    Great show but needs a marketing boost.

    I would put Linnea Luekin as Host and hire Natalie Winters from Steve Bannon’s Podcast “The War Room” as an advisor and contributor!

    Keep up the awesome work!

    If you are interested in following science, this isn’t the podcast for you. Of your liking to reinforce what bunk Fox News has passed along, here’s more of the same.

  • Full of disinformation

    Having studied environmental science at the university level, I sometimes get curious what climate deniers are up to…

    Boy, you folk do not disappoint! This pod is full of nonsense arguments that if you think, even for one second, are utter nonsense. The bias is gobsmacking

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Space Mirrors to Save Solar Power? | The Climate Realism Show #194
Q: What would it take to convince climate scientists that humans are causing dangerous climate change, and what was the response from scientists the guest spoke with?
Five of the scientists interviewed said there was nothing that would convince them to change their view, while one gave a specific condition (overturning fundamental physics) that would need to be true to change his mind.
Climate Paper Tigers – The Climate Realism Show #193
Q: What changes do you hope to see in U.S. climate and energy policy from the current administration?
A return to constitutional norms, reduced reliance on international agreements and regulatory overreach, and a focus on energy affordability and innovation rather than expansive government control.
Climate Paper Tigers – The Climate Realism Show #193
Q: Do you see climate refugees as a real phenomenon, or is it mostly a financial and political narrative?
The program argues that climate refugees do not exist in the way the story often suggests; migration is driven more by war, governance, and poverty, while climate change is a minor contributing factor with no clear long-term trend in drought or displacement.
Climate Paper Tigers – The Climate Realism Show #193
Q: What is the thesis of Climate Porn and what motivated you to write it?
The book argues that anti-population zealotry fabricates science to undermine capitalism, freedom, and independence, and it links regulatory overreach to a broader effort to suppress human advancement. The motivation was to reframe discussions around independence and U.S. sovereignty while challenging globalist policy frameworks.
IT’S OVER! US Out of UN Climate Regime (Guest: Lucy Biggers)
Q: How did the climate movement impact you personally?
It created a lot of cognitive dissonance for me, where I realized that I was only showing part of the story in my activism.
