In tonight's episode, Ben, Matt and Noel dive into what happened, how it happened, and whether there's a cover-up afoot. Most importantly, will there ever be justice for the tens of thousands of victims of the Bhopal disaster?

Song Exploder - Shania Twain – You’re Still The One
Shania Twain is a singer and songwriter from Ontario, Canada. She’s the only female artist to have had three consecutive Diamond albums — albums that have sold over ten million copies. Actually, her 1997 album Come On Over is the best-selling album by a female solo artist of all time. One of the most iconic songs from that iconic album is "You’re Still The One." It was co-written and produced by Mutt Lange, who had previously produced some other classic albums, like Back in Black by AC/DC and Pyromania by Def Leppard. He had also produced Shania Twain’s previous album, The Woman in Me. For this episode, Shania told me the story of writing “You’re Still The One.” She told me about what the song meant to her when she was making it, over 25 years ago, and what it means to her now.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - MARKETS DAILY: Crypto Update |Bitcoin ETFs Trade $111 Billion and Assessing the Launch Timeline for Ethereum ETF
The latest price moves and insights with Helene Braun and Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise.
To get the show every day, follow the podcast here.
On "Markets Daily," CIO of Bitwise, Matt Hougan, joins Markets Daily with insights on the recent trends in crypto assets, focusing on Bitcoin and Ether, and how ETFs have influenced their trading volumes. It credits the success of Bitcoin ETFs to making Bitcoin more accessible to a broader investor base. Hougan also explores Bitcoin's volatility and its potential to reach new highs, while addressing the outflows from Grayscale's GBTC and the chance for reduced fees. Additionally, the impact of Fed Chair Jerome Powell's upcoming speech is considered less significant than the effects of ETF inflows and the Bitcoin halving event on Bitcoin's price.
Takeaways |
- Bitcoin ETFs have contributed to increased trading volumes and accessibility of Bitcoin to a wider range of investors.
- Bitcoin's volatility is seen as part of a fixed channel, and the expectation is that it will surpass its previous all-time high.
- Outflows from Grayscale's GBTC are attributed to the availability of lower-cost products and the need for investors to do due diligence.
- The introduction of an Ethereum ETF may be more beneficial after the market has had time to digest Bitcoin ETFs.
- The flows into ETFs and the Bitcoin halving are expected to have a greater impact on Bitcoin's price than the actions of the Fed.

Time To Say Goodbye - In Defense of Normie Liberals and the F Word Debate with John Ganz
Hello!
Today’s guest is the John Ganz, author of the Unpopular Front substack and the upcoming book “When The Clock Broke.” We talk about the now years-long debate about whether what’s happening among the right wing in American should be called “fascism” and how such definitions should and should not be used in a political manner. We also talk about normie/resistance liberals and the concept of a popular front that needs to exist to defeat all that Trump might bring with him into office.
These links will be a helpful primer if you’re unfamiliar.
