0:00.0	What's up, everyone? This is Anthony Pompliano. Most of you know me as Pomp. You're listening to Off the Chain, simply the best podcasting crypto. Let's kick this thing off.
0:12.6	The following interview is with John McAfee, who many of you will know as the founder of McAfee Software.
0:19.0	I traveled from New York City to Exuma, Bahamas to record this interview in person on John's
0:24.8	boat.
0:25.6	There was no money exchanged, and I paid for everything myself.
0:29.6	While John has plenty of interesting ideas, some are also controversial.
0:34.2	There are aspects of what John says that I agree with, and there are many that I vehemently
0:38.9	disagree with. With that said, nothing that John states in this recording should be taken as an
0:44.2	endorsement by me, Morgan Creek, or any of our affiliates. I felt it was important to allow John

1:24.3	It helps you find liquidity on decentralized exchanges and it optimally routes your trades for execution. So kayak, you find flights. Total, they help you find
1:33.2	liquidity. We should get kayak on it for this spot that I'm providing them, but Total instead is
1:37.9	our advertiser and you should go visit total.com slash pomp. Again, that's total.com slash pomp
1:43.6	and let them know that i sent you tell
1:45.9	them you love their product take a screenshot tweet it at me i'll drop you some fire emojis and then
1:50.9	we'll all be happy so total dot combs slash pomp anthony pompleano is a partner at morgan creek
1:56.6	digital all opinions expressed by pomp or his guests on this podcast are solely their opinions
