I don't but I'm not saying that they are or they're not I'm justI don't, but I'm not saying that they are or they're not; I'm just saying we don't know. You're just making things up to protect your argument. That's ridiculous.

Hey, hey, welcome back, guys! We meant to kick off with me and Dave arguing. Okay, come on, high definition! Whoa, whoa, yeah-new camera! Upgrade! Back in 4K, with small upgrades every time. Today, we've got a new camera-small improvements. Nice, cool. Right, let's get that sorted and move onto the agenda.

Exciting announcement: Mikey spent hours and hours trying to figure out this camera. I know, but we don't want to oversell it just in case people don't notice any difference. Anyway, Danny versus Dave. Too close, though; can't really see it from my angle. Oh, that's really cool! Can you see that? No? Oh, Dave can't see it. Can you turn it around? It's all right; I don't need to see. You want to see yourself? I don't want to see myself.

Look at this! Ready? Like, you always picture yourself as a young, healthy man. Do a little high five-denied! You know when you see images of yourself and you actually have an image in your head of what you look like? It doesn't really age that much. And when you actually see the reality, it's quite depressing how life has worn you down. The young ones wouldn't know that, but at the same age as me, wow, it's ridiculous, isn't it?

Anyway, on that depressing note, welcome back, guys! Britcoin, Episode 145. Sorry for not being here last week. We had some illnesses, didn't we? A couple of sicknesses... No, no, Mikey; I was sick, Mikey! Things going on, unfortunately, yeah.

Right, let's look at the agenda this week. First up, Peter Todd and his reaction to being named as Satoshi. Then we've got Danny Scott, with life lessons that helped his Bitcoin startup. He said he didn't tick him, he "t-i-t it"-it's down there. The ego of the man, to have his own news story ticked on a news agenda for his own podcast, from his own-right, we'll come back to that. Moving on, a British man has lost Bitcoin in a landfill. Then, the Labour Party; we're touching on that again.

Oh, and a bit on Elon Musk! Apparently, he wasn't invited to some big UK investment summit.....
