B Smith's Second Sticks- Adrian Pruett

Bitcoin in 2026 is a highly polarizing concept. For those who laud it with an almost religious fervor for its qualities of autonomy and decentralization, as well as for others who see it as akin to a global money-laundering scheme, Bitcoin is, nonetheless, volatile and fascinating. In this episode of B Smith's Second Sticks, we spend some time with Adrian Pruett, friend of the pod, long-time DP/Director/Producer, and Founder and CEO of BTCENT, his entertainment company that uniquely melds the qualities of storytelling and Bitcoin. We spend some time on his origins, with some additional emphasis on Lego Masters, a non-scripted competition show show with a huge fan base and some unique production challenges. Adrian also shares with us his detailed philosophy of storytelling, and how the promise and potential of Bitcoin both serves the concept of content creation, and benefits from it as well. We lighten it up at the end and discuss the prospects of the Miami Dolphins, a team that is rebooting itself with a major infusion from the Green Bay Packers(!). It's a fascinating and off-the-grid conversation that you need to hear!Show notes:Check out the BTCENT website, featuring the soon-to-be released flagship series "Dishing Up Bitcoin"www.btcent.coAd links:Click on the link for The Cumin Club for 30% off!https://www.thecuminclub.com/discount/STICKSClick on the link for Zivolife for 30% off!https://zivo.life/discount/STICKS
