A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs - XMAS BONUS: “Christmas Time is Here Again” by the Beatles

As we’re in the period between Christmas and New Year, the gap between episodes is going to be longer than normal, and the podcast proper is going to be back on January the ninth.

This episode is sponsored by Bitstamp and the Galaxy Brains Podcast.


The most valuable crypto stories for Thursday, Dec. 29, 2022.


Solana (SOL) has dropped as much as 10% in the past 24 hours, adding to a 20% slide over the past week. Selling pressure on the tokens came from their close links to disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, who faces charges of fraud and misappropriation of client funds. Separately, an anonymous Twitter user has obtained around 100,000 API keys belonging to users of the crypto trading service 3Commas.
