In this episode of Hashing It Out, the hosts interview Michael Parenti, discussing blockchain technology, proof of work versus proof of stake, and his emigration to Europe to become Exiled Surfer.
They delve into the philosophy of being a cypherpunk and the shift towards cypherpunks revealing their identities to advocate for their principles publicly. Additionally, there’s an intriguing discourse on the concept of network states and parallel societies, exploring how modern technology facilitates new community structures and societal norms.
The conversation briefly touches on the complexities and frustrations of the healthcare system, emphasising the necessity for innovation and alternative structures across various domains.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
