Join host Danger Varoz and special guest Jesse George, the New Orleans policy director at the Alliance for Affordable Energy. Jesse has recently gained a lot of experience in his own state of Louisiana with Bernhard Capital Partners as the private equity firm has purchased multiple public utilities. Now BCP wants to purchase NM Gas Company and Jesse shines a light on the many problems that Louisiana faces with the firm from campaign contributions to deciding bodies, their lack of experience with running public utilities, their lack of transparency and their seeming disinterest in customer service.

Danger is joined by Mariel Nanasi, Executive Director of New Energy Economy to discuss two important bills during this 2025 NM State Legislative Session. First, HB 137, The Strategic Water Supply Act. Second, HB 169, The Public Expression Protection Act. Dive into the issues surrounding the convergence of water and energy policy in New Mexico!

Award winning author of Petroleum-238 and investigative science journalist, Justin Nobel, joins us to discuss his alarming findings on the oil and gas industry's deadly secret. "Produced Water" or fracking waste is highly radioactive and there is no science to back up the idea that it can be safely cleaned and reused. This is the same fracking waste that NMED is attempting to allow off the oil field for unspecified, unpermitted demonstration projects. Justin uncovers why this policy measure would be a disaster for New Mexico as it has been in other parts of the country.
