Andrew Carreon, founder of Emeth Value, discusses his thesis on Blackstone Minerals (BSM). Key points include how some of the company's undeveloped acreage could be a massive call option, how rising commodity prices impact BSM's value, and how BSM compares to other loose peers.

Side note: I had a puppy emergency for the last ten minutes of this podcast; you might see me glancing to the side a bit as my dog (Penny) tries to get my attention. I still think the conversation was great, but sorry for that!
