0:42Wow, what a spot you've got here, Rue. I know, right? Nothing beats a night under the stars with your best buddy. It's just so great to get away from the charts. Like, Solana could be at 80 bucks right now, and we'd be none the wiser. Rue, do you ever worry that maybe we've got it all wrong. Like, what if that was the top? What if the maxis are right, Rue, and everything goes to zero against Bitcoin? Crikey, Tucker, where the hell is this coming from? Do you even watch the journeyman? Oh, I'm not worried, Rue. It's just a fun thought experiment is all. Don't let the market bore you into submission, my friend.
1:14That's exactly where they want you. Because just as you take your eye off the ball, boom, God candles straight to Valhalla. Yeah, I guess you're right, Rue. You know what I like to do summoning the banana. As long as it doesn't involve your penis, Rue. Au contraire, Tuca. Just a little bit of manifesting with the mystical forces of music. You'd be amazed at how effective intention is. And summoning the banana is one of the most powerful rituals in all of recorded history. Check this out. There is a little thing I see Me call it global liquidity Big money printer coming soon Me bags are packed and we are going to the moon Me just a humble journey man Me real vision 2020 I'm the man with the plan Me manifest the market singing a song Call me irresponsible I'm bidding Max Long Me guan summon the banana all on my own

3:18so fucking good if only i could sing or play guitar but i can still come up with a banana zone it's just the problem is it's just not happening right now it's just so fucking boring i have nothing to do my wife thinks i've been laid off work because i've got my meetings in my diary because everyone's on holiday she's like have you been fired i'm like no but yeah it's been very weird and i'm anyway i'm lucky because next week i'm off on holiday off to uh zambia where we're going in with some friends rented a toyota land cruiser off-road prepared uh they've been traveling around africa for three months and we're joining them in northern zambia super remote tents on the roof camping in the middle of the bush um completely off grid so the banana zone can just happen and I'm not around looking at screen doing nothing.
4:10Solana, 1.45 every single fucking day. It's miserable. But I shall be fighting off the leopards in my sleep. So hopefully I'll come back alive. I'm not sure. My wife took out life insurance. So maybe she's trying to feed me to the leopards. I don't know. She'll probably strap bacon to me in the night or something.
4:35I Let's talk about food, wine, the important things of life. Obviously, I came back from Spain a while ago where I had reacquainted myself with actual culture as opposed to this kind of Pepsi culture that we live around. So where are we today? We're in France. We're in France because we're drinking a Chateau Neuf-du-Pape that's from the southern Rhone Valley. very famous for Chateauneuf-du-Pape this one is the most famous of all it's called I need to always figure out how to get that why does this not work
5:19Chateauneuf-du-Pape this is a 2001 not something you can get easily anywhere I've had this in storage for 20 years so it's something I've had in storage for 20 years and occasionally open a bottle and it's it's uh grenache and syrah you australians obviously you can't speak english you call it shiraz but it's kind of juicy because it's slightly more sudden so it gets like a ripe fruit flavor to it but it's still got tannins and structure and it's got sort of plumminess to it um it's very very delicious one i've not been drinking much red because it's summer and it's hot as balls here so it's generally been white and carver but i felt like a glass of red today but generally speaking you can find chateauneuf pretty easily in your wine merchants um and your wine store it's um not super scarce chateauneuf beau castel you can find but it is older ones obviously harder to find um but you know there's a spread of prices kind of around the 50 60 dollars you can find a really decent one um and they start you can drink them young and they're kind of really big bowls in your face kind of meaty wines and then they go through a period where they kind of go through a lull and they kind of lose the plot of it you're like oh this is not very good anymore and then after a while they start coming through the other side and they get this silky jammy soft
