Hey Polpa Chair, it's Hacks on Tap with David Axelrod and Mike Murphy.

As the governor said, we've had temperatures explode this summer.

We may have learned that we broke a world record in the Death Valley, 130 degrees, but even in greater L.A., 120 degrees.

And we're seeing this warming trend make our summers warmer, but also our winters warmer as well.

But I think one area of mutual agreement and priority is vegetation management.

But I think we want to work with you to really recognize the changing climate and what it means to our forest and actually work together with that science.

Science is going to be key because if we ignore that science and sort of put our head in the sand and think it's all about vegetation management, we're not going to succeed together protecting Californians.

Okay, it'll start getting cooler.

I wish you just watch.

I wish science agreed with you.

I don't think science knows actually.

So we'll start today's episode off with some good news.

Pay no attention to the apocalyptic orange smoke or the red skies because chief scientist Donald Trump has weighed in and it's just going to start cooling off.

Mike, I noticed you've got a brand new L.A. tan at 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

So you must be excited to know it's all just going to cool off.

Yeah, I've been busy all day browsing is bestestfiresoot.com and they're fortunately raising prices now due to the huge demand here.

Yeah, it's pretty remarkable.

You know, that thing may be laugh.

I should be crying, but that bit with Trump and the climate scientists made me laugh because it reminded me of the classic movie, The Thing, the original one where the large monster James Arnest shows up.

And there's of course the two fisted Air Force guy.

I think Doc I'll shred it like a carrot.

And of course there's the professor and this being a cold war paranoia film the professor says no, no, he's from a much more advanced planet.
