Free Cities Podcast

Free State Project, Libertarianism, Seasteading, City-States, Proprietarianism, Democracy, Privatized Governance, Immigration, Sovereignty, Liberty Movement, Economic Freedom, Silicon Valley Oligarchs. - Timothy Allen speaks with Mark Edge. Mark is an award-winning radio show host, most famously, one half of 'Free Talk Live' the libertarian radio show he hosted out of New Hampshire with Ian Freeman. In this episode we discuss libertarian projects like New Hampshire’s Free State Project, Liberland, and seasteading as ways to build freer societies, with Mark noting the benefits and limits of concentrating like-minded individuals. We explore privatized city-states, billionaire influence, and the flaws of democracy, advocating proprietarianism where owners prioritize citizens’ well-being. Examples like Bill Gates’ farmland illustrate state and elite impact, while libertarian strategy emphasizes autonomy, freedom, and creating spaces where adults can act freely without harming others.

They discuss their parallel journeys from media and entrepreneurship into Bitcoin, free cities, and building freedom-oriented communities. Timothy explains why many Brits are considering relocation: rising taxes, government overreach, hidden financial burdens, declining freedoms, and a growing push toward digital control systems. He expresses concern about the UK's political trajectory, inflation, and public complacency, prompting him to seek better opportunities abroad for his family. The discussion brings up the increasing appeal of geographic arbitrage and communities that reject restrictive or "woke" policies, contrasting the optimism seen in El Salvador with the UK’s stagnation and the shared belief that pursuing freedom remains essential.

Welcome to bonus episode number 4 of the Free Cities Podcast. These bonus episodes are available exclusively to our subscribers on Fountain.fm , and I’ll be dropping them periodically throughout the year, especially during the weeks when subscribers already have early access to the current main episode. . If you're not on Fountain, you can access the episode here: https://fountain.fm/episode/CznBcyiApWPOqLrYaiZS . Today’s bonus episode is a Plan B Hangout, in which Giacomo Zucco interviews me. According to their website, Plan B Network “Aims to provide the best tools and educational content worldwide, empowering people to regain their sovereignty, from individuals to communities. We are here to help you along your Bitcoin journey.” It’s an educational platform, and Giacomo himself is a bit of a Bitcoin OG, most people in the space know him. I’m currently in the process of writing an educational syllabus for Plan B Network about Free Cities - If you’re listening to this sometime in the future, check out their website at planb.network for the course. Here’s a quick summary of today’s episode so you can decide whether or not to dive in: "In this episode of the Plan B Hangout, Timothy Allen from the Free Cities Foundation discusses the concept of Free Cities, their evolution, and their intersection with Bitcoin and individual freedom. Key topics include the Free Cities Foundation, Prospera in Honduras, competition between governance models, sovereign individuals versus Free Cities, securing a Free City, the relationship between the Free Cities movement and Bitcoin, filtering out scammers and unrealistic projects. And finally, we talk about seasteading." I didn’t know this beforehand, but Giacomo was actually a seasteader back in the day. I might have even rekindled his interest in it. All in all, this should serve as a pretty solid overview of the current Free Cities space and its integration with Bitcoin. Apologies in advance for my croaky voice and occasional shouting; I really need to work on my online interview game… and I will! Enjoy the conversation.

Authoritarianism, Privacy, Surveillance, Bitcoin, Freedom, Technology, Government Control, Autonomy, Community, Responsibility, Democracy, Censorship, Data Sovereignty, Resistance. - Timothy Allen speaks with Susie Violet Ward . Susie is a financial analyst and journalist specializing in bitcoin content. She is also the CEO and co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK. In this conversation we explore the bittersweet reality of living at a time when technological innovation and financial revolution coexist with growing surveillance and control. From the UK’s Online Safety Act to digital IDs and the normalization of data collection, we unpack how our modern conveniences may be costing us more than we realize. Yet amid the concerns, you can find hope, in Bitcoin, in community, and in the power of individual action.

Bitcoin, Culture, Property Rights, Natural Law, Liberty, Democracy, Security, AI, Economics, Personal Responsibility, Geopolitics, Bitcoin Education. - Timothy Allen speaks with Knut Svanholm . In this conversation we discuss the evolution of Bitcoin culture, security, and the balance between fear-based narratives and empowerment through self-sovereignty. Knut highlights natural law, property rights, and the non-aggression principle, connecting these ideas to Bitcoin’s role as a tool for peaceful trade and communication. The conversation also touches on AI’s limitations, personal responsibility within the Bitcoin community, and critiques of democracy versus trade-driven societies. We also explore geopolitics, the erosion of freedom, and how Bitcoin offers hope, resilience, and emancipation for the individual.