7:04deliciousness i mean that's utterly delicious so as ever we always with our pre-dinner aperitivo a glass of wine, sometimes a cocktail, something like a Campari soda, gin tonic, freshen up the palate. I'll do maybe a gin tonic special someday. Campari soda I've done before. These are my favorite kind of... And they're there to get the palate working, to get ready for dinner, to loosen up for conversation. So today, I'm again a bit in Spain because Spain does aperitivos better than pretty much everybody else. So what do I have today so today i have these are not the valencian almonds these are actually from alicante a bit further south and these are marcona almonds and these are reputedly the best almonds in the world or in spain i actually prefer the valencia ones but these are slightly flatter more rounder very delicious we've got two different meats of spain today we have this is sorry i'm trying to get you in camera so this is lomo lomo is loin of pork this is slightly cured as you can see with some paprika and so it has that slightly spicy smell that chorizo has and it is um it's loin of pork thinly sliced but this is from iberico pigs so these are the black leg pigs that eat acorns live in the free range in the mountains of spain if you're a food snob these pigs they're fucking gods they're not pigs um delicious melt in the mouth compliments the wine changes the structure and the taste of the wine so that's funny people accuse me of oh well you don't chew your food i probably don't but also it'll be really boring if i sat here chewing my mouth full of food for half an hour just so some of you pedants online um are happy that i've chewed my food properly um so i just try and wolf it down so here we have salsich on so this is like a spanish salami again acorn fed pigs black leg iberico pigs so incredible the highest quality pork in the world it's a beautiful salami i've just sliced it off um so it didn't come bought the lomo came bought like that but this came actually on a full salsichon and it has so much umami and depth of flavor and nuttiness from the acorn but with a little bit of acid astringency as well to cut through it it's really really delicious not so easy to get for most of you so these are my aperitivos to wash down my food now again a little roll call around the world australians with your beer for the morning um tim tams are not a snack that's acceptable so put them away it's garbage food stop that um americans anything made by frito-lay is not food it's a carcinogen anything made by pepsi which is frito-lay itself you might as well just torch on a bonfire in fact you probably can't burn it it's like margarine if you ever put margarine out for ants they'll never eat it and that's the kind of same with all of that shit the doritos your bud lights all of that random even the tito's vodka revolting stuff that is i mean that's just the worst corn syrup in the world turned into a cheap vodka and they call it like you know boutique vodka it's just shockingly bad stuff guys get your act together you can make good whiskey you can certainly make better vodka than that shit um anyway and and the brits because i know there's a few of you staying up late because you're alcoholics um you're probably eating monster munch pickled onion flavor which actually i would say is acceptable um even though it's it's totally carcinogenic but it reminds me of my youth so anyway welcome to the chaos of the usual um ama now remember firstly there's a whole bunch of you here who haven't bothered to subscribe to the channel it's beginning to irritate me i track every one of you online i'm coming around to your houses and i'm going to shame you in front of your neighbors unless you just hit that subscribe button to the youtube channel and then that's not enough because you want to ask me questions because you're bothering to spend an hour with me drinking wine and hearing me insult you then i would rather i insulted you on the real vision platform because you'll be surrounded by more civilized people and i think that is an important place to be and you can't ask me questions on youtube even though i love you youtube guys i'll ask you some questions at the end i will reply as well but the questions from the ama are only on the real vision platform it's free to join to have literally no excuse in the world so realvision.com forward slash join now i have to use that link forward slash join because dan told me off for just sending random people to realvision.com so realvision.com forward slash join dan has promised to buy me a bottle of wine for every person who actually goes through on that link and then what i'll do is i'll hold a party and you can all come to cayman and drink the wine that dan's buying us all so the more of you that actually go to realvision.com and um forward slash join don't forget that and you can then ask questions and then dan will buy us all drinks because he lives here in cayman as well so that's a deal right so i'm going to wait for you to do that so you can jump off youtube first hit the subscribe button anyway jump off youtube um and i'll see you on the platform in a second i can wait because you guys are bone fucking idle you've got nothing else here it's boring the bizarre known bizarre known banana zone bizarre no no anyway that thing not happening right now.

