So, you’d be forgiven for wondering what the hell we’re doing talking to a hairdresser on the podcast.    Frankly, if you’d asked us a month ago if that would ever happen, I imagine a hearty laugh would have been the response. But...a month is a long time in Bitcoin!    Aaron reached out to have a chat and told us that we needed to hear about the confluence of Bitcoin and Hairdressing. So, who the hell are we to dismiss something we had zero knowledge of. And, you know what, he was totally right!    We discuss:  Irresponsible parenting and nasty DM’s  Eurovision  Bitcoin meetups in Essex www.t.me/bitcoinessex  Mainstream clickbait and weather warnings  Extreme career change and the importance of enjoying what you do even if it means starting from the bottom  Supermodels and A-listers  Fiat sucking the life out of the UK hairdressing industry  Shrinkflation  Fear of speaking up  The problem with minimum wages  Unintended consequences when you remove the free market and skew incentives  www.GoSalon.uk   Our poor shampoo choices  Rip-off culture  The power of the QR code. Connecting the physical with the digital.  Win/Win relationships  95% rejection to begin with, but those early adopters are winning  Bizarro Superman  Discounts for Bitcoin gives you a double dip  “Bitcoin Accepted” on invoices  Looking for the pain points in your industry  Static URL’s for curry  Bcash trolling  Small businesses getting rekt by lockdowns  Bitcoin being easier to navigate in real life  Hanging on to a maximalist  Buying the Bitcoin domain for your town      Pod Shout-outs  https://twitter.com/Excellion   https://twitter.com/Bitkiwi1  https://twitter.com/satstothemoon  https://twitter.com/aantonop  https://twitter.com/saifedean  https://twitter.com/ToneVays  https://twitter.com/BitcoinErrorLog  https://twitter.com/mollsoneminding  https://twitter.com/OneMinding_  https://twitter.com/bitcoinbushbash  https://twitter.com/BitcoinerEvents  https://twitter.com/Bridge2Bitcoin    Npubs  Hats: npub1evkn6h4dgkk6ey8mqy90spv2fmfnnzgj8u3h8dgqyql32gs9tywqhdruxp  Brendo: npub1jsauhxc6hjyk5th86qc5z02c9f0cfc7dwszzlj7e9s8wt54w490q4kglr9    Support the Kids Art Competition  https://geyser.fund/project/2bitidiots  Nearly a million sats to be won!
