30 million Americans are eligible to have their criminal records cleared — but less than 10% ever do. Why? Mark Edge sits down with Dr. Sheena Meade, CEO of the Clean Slate Initiative, at the Libertarian National Convention to talk about one of the most overlooked injustices in America: the invisible cage of a permanent record. With 1 in 3 Americans carrying an arrest or conviction, and over $460 billion in lost wages tied to background check barriers, the stakes couldn't be higher. The Clean Slate Initiative is automating the record-clearance process — no lawyers, no fees, no bureaucratic red tape — for people who are already eligible under existing law and have remained crime-free. They've already opened a pathway for over 18 million people across 13 states and D.C., and are pushing for a federal solution with bipartisan support.

A special on-the-ground episode recorded at the BCH Bliss Conference in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Sal and Mark have a conversation with Steve Thurmond, a Bitcoin Cash enthusiast and creator of Stamps.cash, to discuss BCH adoption, peer-to-peer electronic cash, Cash Fusion privacy, scalability, and the philosophy of freedom money.

Lauren Rodriguez joins Mark Edge at the Libertarian National Convention to share the story of her husband Keonne Rodriguez and William "Bill" Lonergan Hill, creators of Samourai Wallet. In April 2024, both men were raided by the FBI and charged with money laundering and operating an unlicensed money service business — despite FinCEN confirming the wallet was not in violation. After a judge denied every motion, they were left with no choice but to accept a plea deal. Keonne is now serving 5 years and Bill 4 years in federal prison. Visit BillandKeonne.org to sign the petition for a presidential pardon and support their families. Sponsored by SALT Lending.
