In this episode of The Crude Cast, Travis McCaughey talks with Jace Graham about mineral rights, royalty interests, and how mineral deals work in the oil and gas industry.

Jace explains the difference between mineral rights, royalty interests, non-participating royalty interests, overriding royalties, and working interests in clear terms. He also discusses how title, ownership history, landwork, and relationships affect mineral transactions, along with why trust and transparency still matter in a relationship-driven business.

The conversation also covers how modern tools like AI, CRM systems, data workflows, and digital outreach are beginning to shape mineral acquisition and investor communication in oil and gas.

This episode is a useful listen for:

•  oil and gas professionals 
•  mineral owners 
•  royalty owners 
•  landmen 
•  energy investors 
•  anyone who wants to better understand the business side of oil and gas 

That description is better for discoverability because it repeats the right keywords naturally without sounding stuffed.

In this episode of The Crude Cast, Travis sits down with Russell Van Brocklen to break down dyslexia in a way that actually matters on the job—especially in high-risk, procedure-driven work like oil and gas. Russell explains the brain science behind dyslexia, why many dyslexic thinkers become hyper-specialists, and how that can translate into exceptional performance in technical roles.

They dig into hiring and training: why “What’s your specialty?” might be one of the best interview questions you can ask, how to train neurodiverse employees without “big picture first” confusion, and why starting ultra-specific can prevent misunderstandings that lead to incidents. Russell also lays out a practical method using short written steps and AI to confirm understanding—then having a supervisor approve it—so safety-critical tasks don’t get lost in translation.

If you lead people, write SOPs, train new hires, or care about safety culture, this conversation will change how you think about learning differences—and how to unlock talent the right way.

In this episode of The Crude Cast, Travis sits down with James Kell—carpenter turned entrepreneur—to explore how motivation, recognition, and psychology can reshape safety and productivity across industries. Drawing on his journey from construction to building Scratchie, James introduces listeners to Self-Determination Theory—the idea that autonomy, competence, and relatedness drive people to thrive. Together, they discuss why behavior-based safety often falls short, how small acts of recognition spark big changes, and how organizations like McDonald’s and oilfield operators alike are applying these insights to create safer, more connected workplaces. Whether you’re in oil and gas, construction, or any field where safety and culture matter, this episode offers a fresh take on building engaged, high-performing teams.

In this episode, we interview Daniel Moseley from Distran USA about a ground breaking gas leak detection camera that uses ultrasonic imaging to "see" sound. Daniel explains how the technology stacks up against conventional OGI and FID tools, what it means for regulatory compliance, and why it's becoming a must-have tool across all oil and gas sectors.

Episode Preview:

"If your leak is a mosquito, our camera is a pair of bat ears."

 "We found the same percentage of methane leaks as OGI—in a quarter of the time and with half the manpower."

Discover the transformative potential of constructive communication in the workplace. Rather than letting anger fuel conflicts, learn to channel it into meaningful conversations. Picture a scenario where you and a colleague clash over a decision. Instead of escalating emotions, use open-ended questions to gain insight into their perspective, ultimately fostering a dialogue that seeks resolution, not victory. In these moments, embrace your role as a leader and coach, empowering others to make choices and learn from both successes and failures. Practice patience and empathy when expectations aren't met, seeking solutions together. By fostering a supportive environment, you set the stage for a team continually striving for improvement. Use anger as a catalyst for self-reflection, and remember, sometimes, the priority is guiding others toward growth and equilibrium. Join the conversation on workplace communication, and subscribe for more valuable insights.
