#4 Abominable Farewell

In this episode of the YATA podcast, Oshi kicks things off with a live guitar intro inspired by Rush’s A Farewell to Kings, and we dive into listener boosts, shoutouts, and some fun back-and-forth about our evolving “like and um” jar. We compare podcast listener stats (Podhome.fm), talk about where folks are tuning in (hello, Tanzania!), and share an open invite for questions and emails. From there we go deep on building a circular Bitcoin economy: meetups, onboarding newcomers with wallets, pricing products in USD while settling in sats via BTCPay Server, and the realities of accounting, cash flow, and taxes when you’re trying to operate on Bitcoin first. We also trade notes on Nostr clients, peer‑to‑peer swaps with RoboSats and Bisq, and the small-business grind behind handmade products—right down to Oshi’s latest jam experiment. If you’re curious about value‑for‑value, boosts, and practical steps to earn, spend, and account in Bitcoin, this one’s for you. We keep it candid, practical, and a little goofy—just the way we like it. 'Rush – A Farewell to Kings (album)': https://www.rush.com/albums/a-farewell-to-kings/'Fountain (Podcasting 2.0 app)': https://fountain.fm'Castamatic (Podcasting 2.0 app)': https://castamatic.com'Podcasting 2.0 / Podcast Index (apps + V4V ecosystem)': https://podcastindex.org/apps'Helipad (boosts dashboard by Podcastindex)': https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/helipad'Value for Value overview': https://value4value.info'Bitcoin (intro resources)': https://bitcoin.org'Lightning Network (overview)': https://lightning.network'Satoshi (unit of account)': https://bitcoin.org/en/glossary/satoshi'BTCPay Server (self‑hosted payments)': https://btcpayserver.org'RoboSats (P2P Bitcoin over Lightning)': https://robosats.com'Bisq (decentralized Bitcoin exchange)': https://bisq.network'ERPNext (open‑source ERP/accounting)': https://erpnext.com'Manager.io (accounting software)': https://www.manager.io'Damus (Nostr iOS client)': https://damus.io'Amethyst (Nostr Android client)': https://amethyst.social'Stacker News': https://stacker.news'Aqua Wallet (Bitcoin & Liquid)': https://blockstream.com/aqua/'Podhome (podcast analytics mentioned)': https://podhome.fm'The Creature from Jekyll Island (book)': https://www.amazon.com/dp/091298645X Join us on Nostr: Oshi (npub1uzt238htjzpq39dxmltlx60vxym9fetk9czz6kddq6fhvkf4z3usy9qtrh) & Permanerd (npub1zqdpzty2mshxncqqxy2078qax6mlehsxmpx5095wtxw4tpepkr0s2ce6fj)Send an email: [email protected]
