“Life-changing. Alex is one of my favorite speakers–loved watching him destroy the senate committee.” –Ariana

“I’ve been in the oil & gas industry for 30+ years (I have a petroleum engineering background) and have been to many, many industry conferences and have never heard a talk like the one I heard from you last week at SMU. Great job….please keep up the good work.” –Charlie

“Alex, When I first heard about this event I was highly skeptical. I came into the event with the assumption that you represent the ideas of big industry and why the fracing industry as a whole can never do any wrong. I can say now that I was wonderfully surprised by how insightful and well-made your points were. You are extremely articulate and presented your points with grace and intelligence. I would absolutely recommend anyone interested in the ideas of fracing and the energy industry as whole to attend one of your talks. Your point on how low energy costs helped spur marvelous innovations for humanity was an exciting way to look at the environmental debate. The deep Q&A was very good at denouncing the stereotypes of pro-fracing individuals being anti-progress.” –Steve

“Thank you, Alex, for the time you invested speaking at my company. I’ve worked in the energy sector for over 5 years, but it wasn’t until I was presented with The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels, paired with your talks and newsletters, that I began to understand that I had been fed many lies over the years about the industry. The fact-based truth you presented allows me to discuss the energy sector more confidently and effectively.” –Shauna

“Your talk completely changed my perception of fossil fuels, and I was already on your side! The way you approach the issue is a game changer. You frame the issue in such a human way. You personalize it, show how it impacts people. I haven’t heard anyone talk about energy policy like this, unless it’s in terms of creating jobs.” –Josh

“Thank you Alex for being the voice of reason and for being the exceedingly eloquent and genuine speaker that you are. Your logic is very captivating and I hope it catches on.” –Sabine

“Your speech at the event was greatly appreciated. In fact, most people were in shock because we (as an industry) are not accustomed to having supporters outside of our industry. It’s a refreshing change and a powerful message.” –Carol

“I’ve seen Mr. Epstein deliver speeches on several occasions. They are exactly what you want from a couple of hours dedicated to the intellectual. They are thought provoking and at the same time easily accessible. They are well researched without being esoteric. It’s clear from the first sentence that he knows what he’s talking about, that he is passionate about it and that he wants, more than anything, to help you understand why it’s so important.” –Kyle
