While I occasionally disagree with Tisha, I always enjoy her perspective on ESG and the energy future so this week, after a two year (or 14 day, depending on how you feel about the curve flattening), I welcome Tisha back to the podcast. Here is a recent post of hers. The Pendulum Train I’m working on my next book, so occasionally I’m going to share my thinking here and on the Energy Thinks podcast to give you a preview and get your thoughts. Ever since...

It's been roughly 3 months since I last spoke with Heidi on the podcast and a lot has happened. Elon Musk is buying Twitter (in theory), the cost of living and inflation consumers are seeing is through the roof and yours truly has been re-reading "Atlas Shrugged" and finding the comparisons eerie.  Want to know how a candidate keeps their energy up and spends their time?  This is the episode for you.

This week, I welcome on Brian Gitt, who's investment thesis is that nuclear and natural gas will be the biggest winners in the energy sector over the next 20 years. He draws on 20+ years of industry experience to expose false beliefs about renewable energy and the problems with the environmental, social, governance (ESG) narrative  Here's a deep dive example of how false beliefs about renewable energy are driving bad decisions and harming people and the environment.  You can follow...

This week, I'm joined by David Blackmon to talk about the state of Washington, the Defense production act, Keystone and how do we get out of this mess?   David Blackmon is an independent energy analyst/consultant based in Mansfield, TX. He is the Editor of Shale Magazine and co-host of In The Oil Patch Radio, a nationally-syndicated weekly show. David has enjoyed a 40-year career in the oil and gas industry, the last 23 years of which were spent in the public policy arena,...

This week, we visit Europe (virtually, anyway) to chat with Irina Slav, an energy writer for oilprice.com, a substack site at https://irinaslav.substack.com/ and we have an in depth chat on Europe, energy and the war in Ukraine, censorship and the green transition.  Her recent article on Boris Johnson playing intermediary for the United States in the Middle East is a must read.  I hope you enjoy.

Of late, rather than screaming into the great abyss that is the cavern between those that worry about climate change and those that don't, I have taken to challenging people on LinkedIn on the other side of the aisle to come on the podcast and discuss it with me.  Of the 30 or so invites I've offered, Colleen is the first to accept and for that I commend her. Here was her post. And here was my response: Colleen.   You want...

While the media has fallen in line with the White House and the State of the Union March 1st that unofficially ended COVID, we are still left with an unsettled feeling, careers ruined, and discussion and debate disallowed.  So this week, I invited Rachel Corbett and Ed Carriere, two doctors from Denver who are a part of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance to .... and you won't believe this.... have an uncensored chat. For Any medical provider who...

This week on the podcast, I welcome Richard Norris. I enjoy Richard's writing, so I invited him on the podcast to discuss the European energy crisis, what happens with the energy transition and how to we have honest and transparent conversations that go forward that address: "Has peak prosperity already happened?" I enjoyed the conversation and I hope you do too. About Dr Norris is a 30 year veteran of the energy industry specializing in Energy Security and Energy Economics. He runs Pandreco...

Mark Rossano is a good friend of mine.  We met on the set of Bloomberg television November 19, 2019 when we were there to talk with Alix Steel about the Saudi Aramco IPO.  Not surprisingly, we spent 2 hours after by the coffee machine talking about the world- oil, natural gas, geopolitics, trade, lithium batteries.  To be honest, I was in shock about the amount of stuff he knows... and this from a guy that likes to think I...

I have been trying to get Shad Frazier on the podcast for the last year. We’ve been “LinkedIn friends” for a while now, and I always find his takes thoughtful and insightful. So today, we have him! One of the posts we talk about is this one- which is Shad’s thoughtful response to a study that was released by Mark Jacobson out of Stanford University. As I discussed with Robert Bryce last week, and do again with Shad this week,...
