Oil markets are under siege and Kirk and Mark aren't sugarcoating it. From the Iran supply shock draining global inventories to the fertilizer fallout quietly heading for your grocery bill this fall, no topic is off limits. They also break down why US producers aren't just drilling on command, the capital discipline story behind the rig count, and Continental Resources' Mercury Pecos Power project proving Harold Hamm still runs circles around everyone.

Chuck and Mark are back and wasting no time getting into it. Qatar's LNG infrastructure is heavily damaged, a Red Sea refinery just got hit, and oil markets are absorbing a shock that the IEA apparently never saw coming (surprise). The guys break down regime adjustment vs. regime change, what a prolonged Strait of Hormuz disruption could mean for a global recession, and why gas prices matter more politically than anyone wants to admit. Then somehow they land on Mean Joe Green, Chuck Norris, and Astros opening day.
