If You Love Liberty ~ You'll Love Bitcoin

Once again, Roger, an excellent interview. It was/is(now) an excellent listening pleasure. You and the host provided an smooth discussion on Bitcoin, albeit I found some of the caller's questions/comments, should I say, lame.

May I offer up a bit of advice on your YouTube video, without being called out as being hypercritical? First the title. Bitcoin Interview On Free Talk Live seems to me more professional looking/reading. Next, the tags. The tags on YouTube, just like with Etsy and other sites, is how some of the search results are generated. Bitcoin, as well on Free Talk Live and the host names, should be included. Others to consider are Fiat; Currency; Cyber-Currency; etc.,--the usual suspects. As the tags stand now, you'll get the same amount of hits as if you didn't include any tags.

I hope you accept my comments as they were intended.

Sincerely, Bruno

They imply at the start that you have a business relationship with FTL.  That may undermine the credibility of the interview, if it really gets legs.

here's my favorite:

Roger:  "If you Love Liberty, you should Love Bitcoin."

THAT should become the new Bitcoin Slogan.

Forgive me, but why is it ok to talk about all kinds of illegal drugs on the radio but you get kicked as soon as you say "the f-word". Anybody care to explain that to a puzzled European

Totally Agree!

Roger,

that was beautiful.

no memorized pithy phrases.  no stumbling, no hesitation.  clear logical thought with an excellent understanding of the underlying technology and its benefits.  the right balance btwn optimism and reality. 

you are also unique in that you are a proven businessman with a solid business who's going to be successful with or without Bitcoin.  you have no hidden agenda except a philosophical support for a new, fair, and revolutionary monetary system.

seriously Roger, the community needs you to step up and become the new spokesperson.

  Beautiful, I'm listening to the full thing now while I work. I very much like the 'down to earth' and straight forward nature of your answers.

  All the hype of some past interviewees was disturbing. ;p

The full interview is now online at:

It was heard live by around 100,000 people.

I would not have had the knowledge to give this interview if it wasn't for all the great users on this forum.
Thank you all for your help!

Bitcoins are going to change the world!

Great interview - I especially liked the part with "you can't point a gun at the rules of mathematics"

I think you did a fantastic job, Roger. Thanks for the great work.

Listened to it.  Nicely done Roger.

The host of the show told me that likely, around 100,000 people heard the show!

I will be posting the interview on youtube shortly.

Yeah was really great interview... Roger was on for like over an hour!  Tons of callers on the topic, I think it was a hit. Honestly it's the perfect demographic.

excerpts:

Interviewer:

"That's why they have an entire force of armed man to go after you if you try to do that. It's the U.S. government system for handle counterfeiting."

"But Bitcoin doesn't have a group of armed man."

"How Bitcoin handle counterfeiting?"

Roger:

"Bitcoins are protected by the rules of mathematics."

"If you point a gun at the rules of mathematics they are not gonna flinch. They don't care if you are pointing a gun at them or not."

Nice interview.

more:

Roger:

"I just think that it's gonna help set the world free. It's gonna let people have control over their own money."

"And that's what people are so upset about, with all the bailouts in the USA. The only reason that was able to happen it's because the government can print as much money as they want and do whatever they want. If the world was using Bitcoins, the bailouts would have been impossible. They can't take your bitcoins, they can't make fake bitcoins, they can't give imaginary bitcoins to someone else."

Interviewer:

"It's true decentralization of the money suply."

"It doesn't require anything central. There's no Bitcoin Head Office. There's no Bitcoin Corporation. There's no vault for the Feds to go and raid. There's no server farm for them to take offline. It's COMPLETELY untouchable by the federal government or ANY government."

Roger:

"You have 100% control over your own money."


sorry for any typo, one more excerpt:

Listener:

"Hi, I just tunned in. I was wondering: what backs up Bitcoins? What makes Bitcoin worth money?"

Roger:

"Basically, because people agree that they worth money and they are incredible useful as a currency. You can send them anywhere in the world instantly without anyone getting involved."

Nice job, great interview!

Congratulations! You've done a great job.

Stupid me! I thought it was 7AM, hence the bold above.

Listening to it down.

EDIT: Just heard that you're in Japan, therefore my advice was correct.

So far, excellent interview.

I can't wait to see the youtube video, i was only able to catch the last few mins.

they appear to have archived the show... but it doesn't work for me http://www.freetalklive.com/content/podcast_2011_11_19

Defiantly, let us know how it went!