14:44So, unfortunately, that was the first glass of wine in 15 minutes. That's a faster pace than I set last time. I need to be careful because I'm not as good a red wine drinker as I am a white wine drinker or a champagne drinker. Slow down, kids, slow down. Right. So, I'm looking at my list of things. Tim Tam's not acceptable, Australians. You can have beer for breakfast. That's acceptable. You actually make good coffee. so you know feel free to not drink alcohol australians um i know it's difficult for you um but you know you actually make decent coffee so they have that your kiwis as we know sauveignan blanc hour rack one open um it's um it's midwinter so maybe actually you could probably have a a nice red a nice um you make great pinot in new zealand so uh maybe a glass of pinot because it's miserable shitty weather there now um and um yeah i think that'll work okay the one snack that i that i was going to bring on but didn't was a special unique kind of holy snack which is a smoking chicken fish um you know but i didn't want to smoke marlborough lights i've got my vape or marlborough um but the you know chicken fish is a delicacy for those of you who have been um of the brotha hood who've been prophetized so i i know there's a bunch of smoking church of the smoking chicken fish people watching today love you guys it's just the funniest meme uh great community i'm not shilling it i don't care the number goes up or number goes down it's actually just bloody cool and it's a church and stuff like that so smoking chicken fish is a food maybe we'll figure out with that community how to actually create some amazing snack and obviously the broth we can drink the holy broth maybe we can make it with an alcohol way of doing it so we'll figure that out as well for those of you aboard who want to mess around in a mean community and go to church every evening at eight o 'clock in the evening um it's kind of fun okay so the wine stuff you know i do know a bunch of you really like this for some reason you like to be insulted and i'm happy to do of that because you guys deserve it because you are philistines and you need to be civilized you know you're now starting to travel a little bit to europe most of you've been on a cruise ship to barcelona and think you've done europe or you know you've gone to paris for three hours that's not that's not you know go and spend some time look around europe educate yourself obviously never start a business in europe or do business in europe you have to do that in the United States because Europe's terrible but it is a brilliant cultural museum so hopefully I'm getting you guys across the line on all of this I'm sure we can do some specials on Asia because Asia has some some great culture too um that doesn't involve Bud Light um so one of the things I do love is as I talk through these wines I know I have a passion for wine um and many of you are starting in your wine journey and I think that's lovely and cheers to you all But on the platform, I've showed you this before.
17:57Let me see if I can just bring up the right window. Okay, let's go. So on the Real Vision platform, so this is why you're going across the Real Vision platform, realvision.com forward slash join. Dan buys us bottles of wine. So please come across. If I go to the notes section. So this is where members write their own notes. and they share them with others. And you can build on ideas. You can build on thought processes, AI summaries of videos, all sorts of stuff. But one of the great ones is Raoul's Wine List. And this is Douglas Jones. I'm going to call him Doug, whether I'm allowed to or not.
18:38But Doug, Dougie Baby, has done this incredible thing, which is he has built a list of the wines that I've talked about. uh and then members have started building in their own ideas of nice wines penfolds grains 1995 jesus christ mark you've got expensive taste i had the penfold grains the other day incredible wine one of the world's greatest wines anyway if you're a real vision member please share um your wines here and so we build this group library of great wines suggested by all of you in all of those ludicrous number of countries around the world where real vision members are so if we look at this again i think you guys have seen this before if i zoom in i don't think jamaica is particularly famous for its wine but if we we go around we can see we've got i mean everywhere across the us we've got everywhere across asia india africa i mean it's bananas where you all are so you can all share incredible wines i mean we've got a lot of members in spain all over spain sharing great wine ideas i mean 97 members just in valencia alone where i used to live so and look there's a whole bunch in uh mallorca ibiza minorca anyway so the real vision platform's cool for this um and everybody's sharing as you see on the right trade ideas as well.
20:11So there's tons of trade ideas, tons of notes, notes about wine, notes about culture. You know, we can start restaurant notes in different cities, our favorite restaurants in the world. Knock your socks off. That's what it's there for. Here are the channels for all the regional channels for you to chat and meet up with each other. And then you can directly message each other as well. So I just want you to make sure you use this as a resource to start sharing, not just trade ideas but anything you think as a community you want to share so the other thing about real vision is we're coming very close to our 10th anniversary i mean 10 fucking years when myself damien grant and remy came up with the idea it was we just wanted to democratize finance because we'd learned that trust in the system was broken down and nobody wanted to believe intermediaries so people en masse wanted to take responsibility for their own financial journey that's been the story of real vision and we built that into a platform communities education knowledge all of this stuff and it's really fucking cool so So September is our 10-year anniversary.
21:29It's going to be a month of all sorts of crazy shit. So there's going to be a lot of fun going on, giveaways, merch stuff. Also, we will have a trading competition. So you guys, using those trade ideas, are going to be held accountable for your ideas. And those who win, win prizes. So there's going to be a lot of fun going on there as well. It's going to get slightly chaotic. I'll come back from Zambia in the middle of this shit. And you guys will all be involved with generally betting on who's the best trader here or who's got the best ideas. And I love that. Another thing while you're on the platform is make sure you go to the merch store because, you know, I'm proud of Real Vision and its brand.
22:12And let me just show you the merch stuff. We have a lot of merch. So let me go back to the beginning.
22:23That's not the beginning.
