- Nuanced, Objective, Empathetic
I came to this podcast from Taylor Sheridan show, Landman. The podcast is exponentially better than the TV show. Christian strikes a hard to achieve balance of objectivity and empathy while telling a well researched and compelling story. If the television program would have even tried to retain a fraction of the objectivity and empathy this podcast was produced with it would be one of the best shows running. Sheridan should let Wallace edit his scripts on future seasons.

I've never written a feedback. BUT:
This is honestly my favourite podcast. I listen to about 8 (sometimes 11) podcasts daily of various categories. I picked Boomtown before my first visit to Texas (I'm European).
Boomtown has by far the best narrative - I got particularly caught by the interviews with locals, putting their experiences and opinions into historical perspective and always circling back to the current days. I somehow got touched (sounds cheesy, I'm sorry).
I don't even need to ge... more

I’m in the industry. This podcast had potential, but it’s a distorted narrative tilted towards Leftist talking points. Watch Landman, but ignore this nonsense.

You talk about all the good part of being in west Texas but you’re interviewing people that hate what we do in Texas. If you don’t like our state for what we do, then leave the state. Go to a democrat state.
