Don Simmons is the CEO of Hemisphere Energy (HME), a Canadian heavy oil producer.

DISCLOSURE: WE/MACRO OPS OWNS SHARES IN HME AT THE TIME OF THIS PODCAST RELEASE. DO YOU OWN WORK. NONE OF THIS IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. SMALL CAP ENERGY STOCKS ARE RISKY.

With that out of the way, let's get to the podcast.

Don dives deep into his background and how he founded HME. The company takes a simple, yet unique approach to building an enduring and capital-returning E&P.

You'll find Don's common sense refreshing and yet so uncommon in E&Ps.

Finally, a big thanks to our sponsors for making this episode happen.

Mitimco

This episode is brought to you by MIT Investment Management Company, also known as MITIMCo, the investment office of MIT. Each year, MITIMCo invests in a handful of new emerging managers who it believes can earn exceptional long-term returns in support of MIT's mission. To help the emerging manager community more broadly, they created ⁠⁠⁠⁠emergingmanagers.org⁠⁠⁠⁠, a website for emerging manager stockpickers.

I highly recommend the site for those looking to start a stock-picking fund or just learning about how others have done it. You'll find essays and interviews by successful emerging managers, service providers used by MIT's own managers, essays MITIMCo has written for emerging managers, and more!
