It's just wild how it does seem like it is alive.

So what made you get interested in geology in the first place?

It's also fascinating the amount of minerals and natural gases you can extract from the earth.

How do we come up with that?

How did geologists come up with the hypothesis that like, this is where we can go drill for oil?

They'll drag it like under the water.

Oh, whoa.

So it goes into the rock, into the, into the surface, like, like underneath the ocean floor.

Horizontal drilling?

I'm sure it's always a risk, like, when you're drilling.

I mean, I don't know shit about the oil industry, but I watched a TV show about it.

I imagine that there's a huge risk, like, when you're, you know, taking all that equipment and risking all that money to, like, go, like, set up a drilling.

Because, I mean, I've heard stories of, like, the wells that they have in Venezuela, and they take years to drill them.

So...

I can't imagine.

Do you have any former friends or acquaintances that you went to school with who got hired by big oil companies?

How many other geophysicists do you speak with or do you keep in touch with?

Compare notes or anything or talk about.

Did you have a traditional job in geology before the YouTube stuff?

San Francisco?
