The Truth About Fracking

Remember that time you watched the Gasland "documentary" on Netflix and became wholeheartedly convinced that fracking is evil and gas companies are trying to poison rural residents just to make a quick buck? Surprise, surprise: you've been lied to once again. In this special episode, Carter chats with Daniel T. Richards about hydraulic fracturing and his role in the counter-documentary, FrackNation.

Daniel T. Richards is a digital strategist and rhetorician with 10 years experience in social media, graphic design, and content marketing. He has helped clients raise hundreds of thousands of dollars through crowdfunding—including the film FrackNation which, at the time, was one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns in the platform’s history. In his spare time, Daniel is an advocate for capitalism, individual rights, and romantic art on Welcome to the Midside, a podcast he has cohosted for seven years. He’s also a beer and whiskey enthusiast, which helps him cope with being the father of a precocious one-year-old.
