WAGBi launch day π¦
Host: Waldo (@waldoforrealz) Β· Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2026 Β· Duration: ~8h28m Β· Speakers: 17 detected (about a dozen active)
TL;DR
- Launch day for WAGBi β a base "builder cat" token co-created by Wagby and Toasty (@ewwwtoasty1), with Waldo turning his own for-reels space into an all-day/all-night support broadcast that ran past the 8-hour mark.
- The pitch: WAGBi = "We All Gotta Build It," the payoff of a builder-cat/hard-hat meme the crew says they've been running since roughly February β and which a bigger "base cat" token then borrowed. Community-first, invite-only, devs holding just 2%.
- Charity thread: for-reels NFTs are being sold with proceeds going to "crypto for her," and the room crossed $318 raised during the space.
- Running bit of the night: Toasty cranking out Wagby hard-hat PFPs one by one for nearly everyone who spoke, framed as OASHA-certified "2x durability" gear.
- The back half turned into a genuinely funny hang: a fart-influencer guest, a plan for fart-and-donkey-milk coffee, a live soccer play-by-play from a guy who left mid-match, and a 4:30am arrival on mushrooms.
- Underneath the jokes, several heartfelt stretches about the community being real friendship and being "early" through the bear market.
Highlights
[19:04] β Why they finally launched. After ribbing Wagby about never sleeping again ("you just gave birth today"), Waldo asks for the lore. Wagby ([20:19]) lays it out: builder cats in hard hats were their thing first, and even the base-cat dev gave him credit for it β so they decided to "claim what's ours" with a token.
[22:59] β Community over chart. Toasty explains he sent Brandon $100 just so a longtime homie wouldn't miss the initial holder tier, and repeats his one priority: getting the whole extended community (for-reels, lamp, Halloween, trash, Momville, Midas, Kittisons) in β regardless of what it does to a wallet-clustering chart.
[30:23] β "Community is us." Waldo draws the line between a paid cabal listing and organic reach, noting his own PFP just got reshared by Yucky Ducks β "that's organic, and that's real community marketing." One of the most-affirmed moments of the night.
[39:04] β The "plank floor" reveal. Waldo nearly calls out a mystery wallet ("plank floor") that swept charity NFTs β until he realizes it was Toasty buying anonymously. The tally hits $318 for crypto for her, dwarfing last year's $25 donation, plus a secondary-market sale that put ~$33 in another holder's pocket.
[51:51] β The Toasty photo twist. Toasty finally shows his face; Waldo, who'd apparently spent months assuming a certain AI thirst-trap pic was Brandon, is floored β kicking off an all-night "Toasty is secretly Ashton-Kutcher-handsome" running gag ([52:36]: "my kidneys are actually nowβ¦ that is hilarious").
[1:28:32] β The CTO handoff. Waldo reveals the "for-reels chill space" was secretly a Wagby launch party, hands Wagby the host seat and starts onboarding everyone with hard hats. Peak silliness around [1:31:41]: "I will only be talking about cats in blue hats, and I'll make it rhyme every time."
[2:32:18] β The sincere core. Waldo, coming off a hard week and group therapy, talks about the crew as actual family β people who DM'd, showed up, and got him through it. Wagby ([2:37:41]) answers that he's just glad the space they "threw up" gave Waldo somewhere to land.
[5:14:28] β Enter the fart influencer. Guest Jesse arrives and the room finds its second wind: "Nobody was talking about farting, so it's my niche. I am the number one fart influencer on X." What follows is a genuinely deranged, warm hour of fart-coffee business planning, amusement-park war stories, and Toasty's throw-out-back-while-farting hospital tale.
[7:27:20] β 4:30am, mushrooms, and a rescue. keRRy (@kerrymcook) β appearing as "Carrie" β surfaces wandering the house unable to sleep, spots Waldo's live space, and gets talked back into reality. Made co-host, she MCs the final stretch and delivers the night's most-cheered speech ([7:49:14]): the survivors are "the soldiers," and one day they'll look back and marvel they got to "buy Solana at a hundred dollars."

Who said what
- Waldo (@waldoforrealz) β Host and the night's engine; for-reels founder, hard-hat ringleader, and the guy who kept a packed room going for 8+ hours while ping-ponging between banter and genuinely tender community talk.
- Toasty (@ewwwtoasty1) β WAGBi co-creator and the artist quietly cooking hard-hat PFPs for everyone all night ("I'll be backβ¦ I can't multitask"); community-first, later the accidental heartthrob.
- Wagby β Launch-day dev of WAGBi; explained the lore, took the host seat mid-space, and spent the night onboarding "one by one."
- keRRy (@kerrymcook) β Arrived deep in the night, got made co-host, and closed the show with both the funniest bits and the most sincere "we're early" speech.
- Brandon β Kittisons/Persident artist; soundboard chaos agent, NFT buyer, and one half of the "not-not-Brandon" confusion after a second Brandon showed up.
- Jesse β Guest fart influencer whose arrival powered the back half; amusement-park lore and the fart-coffee venture.
- Bilabong β Early supporter; framed the group as a "community of communities."
- Pengy Pang β Ran a doomed spinning-PFP experiment; golf/North Carolina/plushie tangents.
- trash, Sam, Bright β Longtime supporters who stayed to (or past) dawn; Bright offered a warm outsider read on the whole community.
- Whisper β Dipped out to play a Saturday-morning football match and kept phoning in the score.
Worth a full listen
- [2:31:47]β[2:37:41] β The community/friendship stretch. Waldo is unusually open about a rough week and what the crew means to him, and it's the emotional anchor the whole marathon keeps circling back to.
- [5:12:00]β[6:50:00] β Jesse's arrival through the fart-coffee/donkey-milk brainstorm. A summary can't do the deadpan absurdity justice; it's the room at its funniest and most alive.
- [7:27:00]β[7:53:00] β keRRy's 4:30am appearance and the "we're the soldiers / we're early" speech, which lands the eight-hour hang somewhere genuinely earnest before the closing songs.