22:28so there's a new banana zone series i don't i suggest you do not buy until the banana zone starts because if not you will jinx it um so do not buy the banana zone merch just dream about it think about it covet it deeply but do not buy it if you do buy it don't wear it out until the banana zone if not the whole community is going to find you and blame you for the lack of bananas OK, got that. But we've all I mean, it's really cool, right? It's in the Andy Warhol style. We've also got Don't Fuck This Up crypto gathering stuff. Let's see what else we can find on here. I think we've got Irresponsibly Long still around.
23:12The stickers. Don't fuck this up. I love these T-shirts. I wear those all the time. The hoodies are amazing. I've got Don't Fuck This Up hoodies. so there's tons of stuff so go to the merch store you are bored you've got nothing to do the markets aren't doing anything so as opposed to wasting money on yet another meme coin going to zero waste money in the real vision merch store and you'll have you'll probably attract other people around you because you're kind of cool people will stop you in the street worship you um i think your parents will think more of you certainly your friends will um and so there's no downside there's literally no downside so buy some merch right i'm just gonna eat another snack because if i don't eat if you're not careful you get drunk so i urge you all to um have a little snack have a drink but i love the merch i wear it out around the world and i get stopped with it all the time it's just really really cool jamie who's our graphic designer who designs all this stuff she lives here in cayman a she's one of the funniest loveliest people in the world um but b she's brilliant with memes and brilliant with design so you can thank jamie in the chat because i know you guys are all going to buy the merch because you care and you want to be cool as well so i'm going to under chew this so i can't remember there's like four pedantic people saying, my God, he doesn't chew his food.
24:42It's because if I, in fact, let's do the experiment.
24:59Okay. It doesn't make very engaging television and you are being overly pedantic. So get over the fact that I will be not chewing my food properly. so we'll soon go to the questions they are only on the platform i'm going to reiterate again realvision.com forward slash join that equals dan giving wine and then we'll all drink it and we can probably bankrupt him as well so let's give that a go um he's a lovely guy but you know he's forcing me to use urls so we're going to make him pay for it okay let's do the macro thing the macro thing is i need to share again sorry flitting around let me just close that window let me share this screen back to uh now that's the safari version
25:54back to the platform and i'm going to go to the latest Have you noticed this is Julian Bittle and myself. I'm the slightly better looking one. He's got the copycat beard. It's not as good as mine. And his hair is a bit big. He's not really as charming as me, but he's pretty good as a macro analyst. Or marginally good anyway. Macro investment tool, for some reason, people love it. And that's a lot of Julian's work. So we'll just go to that because then I can give you a bit of a rundown of the things you guys care about. Because I can talk to you about the business cycle and you're like, I don't care.
26:37when banana zone that's all you guys care about so it's largely pointless to show all of the work that is on the platform this is all included in the real vision plus membership so those of you in the free membership um i wouldn't sign up now i'd wait till um i'd wait to don't let anybody know i'd wait till september there's gonna be shit ton of deals but you really want to be upgrading to this it's where the education is it's the macro investing tool the amas with the kind of famous people and a whole bunch more so wait till september upgrade um but don't say i said that because i'm going to get in trouble um okay flicking through julian's chart julian loves the fucking chart we can't have enough um nasdaq we're bullish on the nasdaq now nasdaq year on year versus gmi financial conditions index it's so beautiful financial conditions are loosening now that we've got um the dollar falling and rates falling and that is a leading indicator to six-month lead.
27:36We're at the point where NASDAQ should start rocketing higher. We're already starting to see it. I think that continues. That's all part of the banana zone, driven by financial conditions and liquidity. Talking of liquidity, global M2, which many of you looked at, has started breaking out. This is the year-on-year chart, and the outright chart is breaking out. Financial conditions lead it. So we should get very strong M2. Rest of this year, all of next year, as we've said, uh macro crypto summer macro crypto fall or autumn for those of you who have who speak the queen's english or the king's english now um so that's all part of the banana zone that's very much getting very very close uh global m2 versus bitcoin you can see the correlation very high correlation.
