ZEROPOD #11- "We're Just Here to Do Cool Things." - Deadfellaz Cofounder Psych

Zero Rights Reserved: A CC0 Podcast About Nouns, DAOs, NFTs & Ethereum

October 2/2023

On Episode 11 of ZEROPOD, Toady Hawk and Robotfishgirl host one half of the dynamic duo behind Deadfellaz — @psych_nft! We battled against a raging Australian wind storm that caused several wifi interruptions for our guest, determined to persevere and hear about his journey as an artist, the Deadfellaz story, his views on Nouns, and perhaps most excitingly, alpha about their upcoming “Non-TCG TCG” game called RIP! We did our best to polish out the rough patches caused by technical difficulties and we hope you enjoy this one as much as we did. Please LIKE, COMMENT and SUBSCRIBE if you do!
