Oil is one of the most important commodities on the planet today. Without oil, and the energy that oil provides our modern economy, our current way of life would essentially come to a standstill..

It should come as no surprise then that the oil landscape both politically and financially is unequivocally interesting! 

For this reason, I truly enjoy any opportunity to discuss oil with someone as educated and informed as the guest for this podcast Ellen Wald PH.D. Ellen is a historian and scholar of the energy industry and western involvement in the Middle East. Ellen wrote the book Saudi, Inc.: The Arabian Kingdom's Pursuit of Profit and Power, and has a vast knowledge of the Middle East and oil markets in general.

As you can imagine, this was an amazing podcast and one that I hope you will enjoy!
