278: Mr Energy confronts P&C over their energy show

Along with special guest Mr. Energy, the boys drink and review The Glutenberg, a gluten-free IPA, then discuss energy policy.

In a previous episode, the boys made fun of California for requiring more electric cars in the very same week they asked people not to charge their electric cars because the grid couldn’t handle it.

Mr. Energy — an old friend who has covered energy issues for decades — wanted a chance to chime in on the topic.

While he shares some P&C principles, like the need for a market-based approach, an all-of-the-above approach to energy, and the need for a national energy policy, he disagrees with the boys on a few points, especially related to global warming.

The discussion is lively and interesting, and Mr. Energy brings some good news about the future of modular nukes!