28:30Global M2 is starting to go higher. It will start moving much higher. Soon, Bitcoin will follow suit. Global M2 leads a little bit-ish. So therefore, again, Bitcoin should start to move and get rid of this goddamn boring zone because I'm so bored. I've got an hourly chart on my screen, which obviously you guys know, I don't trade. I set my positions ages ago. i bought again you know added in this boring zone when solana was down below 120 i'm looking at hourly chart solana it's like a flat line at 145 just nothing going on because everybody's in the hamptons if you're european you're in ibiza or in spain if you're american you're you're probably in italy because you guys are obsessed by italy for some unknown reason um a bunch of urine Mykonos and a bunch of English snobs from the south of France everyone needs to come back from holiday and put some money in the markets and stop spending on Chateau Neuf-du-Pas
29:37and Nala you've come to join us that's Nala the dog, the surviving dog she's getting old and she's lovely and she has I don't know if I can show you there she is sitting sitting next to me i can just bring it down she follows me everywhere uh she's a real sweetie but she's very old now um okay carrying on with the screen sharing because i was getting distracted then ism the business cycle been flip-flopping around as we all know financial conditions lead it blah blah blah blah going higher all of these fucking bozos talking about recession and the world's going to end and the yen carry trade is going to break everything just don't understand the business cycle um it's not the point in the business cycle where you blow everything up it's the time you have a macro spasm bit of a shock uh move on nothing to see um it's just you've got to understand when it matters so if you have a macro spasm here which we had in 2018 it matters because it's pushing the economy lower towards recession if you're on your way up macro spasms they're just small speed bumps so don't worry about it's just noise um another nice chart in fact it's a beauty it's um bitcoin last year versus ethereum this year it's actually remarkably weirdly similar again these charts may not hold but overall liquidity is coming markets are going to go higher banana Arnazone tends to start.
31:17So, sorry, I'm still eating. In fact, I'll give you guys all a break. You have a sip of your wine, a little snack. Let me enjoy my wine and chew my food.
31:34It's delicious. But, you know, it's five o 'clock, but someone whacked it back from the gym.

36:36I thank my parents for that. My mother's Dutch, my father's Indian, and they choose a French surname that sort of vaguely rhymes with my surname. If you're English, it's Raoul Pal or Raoul Pal. Americans kind of get it right, Raoul. I'm sort of halfway in the middle. I just kind of blurt out three vowels because nobody's got three vowels next to each other than their name, but yeah, I've got it. So Moli Chu. When we talk price predictions, you look like you let slip regarding Solano this week with Anthony Scaramucci. It's really irritating he does that to me. I told him not to because I have no fucking clue where it's going to go.
37:14We focus too much on the price of Bitcoin, Sol, ETH, Doge and not enough on the price of fiat currency. We're thinking of it in comparison to.
37:27It's a long question. it's like there's is the dollar going up or down i think most of this is because the dollar goes down anyway so that's the denominator effect now obviously versus yen and whatever they're all should be going up versus the dollar over this stage in the business cycle so they will perform less well than bitcoin dollar let's say or dollar bitcoin versus bitcoin euro bitcoin yen um scott saunders any points isn't how to buy the dip is it now four weeks oh christ well i put out enough updates for you guys i mean unless you're deaf or maybe you just let's just see me and press skip which i understand i told you when solana was at 120 i'm like begging you to buy so i have nothing else to say um also if you can't be bothered to watch videos just read the aria summaries on the platform they'll give you everything you need it's literally 10 seconds 10 seconds to figure that out um and so you can find out where i said that uh leah ross soul whip it bud um no idea what he means um soul whip it bud breakfast beer prepped and ready for my day off an aussie spanish carver on ice for tonight civilized toasted almonds yet to come almonds are great because they go with white wine red wine sherry and they just umami enough um delicious i mean i like the toasted peanuts some nuts go well but you know cashews and all that shit i mean that's crap you get served on american airlines a bunch of awful oily sort of slightly sweet over rich nuts the elegance you get an iberia iberia is not the best island in the world but they give you some beautiful almonds nice glass of fine crisp sherry uh and some olives and life is okay

