Houston Energy Poker Nights and Gatsby with Social Octane's Mark and Madison

Hey friends! I recently sat down with Marc and Madison from Social Octane to chat over some cold ones. These two are making big waves in oil and gas networking and events. I loved hearing how they got their start and their passion for bringing people together. We talked about some of my favorite events they host like our Houston Energy Poker Poker Nights, their legendary Gatsby Christmas party, and of course, the annual crawfish boil at the Cold Bore Tech House! A highlight was discussing their heart for giving back and commitment to spotlighting nonprofits in the community. I'm inspired by their innovative ideas to create spaces where nonprofits and industry come together to fundraise. We also touched on common misperceptions people have about working in oil and gas and being from Texas. The welcoming spirit and opportunity this industry provides came through loud and clear. I think you'll enjoy the laidback vibe and humor my guests brought to this chat. Take a listen and let me know your key takeaways in the comments! I appreciate you tuning in.
