"It for a ride. Please play responsibly. This is WTO news. It's ten 15 on WTO P tanks for being with us. I'm Dan Ronan. Good morning, everyone. Two more candidates jumped into the Republican presidential primary hunt this past week. Florida's governor Ron DeSantis and South Carolina senator Tim Scott, joining with us to discuss the race, Ken Walsh, she is a familiar voice to WTO theories with U.S. news and World Report. Good morning, Ken Donald Trump affairs to be far ahead, but desantis had a tough rollout and Scott and the others appear fire behind, so where's the race right now? Well, I think you summarized it well. Trump is far ahead in the Republican primary, but would have difficulty in a general election against Joe Biden who is certainly the overwhelming FrontRunner on the democratic side. But I think what we've seen now are some important developments in the past week. One is that out of the starting 8, Ron DeSantis showed that he does have some substantial weaknesses. He has not run a national campaign for the presidency before. He's relatively young, which he sought to be a positive thing since Trump and Biden are the candidates who are the oldest, far the oldest in the race. But desantis inexperience is showing with that technical glitch series that he had when he announced his candidacy on Twitter. But I think that you have to look, I think in the subtext of this as well. There is a lot of people in the country who are wanting alternative to Trump in the Republican Party. And so I wouldn't go too far in looking at this first week of the desantis campaign as a terrible disaster because he did raise a lot of money in the initial hours after his announcement, even though it was botched, something like $8 million. He's going to have a big war chest and I think the race is really just starting. So I think we in the media need to be more careful than we've seen in the past week in jumping to conclusions about how this is going to turn out. Ken got about 40 seconds left our Scott desantis Nikki Haley all looking to try to catch lightning in a bottle here. That's exactly right. Lightning in a bottle is a good way to describe it. They're looking to catch fire in this race. In our presidential primary history are both parties. There's always the person we're not always, but many times the person we don't really think about initially emerges as a serious contender down the line. I think of gene McCarthy, who ran against Lyndon Johnson, way back in the 60s. You had Pat Buchanan who gave George Bush problems when he was running for a reelection. And the list goes on. So I think we have to look at this notion of people are looking for some alternatives. If it's Biden and Trump, that's really the race that a lot of people do not want according to the polls. And so there is an opening here for people from who are not the expected frontrunners. And I think that's going to remain the framework of this race to see how well they do. And catching lightning in a bottle is difficult, but it is possible. Ken Walsh, with U.S. news and World Report. A quick look at the top stories on WTO president Joe Biden in the House speaker Kevin McCarthy say they have an agreement in principle to raise the nation's debt ceiling. The Republican dominated House of Representatives in Texas last night voted to impeach the Republican attorney general of the state of Texas Ken Paxton, keep it here on WTO full details on these stories in the minutes ahead.

You're free in home estimate It's for 11. A federal judge has unsealed a new list of materials seized from former president Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate former attorney general Bill Barr telling Fox News today. There's no legitimate reason for classified documents to be at Trump's Florida home. He rejects arguments by Trump loyalists that he may have used his power to declassify the documents. That would be such an abuse. And show such recklessness that it's almost worse than taking the document. Yeah, me, shall Sindh or moderator of Washington week is joining us live to discuss the latest developments on top of everything else, the long list this week, yamiche, here comes Bill Barr. What do you make of his remarks? Well, this is really stunning because we know that Bill Barr is someone who was very, very loyal to former president Trump up until he tried to steal, frankly, and lied about the 2020 election. So this is Bill Barr really saying, this is yet another way where former president Trump is not being reasonable. Remember that in those videos that we can help from Martin in the well, he could pull him to multiple contributes. Yamiche, I am so sorry to cut you off. You are telling us important things and we just can't hear it due to the quality of the line. We're going to try to reconnect and get back to you either a little later this hour or whenever we can. That is yamiche alcindor of Washington week and that is on tonight at 8 on TV 26. Now it was back in April that Virginia's attorney general convened a special grand jury to look into how loudon county schools handled two sexual assaults by the same student. The school board has asked Virginia's Supreme Court to stop the grand jury, but the high court says the investigation will go on. In its lawsuit, the loudoun county school board has argued the special grand jury was unconstitutional, but Virginia Supreme Court has rejected that argument in its ruling. It says loudon's fear and the potential of investigative overreach by the grand jury doesn't constitute any harm much less irreparable harm to court says the school board will continue to oversee the school system exactly as it has done in the past.

