The GT Power Hour: Episode 11 (New Jersey Brand Recognition)

The GT Power Hour: Episode 11 (New Jersey Brand Recognition)

In which we ask Stefanie Brand, the the Director for the New Jersey Division of Rate Counsel, to not only defend her adopted state but also hold it accountable, which – as the state’s consumer advocate, she of course does with aplomb. FRR, MOPR, ZECs… they’re all here – as is the Taylor Ham/Pork Roll controversy, why everyone dumps on NJ, whether Central Jersey exists, love for New York, Pennsylvania, Jacob DeGrom and Michelle Obama, living as a Mets fan, the Jersey Shore Sound and feeling like an underdog, Eagles vs. Giants, Phillies vs. Mets (and why that’s even the question)… all-Jersey all the time on this episode. Check it while you’re chilling down the shore.

The GT Power Hour: Episode 10 (Primetime Glick! FERC-Style)

In which we spend quality time with the lone Democrat at FERC, Commissioner Richard Glick, who delves deep into his relationship with the three Republicans on the Commission, how he approaches the fraught dynamics of maintaining personal relationships with coworkers with whom he’s ideologically opposed, his thoughts on minimum offer-price rules (MOPRs), his preference for a national carbon price, why the social cost of carbon should be included in judging the value of proposed pipeline projects, why sports fanaticism is the workplace is a good thing and, finally, the many contributions of the late, great George Carlin.
