E182: Uniform of Youth -- Mystic Ventures from Crypto to Skin Care with MadeMan Jeremy Gardner!

After moving out of the public eye for a bit, Jeremy Gardner stops by for a cool conversation. We cover his early years as an only child at tension with his parents for not listening and rebelling against authority; some of this might be attributable to being neurodivergent. Jeremy discusses how his time at the University of Michigan facilitated the development of the Bitcoin Education Network, a nonprofit encouraging blockchain awareness and adoption around the world.

Interacting with more and more people in the crypto space led to the development of the betting platform and prediction market Augur, as well as Jeremy stopping at numerous destinations speaking at Bitcoin conferences. Jeremy reflects on the wild times he had spreading the word about crypto (not to be confused with spreading his seed with many lovely ladies), and why he felt it was necessary to shift his priorities as time progressed.

Jeremy has started up a men's skin cream product called MadeMan which he hopes will get more people talking about masculinity and self-care. He is also the founder of Mystic Ventures, which invests in medicinal applications of psychedelics. Don't miss out on all of this Grade A discussion, especially the part where the country that has the best romantic partners is analyzed in rich detail ;)
