David Sirota On Climate Change At The Oscars And The Power Of Storytelling

David Sirota is a journalist, author, founder and Editor in Chief of The Lever, podcast narrator, and now an Oscar nominee for his work co-writing Don't Look Up with Adam McKay. He joins us on the show days before the Oscars to discuss the importance of having a climate change film at the Academy Awards, how he came up with the idea for Don't Look Up, and how the film is even more relevant now during the rightwing push for more fossil fuel extraction.