"President. Who knew that crime would rise and it's risen every year in direct proportion to the budget of the FBI? They don't seem to ever get. So. Hoover, the closest he came to losing his job is when gene McCarthy said he would fire him, which was a capricious grab for power in this country, trying to whoo the criminal vote. Has there any groups we have an offended? And you know, there's a lot of ways to look at that, but essentially it's a snotty phrase from a theater critic who looks down his nose at the art form. And so that's, you know, I mean, I think you're right that you also don't have music criticism. There's an interesting parallel between pop music critic, which did not all have this long history of criticism, but then a few figures emerged who were very respected and had very high standards and were like loomed large and some people hated on some people did it. And it's bizarre that that didn't exist in the for comedy. Yeah. Did you, you know, you know, dead frog can analyze comedy, your ruined comedy by analyzing comedians pushing back if they're just joked while Vlad, did you, did you get pushback at the beginning? I mean, I know you did. I mean, how could you not? I still guess. I got a ton of pushback. Well, many different kinds of one thing I remember looking back is when they announced that I was, I was doing this. Or maybe after my first column, these two comedians who ran a website, you can still find this art of these articles. Magazine. Do you know that? No, no. Oh, so they ran a piece about me being like, comedians are like, you know, excited that they're getting some attention. They're wrong. This is bad news. And you know, it's interesting. If you just look back at their argument and they were saying like, you know, Jason Zimmerman is bad for the company because we had the system before where the audience would tell you whether something's good or bad and now people are going to have too much power and people are going to give bad reviews for people's career. It's going to be bad for comedians. And at the time, obviously this was I disagreed with it and still do. And it's annoying. But in retrospect, it is a, it's a legitimate, it's something that I think critics have to engage with. They have to, I think now more than ever. This is not true of just comedy of all critics when the media is so democratized. You have to kind of justify your existence. And you have to ask your, you have to sort of. You know, ask yourself the question, what purpose am I serving here? What am I giving? And the first response, of course, right, is that this whole critique from checking magazine was premising the idea of what is good or bad for comedians, right? Now, my central concern is what's good or bad for my readers. I happen to believe that having a healthy critical sphere is incredibly good for comedians and the art form of comedy. But that was one early that was like a welcome to comedy thing. And, you know, they were, yeah, there was other definite blow. And also like legit criticism, which is part of it. You know, I think one, I always I've always thought this, but one of the one of our jobs is to be like the clown of the dunking booth. Our job isn't to not only is our job, should we be able to take criticism, but part of our purpose is to put something out and you've done this and you know, you take a strong position on something and people can define their own ideas in opposition to it. That's tremendously valuable. That's tremendously valuable. So anyways, that comes with the territory. Yeah, I mean, there's a few things. But I will say, at least to this question, at least I've noticed as, you know, ten years long enough time that new comedians started after we have been writing about comedy, or have we been talking about comedy. And to those comedians, it's cool. It's great. They appreciate it. I mean, like, since the pandemic, I've spoken to more young comedians, like people who've been doing it less than 6 years, or maybe 5 years since I started the podcast. And they're like, I love the pockets. It's really useful. You're like, oh, we forget that there was a time where there's essentially nothing, there's no way to know how to do comedy. There's nothing to do. Anything about it except for other comedians and the opinions and I can't remember set it, but like if you're getting advice for comedians, all they're doing is trying to tell you how to be more like them. They're not actually going to be good for us that's useful. And have you noticed that also that generally there's still some pushback obviously I get it all the time, but there is now a new generation of comedians who are appreciative who see it as a benchmark. It is a goal. They want they dream of reviews or whatever to be considered by you. No question. No question. I mean, I think that's I think most the truth is most comedians are glad to get coverage. And they're savvy. Look, a lot of convenient, a lot of artists period don't like the press or criticism. But in my experience, also, you know, one thing I did find different than theater in theater, there's a kind of ethic of you don't respond to critics. Sometimes I've definitely had experiences where I have had that. But rare. Comedy, because there isn't a history of this stuff. And again, I'm not complaining. I'm just stating a fact. I've got a tremendous amount of feedback from comedians and usually I'm like, you know, I find that is really interesting conversations. And people are, you know, one thing, you know, comedians are maybe more so than theater artists, two feedback. Because they're paying attention to the audience, right? So I also think that as you suggest, one of the interesting things about the last ten years is I've seen comedians at the beginning of the career when they were unknowns or nobody. And I've seen them some of them go on to be like the most famous people in the culture. And so it's one thing to start as somebody a critic writing about who you never heard of. But you know, at this point now, first of all, I've written about a lot of people early and then they get bigger and then. That changes your relationship to this whole scene as well. I find that one of the most interesting things about doing this for a while is that you see the arcs of different careers and which ones go up and which ones go down and why people make it and why people don't and that to me is sort of endlessly fascinating. And I think I don't know what your experience was. But when I started, I had all these, I wanted to learn a lot fast. So I had a bunch of story ideas that didn't really matter about who the people were, but I just like, I want it to be embedded in a writer's room at the beginning of a show. Which I did with inside Amy Schumer, which was tremendously valuable to watch. In retrospect, also, it was a fascinating cross section of people, Jesse Klein, Gabe leibman, Kurt metzger, Amy Schumer, Dan Powell, who's responsible for a lot of your favorite shows up there. All in this room, like at a daily out sketches, that was a really great learning experience. I wanted to follow evolution of a joke where I follow one comic do tell a joke for the first time for a while. I did that with my Kaplan, which learned a lot. I did a piece on a Booker there was another thing I wanted. At the beginning of my stint, I had a lot more of that stuff, and now I think I do it a little bit less. I almost think I should do maybe because of course the world changes. There's different things. There's different processes. But well, I mean at minimum at first you were literally teaching, especially in New York Times, audience of like, what is comedy? How does it work? Like the basics of, there was a time. It is actually slowed down, but there would be a while where there'd be big profiles of stand up comedians, and they would all be like, can you believe that they work every night on their jokes? And this would be like part of a fawning portrait of how hard they work, which would be over and over again. They are working in their changing the words as they go. And it's like, until everyone knows that is like the bare minimum, then it's hard to then just analyze it as a pure only analyzes an art form because you have to have the basic idea of, you know, it'd be like if no one had ever written about art before and so I was like, do you know that sometimes people do abstract images?.

