Description

The ReVolting Podcast is a series about what it really takes to challenge convention and drive transformation across the energy sector.

Hosted by Úna Brosnan and John MacAskill, each episode dives into the ideas, tensions, and turning points shaping real change - from boardrooms to offshore platforms and everywhere in between.

With candid conversations and honest reflections from industry voices, ReVolting explores why innovation so often meets resistance, and how progress demands more than new technology - it calls for courage, collaboration, and a willingness to get a little uncomfortable.
