Summary
It's bring your coworker to work day at the StraightioLab offices as Gawker's very own investigative reporter Claire Carusillo joins the boys to dismantle overhead lighting. As always, the discussion is nuanced and informed as we explore which forms of climate terrorism are kind of a slay, how to talk to a celebrity without violating their rights, and what the hell is going on with ConEd. Democracy dies in the darkness? Or is that what big lighting WANTS you to think?! Wake up and turn the lights off!
