In this episode, Chris and Adam sit down with Dr. Sahil Zaveri, a cardiology fellow in New York City who discovered Bitcoin early in his medical training — and used it as a tool to accelerate his journey toward financial sovereignty.

Sahil shares how he moved from altcoin trading to long-term conviction in Bitcoin, how he introduced his family to sound money principles, and why he believes Bitcoin treasury companies like MetaPlanet and MicroStrategy offer asymmetric opportunities for young professionals. The conversation covers his decision to pursue fellowship despite already reaching financial independence, and why meaning and purpose matter just as much as net worth.

From price checks in the OR to early-stage investing with parental capital, this is a fast-paced, honest conversation about time preference, fulfillment, and the role of proof of work — both in Bitcoin and in life.

Welcome to the first episode of The Bitcoin Fellowship — a weekly podcast for physicians, professionals, and anyone waking up to the cost of staying asleep.

In this inaugural conversation, Chris and Adam — two anesthesiologists from Texas — reflect on the opportunity cost of becoming a physician in a fiat system. They share how Bitcoin reshaped their view of time, energy, and wealth, and why it's not just an investment, but a framework for personal sovereignty.

We discuss why financial literacy is missing from medical training, how inflation silently erodes long-term potential, and how to begin exploring Bitcoin without burning out. If you're a doctor, clinician, or curious mind who senses something broken — this is the conversation we wish we’d heard in residency.

Chris and Adam sit down with the original Dr. Adcock — Chris’ father and a seasoned family physician with over 35 years in practice — for a multigenerational conversation on legacy, medicine, and the failure of the fiat system.

They cover how primary care has changed since the 1980s, what young doctors need to understand about incentives today, and why traditional saving and investing aren’t enough in a system built to extract your time. This episode explores the hidden cost of inflation on family life, housing, and purpose — and how Bitcoin offers a way out.

From EHRs to AI, the conversation dives into what has and hasn’t improved in medicine. Dr. Adcock also shares the moment the orange pill finally clicked for him, and how Bitcoin became more than an investment — it became a philosophy of time, trust, and family resilience.

Welcome back to The Bitcoin Fellowship!

@DocStacks and @SpideyDoc3 break down the latest in Bitcoin news and market behavior, including how the market shrugged off an 80,000 BTC dump from an OG whale — without even flinching.

We unpack the recent price action, Galaxy Digital’s reported Bitcoin sell-off, and how institutional players like PNC Bank are stepping deeper into the crypto arena. Then we look ahead at key catalysts in the coming week — from earnings announcements to protocol developments.

This episode also introduces Strategy’s latest preferred equity offering, STRC (“Stretch”), and what it signals about capital markets and BTC-backed structures.

From there, the conversation widens: we cover advice for new Bitcoin investors, how Bitcoin enables long-term financial freedom, and the growing link between AI’s energy demands and Bitcoin’s proof-of-work incentive. If AI eats the world, who pays the power bill?

We close with a bullish outlook on Bitcoin’s current cycle and reflections on how fiat incentives are being exposed in real time — from job security to generational wealth.

This week on The Bitcoin Fellowship, we sit down with Dr. Ahmad Ammous — physician and brother of economist Dr. Saifedean Ammous, author of The Bitcoin Standard.

Ahmad shares his journey through medicine, how early exposure to Bitcoin shaped his thinking, and why he believes our healthcare system is fundamentally broken. We explore the history of centralized medicine, the fiat incentives that distort patient care, and how hard money and low time preference thinking could radically improve outcomes.

From specialty silos and the erosion of clinical trust to the global implications of Bitcoin for healthcare systems — this conversation pulls no punches.

We also dive into Ahmad’s personal research on circadian rhythm and light exposure, with practical advice to improve your health starting today — whether you’re orange-pilled or not.

If you’ve ever wondered how money and medicine intersect — or why so many doctors are finding hope in Bitcoin — this one’s for you.
