Exploring Brad’s Bitcoin Backstory

Magic Internet Money - A podcast by Brad Mills

This is the second episode with Go Full Crypto podcast hosts Keegan Francis and Mrugakshee Palwe. I managed to do an in-person interview with them in my homeland of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. The major focus of this podcast was on financial literacy and the structure of the financial system. Keegan and Mruga ask me lots of questions on my backstory. I got to tell stories from my past that give my audience an insight into why I have so much conviction for Bitcoin after bootstrapping my own financial wellbeing in my 20's. This was a really fun episode to film and you get to learn about the Bitcoin journey all three of us have been on.
