Hey Drill listeners, we are about to go on a brief hiatus to get to the next investigative

0:16.9

season ready to put out to all of you.

0:20.0

In the meantime, I wanted to let you know about the other show that I do with my co-host

0:25.8

Mary and I.s Heggler. It's called Hot Take and we take a feminist race forward lens to the

0:33.2

biggest story of our time climate change. It's a holistic, irreverent, no bullshit look at the

0:38.9

climate crisis and all the ways that we're talking and not talking about it. We're actually on a

0:44.6

season break over there too, but we are putting out the occasional bonus episode. The one I'm going

0:50.4

to play for you here is all about why it's always time to talk about climate and why this idea

all at once is silly. We also have a newsletter going over there. It is a weekly newsletter that is

1:08.8

a roundup of all of the climate coverage happening and also analysis exclusive essays from Mary

there. We'll drop a link in the show notes and you can also follow Hot Take at Real Hot Take and

1:33.5

follow Drilled at We Are Drilled. Especially with the Black Lives Matter protest going on nationwide,

1:39.2

I've had a few people ask how that movement overlaps with the climate movement. This episode answers

1:45.3

all of those questions and more. We'll get into that right after a message from this week's sponsor.

2:16.0

Hello and welcome to Hot Take. The podcast where we take a look at the climate crisis and the

2:29.7

climate conversation. I'm Mary Annie's Heggler and I'm Amy Westervalt. Today we're going to do one

2:37.0

of our special in-between season episodes. These are the ones that we're calling Hot Take Unwined.

2:42.2

Last time we did these we were drinking wine but this time we're not drinking wine because

2:46.6

it's a heavier kind of week. So we're both going with like actual cocktails and we're not playing
