I'm Akshatrati and this summer on my podcast zero, I'm doing a series about climate storytelling, how we talk about climate change and what it means for how we confront it.

This week I'm interviewing Dorothy Fortenberry, executive producer of extrapolations and Apple TV climate show.

All of the current shows on TV that are taking place right now that don't portray climate change, those are the science fiction shows.

Listen to zero on the iHeart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Oddlots podcast. I'm Joe Wyzenthal.

And I'm Tracy Alloway. Tracy, you watching anything good on TV Tuesdays? No, I'm serious.

Um, I just finished watching the bear, which I know you also watched, right?

I did. I switch off usually between watching like some new show and then going back and watching all six seasons of the sopranos.

And then watching a new show and then the sopranos again. So I think I recently, right before the bear, I did my seventh viewing of the sopranos.

It's one of these things I never, I don't know what to watch now. I don't have a new show. Do you need suggestions?

I need suggestions. Actually, I just finished watching all of Cheers, which I've never seen really like it was kind of it was always in the background.

I was a big Frazier fan. So I thought I should try Cheers and I really enjoyed it.

I want to watch Northern exposure, but it's not on any of the streaming services. Yeah, I would love to rewatch it.

I remember my mother loved that show. Um, okay. Well, we are not, we are not actually doing TV reviews. Are we?

We could, but you know, it is true. There is a lot of archive TV material to watch. You don't even need to watch new shows.

No, that is true. You could endlessly watch the back catalogs of old TV, which is fun and entertaining, but has also given rise to a new issue for us to worry about.

Right. And so, you know, right now we are in the midst of sort of, I think at least two strikes.

I think that the writers, the screenwriters in Hollywood have been on strike for at least a few months now, the actors are on strike.

So while there's plenty to watch and actually people are excited about going to the movies again for the first time in a while, like my understanding is that basically nothing is getting made right now.
