Summary
John discusses President Biden pardoning his son Hunter despite saying he would not do so and he lists off all the crazy pardons of Trump and other past presidents. Then he interviews the executive director of the Climate Justice Alliance, KD Chavez; who is a revolutionary mother, organizer, and strategist, that leads by way of ancestral knowledge and the land. Climate Justice Alliance has spent the last decade in social justice philanthropy moving millions to the frontlines and working to advance freedom through culture shift and intentional investments. Next, he jokes with comedian Chris Grace about his new show "Chris Grace: As Scarlett Johansson" which reimagines what is and isn’t possible—or appropriate—in the life of an artist as it celebrates the life of the greatest Asian-American actor of all time: Scarlett Johansson. Inspired by her controversial role in the 2017 film "Ghost in the Shell". And finally, John chats with comedian Rhonda Hansome and they take calls from The Evil Army of the Night on the foreboding political scene.
