The Crude Life Week In Review Episode 551 is currently airing across a 5-state radio network. Here are the industry experts, community leaders and special guests for The Crude Life Week In Review Episode 551:
ENERGY UPDATE: Tom Shepstone, Energy Security and Freedom, Stephen Heins, The Word Merchant and The Crude Life founder Jason Spiess discuss the Mount Rushmore of Energy Enemies or Energy Agitators.
SPECIAL FEATURE: Clint Kling, Shepherd VR, explains why Virtual Reality training is becoming more popular in industry.
INDUSTRY EXPERT: Energy Expert Robert Bryce gives the rundown on Juice The Docuseries.
The five-part docuseries, Juice: Power, Politics & The Grid, is now available for free on YouTube. Rather than make a feature-length film, Bryce said they decided to make the content as user-friendly as possible, so broke it into five episodes, each lasting about 20 minutes.
The series features 34 interviews that were shot in Texas, Japan, Vermont, Oklahoma, Colorado, California, Washington D.C., Illinois, Egypt, and England. The cast of characters includes many of the world’s top thought leaders on energy, including political scientist Roger Pielke Jr., Grid Brief editor Emmet Penney, civil rights leader Jennifer Hernandez, author Michael Shellenberger, Canadian nuclear activist Chris Keefer, author Meredith Angwin, former IEA director Nobuo Tanaka, World Nuclear Association director Sama Bilbao, Campaign for a Green Nuclear Deal founder Madi Hilly, and many others.
Bryce said he is especially proud of Episode 3, which features the Osage tribe’s battle with Enel over a wind project the company built by violating the tribe’s sovereignty.
I have been covering this issue for more than four years, so I was thrilled last month when a federal court judge in Tulsa ordered Enel to remove all 84 of the turbines it built in Osage County,” Bryce said. “It’s a landmark ruling and an enormous embarrassment for Big Wind and Enel, a company that has endlessly touted its ‘green’ credentials.”
MENTORING MOMENTS: Joe Sinnott, CEO, Witting Partners and the host of The Energy Detox Podcast talks about the NFL’s coaching mentorships and how it relates to the energy industry.
Sinnott shares a story about a mentor who told him to strive for mediocrity.
“This mentor’s advice was strive for mediocrity,” Sinnott said. “That was his advice, strive for mediocrity. Now he expanded upon that, but that was the start of the lesson.”
Sinnott elaborated on this explaining how he was 22 at the time so the context was a bit different, however the life lesson transcends time.
“The moment that somebody realizes you are mediocre, they kind of peg you as being mediocre,” Sinnott said. “Then they’re going to start looking elsewhere, or they’re at least not going to be listening to you with the same level of intent as they would have otherwise, or the same level of respect if they actually thought you had attempted to strive above mediocrity.”
SOCIAL MEDIA MATTERS: Steve Bakken asks if there is any credibility left in the Bakken leadership after their latest industry boondoggle and bad public relations.