"Joe biden has prioritize climate. Change like no president ever has before yet. That's still not enough. That's jamal rod. He's the co founder and executive director of evergreen action which is a climate change policy and advocacy organization. Jamal has been fighting for progressive change on climate policy and i was curious for a climate activists. Take on biden's performance. So i i asked him how he thinks. Biden is doing on climate. His legacy will be tested by numerous issues but none more so than climate change. They're going to judge him on whether he took bold enough action to defeat the climate crisis and create a new economy. Run on one hundred percent clean energy years from now. It'll be a question of whether we did enough or let the last best opportunity to reckon with this slip. By frankly at this point if i had to give him a great it would be incomplete because it's not the first six months of matter. It's the next six months you know. They started off boldly with the pause on fossil fuel. Leasing ending the keystone excel pipeline. Appointing folks like secretary deb holland who cares about climate deeply at the department interior gene mccarthy to run the new white house climate office these are all positive elements. I think it's just hard to say that anyone is doing enough right now. I think that they've done a lot of good. There's a lot to look back on this positive as far as climate. But it's not enough. There's more that needs to be done. Can we pass a reconciliation bill in the next few months here. That actually has bold standards in our most polluting sectors of economy that make major investments to create the clean energy jobs that we need that centers justice while doing it focuses on creating jobs and on the communities that have borne the brunt of the pollution the communities hit i in worse by the climate crisis. And if they don't get this reconciliation bill done. They're going to be coming with empty hands to glasgow at the un conference where we really need to show that america's back on the international stage as far as climate leadership. And why is it so important for the us to have a prominent role in fighting climate change. We are the historical biggest emitter of carbon emissions and we have to show leadership in if we are asking the world to decarbonised by mid century than we need to do that before. Then and what's really important here is that we look at the reconciliation bill as the cold to tackling that goal and there's a lot of provisions in the draft reconciliation bill in the budget top lines. That could get us there and one of the most important pieces of it is the clean electricity payment program that would act like a clean electricity standard. If we can clean up our electricity grid and then run everything on the grid. Are our cars our buildings and then make the grid clean. That would take us a lot of the way there and so i. I really want us to see bold investments in clean electricity grid. I really wanna see us. Invest environmental justice to meet the initiative to make forty percent of our investments in black and brown and indigenous communities. That have been hit first. In worst by this crisis we need investing clean buildings so that our buildings are run on that clean electricity sector and we need a green bank to help propel jobs in clean energy job creations so those are the things that i'm looking for as kind of key pieces. We need the reconciliation bill. We need to fight for them to be invested at at a at a higher level and to keep those provisions in as we go through this process but as a good positive first step. Those are in the bill as currently written now. Now all of these conversations and congress are happening on the backdrop of the release of the new u. n. Report this week. Experts are saying that this is yet another wakeup call to really act on climate change. So what do you think. Do you have hope that this moment will bring significant change you know the takeaway from this report is that we don't need anymore. Reports scientists have been telling us for years we need to act boldly now to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. I think of this summer the summer. Twenty twenty one as a point when americans realized that climate change is no longer a chart or graph or happening in some far off future. It's happening in their communities right now. In communities across america. I'm from seattle. Which was experiencing record breaking heat waves and had the driest spring since nineteen twenty four california's a tinderbox waiting to explode with droughts wildfires. We've seen extreme weather all across this nation. We've seen smoke from western. Wildfires hit new york city in dc a few weeks ago. This is something that people are seeing their own is that are feeling in their own lungs and we may surpass the one point five degree warming threshold but we have a window opportunity to prevent the most dire outcomes and save lives. We need to take this opportunity with the stakes being so high. So i'm curious for your perspective on this. Why do you think that climate change is such difficult political circumstances. Why is climate a political problem. I think the basic problem is that the science around this has gotten polarized much like everything else in our society. The republican party in the united states is one of the only few in the international community that reject climate science and don't think that burning fossil fuels is a systemic problem. This may be due to the fact that the republican party is bought and paid for by the fossil fuel industry in case we have forgotten because we keep hearing that two thousand fourteen has been the warmest year on record. Asked the chair. You know what this is. It's a snowball and that just from outside here. So it's very very cold out very unseasonable so mr president catch this but it is a unique problem in the world. We've seen the conservative prime minister. Boris johnson in the uk call for ending the sale of internal combustion engines in cars and promote. Tv's by a date. Certain by twenty thirty five together we can reduce our emissions. We can radically cut out dependence on fossil fuels we can change our agricultural practices and in short we can reverse the process by which for centuries humanity has been quilting our planet in a toxic tea cosy of greenhouse gases. We've seen on merckel in germany bold steps to act on climate about us what we invest into climate change is expensive for the impact of climate. Change costs even more one. Setting disaster on its own is not climate. Change increased frequency of the mess. We must make big changes. Do not have that same mentorship here so anything that can be done at the scale and scope of the crisis needs to be done on a partisan basis which is unfortunate.

"Now we're going to head to Lebanon. Now we're a new governments just been appointed more than a year after the last one resigned. It ends a long period of political deadlock in which most Lebanese have slipped into poverty. The currency is worth a tiny fraction of what it was. And basic goods and services are in desperately short supply. The BBC's Anna Foster joins us on the line from Beirut and a good to have you with us on the program. Why has it taken so long to come up with a new Cabinet? That James is an excellent question one that people have been really asking for over a year. Now. One of the problems is that governments in Lebanon are very much formed along sectarian lines. They have been for a very long time. It was designed to try and make sure that many of the sector here got representation in the government, but something that was born out of decent intention. Has come to the point where it's just ham strong candidate after candidate who has tried to form a government but hasn't been able to get different people to agree who would hold the key Cabinet posts and that is why it's taken so long. For Lebanon to actually find itself in the position it does today with a functioning government, and even when, even when people hear woke up this morning, a lot of the headlines in the Lebanese newspapers were suggesting that this might be the day. But, you know, people have heard that before they've heard that so many times before, And I think there was still a dose of healthy skepticism until just after lunchtime when The parliamentary speaker, Nabih Berri was announced to be on his way to the Bob Palace. And I think at that point people realized that it looked like finally this might be about to happen. Um and so it's it's step one really in what will be a long journey to try and turn Lebanon's fortunes around its worst crisis. Frankly, economic social since it was formed, frankly, is in a terrible, terrible state. And this new 24 person cabinet 23 men, one woman that's drawing attention. Not everybody is impressed with that they would like to have seen more female representation They have starting today got a huge job on their hands to try and turn Lebanon's fortunes around. So what's different about this cabinet? I mean, what? What is it about it that might make it actually last. I mean, the new prime minister. He's not a new kid on the block, is he? No, he isn't. He's done this job but twice before which you might think puts him in good stead. He knows what he's getting into whether or not it will last is a really interesting question that they're hoping it will. Um, but there are always differences of opinion as we mentioned differences of opinion along sectarian lines. What they have brought in which is interesting is a number of technocrats. Now. At one point, there were appeals for a Cabinet comprised entirely of technocrats. People with the skills and experience necessary to try and solve Lebanon's problems. Now it's not a full Cabinet that looks like that. But there are some interesting names in there People who know what they're talking about in their field. For example, a man I'm sure you will have heard on the program before he runs one of Lebanon's biggest hospitals, has been announced as the new health minister. The new media minister is somebody who's very well known in the Arab world because he used to present who wants to be a millionaire, so there are some some recognizable faces in there. Some people who do have a lot to bring to the table, but whether or not they can actually all sit down and agree. On the key points Well, that remains to be seen. We've only got about a minute left but just in economic terms, because that's obviously the priority. What What does this Cabinet need to do now? Well, The very fact of their existence is a promising thing. Um, because various amounts of aid has been promised to Lebanon from different groups, notably the IMF, But they said, Look, we're not going to release any of this money until you've got a functioning administration in place. Why would we give you this money now until we know that you have a chance of using and spending it properly? So that is step one. Gene McCarthy, The.

