Topic: Shout Outs

Kevin Reisinger writes in to resolve a grievance from 2013, when he donated 1.313 Bitcoin (then worth $73, now worth $75,000) for a birthday shout-out that was never read. Adam Curry admits he was "bashing" Bitcoin at the time and likely missed the email sent to an old Outlook address. Curry offers a sincere apology and a "goat karma" to make amends for the eight-year delay.

A listener attempted to get a "No Agenda" shout-out on Lionel's Periscope stream. The hosts discuss the practice of "log rolling" and mutual promotion between alternative media personalities.

Donations from executive producers are read, including a "Pi" donation from Sir Hank of Queens. A listener note clarifies that bank logos on Austin skyscrapers do not necessarily indicate ownership, but rather prestigious advertising space purchased by financial institutions to project stability.

The hosts process a large volume of listener donations and birthday requests, including a discussion on Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) as a future currency. Several listeners are "de-douched" after making their first contributions. They mention Project Vigilant and various international supporters from Canada, Germany, and the United States.
