Coffee With Jim & James

Live @ Texas Gas Association for a Final Goodbye

Energy Worldnet — Mon, 08 Dec 2025 16:00:00 +0000

In a full-circle finale, Coffee with Jim and James wraps up its journey where it all began—Texas Gas Association (TGA). The episode is a heartfelt celebration of industry friendships, leadership transitions, and a few emotional mic drops.

Jim announces his recent move to GridHawk Holdings, reflecting on 25+ years in the industry and the relationships that shaped his journey. He emphasizes that while roles may change, the bonds in the utility sector remain strong. The episode features conversations with outgoing and incoming TGA chairs (Kyle Slaughter and Jeff Henderson), who share their vision for a growing, more inclusive association, including bringing associate members like Coleman Sterling (EWN) into leadership roles.

Coleman Sterling, Billy Kidd, Larry Alspaugh, Jeff Henderson, Kyle Slaughter, and other guests reflect on industry evolution, knowledge sharing, mentorship, and how much younger generations are changing the game—with more empathy, more tech, and a lot more humility.

The team gets nostalgic, sharing behind-the-scenes stories, unexpected highlights from traveling across North America, and what they’ve personally gained—from learning field operations firsthand to sparking conversations about mental health and sobriety.

Ashley Jesko, a behind-the-scenes powerhouse, is recognized for her pivotal role in expanding the show’s reach in its final year, injecting creativity and connecting with new voices.

In closing, Jim, James, and Ashley reflect on what the show gave them: visibility, humility, a broader platform to serve, and lasting friendships across the industry.

It’s not just a goodbye—it’s a thank you. And maybe, just maybe, a "we’ll be back

Live @ Miller Pipeline

Energy Worldnet — Tue, 11 Nov 2025 16:32:00 +0000

In this special on-the-road episode, the EWN team—Jim, James, and Ashley—take you behind the scenes of a memorable visit to Indianapolis with our longtime partners at Miller Pipeline. What started with a few laughs and a hotel booking mishap turned into a powerful deep-dive into core values in action: safety, quality, commitment, and reputation.

Over the course of the trip, we had the privilege of joining multiple job sites, speaking with Miller team members, and witnessing first-hand how their culture and values are deeply embedded in everything they do—from mentoring interns and practicing knowledge transfer, to executing complex urban gas infrastructure work with precision and pride.

Special thanks to Kevin Miller, Abby, Sage, Stephanie Stapert, Al, and many others who made us feel right at home. Shoutout to Citizens Energy Group, CenterPoint, and Versiv for joining the collaborative spirit on site and highlighting how cross-organizational teamwork powers this industry forward.

Whether we were discussing horizontal directional drilling or enjoying iconic shrimp cocktails at St. Elmo’s, this trip reminded us what excellence in the field really looks like. And as always, our goal is to carry those stories back to the wider industry—ensuring the knowledge, commitment, and pride in our work continues to echo far and wide.

Thank you to Miller Pipeline and the greater Artera group for opening your doors and giving us a front-row seat to the incredible work you're doing. This one’s for the books.

Created to protect PG&E’s most valuable asset—their employees—the HEAT program was designed to address the rise in threats faced by field workers, including robberies, stabbings, and gun violence while performing their duties in areas like Oakland. With firsthand stories from the front lines, the episode explores the complex dynamics of keeping utilities running in a city facing extraordinary challenges. PG&E shares how they’re tackling this crisis and their efforts to support and safeguard their workforce in the face of new and unpredictable dangers.
