Hi, I'm PJ Vote, you're subscribed to the Search Engine podcast, but this episode you're

listening to is an episode of our crypto island mini series.

We released it in 2022 when the price of crypto was sky high and it was very unclear what

was going to happen or how to cover the story.

There were people who thought these were all scammers who were trying to fleece everyone

and possibly towards the planet.

There were other people who thought that this new technology would make everybody rich

while also changing how government worked.

Unable to predict the future, our small team figured the best way to tell this story

was just to try to understand the people in crypto.

This series is what we made.

The first episode, welcome to crypto island, after some ads.

We are living through a wild moment in American history.

There are conspiracy theorists on house committees, extremists on the Supreme Court, and near

fist fights on C-SPAN, and with an intense White House battle ahead, we need a better

conversation about the latest big election of our lives.

Hosted by four former Obama aides, Pod Save America hosts used their expertise to provide

listeners with a no bullshit guide to democracy.

Every week they break down all the political news that makes us laugh, cry, and scream

into the void.

Tell us, figure out what matters and what each of us can do about it.
