#114 Professional Tax Evader & undocumented motorist - Dan Taxation Is Theft Behrman

In this episode, Roy sits down with Stewart Crown, a trader, coach, and RG146-certified educator who watched $250,000 AUD of his own crypto portfolio collapse to $23,000 before building a $4 million client-results business teaching others not to repeat his mistakes. Stewart traces his path from discovering Bitcoin through a friend's tip about the Silk Road in 2013, to mining on a CPU for 20 cents a day, to walking out of a corporate job mid-shift after a $500,000 month. They dig deep into the psychology of losing money — Stewart compares it directly to the stages of grief — and Stewart shares his hard line on scam recovery, including why he can't help once crypto reaches an external wallet, and how to actually vet a recovery service before paying anyone upfront. The conversation covers his approach to separating investing from trading, why chasing pre-listing coin announcements no longer works the way it did four years ago, a blunt take on Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX, a lesser-known fact about USDT's ability to freeze accounts, and where AI genuinely helps versus where it doesn't in his trading process. He closes by introducing his own product, GridBotBuilder, built around algorithmic grid-bot trading.

In this episode, Roy sits down with award-winning actor, writer, and producer Niki J. Borger, creator and star of the upcoming sitcom NFTease. Niki traces her path from growing up in Germany with only 10% depth perception, to becoming a musical theatre performer, to transitioning into Hollywood film and eventually producing her own work — including a five-minute short film shot for $367 on two iPhones that went on to earn 20 festival selections, 7 nominations, and 4 awards. They dig deep into NFTease itself: the premise of three insecure NFT-startup founders forced to partner with a group of ”influencers” who turn out to be something else entirely, how the show plans to build its audience through social media before shooting the full series, and the investor structure behind it. Niki also opens up candidly about the realities of the acting industry — vanishing residuals, non-union commercial rates, and her strong stance on AI, consent, and protecting an actor’s likeness — before closing with a full cast rundown for the show’s eight core characters.

Welcome to The Crypto Podcast. You can find all our episodes on thecryptopodcast.org. My guest today spent years inside the room where crypto’s rules actually get written. As a regulatory crypto attorney, he’s advised leading exchanges on exactly what they could and couldn’t legally offer, and he helped launch the first crypto ETFs on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Now he’s on the other side of the table as CEO of Yield School and founder of New Market Trading, helping everyday investors get access to the primary markets that most retail traders never know exist. Please welcome Frank Hepworth.

In this episode of The Crypto Podcast, Roy sits down with Paul Brower, Director of Engineering at Casa — the gold standard in Bitcoin self-custody — where he leads a 12-person team building AI-first workflows to protect billions of dollars in Bitcoin. Before Casa, Paul spent seven years building the first FDA-approved digital pill software, was an early Bitcoin adopter since 2011 (including a Mt. Gox close call), and even spent three episodes on an MTV reality dating show.

You bought Bitcoin early. You held through the crashes, the media panic, and you never sold. So why is your daily life exactly the same? Today’s guest says there’s a third option most crypto holders don’t even know exists — and it doesn’t involve selling a single coin. Brandon Diggs from Overseas DeFi joins the show to reveal what productive crypto actually looks like, and how you can turn your idle holdings into a monthly cash flow machine using Decentralised Finance.
