What do pasta, polar bears, and the Pope have in common? They all show up in this episode about climate change. Peterson Toscano refuses to preach doom or guilt—instead, you’ll hear Jewish wisdom on acting fast in a crisis, Christian takes on food justice, and a Bronx guy who’s had it with polar bears. Also: coffee is under threat, so now you’re paying attention. And we end on a diesel-fumed bus ride through Quito, Ecuador, where the future smells like electricity.

Part One: My first time having sex with a woman was on my wedding night and it was her first time too. We were virgins. We knew nothing. My pastor gave me a book to break it down. I tell this story as if I am at a Stand-Up comedy club open mic.
Part Two: Seeing the Paul Taylor Dance Company today brought back a flood of memories from when I first saw them in NYC in the late 1980's. At that time I was deep into gay conversion therapy trying to become straight. What would have happened if I didn't go down that path?
Part Three: A Sound slice of audio recorded in my study in Sunbury Pennsylvania. My husband and I live in a renovated passenger railroad station that was designed in the late 1880's by famed architect, Frank Furness. I heard it was the first railroad station to be lit by electrification, set up by Thomas Edison and his crew.
Music:
The Bubble & Squeak Theme song is Worthless by The jellyrox from the Bang and whimper album. You also heard Know Your Lies by Water Mirrors and I Will Remember Everything Forever by Ave Air. Both are available on EpidemicSound.com
