Episode 50 of "In The Oil Patch"

This week on "In The Oil Patch": host Kym Bolado and her cohost Alvin Bailey have Alex Epstein, the author of The Moral Case For Fossil Fuels, in the studio! Alex, much like our hosts, started his educational journey outside of the oil & gas industry. He has catapulted his book to one of the highest peaks you can reach - the New York Times Bestsellers list. Having an outsider's view of the oil & gas industry allowed Alex to draw his own conclusions in favor of the industry at a time when a lot of environmentalist groups are attempting to shut it down. A pioneer and a very bold young man, Alex's passion for spreading his education and findings is unaffected in the face of adversity. In fact, he seems to enjoy it when naysayers challenge his views.
