What do recent episodes of Friends, lifting 500 pounds in the gym, and barbecue have in common? Artificial Intelligence in the energy industry, believe it or not! 

In this special episode of A Crude Bit of Humor, Kendall Neukomm and Buffie Campbell are joined by Deren and Dagen Boyd, co-founders of FirmApp, and Lewis Box of Riverbend Energy Group and the National Association of Division Order Analysts (NADOA). They explore where AI is already creating value and where companies are still navigating adoption challenges. Plus: Common misconceptions, the importance of prompting, and practical advice for professionals who want to start using AI effectively today.  

As part of our NADOA 2026 Institute series, you'll also hear insights into this year's conference (where Dagen will be speaking more on AI), emerging technology trends, and how industry leaders are preparing for the next wave of innovation.
