    Hearts On Fire | PMM 17

    In this episode of PMM, Jon & Max reflect on what the show has been, what it is, and where they want to take it next. They talk candidly about ditching rigid prep and Bitcoin-only rails to embrace broader, real‑world building: skills, tools, community, and practical sovereignty. From Jon's first local educational event with Fundamentals and Shadrach, to celebrating the high‑functioning doers in the Meshtadel, the focus is shifting toward action over theory—featuring people who actually build things, run businesses, and strengthen local resilience.

    If you’re building in the physical world—carpentry, fabrication, energy, agriculture, logistics—we want to hear from you.

    Jon & Max outline plans to spotlight community makers via the Meshconomy boxes and profile series, and bring in experts who’ve scaled from tinkering to serious enterprise. Expect more voices, more practical guidance, and more bridge‑building between our digital chats and tangible outcomes. The invitation is open: if you’re doing the work, come on and tell us what you’ve built and what others can learn from it.

    Stay Ungovernable.

    Ungovernable Podcasting | The Confab 26: Barry & ChadF

    In this episode of The Confab,  Max sits down with Barry (Podhome) and ChadF to chart where independent podcasting is headed and why Podcasting 2.0 still matters. They dig into keeping speech free via open RSS, the practical trade-offs of centralized platforms, and how value-for-value actually works in the wild—from Lightning boosts to Monero tips, funding tags and fiat donation pages. 

    Barry shares Podhome’s ethos (don’t deplatform lawful speech), its all‑in features for creators, and what’s next on the product roadmap. ChadF traces the lineage from No Agenda to today’s Podcast Index, explains the messy reality of wallets, Keysend vs LNURL, and why onboarding listeners is the real nut to crack. 

    Max, Barry and ChadF also cover chapters and artwork as creative glue, treating your show like a business without expecting it to pay the bills, and why word‑of‑mouth still grows the best shows. If you were ever wanting to start a podcast, then there's some really good advice to get going.

    ChadF closes with his recent “vibe coding” builds, including a self‑hosted music player for The Doerfels and his StableKraft app that curates value‑for‑value music into a proper listening experience—all pushing the open, independent future we want to see.

    A Pioneer Miner Story (II)
    In episode 2 of 2, Jon takes you behind the scenes of a year-long grind to resurrect a coal bed methane site and turn stranded gas into hash. From first setting eyes on a fenced-off relic of Western Pennsylvania’s industrial past to firing up the compressor and plumbing an entire valve bank and trunk line, he share the setbacks, small wins, and the sheer stubbornness it took to keep going.

    You’ll meet Mark Lidecker—the 50-year oil and gas veteran whose story and mentorship anchored this project—along with the friends and hard‑charging helpers who kept showing up at 3 a.m., threading pipe, moving 40‑foot towers, and dragging generators down goat tracks in Western PA.

    Jon and Max talk honest energy, regenerative agriculture dreams, and the raw logistics of building an off‑grid operation: scavenging and reviving generators, managing negative pressure and heat, designing for excess gas, and learning the craft one union and leak at a time. More than a technical tale, it’s a lesson in mentorship, faith, family support, and community— the Pleb Miner Mafia, the Meshtadel and countless hands—turning doubt into momentum.

    A Pleb Miner Story (I)

    HELP GET SAMOURAI A PARDON

    In episode one of two special episodes, Max sits down with Jon for a candid, filthy and surprisingly moving tour from “pleb” garage miner to genuine pioneer. They trace his journey from a 2012 PC experiment and S9 heat-capture hacks, through the China exodus era, to building community with Ungovernable Misfits, Pleb Miner Month/Monthly, and the Meshtadel. Along the way Jon and Max revisit the friendships, prayer calls, old-head mentors, and on-the-ground graft that shaped his thinking—plus the hard stats that kill LARP-y mining dreams.

    We close on the big pivot: site scouting in Western Pennsylvania, dead ends with utilities, natural-gas learning curves, a providential phone call, and the discovery of a coal-bed methane opportunity sitting almost in his backyard—full circle from pleb to pioneer.

    It’s an unfiltered story about doing rather than tweeting: heat capture ingenuity, failed deals, community-led breakthroughs, and the relentless grind behind assembling land, power, and gas to make real-world mining work. If you’ve ever wondered how pleb-scale curiosity becomes pioneer competence, this is the blueprint—complete with detours, dents, and a few flaming arrows for good measure.