Welcome to this bonus episode of the Free Cities Podcast. These episodes are exclusively available to our subscribers on Fountain.fm , and I will be releasing them periodically throughout the year, especially during weeks when our regular episodes are ones subscribers have already had early access to. . If you're not on Fountain, you can access the episode here: https://fountain.fm/episode/727p2ykSx85aTmeNbC8N . Where should I begin with this one? It is a very long episode—over three and a half hours in total—but as always, there is a reason for that. . A bit of background: in November 2022, I was in San Salvador speaking at Adopting BTC, a Bitcoin conference in El Salvador. At the opening party, I met a gentleman by the name of Jake Hamilton and we had a very interesting late conversation over dinner that struck a chord within me. . Later during the trip, I had a day off and reached out to him to ask if he would sit down and and have a conversation with me. Nothing was off the table; the plan was simply to start talking and see where it went. That is exactly what we did. . We began by discussing Urbit, a decentralized operating system that Jake is a developer for. That was my original reason for wanting to speak with him. However, the conversation quickly branched off into a huge range of topics. . When I edit these podcasts, I usually keep a running list of subjects we cover. By the end, it helps me get a clear picture of what we talked about and makes writing an episode description much easier. For this conversation, that list grew to more than sixty topics. To give you a sense of what you’re in for, we started with Urbit and moved on to digital nomadism, ethics, complex systems, artificial intelligence, the Akashic records, Bitcoin and time, Planck seconds, non-computational quantum physics, metaphysics, the origins of humans, the digital realm, religion, Christianity, simulation theory, the end of humanity, DMT, psychedelics and near-death experiences, fasting, spirituality, ketamine, spirit animals, sugar, proof of work, existential traps, narcissism, StarkNet, the Bitcoin circular economy, Bitcoin maximalism, the philosophy of Bitcoin, Bitcoin as monetary critique, digital aliens, the mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto, Neuralink, conflict, and cultural patrimony. And that is only part of the list. . I even asked an AI to summarize it, and it came back with: “Urbit, Bitcoin, digital nomadism, effective altruism, and various aspects of technology, consciousness, and the future of humanity.” I prefer my own list. . This is exactly the kind of podcast I love to make, and I am very grateful to Jake for agreeing to do it. After all, he was just someone I met at a party. We had never met before, and I have not met him since. Yet he was incredibly generous with his time, sitting down with me for three and a half hours at their Urbit developer house in San Salvador. . I think this episode is a perfect bonus because it is quite technical and especially relevant to the Nostr community, the value-for-value community, and of course, Bitcoiners. It has essentially never been heard. I originally recorded it for a podcast I had just started at the time, but that project went nowhere because I launched this show a few weeks later. So this recording has been sitting untouched for a couple of years, just like the other episodes I will be releasing here. . If you want to follow Jake and hear more of his unique perspectives, you can find him on Twitter at his intriguing handle 36_72541890 . He once explained the meaning of that number to me, but I have completely forgotten it, and even ChatGPT cannot figure it out. . Settle in for this one. You may really want to sit back and relax. I hope you enjoy it. I certainly did, and conversations like this are one of the reasons I get up in the morning. . Enjoy.

