  • #63: Bizzaro World

    This episode’s guest is David Ramsden-Wood, the Host of the Hot Take of the Day podcast. 

    DRW is a guy that I’ve wanted to have on the podcast for a while now and is someone that is outspoken in the energy content space, and he’s also not afraid to speak his mind about pretty much any controversial topic there is. 

    I’ve often posted about how there are few people left in this world that have principles, and by principals I mean beliefs that you are willing to stand up for and be vocal publicly about, even if it has the chance to lose you money or hurt your livelihood. 

    I think that David has gotten to a point in his career where he feels like he is un-cancellable, and I think that’s a good thing because whether you agree with him or not, I think we need more people in this world that are willing to speak up for what they believe is right. 

    This episode is filled with discussions about the hypocrisy that is going on in the mainstream energy narrative that we are all fed from the media. As to be expected we talk about nearly every controversial hot topic in the news today and get DRW’s hot take on each issue.

    The reoccurring reference I keep mentioning during our discussion is Bizzaro World, a fictional planet in the DC comics universe that superman visits where everything is backwards. Where up is down, and down is up, and all that you see is the opposite of what it should be. And I can’t shake the feeling, we are living in that world today.

    Hope you enjoy the show!

  • #62: TE Spaces - Mineral Royalties & Bitcoin Mining

    This episode is another live recording of a Twitter spaces conversation about mineral royalties and bitcoin mining. This is a topic that always seems to have a lot of interest and also seems to have a fairly polarizing effect on people. 

    We start the conversation with a Twitter user that asked to come on the podcast and is viewing the topic from a landman/mineral owner perspective. The conversation then evolves and Justin Ballard from JAI Energy joins the stage to give his perspective as someone who has a land, legal, and bitcoin mining background. 

    I enjoyed the lively discussion on this one! Hope you enjoy the show.

  • #57: Hotdogoil

    This episode’s guest is Jon Ptashnik , founder and managing member of Hound Resources. Jon is also. been making oil and gas operator content and posting it to Twitter under his account name HotDogOil. 

    Jon’s content is some of my favorite content to consume. I love watching videos out on the lease seeing his tanks fill up with oil or watching him start up his gas treating plants. He is a great follow and I’ll leave his Twitter handle in the episode description. 

    This episode is filled with discussions about what it’s like starting your own oil and gas production business. We talk about how Hound Resources got its start and go into some of the details around the operations of the business and discuss Jon’s vision for the future of his company. 

    Hope you enjoy the show!

  • #56: TE Insights 10/1/21 Twitter Spaces Rip

    We went live for this week's episode of Talk Energy Insights. This week we mixed it up and did a Twitter spaces at the same time as the live stream and I think we are going to continue this format into the future because we had over 70 live listeners tune in.
