TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman has a discussion with 3D gun designer Joseph the Parrot about the intersection of 3D printed guns and cryptocurrency privacy. Joseph explained the origin of his persona and his entry into 3D gun printing through JStark's AR-15 CAD model and the FGC-9 (Fuck Gun Control) project.

He described how the FGC-9 was designed to be manufactured with basic tools, outsourcing complex shapes to 3D printers while keeping metal parts simple. The discussion explores the philosophical parallels between Monero and 3D printed guns in fighting state monopolies.

He highlighted his gun design improvements over the FGC-9, creating the first fully printable gun using no regulated parts worldwide. They also cover Joseph's upcoming presentation at MoneroKon and the importance of bridging the crypto and gun rights communities.
