0:08CI’m Benny. I’m Esteban.
0:13BHey, I’m John.
0:15CI’m Rugrat. Actually, he dipped out. Yeah, I just
0:18Dmissed him,
0:19Cbut I didn’t. Okay. Today we’re here at Pizza DAO.
0:21ALet’s go. You guys are musicians, multi-talented temple students. Yeah. Hype yourselves up. Hype yourselves up.
0:27CYeah, we multifaceted, we make music, produce, play streams, video, audio, anything you need,
0:35Eyeah, anything you need,
0:36Cvideo, audio, music, yeah, events, events, that’s kind of, you know what I’m saying,
0:44Abro, gas it up, buy on your resume, right, is what they say,
0:48Cthat’s true,
0:49Aso what’s your question for our friend here, you guys are coming to learn about Pizza DAO, you’re like, what is this thing, yeah,
0:54Cyeah, what do you want, like, people, like, in college who are coming to something like this to take from it like if they have no like sort of investment in crypto or like anything in general like what would you want us to take from here um
1:07Bthat DAOs can exist for reasons other than to rug people right
1:22Ci didn’t
1:35Eknow that was any
1:36BAny organization that governs a blockchain-based treasury through voting mechanisms, right? So that’s like a wide variety of things.
1:47AYeah, you’re allowed to ask all the questions to have a Bitcoin free free.
1:51BBut if that makes sense, like... Yeah, can you explain that one? Okay, so like Pizza DAO has a position in ETH, for example, which we have staked in Zoning Interest. We have like various other, you know, tokens and assets that are worth money. and we use this to buy pizza. Well there’s a governance process of how they get spent on pizza and that’s done by a voting mechanism which is collective whitelisted to people who own the pizza box NFTs. So that’s right you know governance of a on-chain crypto treasury that they secured through a multi-sig.
2:36AWhat do you say is like analogous to a doubt
2:40Cand like non-competitive accounts? Come on,
2:43Ayou gotta have these things ready,
2:47Cthanks. Yeah,
2:47Awhere’s the notepad?
2:48BYeah, like there isn’t really too much, but like you can think of it like corporation shareholders, right? If you own stock, certain types of stock, you can go to like a building and you can go to a shareholder meeting and you can vote and decide what the company does. Sounds like that, but with tokens on the blockchain Are
3:11Dyou telling them my secrets?
3:12EI am, yeah I’m gonna have to explain
3:13CYou didn’t get to the good parts yet
3:16BYeah, they’re gonna get all your business coins
3:18EOh, all of them?
3:19AYeah
3:21CHow does the money flow around? Where does it come in through? Money? Yeah, how does income flow in through?
3:29BSo Pizza DAO mostly goes through sponsors. That’s why I took the event. There’s like 10 sponsors. Okay. Right. So people like want to sponsor these particular events, you know, because for the promo for them. Right. But originally Pizza DAO was raised money through NFTs, right? We did an NFT sale, which was the thing when people cared.
3:57CWhen people care?
3:59BYeah, irrationally so.
4:01CExplain when people care. 2021. Yeah, I remember that. There’s
4:04Ba whole different... 2020 to 2021, a
4:07Awhole different universe. Act around the Tory group.
4:11CBut... Yeah, sure. Take my mic. Yeah, I think you know
4:15Aright now. Take it.
4:16CIt’s like very like... Oh, yeah. You’re gonna
4:20Abe on my YouTube, though.
4:21CWelcome.
4:21BSweet. I’ll be on the YouTube channel.
4:24CDo you have like a catchphrase or anything that you say to your YouTube?
4:27AWelcome to We Them Media,
4:31FBooyah. Booyah Booyah
4:34BThat’s a good one I did see a bunch of your videos in Denver In Denver You had a bunch of videos
4:43AWe were shooting videos, you saw us shooting, right?
4:45BI saw some of them you posted
4:47AOh, like me interviewing people in Denver After I left, after everybody left, yeah Yeah, I don’t know the whole story, but some of them are kind of interesting
4:54EI appreciate that,
4:55Alet’s go I’m trying to get after it here in Philly now That’s kind of my energy. I was there, I kind of explored, I experimented. I have some friends in Nigeria who are kind of getting on the train with me. And I have some friends in Kenya, but they’re kind of iffy about it, you know. But I’m trying to get these guys inspired. So I’m trying to see, can we kind of set up a different kind of pseudo-chapters of content creators to leverage our platform? You know, so we’re doing community reporting, but then we also have people who are doing stuff, documenting what they’re doing, and it’s getting as much amplification as me going to your local business or talking to our neighborhood street homeless person.
5:41FI’ve been hearing a lot of things about this Philly captain. Can someone explain, can we get like a lower breakdown? Can we get a lower breakdown on the Philly captain, please? The
5:50CPhilly captain,
5:50Dhe’s got this really fast scooter and he raced around Philly.
5:54FHow fast?

