LT3 #77 — A New Me

Host: Superhighgasfees ❤️ (@SHGFees) · Sun 19 Jul 2026 · 1:02:49 · 4 speakers

TL;DR

• LT3 hits day 77 with a reflective topic: what happens when a part of you "dies" and a new version is reborn. [16:31]
• Super (@SHGFees)^* opened by noting how detached he now feels from FOMO, using the day's hot "stonk brokers" mint as his example — happy for friends winning, no longer chasing the flip. [12:01]
• Everyone traded personal "old wound / new me" stories: Super leaving skateboarding, Sho (@AgogoKaren)^* and her husband being betrayed by a clinic 20 years ago, BeeCuz (@BeeCuzFuture)^* losing his throwing arm and later his Marine Corps career, and Sufz3 (@Sufz3_)^* his faith turnaround. [17:37]–[42:51]
• BeeCuz shared he quit drinking this past year and lost about 70 pounds; the room leaned into gratitude as a through-line. [42:51]
• A tangent on the pre-internet world (wall phones, Rand McNally maps, MapQuest) turned into the loosest, funniest stretch of the hour. [54:33]–[58:36]
• Super floated a "let's be friends" free soul-bound NFT idea; Sho closed with kudos for the consistency of the series, and Super teased a pup party in Discord the next day. [52:15], [1:01:05], [1:01:44]

Highlights

[12:01] "A past me would've been FOMOing." Super admitted the day's big mint dominated his mind share, but not out of envy — he realized he's genuinely detached from the chase-and-flip version of himself that used to "get peeled," and is just happy for friends who won. Sho seconded it: "I love seeing our friends win." [13:28]

[17:37] Skateboarding, faded not failed. Super used his own gradual drift away from skating — as work, injuries, and then crypto crowded it out — to reframe "dying" as something that can be healthy and organic. The persistence he learned there ("I tried hundreds of times… I didn't stop going back") became the mentality he now brings to founding the project. [37:12]

[22:31] Sho's old wound. Reading the featured trait as an unhealed scar, Sho recalled being backstabbed by a clinic 20 years ago while her husband battled addiction — people who sat at her dining table promising support, then kicked them out. The takeaway: they started fresh, built their own clinic, and turned the betrayal into a new and better version of themselves.

[27:49] BeeCuz: the arm that ended twice. BeeCuz recounted growing up on the baseball field, joining the Marine Corps after a car accident destroyed his collarbone in 2006, and that same injury eventually ending his Marine career a decade later. Labeled "broken," he found chosen family instead, and named this space as an extension of that same search for community. A quietly moving stretch.

[32:50] The silver lining is being here. Super answered that no matter what he's quit, broken, or been fired from, the constant is that he's still alive to experience it — a simple anchor he keeps coming back to.

[34:34] "There is no new me, only me." Sho read out a listener comment from Craig framing life as a book of chapters where nothing truly dies — which the room loved enough that Super half-wanted to rename the topic on the spot.

[40:13] Sufz3's testimony. Sufz3 hopped in from yard work to share that his faith is central to who he is, and that roughly 20 years ago "the person I was" died and was reborn — he stopped drinking and swearing and now pours that energy into his daily posts for the community. BeeCuz followed by revealing he too quit drinking this past year and lost about 70 pounds, sharing the same faith and gratitude. [42:51]

[54:33] Wall phones and Rand McNally. The generational tangent took off: Sho (relaying a DM from Mark) described the wall phone with the long curly cord dragged into a closet, and Super riffed on his mom pulling out paper maps for a 45-minute drive — "all right, Christopher Columbus" — photocopying the route down to size before MapQuest existed. [56:07]

[59:18] "You don't know until you know." Closing out, BeeCuz answered Super's earlier doubt about whether the space helps anyone: today's topic is literally what pulled Sufz3 up to speak for the first time. A clean landing that fed straight into Sho's closing gratitude. [1:01:05]

Who said what

• Super (@SHGFees)^* — host and project founder; framed the topic, shared the skateboarding-to-crypto arc, and tied persistence to running LT3.
• Sho (@AgogoKaren)^* — cohost; brought the backstabbed-clinic story, read listener comments, and carried the generational nostalgia and the closing gratitude.
• BeeCuz (@BeeCuzFuture)^* — speaker; the emotional center with the baseball/Marine Corps account, gratitude and sobriety, and the "you don't know until you know" close.
• Sufz3 (@Sufz3_)^* — speaker; shared his faith-driven rebirth and daily community posts, drawn up by the topic itself.

Worth a full listen

• [27:49]–[34:34] — BeeCuz's full story and Super's "silver lining is being here" response; the paraphrase can't carry the weight of it.
• [40:13]–[43:37] — Sufz3's testimony straight into BeeCuz's sobriety reveal, a genuine back-to-back moment between two speakers.
• [54:33]–[58:36] — The wall-phone and paper-map tangent, easily the funniest run of the hour and best heard in the speakers' own timing.
