Highlights
Cold open, no co-host in sight.
CEELOS kicked things off calling into the void for his partner: "Baked are you there? Lock in, bro. Stop degening and accept your co-host duties," then rolled the intro song while he waited.
Baked's Monday P&L.
Asked how much he'd already blown on NFTs, Baked reported spending "only $50" on a presale and otherwise flipping his way to a grand profit of "point one one dollar." He added he's finally learning to convert ETH to WETH instead of buying the floor.
The flautas summit.
CEELOS (California) and Val (Texas) reopened the eternal corn-vs-flour tortilla question, agreed to disagree, and moved on — Val was calling in from a Puerto Rico laundromat, backpacking with two bags and headed back toward Vegas.
Baked's mobile office.
Ducking out mid-space, Baked noted he runs "95% of our spaces while driving on the interstate," then handled something at work with the caveat: "don't ask me no questions."
Val's airport survival plan.
With an early Vegas flight, Val laid out her overnight strategy: commandeer one of the mothers' nursing rooms — "I'm gonna hide in there" — and fend off intruders with a strategically implied breastfeeding session.
Respect both ways.
CEELOS vented about the anti-AI sentiment he runs into at his wife's vending events: as an AI artist who says he can also draw by hand, he argued "I respect artists, bro, but respect my artistry too. Respect needs to go both ways."
Chaz's double drop.
chazzgold.eth walked through his year-in-the-making fine-art collab with aka chambo (8 limited editions, 33 each, with a collect-all raffle for a signed print and hoodie), then previewed the Builder Bots AI mint on the 24th — with honorary agent-enabled regens being airdropped to OGs like Poppy, Machiavelli, Jed and Grave the Grateful Ape, and a 50% discount for original 2023 bot holders (about 218 left).
Floba AI.
Chaz plugged Floba (Floba.ai) out of Japan, a video-gen platform with a built-in agent that gave him an ambassadorship and credits; new sign-ups get 300 credits.
The perfect troll.
Right after Chaz confessed he's saving up for an alien-with-a-Mohawk regen, Pancho Villa popped in deadpan: "So happens to be I just bought an alien with a Mohawk regen, bro" — before letting Chaz off the hook.
Newbie meets the bot meta.
Pancho asked, as a self-professed non-computer guy, how to compete in a likely-botted Genesis Bugs mint. Baked offered to verify him into CK's Clubhouse Discord and loop in CK, and the room noted mints increasingly reward holders of existing collections to blunt bots.
Trades and lost wisdom.
Pancho, off early from a 6-to-2 construction shift, worried the industry is bleeding institutional knowledge as older tradesmen retire — a concern he and Baked both extended, half-joking, to who'll be running the world in 20 years.
Beautiful day in the neighborhood.
CEELOS closed with shout-outs to his "designer family" on Ape Chain and a Mr. Rogers-style send-off, encouraging everyone to set the tone for the week and "be nice to one another."

Notable quotes
Baked are you there? Lock in, bro. Stop degening and accept your co-host duties.
This morning? Only $50... But today I've made like, I don't know, point one one dollar.
I do 95% of our spaces while driving on the interstate... So don't ask me no questions.
I respect artists, bro, but respect my artistry too. Respect needs to go both ways.
So happens to be I just bought an alien with a Mohawk regen, bro.
It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood. A beautiful day for neighbors.
Who said what
- CEELOS (@CEELOSFIGG)* — Host. Ran the room, narrated his own degen restraint, roasted Baked, defended AI art, and kept the vibe warm and self-deprecating.
- Baked (@Bakedmetax)* — Co-host, calling in from work/the road. Shared his flip strategy (buy the cool-off, e.g. Bulls), clarified Frenchies/Bugs/Unvault timing, and volunteered to onboard Pancho into the Clubhouse Discord.
- ValerieKates (@valeriekates_)* — Travel correspondent from Puerto Rico, mid-backpacking trip, plotting an overnight airport stay en route to Vegas.
- chazzgold.eth (@chazz_gold)* — Popped up on his lunch break to preview his aka chambo fine-art mint, the Builder Bots AI drop (the 24th), honorary regens for OGs, and the Floba AI platform.
- toomazingTM (@TooMazing265)* — Fellow degen and the night's later host, trading NFT chatter and quick parting words.
- Pancho Villa (@SeFuentezz)* — Construction worker and NFT collector; asked for guidance on botted mints and riffed on lost trade wisdom and the corrupting nature of power.
Worth a full listen
- 39:41–46:27 Chaz's segment. The clearest, most concrete stretch: mint mechanics for the aka chambo editions, the Builder Bots roadmap and honorary regens, plus a genuine Floba AI walkthrough. If you want the actual alpha from this episode, it's here.
- 46:36–50:30 Pancho, bots, and onboarding. A relatable "I don't even own a computer" question turns into practical help and a useful thread on how holder-rewarding mints (à la the Mimus drop) push back on bots.
- 51:32–56:14 Trades and power. The one stretch that drifts off NFTs entirely, into the loss of hands-on wisdom in construction and a musing on why "he sold out" is rarely black-and-white.
