In a rugged corner of West Texas, billionaire wildcatters and roughnecks are fueling an oil boom so big it’s reshaping our climate, our economy, and our geopolitics. This modern-day gold rush has sent both big oil companies and scrappy start-ups scrambling to secure a piece of the action. Texas Monthly’s Christian Wallace follows characters along every rung of the oil field ladder, from the executive cutting billion-dollar deals to the itinerant pipeline worker risking life and limb, and from the traveling exotic dancer following the trail of money to those who worry that our planet is on a path to destruction. Meet the people cashing in and those just trying to get by as the world around them is turned upside down. "A beautiful ride filled with levity, even as it delivers troubling forecasts for the future" - The Atlantic 2021 Webby Award Honoree, Podcast Documentary

Raw look at the oil industry
10월 4일
This is one of the best if not the best podcast I have ever listened to. I have listened to it at least 3 times and it never gets old. I love the original song and all the other music in the podcast. I love the interviews. And I love how hometown it feels, it’s great!
Appreciate

I have a new found appreciation and admiration for the people and life of West Texas. As a born and bred Texan, Texas is so big, complex and multifaceted, there are areas and places that I hadn't heard about seen or explored. This podcast took me to some of those places. The people and the stories were amazing. The storytelling was amazing!! I binged the entire show and have told some of my non-native Texas Texans about it but can see that it doesn’t resonate the same way that it does with me. I don’t care though. I’m telling everyone about this show. Well done Christian Wallace and Texas Monthly!!
Oil / Landmen

This was an excellent review / history of the development of the Permian Basin. The interviews and real time family conversations were priceless. Having a family background with Texas Oil and Landmen I especially appreciate the background that was presented.

I spent part of my youth living in Lubbock. This podcast brought me back to those days and the true beauty of West Texas. It’s an incredible collection of stories and people that have shaped the region. I long for our country to go back to realizing that simple things matter. Love for the land, your family, your heritage…and above all people, “neighboring” as they call it in the Permian basin. I would love to hear an update in 2024 of the people and places discussed in the first season. So much has changed in TX since 2021 that it would be fascinating to hear how things are now. Once you start this podcast, you’ll want to finish all the episodes so prepare for a binge!