48:15paulie paulie i got my mouth full she'll going i don't care i know i'm being rude you can call me a philistine for this but i'm trying to keep the conversation going so i think mangus williams is looking for where you buy the t-shirts from uh go to the left hand side at the bottom is a picture of a t-shirt it's kind of a giveaway click on that opens up a new window all the merch just there's tons of it it's not that first page you can go through all sorts of stuff um even you millennials you can buy one of those ridiculous stupid stanley cups which i have no idea you're going to be embarrassed of in five years time why you actually were walking around with these stupid big things like this um like a comfort blanket but you can buy one with real vision merch on so if you're gonna waste your money on stupid shit waste it on us we'd appreciate it um thank you paul for helping out francis is you having a morning drink now thanks francis we love you this is why you're part of real visions community not that we're alcoholics but we also don't mind cutting loose and breaking the rules gregory grameleon why have we all got stupid names i mean everybody gregory grameleon raoul powell i mean they were terrible julian is a genius love his reports do not tell julian bittle he's a genius he's honestly not honestly he's a total sham he copies my beard it's not as good as mine he's got as i said big bouffant hair um no just don't give him any encouragement if not he'll just give you a thousand chance you have to keep him tight tight you know then he'll deliver in in maybe 60 charts but if you give him this kind of julian is a genius the charts just multiply they don't stop with him so please don't do that no jillian bittle is a fucking god uh
50:17okay tim barnes what are your connected friends in washington saying about crypto for harris movement is there really in any interest to help the crypto community or merely pandering problem is is with any of my connected friends they're all on fucking holiday so i haven't heard anything really i think i'm just watching people in dismay trying to figure out what the hell the democrats are doing trying to alienate 50 million young people i just simply don't get it um but oh yeah they'll figure it out um andre bijan well what about the ai version of you we're training it right now actually i did the um videos train it um so we don't know quite when it's ready the partners we're working with delphi um are that's not delphi digital delphi.ai um they're still tweaking it trying to get it um as good as possible so it's soon i hope it's in september i'm hoping it's during the birthday um it should be really fucking cool so it's still we're still working on it it is coming um as i said i filmed the video version of me against green screens and all that to make the ai i just want to make sure it's okay it'll be beta when it comes out as well beta test because you know it won't be ready um james murtach what are your thoughts so i'm eating with my mouth full again i'm sorry mum sorry i know you told me not to do that um james murtter what do you thought on elon's must current political actions what could be intended and unintended consequences for the businesses associated with him are he sick clear of politics but he's clearly doubled down um as have many and i think because the threat is more existential for all of their businesses as well.
52:10I get it, but they've really dug in, so I don't know how it plays out. We'll see. Alex Pryor. Thoughts on the idea that China's lack of new credit and potential crashing house prices is placed in a similar position to Japan in the 90s. Will markets cope okay with this, or will it lead to a protracted sideways movement? The Chinese stock market peaked in, what, 2008? it's it's exactly the replay of china of japan so the chinese stock market stopped going up when the chinese property market stopped going up um like japan they continue to buy raw materials and other goods and they're still a huge economy and um all of that so yeah i think it is like japan but i don't see there's any catastrophic downside just a general slowing of growth of the global economy which is something i've talked about aging populations slow economies um tim barnes good risk reward entry for swine up right now actually adony one of the co-founders was on the platform today with ash bennington i haven't watched it yet um rich reward entry i don't know i'm considering putting into a pro macro trade idea because i do like it obviously the conflict is i'm on the board everyone will accuse me of being a shill and being paid to do it which is not true we even had on online hilarious people using hashtag grants and joking about the grant they got from the sui foundation who didn't pay anybody to promote it but people are behind the project so does it work or not i can't i don't know my guess is yes it's really fucking good um amongst others that are really fucking good so i can't give you a trade idea not on this free platform either um and obviously i need to be considered because i don't want to be deemed to be doing something inappropriate um ral where do you like to buy sol and e and where do you prefer to buy bitcoin i prefer to buy them as cheaply as possible that answers your question um i use kraken i also use in ledger i just do swaps between one and the other um bitcoin base bit by nance generally kraken's been my go-to even though they're sponsored this show but i've actually used kraken for a very long time i just like them um but doesn't mean anything's bad james murta nala the benevolent nala the sleeping monkey she's fast asleep but what she does is about nala witching hour about six o 'clock so she starts begging for snacks.
54:51She also likes almonds. So I have to put this little trail of almonds around the kitchen. She likes kind of hunting almonds. But she's been really sleepy today, actually. I'm a bit worried about her. She's been really not herself. So I don't know what that's about. Timothy Harris, Nala is lovely. She is the sweetest. And her sister, Zazu, died last year of a twisted gut. They were sisters from the same litter, which was a real shame. Dave Brooks, what was the correct wine match for the commencement of the Banana Zone? I was thinking of 2009 Lopez de Heredia in your Tondonio Reserve. Blanco. Blanco.
