In this episode of Sat Chats, Chris and Stewart are bringing the heat with their 30-second Bitcoin pitches for pre-coiners. Why? Because the world needs better orange-pilling. The goal: reach the people in the middle, not just the curious or the already converted.

Chris shares how fatherhood and concern for the future sparked his belief in Bitcoin as a way to protect his family’s freedom. Stewart focuses on building a financial stronghold for his loved ones, no matter what chaos comes from the outside world.

They break down why Sat Chats isn’t just for Bitcoiners, it’s for everyone who’s felt the system isn’t working but doesn’t know what the alternative looks like yet.

We cover:

✅ Why the current monetary system is broken

✅ Why Bitcoin is emotional before it’s technical

✅ The difference between reaching Bitcoiners and reaching everyone else

✅ Chris’s generational freedom pitch

✅ Stuart’s fortress-of-family pitch

✅ Why Sat Chats should be a rite of passage for Bitcoiners

Jeff Booth (Ep. 62)

He joined us days before flying to El Salvador to meet with President Bukele and still brought his full self to the conversation. This episode hit hard because it wasn’t just smart... it was sincere. His message: the future is worth waiting for, and worth building now.

Tricia (Ep. 63)

Walked in wary and walked out stacking. A suburban mom with no Bitcoin background, her episode revealed what it looks like to truly onboard someone... not with hype, but with heart. We talked about trust, family time, and the emotional wall many people hit when first hearing about Bitcoin. Her honesty cracked something open. It wasn’t about conversion—it was about connection.

Oliver (Ep. 64)

Brought the energy of someone who’s lived through what most of us only study. Growing up with hyperinflation and seeing wealth confiscated firsthand, his story wasn’t theory... it was testimony. Now building Beyond the Checkout, he’s turning every grocery aisle into a stacking opportunity. Between scooter regret, gland jokes, and his QR-powered sats drop, this episode reminded us that joy and urgency can absolutely coexist.

This Rehash brings the full spectrum: high-signal thinkers, real-life pivots, and a reminder that Bitcoin conversations are better when they’re human, funny, and grounded in lived experience. Exactly what Rehash is for... reflection, story, correction, and stacking momentum for the road to 99.

In this episode of Sat Chats, we meet Konrad Fitzpatrick—Canadian Bitcoiner, ex-bank teller, and the grandson of Polish immigrants who lived through communism. His first exposure to Bitcoin came through RuneScape gold arbitrage, but it wasn’t long before he started orange-pilling 80-year-old customers at his bank and studying fiat’s collapse from behind the counter.

We unpack how fear, anger, and greed all play a role in orange-pilling, why older folks sometimes “get it” faster than Gen Z, and why Konrad believes Executive Order 6102 is coming for Bitcoiners next—unless you self-custody.

We cover:

✅ Gold confiscation, the Petrodollar, and Nixon's 1971 move

✅ Why salary raises are a lie in a fiat system

✅ Lightning vs. Western Union: cost and speed showdown

✅ How Bitcoin builds “financial muscles” for the future

✅ Roasted Red Pepper hummus and canceled fiat envelopes

Konrad clearly knows his stuff—but he still has to choose: 46,955 sats or $50 in fiat. Does he trust the math… or the paper?

In this episode of Sat Chats, we meet Spencer—front-end dev, early Bitcoiner, and proud grandson of the most legendary Icelandic Napster grandma of all time. His Bitcoin journey started in a political science class during the WikiLeaks era, leading him to mine on a MacBook in the middle of lectures, get called out by his professor, and eventually buy ASICs out of car trunks in Miami with stacks of cash.

We trace his path from peer-to-peer file sharing to peer-to-peer money, explore the hacker mindset that made Bitcoin click, and ask whether mining still makes sense—or if you're better off just stacking.

We cover:

✅ Mining in dorm rooms and garages

✅ Why Spencer still runs a miner today

✅ CIA rumors, Satoshi’s disappearance, and Bitcoin’s origin story

✅ When to buy vs. build

✅ Jalapeño Lime hummus and ungovernable energy

In this Rehash episode of Sat Chats, we revisit three guests who show how Bitcoin hits different. Whether you’re rebuilding from scratch, deep in the code, or confronting your own investing assumptions. What ties them all together? Bitcoin reveals what you value most.

Brandon (Ep. 59) shared one of the most honest stories we’ve had on the show. A former repo man during the 2008 crash, he walked through pain, pandemic rabbit holes, and financial regret—before Bitcoin helped reset his priorities: steak, eggs, time outside, and telling the truth. His clarity hit hard. His message: Bitcoin is the reset.

Simple Steve (Ep. 60) made us feel like node runners and node dreamers. A rocket scientist with Big Lebowski vibes, Steve introduced us to UTX Oracle, gave us his dead-simple Bitcoin standard (credit card now, sats later), and patiently Sherpa’d us deeper into the protocol. We simped. And we learned.

Ann Garland (Ep. 61) walked in with a trucker hat and Dirty Maj energy—and walked out with sats in her stack. Her thoughtful pushback gave us space to confront a big question: why aren’t more women buying Bitcoin? It got real when Chris asked if she knew Apple’s CEO. (She didn’t.) But it wasn’t a “gotcha”—it was a lightbulb moment.

We cover:
✅ What it means to say “Bitcoin reset my life”
✅ How Simple Steve’s method actually puts you on a Bitcoin standard
✅ Why “you ain’t even know” is funny and revealing
✅ The power of challenging someone’s narrative with love

This episode brings the full Sat Chats spectrum: gritty stories, practical tools, and the joy of rethinking what we thought we knew. Exactly what Rehash is for—reflection, story, correction, and stacking momentum for the road to 99.

In this Short Stack episode of Sat Chats, we unpack the surprisingly spicy debate: Should we stop calling them Satoshis and just call them Bitcoin?

Chris and Stewart respond to recent comments from Jack Dorsey and other Bitcoin influencers who suggest the term “sats” is confusing and that we should simplify everything under the umbrella of “Bitcoin.” But... is that actually helping? Or are we erasing one of the most powerful unlocks for newcomers?

We break down:

✅ Why calling sats “Bitcoin” muddies the waters

✅ Why understanding small units helps adoption

✅ The danger of renaming pennies “dollars”

✅ How Sat Chats introduces sats in every single episode

✅ Why sats are essential for long-term clarity and onboarding

06:11 Content Strategy and Audience Engagement

TL;DR — Let us cook, Jack. We just got here. Give us one halving cycle and we’ll handle the sats situation.

In this Short Stack episode of Sat Chats, we break down one of the biggest lies most people still believe: fiat currency has value because… well, it just does?

Chris and Stewart unpack what “fiat” actually means (hint: it’s Latin for “because I said so”) and explain why the money we all use is only worth something because a government tells us it is. We contrast that with hard money—like gold, silver, or Bitcoin—that actually holds value on its own.

You’ll learn:

✅ What fiat really means

✅ Why gold and Bitcoin are not fiat

✅ How the U.S. dollar officially went full fiat in 1971

✅ Why inflation is just a fancy word for “printing more”

✅ The difference between “easy money” and “good money”

Chapters

00:00 Introduction to Fiat Currency

01:09 Understanding Hard Money vs. Fiat Money

05:38 The Evolution of the Dollar and Fiat System

Fiat currency is the money you’re forced to use. Hard money is the one you choose once you understand the game. This episode makes sure you know the difference.
