Interesting podcast but I always feel like they’re towing the line of the establishment, not addressing concerns such as why on earth we are subsidising oil and gas companies by billions each year (when they make enormous profits) but moaning about how expensive green energy is…. Dismissing alternative economics when we all know the current state of economics is not working….. definitely I feel they are told what to discuss and what to leave out, which is disappointing.
