Get to know Mihir, Evan, and Joe a bit better as they share their journeys, talk DeFi, and clear up misconceptions about the Ethereum Merge. Plus, the guys try to talk Mihir into a bedtime-story side hustle, and Evan tells a story about the first time he saw a naked wom--I mean--Titanic. Listen to the whole thing and you might learn something, or you'll find yourself saying "I can't believe they let those guys drive the podcast!" (Honestly, neither can we)
Enjoy!