55:32Dave, I like your style. Yes, you are bonkers. Because the only thing for the Banana Zone is Dom fucking Perignon. Okay? You heard me? Dom fucking Perignon. those of you who don't know what don perignon is look it up um gregory gramellon i'm in america and i'm in beer ritz stop being so judgmental of us americans really america and france fucking hell make worse choices
56:09yeah being french or american i don't know what's worse being french um scott gideon when can we expect another interview with from dan tapier on the platform when we've got anything new to talk about now dan's a bc investor there's fuck all going on in that space um markets macro there's fuck all going on in this so yeah he'll come back on towards the end of the year we can get all bullish and or bearish or whatever it is but right now there's nothing to talk about so we can just drink wine paul e love old dogs my wife is actually 19 years younger than me so i don't think she'll take that very happily um sean jordan what breed of dog is nala so i used to have two bridgebacks brother and a sister from the same litter and they're just gorgeous elegant incredible dogs oh she's deaf she can't hear me um no it's like a fake ridgeback so she's like part ridgeback are you listening to me you're deaf you can't hear me um she's partridge can we see if i can get her on the screen um she's no you can't see her oh there she is um she's kind of part ridgeback um she's a caiman mutt um she's kind of maybe a little bit labrador a little bit german shepherd we're not really sure so um anyway that's enough of nala dave brooks macro spasm is a pretty rad brand name
57:53yeah i don't know what it's used for though oh right i need to get around the questions i'm sorry i'm so slow do this all the time uh adam is a napoli we've asked questions before check out mountain queen on netflix from jerry majid yep anush and i watched it uh two nights ago uh really really interesting um it's about a uh the female sherpa who's climbed everest the most number of times and she's heartbreakingly considering she's a helper in whole foods yet she's one of the most famous people in the entire world of climbing one of the most famous people in nepal um emma mildred a ha ha completely petrified of diving emma comes to little cayman there's there's no even current here it's just wonderful um timothy harris anusha's amazing don't give her she's got she's she's a leo she's got a really big head um anusha's amazing i follow her on instagram wow watching her she scares the shit out of me she's also from new jersey she scares the shit out of me um james jackson if the wife keeps going away you ain't going diving soon yeah that's true too um simon williams well given the report that jump trading has its fingerprints on recent crypto dump this weekend with the weekend e-fire sale any concern about jump's ability to deliver on finance later this year um no as far as i know they're entering because the sec or the cfgc whoever got really pissy with them they're exiting the market making business in crypto um which i don't think they were a very good participant in i don't think they were ecosystem friendly to be honest and i have dealings with them through other stuff um but the firm itself is committed to blockchain technology and so i actually don't think it it it affects Firedance or whatsoever.
59:50It's a big firm, lots of very smart people working lots of amazing stuff. I just don't think they were the best actors in crypto personally. Troy Murray, this is a great question, Troy. What do you drink on airplanes? Because taste buds actually change on planes. Which is why a lot of people who never drink tomato juice drink tomato juice on planes. It's a known fact, super bizarre.
1:00:21generally if it's a long haul flight i have learned not to drink much on the plane and i don't eat on the plane either uh unless it's something really amazing i'll eat in the lounge beforehand a light meal generally low carb meal because if not it kind of bubbles in your stomach at the different pressure i will drink a couple of glasses of champagne um that's it maybe a glass of wine at a push um because you don't sleep as well you wake up more jet lagged so i'm actually much more disciplined um occasionally like a nice gin and tonic um on the plane as well it's just kind of fresh um but i've made the mistake like being on a beer and before you know you start with sherry and then you're you start with carby or a glass of sherry they're on the white wine then you're on the red wine then you're on um oloroso sherry and then your shit face and you wake up and uh you feel like death and you're like why did i do that so i'm actually really uh cautious now but great question um roy blanchard what's the wine du jour well we've gone through that before um chateauneuf the pat uh which is french um and shattered about bocassel which is the best vineyard there uh lawrence wolf why any clue why bitcoin is dumping right now have you seen the chart it's a flat pancake stop looking at hourly charts you'll kill yourself um tory torres bitcoin miners okay i asked them 17 times bitcoin miners bitcoin miners but i don't care about bitcoin miners it's an over complication of a simple trade own bitcoin what did they outperform underperform i have no idea um i just don't like them um
1:02:20mike lloyd galapagos maldives indonesia costa rica dived all of those um thank you amazing places jp nian nian jacoda where's that from south india sri lankan not sri lankan don't know I've read and continually heard that the longer crypto, Bitcoin, the mavers, trade cybersome, consolidates the heart it will rip higher when the bananas end happens. Is there any merits to this? Generally speaking, a rule in life is suppressed volatility leads to hypervolatility. So yeah, I think there's a decent chance. James Jackson, sharks don't eat you out of professional respect. You're calling me a shark, James.
