It’s a better-late-than-never show. We’ve got galavanting hosts (James is out this week), a Supreme Court steeped in overdue contemplation (John Yoo fills in for James to keep fill us in and even makes a prediction!) and our guest, Bjørn Lomborg is here to talk COP26. Lomborg—author of False Alarm: How Climate Change Panic Costs Us Trillions, Hurts the Poor, and Fails to Fix the Planet—takes us through all the great things Climate leaders have accomplished with these conferences, including promises that they will have accomplished great things in the coming decades… Aside from John’s thoughts on the speciousness of the arguments against Dobbs and the behind the scenes process that will take place between now and when get their decision, he also tells us about his time shooting hoops with Charles Barkley; And Rob updates us on his travels (to Hungary now) and his delighted impressions of conservatism abroad.