6:09FSo can you explain where that stems from before we get into those last details?
6:13DThey had to use a metric speculum to inspect me when I was born.
6:19FJust a second, how do we fail about a metric? That’s
6:23Ca good answer.
6:27DYou had a question?
6:29CWhat was the question?

8:50CI don’t trust horsewomen
8:51FSo uh... Where’s
8:55Cyour distrust of horsewomen coming from? I’m from New Hampshire, they’re usually racist
9:01DSo I knew someone, I knew a girl in Kindergarten that called it New Hamster and we all laughed at her
9:05BNew Hamster?
9:06DYeah, New Hamster

9:24AThe editing software I use is YouTube Studio.
9:27DOkay, that’s better than nothing. So you can blur this man’s face is what you’re telling me.
9:31ANo, that would be an intro camera. I’m an amateur. I don’t do things like that. Absolutely. Alright, so where are we going next? Um,

9:53CHe just clipped it on my neck, I think. He just clipped it on his neck.
9:56AOh, well that’s fair, that’s a tie day. But pizza day is like a global, like the first thing anybody ever bought was Bitcoin was pizza. Really? They bought two pizzas for like $10,000 of Bitcoin. Okay. So this organization, they throw a pizza party every year on the anniversary, May 22nd. Interesting. And over 100 countries and over, I think, 100, oh 50 cities. Over 100 cities too, I guess, obviously. They’re doing this pizza party around the world. It’s all funded by crypto sponsors. Hi. Hi.
10:20CAre you invested in Bitcoin? This is Jester. Jester?
10:24EOkay. You want to be interviewed?

10:35CI’m sorry?
10:36AI was asking if you wanted to be interviewed.
10:38ENo, thanks.
10:39AThat’s valid answer.
10:43CHi, Chester. What’s up, Dougie? What do you think about AI? Ask me again?
11:00FWhat do you think of AI?
11:04CI agree
11:06AMy two friends who don’t know much about crypto, so I’m asking them to be journalists, and we’re kind of seeing how that goes
11:15CWe’re playing a little dumb and dumber stage
11:17AWell, I think it’s a dark room there, so it’s like blood cuts
11:21EWhat’s your name? Oh,
11:24Beveryone calls me Elvis
11:27CMaceo Maceo It goes till 9