"Don't worry about that. Actually, I don't even have way to pick up insurance, you know? Today we're on the streets of New York, discussing midnight cowboy with author Glenn frankel. Dustin Hoffman always took full credit for inventing that moment. He said that no one expected the cab to be coming into the crosswalk. That's not exactly true frankl says. Dustin's version is great, except when you go back and look at all those assaults script beginning in the fall of 1967 like 8 months before its film. There's a taxicab jumping into the crosswalk. The taxicab nearly bumping dust and Hoffman's rasso Rizzo was already in the script. Hoffman didn't come up with that moment. He did, however, come up with the I'm walking here line. Frankl has more on that and lots of other behind the scenes insights on the making of midnight cowboy. The Dustin Hoffman John witt movie was directed by John schlesinger and based on a novel by James Leo Hurley, both schlesinger and Hurley were gay, but they were careful about treading to explicitly on the subject of gay sexuality. It was, after all, the 1960s. Before stonewall, and before the American psychiatric association, stopped referring to homosexuality as a disease. A lot of psychoanalysts were practicing conversion therapy techniques. Conversion therapy wasn't invented in some baptist church in Arkansas somewhere. It was really invented in New York. The freudians midnight cowboy today on the drunk projectionist. I'm Todd Milne. My name is Glenn frankel, and I'm the author of shooting midnight cowboy. Art sex loneliness liberation and the making of a dark classic. He long little doggies well you know will be your new home Booker. Get along little doggies it's your man so tell me about the first time you saw the movie midnight cowboy. Oh gosh, I think I first saw it in 1969 in the summer of 69 in New York. I was finishing up my sophomore year at Columbia University. I was in New York myself and you know a young guy, a young lonely guy walking the streets of New York because I didn't have enough money to do anything else. And the movie connected with me for a number of reasons. Partly because it's so steeped in New York of that time. And because it tries to, you know, it's based in Times Square and Times Square was a place where I wandered around, mostly to go to double features. You could go to double features for 50 or 75 cents in Times Square. I remember seeing the wild bunch down there. And the Woodstock, the documentary, you know, was playing on east side for three bucks and playing in Times Square for 75 cents. So I related to all that part of it. And also to the great Dustin Hoffman who had become a sort of iconic counterculture figure with the graduate, his first movie, which came out in 67. And here he was two years later, doing an entirely different role doing it beautifully showing that he could be a real actor not just a sort of leading man celebrity guy. He looked short, he had a large nose he looked a lot like me and my cohort of people in New York. So for all those reasons I found the movie very attractive and it's stuck with me then and it's stuck with me ever since. So when you went into the movie theater and you saw Dustin Hoffman's name first before anybody else's name, or you're thinking this is going to be a Dustin Hoffman movie. Yeah, of course it was going to be a Dustin Hoffman movie. I mean, there he was, you know, on the movie poster. And there he was first in the title and this guy John voir, whatever his name was, you know. I'd never heard of him and nobody else had too, except for some cognitive off off Broadway or people who'd watched. I don't know. Naked city reruns on TV. But this turned out to be Jon Voight's movie. And Dustin Hoffman didn't come on until like the 25th minute of the movie. But by the 25th minute of the movie, I was already captivated by Joe buck, the character voice plays. So for me, it wasn't a problem. Turned out there was a bit of a problem for Dustin himself for a while there. He wasn't too pleased about that. Terrific sharing. Are you speaking to me? Well, I was just admiring that colossal shirt. I mean, that is one hell of a shirt. I bet you paint a pretty price for an am I right? Or I ain't cheap. Birds. I say it's all right shirt. I like birds. Don't want to have a you know cheap stuff on my back. Sure. Hi, cowboy. Got a cigarette. You write. It was as if he finally came to understand that the name of the movie was midnight cowboy, not midnight razzo. Yeah, that's a very cruel sentence. There's some truth to it. He wanted this part. He wanted to show that he was a character actor. He wanted to show that he just wasn't a pretty boy or a semi pretty boy. You know, movie star. Remember, both these guys and a number of their contemporaries all came up, you know, going to acting school in New York, working off off Broadway, developing their craft and their art. They were serious actors with a capital S they had no idea that they'd ever get into the movies or go to Hollywood. I mean, Dustin Hoffman did not look like Cary Grant or Robert Redford or anyone like that. So this was a big shock to his system, if you will to become a suddenly a big time not only a big time movie star because of the graduate, but a kind of counterculture icon. The graduate is a generation gap movie and it comes down on the younger side of that gap. Hoffman had already campaigned for gene McCarthy running who was running for president on the Democrat trying to get on the democratic ticket in 1968. So Hoffman was not just some sort of new great actor who it was surprising to see somebody so ethnic looking be so successful. But he also had the right things to say politically. And here he is, you know, coming in on this role looking grizzled looking so different. That just sort of sunk in the idea that he was somebody special that we could relate to as somebody.
