Energy Markets Deep Dive: Faith, Finance, and the Future of Oil & Gas

Join hosts Richard Cunningham and Luke Roush as they take their first deep dive into the energy markets with two legends from the Permian Basin in Midland, Texas. Jordan Strebeck of Fortress Energy Partners and Chas Perry of PBEX offer insider perspectives on oil and gas investing, geopolitics, and how energy production enables human flourishing globally.

This Marks on the Market episode explores the technological revolution that transformed American energy independence, the capital discipline reshaping the industry, and why natural gas could be the key to both domestic prosperity and global development.

Key Topics:

• The Permian Basin's role as America's energy epicenter - producing half of US oil within 200 miles of Midland
• Horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technology that revolutionized unconventional oil recovery
• Capital discipline versus "drill baby drill" - why the industry learned to prioritize shareholder returns
• Geopolitical implications of US energy independence and LNG export capacity
• How abundant natural gas could enable cheaper electricity and AI infrastructure development
• Energy density and human flourishing - why hydrocarbons remain essential for economic advancement

Notable Quotes: "OPEC doesn't really care a whole lot about what we think. And I've learned also, like President Trump, neither he nor anyone in his administration, has called and ask me my opinion." - Jordan Strebeck

"You can't always rely on [renewable energy]. Natural gas, we've got a ton of it in the United States. All of us on this podcast will be dead and gone before we're out of fossil fuel." - Chas Perry

"There is no such thing as an economically advanced economy that does not require energy." - Jordan Strebeck
