  • Uneducated Guesses 3: Revolutions (According to Plan… Probably) | Ep 41

    Sponsored by Magney-Grande – Your ESP Longevity Experts In this episode of Uneducated Guesses, Kaden talks with Matt Freeman, a reservoir simulation engineer whose job is basically building giant computer models of what’s happening miles underground. By combining geology, physics, and a lot of computational modeling, Matt helps companies simulate oil and gas reservoirs so…

  • Uneducated Guesses 2 Electric Boogaloonium | Ep 40

    Sponsored by Magney-Grande – Your ESP Longevity Experts Cause we’re living in a material world… and I am a material girl—I mean, boy.I mean… I interviewed a materials engineer. In this episode of Uneducated Guesses, Kaden interviews a materials engineer in an attempt to figure out what “materials engineering” even means in the energy industry—only…

  • How the Grid Stole Christmas (And Then Gave It Back) | Ep 39

    Sponsored by Magney-Grande – Your ESP Longevity Experts This very late Christmas special follows Kaden as he tries to prepare for the holidays by doing what no one asked for: turning Christmas into an energy problem. From cold weather straining power grids in Whouston, to neighborhoods glowing like satellites, to the very real industrial and…

  • What Makes Energy Clean? | Ep 38

    This is the final episode of the Benergy series, and Kaden is completely unhinged. In this raw recording from Benergy Module 4, Lesson 4, the conversation turns to clean energy—and everything Kaden thought he understood finally collapses under the weight of reality. What sounds simple on the surface reveals itself as a brutal intersection of…

  • What Makes Energy Reliable? | Ep 37

    In this episode, Kaden shares the raw recording from Benergy Module 3, Lesson 3, a deep dive into the chaos and complexity behind keeping the energy system reliable. And yes—he’s mad about it. As the course reveals layer after layer of moving parts, failure points, and high-stakes decision-making, Kaden’s patience wears dangerously thin. This is…

  • What Makes Energy Affordble? | Ep 36

    In this episode, Kaden dives into Benergy Module 2, Lesson 5, sharing a direct recording from Blue Energy Nation’s foundational energy course. This lesson focuses on affordability—what drives the cost of energy, the trade-offs behind pricing, and why the system is far more complex than a simple “cheap vs expensive” debate. Kaden adds his own…

  • Understanding the Energy Value Chain | Ep 35

    In this special episode, Kaden shares a raw, uncut recording from Benergy, the foundational energy course created by Blue Energy Nation. Instead of walking through all the modules step-by-step, listeners get a direct look into one of the sessions—an overview of the energy value chain and how the entire industry fits together. While this episode…

  • Uneducated Guesses Episode 1 | Ep 34

    In this debut episode of Uneducated Guesses, Kaden launches a new series designed to spark curiosity in STEM-minded students who love math and science but have no idea where they want to take those skills. Kaden interviews his first-ever non-parent fan, Logan Nate—a junior chemical engineering student at Oklahoma State University—to explore what studying chemical…

  • From Oil to Oilithium: Because Real Science Is Too Boring | Ep 33

    Captain’s Log – Stardate 7681.42 U.S.S. Nikola – NCC-4242 Mission Report: “From Oil to Oilithium: Because Real Science Is Too Boring” This week’s mission took an unexpected turn. While en route to conduct a routine survey of speculative energy phenomena in Sector 9, the crew of the Nikola encountered an anomalous signal—one not logged in any official…

  • Kaden Unscripted and Afraid | Ep 32

    In Kaden Unscripted and Afraid, apparently I’m ditching the script—because someone stole it—and answering the top 10 energy questions teens and young people are actually asking. No notes, no prep, no safety rails. Just me, my spiraling anxiety, and whatever half-baked, overly-dramatic, possibly-incorrect answers explode out of my face. So buckle up. Or don’t. I’m…
