## Resource

Isaac Orr, co-author of the Energy Bad Boys Substack and co-founder and Vice President of Research at Always On Energy Research, joins Josh to discuss how new AI data centers—combined with other policy-driven initiatives like electric vehicles—will place major stress on the nation's power grid and energy resources. They explore the steps being taken by the Trump administration, federal and state legislators, and tech companies themselves to meet these energy demands. They also examine the serious risks if those needs aren't adequately addressed, including potential blackouts and significantly higher energy costs.
