Good information but please Rory quit talking so much and let the guests answer your questions without your 20min preamble.
Rory is one of those guys who has the enviable ability to make incredibly complex things understandable — at least at an entry level — with a few words. I always feel smarter after listening to this.
It would be nice if this were a business focused podcast. Instead we have to listen to a hysterical left-wing Canadian with a bad case of TDS. A missed opportunity wasted on the hosts personal ideology and hatred of President Trump…
Rory looks at oil, oil sands, and energy—starting in Canada and going beyond.

A data-driven deep dive into energy markets, geopolitics, and pricing dynamics driven by oil and gas fundamentals. Episodes frequently unpack price discovery, backwardation and contango, inventory signals, and the impact of global events—from Hormuz disruptions to sanctions policy—on curves, spreads, and risk. A distinctive angle is the integration of pragmatic trader viewpoints with geopolitical analysis, plus practical investment and trading takeaways for professionals navigating a volatile energy landscape. Noteworthy for its practical framing, strong guest roster, and clear focus on how macro forces translate into price action and market behavior.