1:03:02Nice. um um don't eat me because i'm the shark whisperer red sea wow but okay travel any recommendations for fantastic restaurants in katmandu i'm going soon um
1:03:20no i can't remember it's been a while since i've been a katmandu but the the hotel dwarika is really cool it's like a heritage hotel uh i think it's a nice place if you're not doing the kind of street food backpacky stuff uh james murt's a bit of a faff yeah everything's a bit of a faff uh blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah uh gus how would you recommend traveling south america
1:03:51i think the fantasy experiences is in a four-wheel drive just drive the whole fucking thing um And if not, these are big countries. You know, Argentina is a big country to get around because you've got Patagonia and then you've got the big cities and then you've got Mendoza and you've got the mountains. And Brazil is even more gigantic. I mean, they're all, it's hard. It's a hard place to go. You just have to go many times. I haven't done all of South America. I've not been to Brazil, actually. High on my list. Magnus Williams, having not been to Cayman, what's the locally produced food and drinks versus imported and is the imports as delicious as made locally
1:04:39there's like kind of caribbean hybrids jamaican jamaican hybrids uh fish tea and stuff like this um but then there's a lot of jamaican stuff here a bit trinidadian so it's a mix um now obviously kamanian people love their food and their culture um it but it's stronger jamaica and trinidad are probably stronger for food and culture than it is here we go to jamaica curry goat exceptional anush makes amazing curry goat and also um oxtail which is just like the most sublimely deep incredible ridiculous thing uh jamaican oxtail stew um and obviously jerk yes i'm calling you all jerks and jerk chicken jerk pork all of that incredible jamaica's great i mean for a relatively small island the food and music it's brought on the world is uh amazing and culture i'm in the rastafi culture Okay, sorry, I'm well over time, and I'm fucking nowhere near the bottom of this list.
1:05:49Blah, blah, blah. James Jackson. Just enough, James. Thank you. Joss in Medlin. Hi, Raoul. What do you think of Sui right here? Good time to add. We answered that question. I mean, I like the token, as you know.
1:06:05Chris, any reason the crypto market hasn't gone up with other assets such as gold and stocks recently? I actually think because there's been a lot of supply. whether it's the token unlocks from some... Nala? We're trying to do some work here.
1:06:29She's deaf, so I can't shout at her. If not, in fact, I'm going to get up and go and talk to Miss Nala. Miss Nala? Miss Nala? Miss Nala?
1:06:50I'll talk to everybody and apologise for ruining the broadcast. Miss Nuller, come here. Come on, they want to see you.
1:07:03I can't really move this camera anyway. Miss Nuller has... You're apologising, thank you. I'll give you an almond. Will that work? Yeah. Okay. Bribery. I think there's just been a lot of supply and everyone's on holiday, so there's not a lot of demand. And, you know, Nasdaq and stuff's been bouncing. So I don't think anything. Abraham Wolfe, bourbon and soul, winning combination. A beer and a bourbon. It's an American thing, but, you know, I don't have an issue with that. Rue Pereira, I feel your pain with the name. Yeah, Rui, it's just ridiculous. It's just, what parents, what are they thinking?
1:07:47Okay, if you only have$100 to allocate, what would be your allocation between Tesla, Coin, Sol, and others? Well, as you know, I'm all Sol, but really, I mean, I think if you put a third, a third, a third between those two stocks and came away in four years' time, five years time uh you'll have made a lot of money um flint size more hey can you dive into sui how is it superior chance of outperforming soul look it's outperforming every single other major token right now there's a few um but it still needs to prove itself against prove itself against solana if not you just don't own your money in sonara would it be a long-term whole scenario it needs to get traction it's early stage so you're not looking for massive traction but you need to see great projects launching on-chain activity happening you know defy and it's all there early but needs to be proven so um there's a deep dive on the platform as of today so have a look at that um blah blah blah blah do you think a portfolio of solana killers there's no solana killer that's a red herring let's just call them other great layer ones tier near suey is a good idea yeah i mean probably um are we quite at the point so we look like it was starting to prove it uh near has done decently well as well that next big trade is coming up so i give it that um
1:09:31okay pete herbst okay another ridiculous surname herbst um two's tens briefly unverted last monday during peak volatility massive sell-off is there any concern of the yield curve normalizing i believe seven eight eight eight when the rate cut cycles and 210 univerts
