This week, we're speaking with IPPR researcher and friend of the show Laurie Laybourn-Langton (@Laurie_L_L) about his new book 'Planet on Fire: A Manifesto for the Age of Environmental Breakdown' (co-authored with Matthew Lawrence). We also talk about a deeply stupid SPAC that JD Vance is hawking, and some other stuff about the whole climate thing. Yes, the guy who runs the SPAC is named Jeff W. Ubben.

You can buy Laurie's book here (it debuts on April 20): https://www.versobooks.com/books/3702-planet-on-fire

Apparently none of y’all listen to Trillbillys or you’d know much more about App Harvest. Erm, do better y’all

The guest calling out Riley for getting worked up about conservative culture war bullshit every week was such a good own.

vince cable show sounds like I'll want to rip out my own ears, whens it out?

Oliver Cant

The fact that Vince Cable even has a book is proof any arsehole can write a book. The difference is that most would actually go back and edit their work and make sure it's readable.

Great call out on Exxon for the "massive capital investment" they are making in lower carbon investments. My favourite of these is Philip Morris International or "PMI and beyond tobacco".
