Each Friday, the Bitcoin World’s Most Important News
The Bitcoin.com Podcast Network is growing with the launch last month of This Week in Bitcoin, a weekly ten to fifteen minute summary of all things Bitcoin ecosystem. Mr. Aaron is the show’s host by way of Bogotá, Colombia, where he began podcasting for his Food Startups Podcast to promote exporting exotic South American fruit to the United States.
He sheepishly admits to earning his first slice of bitcoin wagering on Donald Trump’s eventual victory in the 2016 presidential election, though he’s careful to explain it wasn’t an endorsement … just cold, cool speculation.

“For those that want to keep up with the Bitcoin world but don’t have tons of time,” he explained to News.Bitcoin.com, “this is a 10 minute weekly show people can listen to on their commute, at the gym, etc. We want to build the #1 podcast network in the cryptosphere, and focus on shows that can be enjoyed by everyone,” he stressed.
Mr. Aaron already has five TWiB episodes in the can, the latest dropped this Friday. Every Friday, in fact, listeners can expect to be greeted by a sultry British rose announcing a fresh broadcast while interspersed with electronica. Mr. Aaron then takes over, presenting the most relevant stories of the week between synth breaks for punctuation.