Can He Do That?

"This news. I think the biden administration president biden. John kerry have all said this is just more evidence that the kinds of things we proposed and and the fact that we've made climate change of priorities is the right way to be going that this is just really the latest signal in the latest evidence that we really truly need to be moving as quickly as possible away from a world that relies on fossil fuels and to find different ways to power our homes and the electrify our cars and all sorts of things that will that will really slow through the rate of emissions around the world. That does leave. Open the question of how much they are getting done on that front and able to get done on that front when you step back the. Us is very important and it's the world's second largest omitting country but it's still only about fourteen or so percent of global emissions so what the us does really matters and it sets a tone for a lot of the world but it does really have to be a global effort to sort of turn the tide on the trajectory that we're heading well on the point of what we're doing here the senate this week. Pass the bipartisan infrastructure. Investment and jobs act what sorts of climate investments are in that bill. Yeah there are tens of billions of dollars for things like incentivizing clean energy and building electric charging stations and prioritizing public transit. These kinds of things. It is certainly by any measure A large amount of money but also by any measure not nearly what president biden and and other democrats had hoped to include in this bill. And they're obviously hoping for much broader and bigger funding to come out from this budget reconciliation. Bill that's working. Its way through the congress right now so a lot of that remains to be seen but i mean i think between the two the by the administration and democrats are hoping to to make a really big push on a lot of these efforts that they argue will create a lot of jobs but also are aimed at combating climate change and as we continue working on a bipartisan infrastructure. Bill and a budget resolution. I have committed. We will make historic investments in reversing climate change. I'm proud to say i would clean. Cars for america is going to be a very big part of that. Democrats promised action on climate. And we're gonna make it a vital part of the legislation. We work on in the weeks to come. Joe biden has prioritized climate. Change like no president ever has before yet. That's still not enough. That's small rod. He's the co founder and executive director of evergreen action which is a climate change policy and advocacy organization. Jamaa has been fighting for progressive change on climate policy. And i was curious for climate activists. Take on biden's performance so i asked him how he thinks. Biden is doing on climate. His legacy will be tested by numerous issues but none more so than climate change. They're going to judge him on whether he took bold enough action to defeat the climate crisis and create a new economy. Run on one hundred percent clean energy years from now. It'll be a question of whether we did enough or let the last best opportunity to reckon with this slip. By frankly at this point if i had to give him a great it would be incomplete because it's not the first six months of matter. It's the next six months you know. They started off boldly with the pause on fossil fuel. Leasing ending the keystone excel pipeline. Appointing folks like secretary deb holland who cares about climate deeply at the department interior gene mccarthy to run the new white house climate office these are all positive elements. I think it's just hard to say that anyone is doing enough right now. I think that they've done a lot of good. There's a lot to look back on this positive as far as climate. But it's not enough. There's more that needs to be done. Can we pass a reconciliation bill in the next few months here. That actually has bold standards in our most polluting sectors economy that makes major investments to create the clean energy jobs that we need that centers justice while doing it focuses on creating jobs and on the communities that have borne the brunt of the pollution. The communities hit i in worse by the climate crisis. And if they don't get this reconciliation bill done. They're going to be coming with empty hands to glasgow at the un conference where we really need to show that america's back on the international stage as far as climate leadership. And why is it so important for the us to have a prominent role in fighting climate change. We are the historical biggest emitter of carbon emissions and we have to show leadership and if we are asking the world to decarbonised by mid century than. We need to do that before them. And what's really important here is that we look at the reconciliation bill as a vehicle to tackling that goal and there's a lot of provisions in the draft reconciliation bill in the budget top lines. That could get us there and one of the most important pieces of it is the clean electricity payment program that would act like a clean electricity standard. If we can clean up our electricity grid and then run. Everything on the grid are vs our cars. Our buildings and then make the grid clean. That would take us a lot of the way there and so i. I really want us to see bold investments in clean electricity grid. I really wanna see us. Invest environmental justice to meet the initiative to make forty percent of our investments in black and brown in indigenous communities have been hit i in worst by this crisis. We need invest in clean buildings so that our buildings are run on that clean electricity sector and we need a green bank to help propel jobs in clean energy job creations so those are the things that i'm looking for as kind of key pieces. We need the reconciliation bill. We need to fight for them to be invested at at a at a higher level into keep those provisions in as we go through this process but as a good positive first step. Those are in the bill as currently written now. Now all of these conversations in congress are happening on the backdrop of the release of the new u. n. Report this week. Experts are saying that this is yet another wakeup call to really act on climate change. So what do you think. Do you have hope that this moment will bring significant change you know the takeaway from this report is that we don't need any more reports. Scientists have been telling us for years we need to act boldly now to prevent the worst impacts of climate change. I think of this summer the summer. Twenty twenty one as a point when americans realized that climate change is no longer a chart or graph or happening in some far off future. It's happening in their communities right now. In communities across america. I'm from seattle which was experiencing record breaking heat. Waves had the driest spring since nineteen twenty four california's a tinderbox waiting to explode with droughts wildfires. We've seen extreme weather all across this nation. We've seen smoke from western. Wildfires hit new york city in dc a few weeks ago. This is something that people are seeing their own is that are feeling in their own lungs and we may surpass one point five degree warming threshold but we have a window of opportunity to prevent the most dire outcomes and save lives. We need to take this opportunity with the stakes being so high. So i'm curious for your perspective on this. Why do you think that climate change is such difficult political circumstances. Why is climate a political problem. I think the basic problem is that the science around this has gotten polarized much like everything else in our society. The republican party in the united states is one of the only few in the international community that reject climate science than don't think that burning fossil fuels is a systemic problem. This may be due to the fact that the republican party is.

