Everyone likes working from home but at least go into a closet or under the sheets so we don’t hear an echo-y room. Are we pros here or not?
Although this show has been sponsored by Chevron for some time, it has provided very good reporting based in fact. The interviews were not hard-hitting but the interviewer used to ask a follow up on answers that might not have been fact-based or clear. Now, for the past 6-8 months, the interviews are absolute softballs, no follow-up questions, and complete lack of fact-checking. I work in the utility-scale industry, representing independent power producers. I see the data. I know the history. Th... more
The show has lost all credibility since the second Trump administration. Once a fairly neutral source of information about the current events of the energy industry, the show has become a mouthpiece for big oil (no surprise as Chevron is the sponsor).
The worst episodes are when they interview members of the administration giving them a platform to spread misinformation (looking at you Sec Wright), or when they had API to talk about permitting reform and the host allowed the guest to weasel ou... more
Enjoy the subject of this podcast but the messaging is very pro-fossil fuels which is apparent by their sponsor chevron 👎
The spoiled milk in my fridge is more qualified to run the EPA than Zeldin.
I like the content of this podcast, but I don’t trust its content or editorial decision-making based on the long-lasting sponsorship by Chevron, so listen w a boulder of salt.

Concise, reported conversations explain how U.S. energy policy is shaped by elections, regulation, Congress, industry and emerging technologies. Episodes pair host Nirmal Mulaikal and other POLITICO energy journalists with reporters, public officials, company leaders, researchers and political specialists to examine current disputes, from electricity prices and grid reliability to data centers, clean energy, oil and gas, and permitting. The format is typically a focused interview or reporter-led discussion that connects policy details with their consequences for businesses, communities and energy consumers.
Its distinctive strength is the mix of political reporting and practical industry context: guests may explain a congressional negotiat... more
