In this penultimate episode of Hot Mess: How Climate Consensus Turned Into Political Chaos, we expand our focus beyond the United States to explore the global landscape of climate skepticism. Climate denial is not just an American phenomenon but takes on unique forms in different nations, influenced by cultural, political, and economic factors. We compare the deeply entrenched skepticism in the U.S. with the varied approaches seen in countries like China, Germany, Australia, and South Korea, shedding light on what drives climate attitudes worldwide.

Featuring insights from four dynamic voices, this episode delves into how media, education, and policy influence public perception and what lessons can be learned from global successes and failures in addressing climate change.

Featured Guests:

Katie Zakrzewski: Co-host of Green Tea Party Radio and a young conservative from the South, Katie provides a deep dive into climate skepticism in the U.S. and contrasts it with Europe and beyond.

Horace Mo: Former Citizens Climate Radio intern, Horace shares his experiences growing up in China and reflects on the nation’s ambitious strides in renewable energy and urban planning.

Jose Aguto: Climate advocate and former Associate Director of the Catholic Climate Covenant, Jose discusses the global Catholic response to climate change and the unique challenges faced by the U.S. Church.

Zach Torpie: Co-host of Green Tea Party Radio, Zach highlights how young conservatives are driving forward-thinking climate solutions and pushing for energy independence through renewables.

Very rough! Just the first take.
A song questioning what the afterlife will be like for skeptics.
Played on acoustic guitar.

"One question
did spring
From this departed
being
It sincerely 
asked them,
'Why?' "

Non Serviam Podcast #64 - Liberating Body & Mind with Thomas J. Webb

The New Utah Podcast, Episode 464 - Nothing to Fear! This week we sit down with Shane, Kirsten, and Tim from the Beehive Skeptics group. They have a regular local meet up for folks to discuss various things and use critical thinking. They have a podcast, being rebranded to Nothing to Fear and we talk all about various things from science, to flat earthers, to masking and everything in between. Follow us @tnupodcast or visit us at TheNewUtah.com

464 - Nothing To Fear

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 18th century philosopher and essayist David Hume's essay "The Skeptic", found in his Essays Moral, Political, and Literary, the first of his four essays that bear names of members of philosophical schools, about which he tells us: "The intention . . . is not so much to explain accurately the sentiments of the ancient sects of philosophy, as to deliver the sentiments of sects, that naturally form themselves in the world, and entertain different ideas of human life and of happiness. I have given each of them the name of the philosophical sect, to which it bears the greatest affinity."

The Skeptic is the longest of the four essays, and can be taken as a short presentation of Hume's own ideas about philosophy and life. The perspective of this fourth essay calls into question the perspectives of the three previous essays, and focuses not only on the difference in viewpoints on important matters between human beings, but also on why this is the case. It turns out the ascriptions of values such as beautiful or ugly, worthy or contemptible are additions to judgements about the truth or falsity of matters, and these value-ascriptions derive from a number of particular circumstances.

Live By Your Word
© 2011 by Eric Carl Dahl

Got a friend, he’s a car mechanic
Says fixing broke-down cars is not his niche
There are so many mechanics
and he’s not trying to get rich.
He’s an honest man, that’s a lifelong position
His niche is being an honest mechanic
He says there’s no competition.

These are some broke-down days
In case you haven’t heard.
Gonna get confused and lost in the maze
Unless you live by your word.

Came here looking for a job,
stranger said she’d get me on track.
When she called with work, I was so grateful and surprised
She said, “Did you think
I wouldn’t call back?”
I said, “Maybe I’m not used to
people doing what they say.”
She said, “In these parts
you better do what you promise
Or you have to move away.”

These are some broke-down days —

The way you waited to attack
until I’d given all I’ve given
And the way you went blank
as you knifed me in the back
Are the true signs of the times we live in.

These are some broke-down days
In case you haven’t heard.
Gonna get confused and lost in the maze
Unless you live by your word.

Kingdom Come


The town he was from
Is a place called Kingdom Come
With a sandy riverbank
And a funny name—
It’s the one place on this earth
He still drove from Fort Worth,
Cause Kingdom Come is so far away
It stays the same.

I’m going back to Kingdom Come,
Back to the place I’m from.
Look across the water, walk on the air,
Finding things I lost somewhere,
I’m going back to Kingdom Come.

With a Bible in his hand,
He knew his Lord and took a stand,
Found some others in the Bible Belt who agree.
He said, “Could God mess up so bad
On the best idea he had?
No, you’re not going to burn in eternity.”

I’m going back to Kingdom Come . . . .

He was 90 years old.
We were talking about the faith I withhold,
And how religion
Can seem like pure fraud.
I said, “Do you still teach those classes?”
He said, “Everything passes.
Lately I’ve been walking on the riverbank
Talking with God.”

I’m going back to Kingdom Come . . . .

Kingdom Come

The music for the verses, pre-chorus, and chorus were written in order but with several years between each one. Given the type of chord progression for the chorus, challenges were overcome in regard to layers of the final choruses being well-tuned with the just scale and equal temperament in mind. Even so, it was fun to put together the counter melodies that were engineered to harmonically fit like a glove. If you think you’re hearing an opera-style singer near the end, that’s the real deal. Not typical for a reggae rock tune, I would say. Vocalists are R. Reese, Ilya Mirosh of Poland, Mailen Blanco Arriola and Martina Perez of Argentina.

Eric Dahl is a songwriter with ties to the state of Washington on both sides of the Cascade mountains. He was born in Colville in the northeastern corner of the state. His father was a teacher from Spokane who soon moved with his family to western Washington. Dahl’s mother is a native of Leavenworth with relatives in the Wenatchee Valley. Eric grew up in Kent and south Seattle, but thanks to his maternal grandfather and uncles, he worked in the Leavenworth fruit orchards and hiked from an early age in the Cascade Mountains to the high lakes. Later he studied and published poetry at Whitman College in Walla Walla, the University of Washington in Seattle, and at Oxford University where he was awarded the Isis Poetry Prize.
