You're listening to the Oil and Gas This Week podcast with Mark LeCour and Jake Corley.

This is the show for busy oil pros who quickly want to keep their finger on the pulse of the industry.

Welcome back to another episode of oil and gas this week.

You're listening to episode 115.

What's going on, Mark?

Jake, you were not just talking on the mic.

It's been crazy.

We've been so busy.

But let me tell you what else is crazy, Jake.

You know, we talked about last couple episodes, and I talked a little bit about my views on climate change.

And I've had all kinds of people just reach out to me, and they're upset with me because they don't agree with my opinion.

In fact, somebody actually that had left us a five-star review went back and changed their review to, I think, three stars because of my opinion on climate change, which I just think is silly.

It's one of the great things about living in this country is you can have differences of opinion. And I actually, I like to surround myself of people that think differently me, right? It helps you think outside the box, look at other angles. I mean, you know, you and I both fought for our country so that these people could think differently than we do. So come on, people. And let me just clear up something. It's not that I'm a client denier. That's not true at all. I actually understand client science decently. I've done my research. I understand how things work at a very high level. I'm not a client scientist. But the thing is, I know the climate's changing. I know global warming is real.

The thing that I say is nobody's proven yet that man's activity has increased the rate of global

warming. That's all I'm saying. You know, we're either in the ice age, which is a period of

global cooling. And if you're not in the ice age, you're in a period of global warming by default.

So that's, that's all I'm saying. But for everybody out there disagrees me, I think it's awesome. I'd love to engage with dialogue with, you know, reach out to me and let's talk about it. But don't do things like change the show reviews. I mean, that just, you know, that just makes me laugh. I totally agree. All right, let's jump to our 2017 on the road sponsors. Huge shout out to Total Land.

It's the world's most advanced field land management system.

Essentially, it's the landman's virtual office.

And then Lee Hecht and Harrison, Global Experts.

Yep, you did what I did.

I get called this all time.
