This podcast got lost a long time ago. It was supposed to be a buildup to the exchange launch and then that got delayed by 3+ years. David is a good host, but the podcast has been meandering aimlessly for years. Like a lot of podcasts they ran out of ideas and started recycling guests.
I can’t believe how ignorant the guests on this carbon obsessed show are.
I listen just to hear their doom and gloom, along with their useless carbon credit schemes and “green hydrogen” garbage.
The fact most guests don’t even mention nuclear as a solution is a complete and total embarrassment to this podcast and its host.
If you are interested in energy, this. For me, is a must listen, Educational, informative and insightful. All delivered in a digestible manner .
It’s obvious David puts extraordinary effort in covering salient topics and finding guests that are authentic and truly care about being a positive force in this world - the insights they bring to bear are still mind-blowing every. single. time.
