Spain hit 100% renewables and then the lights went out. We’re unpacking what actually happened when the grid went sideways and why it rippled into Portugal and France. From the weird culprit (hello, atmospheric vibration?) to why renewables alone might not cut it, we’re talking inertia, batteries, nuclear, and what all this means for grids everywhere. We even throw in ERCOT, Canada’s energy politics, and how the U.S. grid compares to Europe’s. It’s part physics lesson, part real talk about the tradeoffs in building a future-proof energy system.

Tennessee is making big moves in tech, and the Colossus XAI facility is proof, housing the world's most powerful supercomputer in a mind-blowing 750,000-square-foot space (and growing). This beast runs on 300 megawatts and is set to scale past a million chips, making it a game-changer for AI and computing. But that’s just the start, we’re also talking about energy efficiency breakthroughs, why Tennessee’s business-friendly setup is a magnet for projects like this, and the wild speed of its construction (122 days!). Plus, a look at private equity shaking things up in the Permian, BP rethinking renewables, and somehow, the carnivore diet debate sneaks into the mix. If you like tech, energy, or just seeing how industries collide in unexpected ways, this one's got plenty to chew on.

Big things are happening in the oilfield—literally. We’re talking about a 42-mile, all-electric conveyor belt hauling frac sand across the Delaware Basin, cutting out thousands of truckloads and making operations safer, cleaner, and more efficient. Bud Brigham and his team just dropped $400 million on this beast, moving 13 million pounds of sand annually and changing the game for shale drilling. We’re breaking down why this could be the future of frac logistics, what it means for rigs and automation, and how it stacks up against traditional sand hauling. Plus, a look at the latest energy headlines—OPEC moves, US policy shifts, and what’s shaking up oil markets, from Chevron to ExxonMobil.

James Kostohyrz argues there’s a real chance that Israel and Iran are going to war. Like bombs and missiles. Real war. If so, what’s Iran’s first move? Shut down the Strait of Hormuz and immediately block 20% of the world’s oil production. Oh crap. What would that mean for oil prices? It’s a scary yet possible scenario we are facing. Horrifying with huge ramifications for oil prices. James argues it’s not priced into today’s crude prices.
