In 2016, I wrote a show about @algore going on an I-Told-You-So tour of America. I think there were 3 people in the audience. That show morphed into An Inconvenient Talk Show at @caveatnyc, which became such a big part of my life that I went to grad school to get a degree in climate science and policy to make the show better. The pandemic turned the live show into the YouTube series @climatetown, and that little YouTube channel is now a company with employees, healthcare, and most importantly, a pool table. Whenever anyone asked if I was ever going to do the Al Gore show again, I would say, “only if Al Gore is the guest.” It was not a serious thought, but a tiny part of me was secretly hoping somehow Al Gore would find out about me impersonating him, think it was funny, and decide to come on the show. A few months ago @climatereality contacted me and last weekend I achieved the weirdest dream I’ve ever had. The real Al Gore is a brilliant and funny dude, and I am forever grateful to him for letting me host An Inconvenient Talk Show one last time for 3000 people. Never meet your hero unless your hero is Al fuckin’ Gore.
