The Next $435B Energy Empire Is Being Minted

In today’s dollars, John D. Rockefeller would be worth $435 billion. But “oil money” is old news, and what’s next might surprise investors in 2026: a $2.1 trillion opportunity in “clean” coal.

With a White House that favors domestic energy, the NASDAQ ticker FASF reserved, and the ground broken for their flagship coal reformation plant, Frontieras is positioned for potential valuation impact.

Whatever Happened To...

Whatever happened to Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom?

For millions of Americans, Sunday nights meant a folksy zoologist in a khaki shirt saying, "Welcome to Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom." Here’s one of the show's openings.

The show didn't just fill an hour before the workweek—it invented an entire genre, hauling anacondas and lions into living rooms decades before Animal Planet or Shark Week existed. So where did it go?

It never really left. Wild Kingdom debuted on NBC on January 6, 1963, hosted by Marlin Perkins—a University of Missouri zoology dropout. At its peak, the show drew an average of 34 million viewers, powered by Perkins' scholarly manner and the derring-do of his younger sidekick, Jim Fowler, who tended to do the actual snake-wrestling while Marlin narrated from a safe distance.

This fueled a running gag Johnny Carson loved during their many Tonight Show visits, which became a highlight on Carson’s show. Here’s a clip with Fowler, Carson, and a coyote from 1969.

But Perkins came by his caution honestly. Back in 1928, as a young reptile curator at the St. Louis Zoo, he was bitten on the finger by a Gaboon viper—one of Africa's deadliest snakes—with no antivenom on hand. He survived, becoming one of only a handful of people ever known to do so.

The show ran new episodes from 1963 to 1971, then continued in syndication. In 1985, Perkins stepped down as host to fight lymph cancer; he died at home in St. Louis in June 1986 at age 81.

The brand proved durable. Animal Planet revived it in 2002 with Alec Baldwin narrating, and a newer incarnation, Protecting the Wild, is co-hosted by Peter Gros and Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant. Classic Perkins-era episodes still air Sunday mornings on the nostalgia-oriented MeTV, serving many of the same viewers who grew up on the show.
