The "What is Money?" Show

Andrew Sanchez tells a story that runs from childhood dysfunction and ADHD medication to chronic pain, addiction, homelessness, and his journey from anti capitalist to anarcho capitalist.

He shares how radical honesty and a judge's mercy opened the door to mental health court, how a four leaf clover landed at his feet the day his record was cleared, and how typing what is money into YouTube led him to the show and to Bitcoin. They also cover the cobra effect, Rene Girard and mimetic desire, the difference between logic and reason, a priori versus a posteriori reasoning, and why he who has a why can bear any how.

I recently joined Lonnie Gordon Ogulnick on The OG Money Podcast, and we covered quite a bit of ground, from what's happening with Bitcoin to my personal experiences with peptides, testosterone, and health optimization.
We explored the importance of long-term thinking in Bitcoin, and why I choose to hold it directly rather than chase leveraged exposure or attempt to time the market. I opened up about my journey with peptides and testosterone, what compelled me to experiment, and what I've learned firsthand. We closed on personal responsibility, the discipline of training, nutrition, and recovery, and how risk is woven into every meaningful decision.

Robert Breedlove joins Martin Silva to discuss blending Bitcoin, fitness, and philosophy into a personal brand, and the ups and downs of his health and fitness journey.

They cover how the Bitcoin rabbit hole taught him to question conventional wisdom, his path through leaky gut, veganism, keto, and carnivore, why peptides and anabolics will likely go mainstream, how to explain Bitcoin and inflation to a 10-year-old, and the books that shaped his thinking.
