Tim’s take

He was briefly enthusiastic about El Salvador adopting Bitcoin, calling it "pretty cool" 1:03. Since then it mostly comes up as the destination for Trump-era deportations, where he worries less about the deportees than about the precedent of sending people to a mega-prison without due process 11:40 6:53. He even toys with doing a stand-up show inside that prison, which is about as far as his interest in the place otherwise goes 58:47.
