HOUR ONE PLAY HARD:  Jason Spiess and Sterling discuss the MegaMillions and PowerBall Jackpots and how they would spend the money. Jason cites a list of lottery facts and stories from tax rates to illegals ticket purchases to preying on the poor. Also whether you would rather win the “Bezos” amount or the “Musk” amount.

The Play Hard segment also runs down the list of faces on money. Yesterday, Sterling and Jason were stumped on who was currently on which bill and coin, stemming off Harriet Tubman’s projection to be the new $20 bill.

Man vs. Animal races on Fox, how to quit a job and pull tab inside jobs are just a few side bar conversations.

Oil-and-Gas Industry Faces a Slow Recovery From Pandemic Lows

Oil and gas prices are rebounding from their pandemic lows, but the road ahead for the industry remains challenging amid new competitive threats and demands from investors.

Global spending on oil and gas production is poised to remain below pre-pandemic levels through at least 2025, according to consulting firm Wood Mackenzie, as companies face pressure to improve returns and reduce their greenhouse-gas emissions. Meanwhile, investment in renewables and other clean energy technologies is taking off, threatening to eat into the market for oil and gas long-term.

Biden Ban on Public Lands To Cost Economy $670 Billion Over 20 years

A ban on oil and natural gas development on public lands by President-elect Joe Biden would severely harm the economies of eight western states, according to a Wyoming Energy Authority study conducted by University of Wyoming Professor Tim Considine. Over the next four years, the human cost of fulfilling Biden’s campaign pledge would be an average of 72,818 fewer jobs annually. Lost wages would total $19.6 billion, economic activity would decline $43.8 billion, and tax revenues would drop $10.8 billion by the end of Biden’s first term in Alaska, California, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. By 2040, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would decline by $670.5 billion and average annual job losses would exceed 351,000 across the West.

As a global community, we’re known for a long time now that it’s imperative for the worldwide economy to decarbonize rapidly and in earnest if we have any chance of avoiding catastrophic climate change. But as clear as this message has been and as loud as the pleading from the scientific community and elite international consortiums like The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has gotten in recent years, global leaders and the private sector have been excruciatingly slow to lead the charge toward a more climate-friendly world. It turns out that maybe all we needed was a global apocalypse to finally catalyze the global clean energy transition. The novel coronavirus dealt such a sweeping interruption to the economic status quo and the monumental momentum of business as usual that, for the first time since the industrial revolution, the world was able to take a breather and make a real attempt to realign our industrial and economic trajectory.

Huntsman spiders eat tree frogs after luring them into leaf traps

Huntsman spiders in Madagascar eat tiny frogs, and scientists suspect that the spiders catch their prey by weaving “traps” made of leaves, to lure the frogs inside with a promise of protection from the sun.

In 2017, researchers spotted a spider in the Damastes genus clutching a Heterixalus andrakata tree frog — the second time that Madagascar spiders have been seen eating frogs. The spider was enjoying its meal while crouching inside a pocket crafted from two leaves that were still attached to a tree; the leaves’ edges were sealed together with spider silk, leaving a small opening.

Just-released data from the Texas Oil & Gas Association shows the Texas oil and natural gas industry paid $13.9 billion in state and local taxes and state royalties in fiscal year 2020, funds that directly support Texas schools, teachers, roads, infrastructure and essential services, a news release said.

An environmental group claims 70% of Colorado’s greenhouse gas emissions come from oil and gas. But that’s in dispute.

In what is becoming a running skirmish between

environmental groups and the Polis administration over how to curb the

state’s greenhouse gas emissions, a new analysis calculates that 70% of

all the gases come from oil and gas operations and calls for the

shutdown of the sector by 2030.

The figures used in the analysis done by 350 Colorado are being disputed by both state air quality regulators and the oil and gas industry.

HOUR ONE PLAY HARD:  Jason Spiess, Sterling  talk more how to create a shell company with the sole intention of making a 6-7 figure salary, not doing and work and buying a private island. Several strategies are discussed.

They also talk about Urban Legends and how they play into shaping our lives.

In HOUR TWO we WORK HARD with our Newsmaker Interview: Mike Marcil, Entrepreneur

Mike Marcil, Orange Property Management, joins The

Crude Life for some candid COVID conversations. Major themes throughout

the entire interview is the lack of media oversight, minimal government

transparency and diminished power of the people.

Marcil breaks down North Dakota’s federal COVID money, including the federal minimum monetary requirements.

The concept of direct payments to citizens is discussed rather than

giving the stimulus money directly to companies, corporations and

government agencies.

The bigger picture of how the stimulus money was directed through

banks (and the fact the ND has a state-owned bank) which allowed the

bank’s equity value to increase in many cases.

Marcil also shares his views on the Legacy Fund and how oil and gas taxes are tied to the state’s budget.
