Episode 133 of the PetroNerds podcast is another PetroNerdy special and the first stop on the PetroNerds university tour. Trisha Curtis, CEO of PetroNerds and host of the PetroNerds podcast, is at the Colorado School of Mines in a fireside chat. She is joined by her host, Morgan Bazilian, Director of the Payne Institute at Colorado School of Mines.

In this one-hour conversation, Morgan covers a range of questions with Trisha, ranging from inflation and the state of the economy to oil prices and the health of the oil and gas industry. He asks questions and Trisha get into politics, Administrations, policies, and China.

There are a few areas that go unaddressed in this conversation. Trisha Curtis introduces this podcast with a short and fresh introduction on oil prices at $65 a barrel. She discusses Iran, Russia’s ambitions in Ukraine, and talks with China all driving up oil prices. Trisha Curtis is recording from Newcastle, Wyoming. This is another heavy hitter you are going to want to listen to and pass along to your colleagues and friends!
