CNBC continues their new reality series, West Texas Investors Club with an all-new episode. During tonight's premiere of episode 7, self-made multimillionaires Rooster McConaughey and Butch Gilliam are about to have their Butch, Rooster, and the Sunglass Kids!

As we previously mentioned, during the eight-episode series, deep in the heart of Texas, the self-made multimillionaires Rooster McConaughey and Butch Gilliam have carved their fortunes from a harsh and unforgiving land. Now they've chosen to pass on their success by investing in promising entrepreneurs. But they're going to do it on their own turf and terms. Along with the duo's close friend and confidante Gil Prather, Rooster and Butch are inviting ambitious entrepreneurs from all across the country to come down to Midland and make their case.

From the official website's plot synopsis, Rooster and Butch find themselves meetinging two eyewear entrepreneurs from California. These two entrepreneurs are from the sunglass company known as "Blenders." Butch and Rooster are then pitched on their "cool brand," but the investors want to test the product at the coolest event in town, Gil's Goat Roping. Meanwhile, Butch finds inspiration from an ex-rocker, who wants to start his own smartphone repair business inspires Butch.

In an interview with Bainbridge Review, entrepreneurs Blake Jensen and Chase Fisher dish on how nervous they actually were on camera for the reality show, "We had no idea who the investors were, or how many there were, or what would happen. We definitely had a lot of apprehension. We almost pulled the plug the day before the show. It was a lot more fun than we anticipated."

Blenders has currently hired additional customer service staff to handle potential influx in traffic, but no one is certain what happens next after the episode airs. We wish them tons of luck with their product!

West Texas Investors Club continues Tuesdays a 10pm on CNBC.
