Could Fusion Be Just Around the Corner with Chris Mowry
The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the day’s most interesting energy and environmental policy issues with top national experts. Jack invites Chris Mowry of Type One Energy to the Power Hour this week to continue our discussion on fusion energy. Chris explains in detail how fusion works and why it is such a promising energy source. From the fuel to the economics to the technology to the waste issue (or non issue to be exact), Jack and Chris cover the fusion horizon. Most importantly, though, Chris explains why the time is now for fusion and that it won’t be long before our homes and businesses are being powered by this exciting new source of energy.

Could Fusion Be the Next Big Energy Breakthrough with Jackie Siebens
The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the day’s most interesting energy and environmental policy issues with top national experts. This week Jack invites Jackie Siebens of Helion, one of the nation’s leading fusion energy companies, to the Power Hour for a fascinating conversation about this exciting technology. They discuss how the technology works, how close it is to deployment, why fusion could be the key to solving a lot of energy issues, and does it make economic sense. But most important, Jackie puts to bed the age-old question of whether fusion is just a few decades away. Not give away the plot, but she makes a compelling argument for fusion being much closer than we think.

Why Your Transportation Freedom Might be at Risk with Terri Hall
Published 11 May 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Basically, the same exact project was already paid for with gas tax money. So now why are we having to toll it? So basically it had to do with follow the money and finding out what happened to that money and why is it now being turned into a toll road when they already had the gas tax money to expand it as a freeway. So none of that sat well with me. I've always been a fiscal hawk, if you will. And, you know, basically, I mean, we think about it. If I'm now going to have to pay five bucks every time I had to go into San Antonio for groceries or for the doctor's office or airport, whatever, that was going to add up to a ton of money with our very big family.
