We Need to Talk About Crypto

On this week’s episode of We Need to Talk About Crypto, Mike and Sean try to talk about the word of the day - “white papers” - but are instead derailed by a visit from style icon Tony “The Fauxhawk” Dungelson, who announces his ill-timed plans to open a “Grooming Academy” to teach adults how to “groom children”. By this, Tony simply means etiquette and personal hygiene, so the boys try to help him re-brand his business. But things go south quickly, and one of Tony’s friends named Rufus storms into the studio to defend his mentor as the situation deteriorates. 

Also featured: Croc Talk, Listener Mail, and a nod to Yam Queen!

This special episode of We Need to Talk About Crypto was recorded live at UCLA's Royce Hall, and is presented by the Carolina Yam Growers Association in collaboration with Ashley Price Industries. Sound a little different? That's because Sean and Mike are here to promote YAM COIN - Where Agriculture Meets Crypto!

Yam Coin is an incredible new cryptocurrency that will revolutionize the face of produce and farming. Joining Sean and Mike to discuss this incredible economic breakthrough is Yam Queen, the world-famous cultural icon, diva, and lead singer of the Yam Jam Band from the 1980s "Carolina Yams" commercials! Your hosts interview Yam Queen, learn about her rise and fall, and even hear a special performance of her original hit song "Yam Queen". 

But things take a turn when an unexpected guests joins everyone on stage - Dr. Sirloin, the Instagram doctor who claims that "yams are bullshit" and that "the human body can subsist exclusively on sirloin". Things get contentious, and soon Sean and Mike find themselves moderating a no-holds-barred debate between Dr. Sirloin and Yam Queen. 

Tune into this episode and you will never look at yams, meat, or UCLA the same way ever again!

Last week Sean and Mike pulled the plug on producer Tessa (literally), and this week they've moved into a luxurious new studio owned by Ashley Price, the businessman and entrepreneur known for making deals in public restrooms. Your favorite hosts celebrate their lifestyle upgrade, and introduce a few new segments like "Croc Talk", which is dedicated to the lifestyle of wearing Crocs. 

The podcast also debuts a brand new theme song, and the boys are visited by The Crypto Keeper, who comes to welcome Tessa to the underworld as well as complain about a shocking "slap" that took place at the Helly awards down in Digital Hell. 

All of this and so much more on this week's episode of "We Need to Talk About Crypto"!

Your favorite investment gurus are back in Los Angeles after winning the war in Ukraine, but there's been some big changes around the podcast. Producer Tessa has married a reclusive hentai enthusiast while the boys were away, and they're forced to confront him as their new dad and step-producer. During the conversation, the boys learn about a prophetic vision of the future called "The Teckus Trilogy", which involves shoeboxes, computer parts, and copious amounts of man-on-machine sexual activity. 

Fortunately for Mike and Sean, the podcast's new owner Ashley Price is there to clean up the mess made by Tessa and her husband - but will this ultimately be what's best for the show? 

Oh, and the word of the day is "crypto tourism". 

The boys are back on the road this week, but this time it's no Salt Lake City... it's the war torn nation of Ukraine! Sean and Mike have left America for the sweet siren call of cash being paid to foreign fighters in Ukraine's conflict with Russia, but the deal isn't as good as it seems. Although they received free guns and a cool set of pajamas, the fightin' life is not exactly for the rise n' grind boys you know and love - and they've deserted the cause. Thus, this week's episode was recorded in an international basement pub that is home to killers, spies, and army defectors. 

Mike meets a European Pjornographer, and we're treated to a PSA for "He World", the nature preserve for castrated Alpha Males in San Diego. This week's word is "Rouble", and the dip of the week was "Garlic Spread". Join us for all this and so much more!