Geothermal wind solar but biofuels but not nuclear gene mccarthy. Who is biden's chief. Domestic climate coordinator has previously said that waste disposal issues. Related to nuclear power should be resolved before the technology is scaled up. And let's just review quickly on waste disposal. We just don't have a permanent solution to store. The waste products from creating nuclear energy that are radioactive and the life span of those products is like tens of thousands of years. We need a really good long term solution on where to put that stuff again. It's creating a lot less. Waste than fossil fuel. Energy production creates. It's it's a small small amount compared to fossil fuel waste but it is a dangerous amount and we really need a permanent solution for it. Montana is having them controversial discussions of nuclear energy right now. Forty years ago. Montana voters passed a ballot initiative that empowers them to vote up or down on any nuclear generating facility before it is constructed in the state. So if you wanna put nuclear power in montana you gotta get it through montana's voters but a representative. Derek skis has introduced a bill. To overturn that initiative. As a companion to a bill that would have a new committee studying the possibility of replacing some coal fired boilers with small modular nuclear reactors. So that's kind of where we are today in a nutshell and again all of this is very very simplified in a very complex arena. But i hope that that gives you some indication of where we've been and where we are and why the thinking on nuclear has shifted at several points throughout history. We'll come back tomorrow and do some pros and cons and opinion stuff when it.

"Of the worldwide need and the backdrop here America's been under intense pressure to show more leadership and do more with the surplus vaccine. The is sitting on and really under pressure to ship more doses to poor countries and to waive the vaccine patents of us drugmakers which biden does support. Yeah and is there enough being done to provide equitable access to vaccines kuboi. Not nearly fast enough getting at equitable global access to vaccines has probably been the most intractable the most and rather tragic challenges of this pandemic for instance africa as we know has an abysmal vaccination rate in part because it just doesn't have vaccine making capacity or supply the world health organization says that continent needs at least seven hundred million doses. But shipments have ground to a halt places that are really contained. The outbreaks from the star places like taiwan are now super vulnerable because of this delta strain because their populations are unvaccinated. So t. l. Dr this delta strain is more severe and more transmissible and then we have this real lack of supply that's bottle-necking vaccines getting into arms. Yeah it is really awful. But these are sovereign countries so beyond waving patents to let other nations produce vaccines. Which still isn't a done deal. What could be done here to increase global vaccination rates advocates. Say that we have to do whatever we can as fast as possible otherwise. It's plausible that we're going to end up seeing more deaths from covid after vaccines came online to prevent them than before. The vaccines were around. So really sad it's similar to hiv. Really where most of the hiv deaths happened after we had effective a rt immunotherapy drugs. I should note that as of this recording biden's announcement isn't out yet so right now there's only a few details on how the us could help increase vaccine supply as fast as it needs to throwing more money at. The problem is nice but An analogy would be hey no croissant recipe is gonna let me mass produced croissants tomorrow. One way to solve the supply problem maybe helping build facilities or change over facilities that could mass produce vaccines and support that last mile. The the local distribution efforts. That's what i'm going to be watching for in the formal announcement of this on biden's trip but gideon picture of just relationships if biden can use this international trip and vaccines as a goodwill offering to the rest of the world. It's a sorely needed gesture to prepare for it in ties weakened under trump to say the least but returning to the domestic front. I want to hear about infrastructure. No really i do. Negotiations broke down this week. From what i understand. With senate republicans over biden's infrastructure proposal. It would have invested billions on things like roads airport water systems broadband and more. All i know is that they broke down though so bring us up to speed where things that breakdown is right. We once again. So everyone do the bipartisanship song and dance for a while when it seems pretty painfully clear all along that republicans were not going to get to where the administration wanted this bill to be. The crux of all of this was that broad. Republicans have a not wanted to spend as much as the administration and be have been opposed to financing it with corporate tax hikes so to pretty significant sticks in the mud. When you lay out a plan that is contingent on those two elements the whole process of kind of mirrors. How the early negotiations went over the covert relief package that passed earlier this year. You had a democratic white house with majorities albeit very narrow in the senate and house being deferential to the party that doesn't control washington and then the response from a lot of democrats has been the same here as well going through that process at best waste valuable time to pass these important bills and at worst and waters down in the process and we can look to the outcome in the last case here. The relief package of course was ultimately passed via reconciliation. And this case we see that happen again. Yes that is probably what is going to happen at some point. So what's more is that after these initial infra stocks dissolves biden didn't even end up with the bare minimum of earned goodwill with the primary republican negotiator. And all of this west. Virginia's other senator shelley moore capito. Yes folks. there is another senator from west virginia. Who exactly exactly right it. Will she said yesterday that she felt the administration kept moving. The goalposts and democratic members of congress. Like new york's cortez have been getting at this overall feeling in dc at the moment with politics that the electoral promise of binds ability to work with republicans is far from reality and adhering to that flawed premise. Charlie brown football style over and over is just gonna cost democrats and the country. Well it keeps happening again and again. It feels exhausting. So if he can't get senate republicans on board which is what is apparent. What is biden next. Move here well publicly. At least he's working with a drum roll. Please bipartisan group of senators on their own proposal. That group does include probably senators bill cassidy in that romney as well as democratic senators cursing cinema joe mansion. Romney said that eight or nine republicans were involved in building this proposal out but also tax increases. Were quote red line. Which again to me begs the question. As to how pursuing a similar strategy will get different results. This time there has been some reporting to that question. You ask the least at this package could end up. Getting split into two bills with one potentially going through reconciliation biden is actually reportedly talked to senate majority leader. Chuck schumer about that possibility. Which doesn't sound as though he himself is actually too hopeful that a deal involving republicans and then in the reconciliation circumstance. Of course you would need all fifty democratic senator so perhaps it would take cinema mansion washing another round of negotiations. Blow up with their own is to get on board with that. Wow and just beyond the political process in dc. A lot of the country is going to rely on whatever shakes out because a bill like this centers on things like roads and bridges which need to be updated or repaired but also gideon. There is a critical climate. Change element to this. How is that playing into the discussion of the bill. Yeah i mean. People are rightfully concerned that that part is sort of falling by the wayside or at least out of focus baden's climate visor. Gene mccarthy turned heads earlier this week when she said to politico that the infrastructure bill could end up lacking some of the proposed climate measures. The president had put forward. She did say though. That biden was still quote going forward on that front but a lot of democrats voiced their concerns namely democratic. Senator martin heinrich ed markey. Who basically said that. The exclusion of climate priorities like a clean electricity standard. For instance with threatened their votes for an ultimate bill. So you could be losing votes from the left. Yes that is definitely a possibility. Not only there but the same sentiment is also being shared in the house where the margins are also slim. Here's representative from paul. The chair of the congressional progressive caucus kind of getting at this overall frustration on msnbc earlier. This week. We can wait another week. We can negotiate with one. Different republican senator or two different republican senators but the result is not going to be different because this republican party has no interest. These republican senators have no interest in doing anything that the people desperately need or want. That is kind of vibe from a lot of members right now so we'll.

