This episode’s guest is Dan Haley, the President and CEO of the Colorado Oil & Gas Association. Dan has been in this position since 2015 and it has put him on the frontlines of the policy discussion for oil & gas regulations in Colorado. 

I’d been paying attention to Dan’s content that he puts out on LinkedIn and knew that he would be a great spokesperson for the industry to have on the podcast. 

This episode is filled with discussions about narrative battles that oil & gas is facing and what the industry can do to fight back. We talk about how environmental regulations that constrain domestic production will result in non-domestic barrels being produced that ultimately lead to worse ESG outcomes. Lastly, we talk about doing business in Colorado and what energy producers and stakeholders can expect moving forward.

This episode’s guest is Jake Corley, one of the co-founders of the Digital Wildcatters. Jake is someone that reached out to connect very early when I started making content, in fact I think he was the very first person to follow me on Twitter. So Jake I just want to say thank you, you bought the stock when it was really low. 

We filmed this episode after Jake and I moderated the TXOGA Tech showcase last week. We sat fireside at the Four Seasons and got a rip in. 

This episode is filled with discussions about how The Digital Wildcatters are riding the new wave of energy content creation as well as trying to revamp how events are done in the oil & gas industry. We talk about the struggles of being the founder of a start-up and how difficult it is to scale a business. Lastly, we talk about Jake’s vision for the future of the Digital Wildcatters and how they didn’t start the company to take part, they came to take over.

This episode’s guest is Jason Les, the CEO of Riot Blockchain. Riot is one of the largest publicly traded Bitcoin mining companies in the US.  

Utilizing disadvantaged energy located in rural West Texas, Riot is currently building out their Whinstone facility, which when complete will be one of the largest Bitcoin mining sites in the world. When I look at the pictures of Riot’s operations, I can’t help but feel it is a testament to the strength that is being built into the Bitcoin network. 
 
This episode is filled with discussion about Riot’s Whinstone facility and the challenges involved with building out a brownfield bitcoin mining operation.

We talk about the advocacy efforts Riot is working on to help legislators at the national and local levels better understand Bitcoin. 

We discuss the technical side of scaled Bitcoin mining and the future of efficiency in mining hardware. Lastly, we talk about how proof-of-work is more than just consuming power, it’s the cumulative amount of human effort involved in building out the most resilient network that has ever been created.

This episode is a special one because we have multiple guests as well as a guest host, my Dad, Frank Gagliardi. This episode we sat down after the Oklahoma Geological Foundation board meeting and interviewed three of the foundation’s board members, Lanny Holman, Mark Lester, and Tom Cronin. 

This first half of the episode Frank sits in as guest host to discuss the Oklahoma Geological Foundation and its mission to help students in STEM programs from grade school all the way through graduate programs. We talk about the upcoming Legends Dinner and how the foundation honors individuals who have given back to their communities. 

Lastly, the back half of the interview I swap in as host and we discuss the current state of the industry, advice for young people going into a STEM career, and we get to hear some wisdom from some old school geologists who have a passion for our industry and giving back to the community. 

Hope you enjoy the show!

We talk about the Nacero story and the challenges and opportunities the company is faced with. Lastly, we discuss consumer preferences, how the energy transition needs to be tackled from the bottom up, versus a top down approach.
