On this episode of You Deserve A Drink, @rizzle and @matthew dive deep into a couple of topics thar are at the forefront of many Centians minds like buying #CryptoArt on all the major marketplaces and the continued adoption of the social money phenomenon. We wrap things up by focusing on community and talking about some amazing Cent posts.

On this week's installment of You Deserve A Drink, @matthew talks a little about what it was like at Devcon V aka "The country club of crypto." Then @rizzle talks about his...hilarious struggles leading up to finally cracking the latest #n0quest puzzle that @n0shot put together along with @puffin and @skeenee in @CryptoVoxels.

@rizzle and I get this episode started by discussing the Social Money phenomenon that @connie, @skeene, @mightymoose, @mera, and several others have been getting involved in focusing on the deep collaboration aspect between fan and creator.

This week I had the chance to speak with @kaiviti, whom many already know is the proprietor of the CryptoVoxel based Crypto Corner Cafe (CCC) where digital artists such as @connie and @n0shot are currently featured, while we were both inside the CryptoVoxels world. We speak about his goals and aspirations with the CCC plot, the idea of potentially featuring the You Deserve A Drink podcast in the c...

This episode is a bit of a grab bag. First we start off talking about non-cryptoart NFT projects like @marblecards, CryptoKitties (plus kittyrace.io and kittyhats.co), 0xUniverse, My Crypto Heroes plus a million and one shitty CryptoKitties knock offs. We wonder if @johan could explain more of the mission behind @MarbleCards and touch on @sinkas' back-to-back sales of two of his MarbleCards. Next...

There have been several stellar recent additions to Cent that have hit the ground running from their very first posts. @goldkey is one of those people. I had the pleasure of synching with @goldkey the other day to talk about how he honed his graphic design and gif making skills. Turns out the man hadn't made any motion graphic gifs until after he joined Cent. He was simply inspired by the amazing...

@rizzle and I kick the episode off talking about the super thought provoking post from @slunk entitled 'Forever alone in crypto'. From there we lock in on the early signs of non-crypto communities starting to pop up like @mshep17's fantasy football league recruitment. And @rizzle drops a bomb of an idea: Secret Centa. It's a good one.

This week I had the great fortune to lock down a couple of minutes to chat with the incredibly deep and wise @djliethalskillz. We started off talking about his childhood growing up amidst the civil war in Lebanon and hoe he was able to escape the sound of bombs and war through hip hop.  sound of bombs and war through hip hop. From there we branch out into how Skillz came across crypto and blockcha...

In the first episode of season two, @matthew is joined by new co-host @rizzle.

A quote from the recent New Yorker piece on the moderators of HackerNews sets the tone for the community theme this week.

I discuss @ClayCal303's recent post on 'Centronicities' or moments of syncronicity that occur often on Cent, reflect on my lack of activity in the reply section of my own posts and set a date/time (21 August 2019 @ 6pm PST) for a live meet up in the Cent Global Chat

This week I read a quote from Lewis Mumford's 1961 'The City in History' that shares strong parralels with points made by Sonal Chokshi about the future of podcasting that she made on the most recent episode of the Software Engineering Daily podcast.