Joe Biden's Options To Combat Climate Change
"President-elect biden says contending with the pandemic will be his priority when he takes office in january but another global crisis is before the world climate change and experts say time is running out gene mccarthy served as administrator of the environmental protection agency under president obama and join just now. Thanks so much for being with us. Thank you scott. It's great to be here assuming Swimming there's going to be divided power in washington. What critical climate policies. Do you believe. President biden should use executive authority to to get through first of all. I think he's already made it clear that he's going to re enter the paris accord right away and of course then you have opportunities to establish standards like standards for power plant emissions these looking for clean energy in this country by twenty thirty five so that needs to get moving and we can you know basically at my beloved epa. Make sure that people are in place that cam more about the public than they do themselves and that can can once again do their job to protect the american people. Progressive groups have called for a transition an administration that doesn't include any people with connections to the fossil fuel industry. Does that strike you as wise or does it risk losing some talented people who know how to make and government run you know. I think that it's it's very understandable. That people are worried that they do everything possible not to allow the kind of of appointments that president trump put into place which was all fossil fuel people. And it's gotten us nowhere fast. It even missed the boat on jobs because clean energy was was moving forward at over three times the pace of the overall economy in terms of job growth else but if at one point let's say representative fossil fuel industry of them company or later far as you're concerned that would be enough to take them out of consideration. No i don't think i need to hold. The hod infest line like that scott. I think there are many lawyers. That would be solid in those positions. But i clearly trust the judgment of joe biden and his administration to have the best people in place are working at the best interest of the country Prenton biden says of course it to rejoin the paris agreement on on day. One in office that the. Us didn't meet promises it had already. How would how would it do it now. I feel very strongly that even though there has been a lack of effort on the issue of climate change at the federal level that we have you know twenty nine states that have clean energy standards. We have three hundred plus cities that have taken the pledge to meet the climate accord clean energy still remains the growth opportunity for us Given the size of the greenhouse gas emissions we omit we certainly have a an obligation to jump back in with both feet with a little bit of deference to all our co Who have been holding the ford candidates to deny or discount. Climate change won millions of votes in this last election. How does a president biden proposed to get through an ambitious program with that kind of congress. You know. I think what i would suggest. Is that people want jobs. People want fairness people. Want to be healthy and i think the more we can show the value of clean energy even in your pocket books then. People will be much less afraid to recognize that climate change is happening and they'll start demanding that folks on the hill start acting like they do which is to face reality and to make the kind of change we need. They don't have to be coded as climate change. Initiatives they can be initiatives that grow jobs and grow the economy gina mccarthy former administrator of the epa now ceo of the natural resources defense council. Thank you so much for being with

"Hey. How's it going? It's raining here in sweet each tree city, Georgia and I. Am Unai stay -Cation Wu. Right. Why do I need to stick? Asian only because I needed vacation of sorts, so the only thing I'm doing. For the next several days is this podcast? I actually started my vaca- Yesterday after doing a really wonderful interview with gene, McCarthy on the bubble hours so hopefully by the time you're hearing this. That podcast will be out as well. I have a vulnerability hangover today. I. Shared a little bit more about my story than I have another podcast, so do take a listen, but for today let's move on to our topic I want to get back to my steak Haitian. I haven't talked about this in a while and boy. Oh, boy! Is it a topic for what we're living through in this new era? That we. Will likely be writing about in the history books for a long time to come, and that topic is stress tolerance and what is stress. You know, and how do we build resilience for it? This world that we have created is loaded with pressure pain strife trouble strain all those words of stress. We all feel it and by the way if you were immune to it before which I don't know anybody who was immune to it and. God bless America. There were some people who were really thriving in stress, but this is a different take on stress. When into agree this whole covert. Some people are better at responding to life's trials and tribulations. How do they do that? How do some people cope with adversity in a way that better positions them for a good content, or not up, and down the motionlessly driven life, while others of us, like maw appear to struggle more or sometimes get stuck, or in my case and lot of times over my life span. I've gotten stuck. What's the difference? What are other people doing? And what can you do to build more stress tolerance into your life? Even, people who have better skills developed in practiced to deal with stress at some point in their. And for the rest of US many points in our lives. Everyone experiences extreme emotional states and variances for some people, the presence of overwhelm or uncontrollable feelings in response to stress, occurs pretty regularly, and I will say as someone who has long suffered straight out of the womb with anxiety. I have to be really up a my distress, tolerance skills or my stress, tolerant skills, because when I didn't have these skills, which was for a large part of my life, until I got sober at forty six, not to say that I didn't have some stress, tolerance skills, but when I discovered alcohol and Ben Zozo and pills. Those became my go-to methods of dealing with my stress. I needed to learn something different, because I developed a pretty damn severe addiction to both alcohol, and Ben Zoro's but for the rest of us, even if you have a mild substance, use, disorder, or a moderate substances, disorder, or no substance, use disorder, we could all benefit from learning skills of tolerance. Just in case you don't know the signs. Of Not Being Stress Tolerant, let me go over them. Of course, depression or anxiety or going between those two in somewhat rapid movement. Maybe over the course a month you'll feel I depressed and then lots of anxiety up and down that roller, coaster Another sign is anger, irritability, restlessness and boy. Oh, boy, are we all feeling that over the course of these days when we're
