GM Farcaster ep207 Monday January 27, 2025

From our ChatGPT Intern: Monday's GM Farcaster kicks off with yoga zen versus Nashville country vibes, setting the tone for a whirlwind recap of Farcaster's evolving reward system and surprising crypto demographics from the offline world. With discussions on the rise of niche communities, engineering feats in old forts, and the Philly Eagles' playoff hype, it’s a perfect mix of deep dives and chaotic fun.

The Hub ep11 Tuesday January 28, 2025 with @dylsteck.eth and @adrienne

The Hub is a developer focused podcast for the Farcaster ecosystem with host @dylsteck.eth, with this week’s guest co-host @adrienne. From our ChatGPT intern:The episode dives into Farcaster's developer updates, experimental new tools like Abstract's global wallet, and OpenAI's Operator tech flexes. There's also a sideline rant about crypto primitives sneaking into consumer ecosystems and why no one can get into Yapster's meme games without setting alarms. Bottom line? AI, Solana, and on-chain social apps are cooking—but someone still needs to solve the mystery of too many embedded wallets and how to explain Ethereum to randos on the street without saying “magic internet money.”

GM Farcaster ep208 Wednesday January 29, 2025

From our ChatGPT Intern: Today’s GM Farcaster unpacks everything from FarCon's capsule merch drop (because nothing says ‘crypto conference’ like a limited-edition hat) to the Venice AI airdrop, which had half the community suddenly pretending they always knew what Venice AI was. Meanwhile, Jesse’s onchain street evangelism gets one-upped by @afrochicks' Squid Game-style onboarding hustle, proving once again that free money is the best marketing strategy in Web3.

Vibe Check with @dawufi ep15 with @grace of /unlonely

GM Farcaster ep209 Friday January 31, 2025 with @markfishman /firstdraft

Thank you @markfishman for popping by to chat about /firstdraft club. Learn more in the /firstdraft channel or firstdraft.club. From our ChatGPT Intern: Today's GM Farcaster is a rollercoaster of excitement for ETH Denver, the looming Farcon ticket drama, and whether Farcaster’s new marketing arc is a stroke of genius or just a fever dream. With AI agents threatening to replace influencers, mysterious new wallet icons appearing, and the eternal struggle to explain what Farcaster actually is to non-crypto friends, this episode proves that decentralization is great—until you need to organize a conference.