12:05ASo where are we going now? You guys are talking to somebody
12:10CWe can talk to everybody
12:12AYou pick
12:14CI don’t know what questions Yeah, can you give us some like random questions.
12:18AOkay, um, what why should I care about nows and crypto? Like why is any of these stuff important? What do you guys preconcept into crypto and ask them to assess your preconceptions? Scam. So ask them to unpack your preconceptions. You guys are like, what’s it called? Not the Prisoner’s Dilemma. The people who are always disagreeing. Devil’s Advocate?
12:45CThat’s why I think you should wear the glasses I should wear the glasses I feel like if I put the glasses on You’re gonna look like a fucking
13:00Epsychedelic crypto
13:01CI feel like I’m falling into an archetype if I put the glasses on You know what I mean? Like Neo Nah, I feel like I’m falling into an archetype of people who interview people with glasses on if I put them over my eyes.
13:15AAndrew Callaghan has been wearing bottles in his overwear suit.
13:19CNo, I’m not saying it’s not a thing. It works sometimes. But I feel like I’m following into that art set. That’s perfect though.
13:23AI hear you. I hear you. It wasn’t intentional. It just happened. Well now it’s on video.
13:28FNow it’s confirmed. This video actually blew up a week later. Yeah, facts. No gimmicks here.
13:36CThis isn’t a gimmick. I just wanted free beer. Mmm. Actually I want to talk to the guy who we like the first guy who was found here with like The hair that’s kind of up like that
14:55ENo harm, no foul. The dog did lick it, though, it was one of them.
15:10AYeah, that’s it.
15:21CI got that first. Just to be clear, Esteban said that first. I stole it.
15:29EMan of integrity. Maybe right here. This is quiet enough. This is pretty good. And it has a white backdrop, so like, you know what I’m saying? When you’re keying it for color, yeah, you got the nice, uh, you got the nice, uh, nice, uh, but just give me this before you start recording, what, um, what are we, like, talking about?
16:00CReally anything, um, we just wanted to ask, like, what brought you into cricket?
16:05EFree pizza. Just straight click.
16:06CThat’s why I’m here. Testing, testing, one, two, we good? you guys are going through right over again national favorite uh crypto pizza flavor let’s keep going man
16:37Ethe show must go on
16:39Ca pizza flavor that’s nationally renowned by the crypto like what’s the number one
16:49Echeese man yeah
16:53Cokay
16:54Anow that we got that out of the world i got pizza on my face
16:58Cjust keep going don’t
17:02EDon’t worry about it. There’s always going to be somebody interrupting you, just keep going.
17:06CYeah, you got to put the table on me. I keep getting distracted by it.
17:09EOkay, so you’ve been waiting all day for this pizza. No, it’s not. Yeah, it is now.
17:19BAlright, cool cool.
17:20ESee, I’m shutting the mic off. Um, so, what did you feel when you took that first bite of free pizza? It’s fine. It felt free. Like, it’s like that song.
17:32CThe best thing in life. Alright. I got a question for you, though. Why don’t people care about crypto?
17:41EBecause it’s the wave of the future. It’s either get with it or get lost. Pretty soon cash is going to be worth nothing. It’s already worth nothing right now. You know what I mean? It’s going to be like the toilet paper in his bathroom. The 20 I give you right now is only the value you put on it. It’s not backed by gold anymore. It hasn’t been backed by gold since the 70s.
18:06CWhy crypto over investing in assets?
18:08EI mean, you have to be multifaceted. You can’t just do what one approach is not going to do everything You know what I’m saying? So you got to get crypto, you got to have a diverse portfolio How have you diversified? You know, I got crypto, I got stocks, I’m playing around with options I haven’t already done anything with real estate yet You go ahead man,
18:34Ajust keep going Just keep it moving
18:39ESo, yeah, I suppose, like, you gotta, you know, like, the old folks say, man, you don’t, you know, put all your eggs in one basket
18:46CSo, where would you recommend it?
18:54EI mean, Bitcoin, obviously, it’s the first and most, you know, most stable But, you know, go with the trends, you know what I mean? Being younger, you have the heart and mind to be more riskier So, you can stomach a loss and bounce back. You know what I’m saying? You got more time.
19:19CI do like risk.
19:22EFor example, when you’re at your job, your 401k, they tell you to be risky at your 30. But when you’re 57 years old, you’re not going to be risky with your portfolio.
19:32CI’m not going to be risky if I’m breaking my bag.
19:38EThat’s what I’m saying, you do it while you’re young, because you got the most age to grow, but if you lose 30% of 10,000 when you’re 32, as a 30% of 2.3 million when you’re 57, what’s going to hurt more? That’s a good question.
20:01CThat’s simple mathematics. If I had 2.3 million, I don’t think I would care that one. True. No.
20:09E30% of it, though. Come on, dawgs.
20:13CAnd if you’re a 2 or 3 billion, you don’t know if any liquid or not that can be in stocks, so 30% of a billionaires, you know, stocks could be in everything.
20:20ESo like, yeah, like, so you got me a rumor. Nah, man, you want, you want to take those losses while you’re young, man, and learn. You don’t want to, like, rate the game, so yeah. I think that’s for everything, you know. I just, right here, you think people win. It could
20:33Abe worse.
20:37EExactly! You know, like, I mean, like, if you only have, like, $10,000 in 401k, yeah, that’s $3,000, but that’s what, like, that’s nothing
20:47Acompared to what you’re losing.
20:51EI mean, I know people, like, at my old job, like, the one lady, she’s like, yeah, I’m going to have my old job. Oh, my bad. Like, the one lady at my old job, she’s like, yeah, I’m going to have, like, a million after I retire. So, if you need 30, that’s $300,000. Yeah. Yep. Oh man, what’s your favorite DeFi wallet?
21:21CHow about you?
21:27AYou don’t know
21:31Ethat I know what it is
21:33BYeah, there you go
21:34EBut I don’t know what it is Look, let’s clear this up I do not know
21:51CThat was really insightful though That was a good analogy
21:55EWhere can they find you? DJ Finesse on Twitter DJ P-H-I-N-E-S-S-E Also on Instagram Spelled the same way If you want to send me tips, it’s djfidesz.eth Let’s go Let’s go
