Back in September 2024, on the day my book What If We Get It Right? was published, I did one of the most absurd and delightful things I’ve ever done. I co-hosted an over-the-top goofy Climate Variety Show with actor Jason Sudeikis at the Brooklyn Museum. Sold out crowd. Strong high school talent show energy. And we took the “variety” part very seriously – magic, music, hula hoops, comedy, costumes, dance off, and of course many shoutouts to climate solutions. Looking back, I have trouble believing it actually happened. ‘Twas a total fever dream of a “What if we ...?” 🧐 question and 🤪 answer.
As we gear up for publication of the paperback edition on April 14th, I’m thinking back on the hardcover launch oh so fondly. So today’s episode is re-run of the very 1st episode of our podcast, an audio montage, if you will, of excerpts from that variety show.
Hop in this tiny time machine to revisit the silliness that transpired a year and a half ago, recorded live at the Brooklyn Museum. I present to you: ✨The Climate Variety Show.✨