Welcome to this bonus episode of the Free Cities podcast. These episodes are only available to our subscribers on Fountain.fm or other value-for-value platforms. I’ll be dropping them in the weeks when the regular release episodes are ones you’ve already had early access to, or, like this week, simply because I wanted to share a bonus episode. . If you're not on Fountain, you can access the episode here: https://fountain.fm/episode/s9WEvF6f5fWx8LTONl4f . A little background on this one: it’s part two of two separate conversations I had with the Bitcoin OG Gigi, which, unbelievably, had never been released until now. Back in the summer of 2021, I was working on a personal film project with Australian filmmaker Richard James, who was also on this call with us and appears briefly a couple of times. . My part in the project involved conducting a series of interviews with prominent Bitcoiners, focusing on the subject of proof of work. Then, as now, I believed that understanding proof of work was the key to greater mainstream acceptance of Bitcoin, particularly around issues like energy consumption. Proof of work is one of the hardest aspects of Bitcoin to fully grasp, and since I consider Gigi one of the key voices on this subject, I was grateful to record more than four hours of conversation with him. . This part of the conversation begins with us discussing what was, at the time, the hot topic of the week among Bitcoiners: Robert Breedlove’s very out-of-character endorsement of BitClout, a controversial blockchain-based social network. That incident raised important questions of trust and truth in the Bitcoin space, and Gigi was very publicly involved in the debate. Listening back now offers fascinating insight into what makes Bitcoiners tick. . This is actually the first time I’ve revisited the recording since it was made, and I found it absolutely captivating. Later in the discussion, we venture deep into the Bitcoin rabbit hole, including some riveting exploration of the spiritual aspects of Bitcoin’s emergence, something Gigi speaks about with remarkable clarity. He also shares his powerful personal story of discovering Bitcoin and the transformation it sparked in his life. . Bear in mind that the conversation occasionally slips into a question-and-answer format, which isn’t my preferred style, and recording online brought its own challenges. You’ll notice Gigi’s connection drops out briefly, though I’ve edited it together as seamlessly as possible. . Long story short, this whole project ultimately fell victim to the pandemic, which was still raging in the background as we recorded. You’ll hear us reference it at the start. Around that time, I closed my office and went abroad with my family to escape the draconian measures in the UK. As a result, this interview, along with many others I recorded with other prominent Bitcoiners at the time, has sat idle on a hard drive for the past four years. . I hate seeing work go to waste, so I decided this podcast would be the perfect place to finally share it. There’s a lot of signal here, and I was struck by how much has changed since these conversations in 2021—not only my own understanding of the subjects we discussed, but also the dramatic shifts in Bitcoin’s adoption and public image. . I think you’re going to enjoy this one. I certainly did. Here’s the conversation. Many thanks to Gigi and Richard for giving me permission to release it in full. . Enjoy, and I’ll see you on the next bonus episode.

Real Estate Investing, Bitcoin Standard, Austrian Economics, Property Market Crash, Monetary Expansion, Digital Economy, Inflation Hedge Myth, Free Cities, Proof-Of-Work, Architecture, Japan. - Timothy Allen speaks with Leon Wankum. Leon, a veteran real estate developer speaks about his journey from property and construction into Austrian economics and Bitcoin. Leon challenges the idea that real estate is a safe store of value, arguing that its monetary premium is misplaced in a digital economy. He contrasts the fragility of leveraged property markets with Bitcoin’s fixed supply, warning that utility-based pricing could upend the global financial system. From the demonetization of real estate to the rise of service-oriented housing and Bitcoin-based innovation, Leon envisions a future where property is valued for use, not speculation — and where Bitcoin strengthens resilience, reshapes development, and supports the growth of free cities.

Freedom, John Locke, Privacy, Property, Cypherpunk, Bitcoin, Praxeology, Parallel Economies, Nomadism, Intervention, Sovereignty, Scarcity. Timothy Allen speaks with Max Hillebrand . Max joins me to explore freedom, privacy, and property rights in the free market of ideas. We discuss Cypherpunk strategies, the appeal of Bitcoin, Free Cities, and digital nomadism as ways to resist creeping socialism and surveillance. Drawing on Lockean ownership theory, Austrian economics, and praxeology, Max makes the case for combining decentralization, community, and technology to defend liberty in both physical and digital realms.

Sound Money, Fiat Currency, Economic Inequality, Government Control, Gold, Bitcoin, Monetary Sovereignty, Inflation, Constitutional Currency, Financial Innovation, Glint. Timothy Allen speaks with Jason Cozens. Jason, the CEO of Glint speaks about reintroducing gold as a viable form of money through Glint’s platform, which allows users to buy, store, and spend fractions of physical gold in real time. We explore gold’s enduring role as a store of value, its contrast with fiat currency and central bank policies, and how government control over money contributes to economic inequality. Jason explains how Glint offers a bottom-up solution that empowers individuals with sound money, likening it to Bitcoin but grounded in a tangible asset. They also discuss constitutional provisions for gold currency in the U.S., recent legislative efforts in several states, and the broader push to reclaim monetary freedom through trust, protection, and tax reform.

Timothy Allen speaks with Nick Malster. Nick is the co-founder of Fountain, a value-for-value podcasting app that enables Bitcoin micropayments. In this conversation we discuss the changing nature of work, critique popular economic views, and trace Nick’s journey from advertising to launching Fountain.