San Francisco Chronicle Sports - Spoken Edition
Future of Football: Readers respond
"You're listening to the spoken edition of the San Francisco Chronicle. Future a football readers respond by Al Sarah Cevic in late October, the chronicle published a six part series examining the future of football. The premise was simple now that we know the sport can cause lasting brain damage. Driving some to suicide. What are we going to do about it a dedicated team of chronicle? Journalists spent months digging into the subject, you can read the whole thing at SF chronicle dot com slash future afoot ball in a letter to chronicle subscribers I encouraged response. What do you think should be done? What will the game look like in twenty years? Let me share a few of those voices. Thanks, your reflection is so important. I did love your projection that football would look like boxing. Why the continued ignorance with little effort to address the problem, Frederick e Hessler at San Francisco, all your main recommendations. Make logical sense. And are the right thing to do. I was lucky. I was too small for playing grade school football, my coach realized this I believe in I sat on the bench. My mother always feared I would get seriously injured with regard to parents and kids now ultimately people need to make their own decisions about what to do with regard to their children playing football. If flag football is an option that would be great. I believe sooner than later American football, as we know it won't be as popular. Instead people will migrate to lesser injury prone sports that are also rewarding for fans parents schools and students John Durham Napa. Everybody's jumping on the football is dangerous bandwagon. This story is long winded bull all major sports have physical contact soft. Wimps are ruining this country and turning our men into soft little pansies look at the average something male today. Weak wimps worrying about the. Next superhero or Star Wars movie, all this coddling and winding is pathetic name withheld. I'm sixty eight I played for four years in high school and a year of college. I never finished a season mostly knee injuries. But I broke my thumb in college in a way that required surgery. I also boxed in college. I attended a forty Niners Cam for high school students where a very aggressive game of quote unquote, touch resulted in a hit that caused me to lose vision in one eye for a few plays naturally. I stayed in the game. So far it hasn't caught up to me. Anyway, I think one partial solution is to make all the pads and helmets soft on both the inside and the outside. Also, I think many knee injuries could be eliminated. If there were no cleats Leif ODA grin Petaluma step one change, the channel the rest of it really won't matter so much Greg Tolman, Berkeley Ulta. Emmett frisbee all quarterbacks. No, linebackers, spike. Connor Redwood City. It would be interesting to know, whether rugby has the same level of problems with brain trauma as football rugby players wear. No helmets or padding. And there are strict rules about tackling. I suspect that the protective gear in football increases the incidence of brain trauma because it allows players to hit each other harder. It doesn't take a direct head impact or cause a concussion. The sudden acceleration from a hard hit can do it. Even if there's no head contact in rugby players are less inclined to use their bodies as weapons when tackling because it could cause injury to the tacklers. It's counter intuitive, but reducing the amount of protective gear in football could make it a safer sport. The culture of the sport has to change to players coaches fans broadcasters and reporters have to stop seeing a disabling hit as a good thing. Ng? Jeff Lichtman Elsa. Reto? Bravo end. This disgusting sport. There's five thousand four hundred seventy two more peaceful ways for young people to quote, unquote, build character, Chris Moffet, San Ramon great articles on the game of football. If you get a chance read some of the books or articles on John gangly Ardy, the Saint John's university division three coach whose philosophy on the game of football was so different than any coach. I've known even in the fifties and sixties no tackling in practice. No practice longer than ninety minutes. Water breaks it Sarah his philosophy worked. He one more football games. Four hundred eighty nine than any coach in NC double A history along with four national championships. I played for John in the sixties on one of his championship teams. We never had anyone hurt in practice except the occasional ankle sprain. We had a few transfers from schools like. The university of Minnesota where Murray Warmoth coached with the philosophy of making the practices tougher than the games kind of survival of the fittest code that was not unusual at that time football needs to change again. Thanks for the great articles Terry Underwood, according Madera, here's a modest proposal. Make everyone eligible why linemen are ineligible for passes. Always been a mystery to me this is somewhat more radical than the eight ten offense. I think that's what it was called that. The Piedmont high coaches developed and was voted down by the NF s but it would keep the nature of the game intact while changing dramatically if everyone is eligible the game will spread out, and there will be more of a premium on speed and agility, then raw size, power football will make less sense and just as the three point line and the warriors style has pretty much removed the power game from basketball, especially at the lower levels. There will be a shift toward more scoring. And use of the whole field. It's not a complete or perfect solution. Of course. But it moves the game away from one on one contact and towards skill and speed clay Callum, walnut creek, the late US Senator, gene. Mccarthy democrat Minnesota had a great line. He said football is like politics, you have to be smart enough to understand the game and dumb enough to think it's important Eric mills Oakland, thanks to all of our readers who responded, interestingly, we didn't get much from people defending the sport as it stands. Maybe we're preaching to the choir here in the bay area. Maybe people are starting to see the truth.
