About this episode
Climate anxiety is keeping us all up at night, but you’d never know it from watching a Hollywood blockbuster. Our guest, Anna Jane Joyner, is the founder and CEO of Good Energy, a non-profit that advises filmmakers and showrunners on how to weave in climate narratives – without killing the vibe. She talks about growing up with a climate-denying dad, how rarely climate change shows up in entertainment and how a simple climate reality check – a new kind of Bechdel test – can help.
Also, Vass and Katrina consider buying the Batmobile now that it’s electric.
