*“Without maximal adoption of Bitcoin, the revolution has failed. And our children will not be living in the world that we want to give them.”*

In this episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker America interviews Avi Burra, an engineer-turned-filmmaker, about his new Anthony Bourdain-inspired food and travel show "Finding Home," which explores the stories of Bitcoiners, expats, and immigrants finding a sovereign home in Bitcoin while showcasing their lives and culinary experiences.
