This episode is sponsored by minima.global and Circle.


The most valuable crypto stories for Monday, Nov. 7, 2022.

As speculation mounted over the weekend about the solvency of Sam Bankman-Fried's FTX crypto exchange, the CEO tweeted in part on Monday that "FTX is fine. Assets are fine." Last week, CoinDesk published a story revealing the balance sheet of FTX sister company Alameda Research was loaded with FTX's native exchange token FTT, leading to a war of words between Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison and Binance CEO Changpeng "CZ" Zhao. Plus, a closer look at OpenSea's outlook on NFT creator royalties.

The Allusionist - 164. Emergency

When is a war not a war? When the British Empire called it an 'emergency' so they didn't have to abide by wartime rules or lose their insurance payouts. Artist and researcher Sim Chi Yin reflects on the Malayan Emergency, a 12-year conflict that doesn't get talked about much now by either side; and historian Charlotte Lydia Riley considers the various reasons why the British opted for the term 'emergency', and why they don't celebrate even when they supposedly won them.

Take This Pod and Shove It - LIVE in Chicago with Clark Jones, Lucia Whalen, and Mike O’Keefe

This week we present the fun and slightly-chaotic live show recorded at The Lincoln Lodge in Chicago in late October 2022. On this episode we chatted with comedians Clark Jones (@clarklarewjones ), Lucia Whalen (@luciawhalen), and Mike O'Keefe (@themikeokeefe) about what they think is the best "gateway" country song. This, of course, turned into a friendly competition, and was followed by some panel vs audience country music trivia.

This episode was guest produced by Jesse Betend (@jessebetend), a talented podcast producer and editor living in Chicago.
