A must-listen for those tracking the energy-tech frontier.Check out everything on Liberty Energy on their website: https://libertyenergy.com/Follow Ron on his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ron-gusek-3b27232/I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation, and as an investor in the energy sector, I look for how management works and the corporate culture. We covered a cool story about me running into several trucks of Liberty employees in Shreveport while checking into a hotel. They were great people, and the trucks were spotless; they were all employees that I would hire in a heartbeat. Michael Tanner and I have always said on our podcasts that, while evaluating oil and gas deals and companies, "Good Management gets Good Numbers." I loved the part of Liberty Energy's future that focused on the energy and electrification section of the business. That has a flat financial base compared to the cyclical nature of the oil and gas markets. This is precisely why I like the leadership, as they are playing the long, financially sound game.
