software Development and the world of technology. Magic Internet Money Brad Mills My name is Brad Mills, I am a Bitcoiner. I'm an average person, I just got into Bitcoin early. I'm not a coder, I look at this space from the point of view of a regular user. I believe BTC is the best form of money. It’s free speech money. Digital Gold. Programmable money for the age of the Internet, uncensorable, peer to peer cash. A new asset class, a store of value. One of the most important open source inventions of our time, gifted to the world by an anonymous creator whose identity is still not known! I fell down the rabbit hole & have been following Bitcoin since 2011. This podcast is my evolving journey in the world of cryptocurrency as I try to reconcile my bitcoin maximalist philosophy & my respect for the Austrian Economic, Libertarian & Cypherpunk roots of bitcoin's creation with the desire to stack BTC by investing in the rest of the space. I hope you enjoy the conversations. Science in Society Drew & Liv Does caffeine give you superpowers? Will humans ever make it to Mars? Is our DNA the key to the Fountain of Youth?
