"My view for the future is that the way that we keep podcasting open and protect the precious medium that we have is to help podcasters get paid with this open payment protocol called Lightning. And also now with Nostr to help listeners and podcasters and whoever's interested in podcasts to share episodes, discover new episodes, have conversations around episodes without that being locked to any one app or platform or service." On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks Oscar Merry, founder of Fountain Podcasting. We talk about Podcasting 2.0, Fountain integrating Nostr, Bitcoin, Lightning, value for value, the future of decentralized media, and a whole lot more.
