Once again we bring news of the good deeds of the Donald. Tony Blair nearly wins right-wing nut of the week for his crazy pro fossil intervention on behalf of his petro state clients, but he’s pipped by the Tories' energy man who probably believes the Earth is flat and definitely won’t get to do that which he says he will do. We talk Dale writing f…

This week we look at Trump’s good deeds, from Oz to Canada to China and we invite Richard Tice to come out of the closet. We open with a libel update, a heat pump story and something called Nexit. And then there’s AI and Crypto - both energy guzzlers, but what does Crypto actually do. Great listener questions and they’re at it again on X rated corn…

In this week's show, an irrational ex Labour PM joins Farage - in nonsense on net zero. The Telegraph smeared Dale again, then apologised and then donated to Gaza - all in less than a week. In the saga the score stands at 8-0. Dale finds an unlikely ally in Richard Tice, but only half so and Zero carbon homes are back on the agenda, starting with a…

The need for more Nuclear cops, the MAGA diet that will surely work, more pointless tariffs and a madly big cheque - on one side as we take a dive into something you might call Nexit. With the usual gaggle of listeners chipping in, not least about the last ice age.Dale Vince

Times Radio out does the Telegraph for a Daily Dale this week as we mix British Steel - energy and a nutty new right wing narrative - about Ed Milliband - with the new line from Nige and Semi, while our contributors in X rated corner make clear just how dangerous that is. We’ve got a bit of a food focus too as our right wing nut award goes to a Big…

Trump’s tariff assault on the World has unexpected consequences, of course, but this one takes the biscuit. As factory farming comes under attack, for a reverse pandemic and the rise of superbugs - the public strikes back, we get an update on grass as food. Ian has a fan but it’s not what it seems. And a new direct action group start making Citizen…

Trump versus the weathermen - hedge funds to the rescue? Tesla and the China Syndrome. California (not so) dreaming, sea water sucking, woods and trees and net zero ducking. The return of Cummings! and er what’s Bianca got to do with it….RickAAAY?Dale Vince

Musk faces market Karma while Trump pumps Tesla, and a tiny tax that could change everything. Dale has a dress code issue with government security and Ian puts on his Reform hat to explain it all. This week's right wing nut Kemi B tells big porkies about net zero in the week a new report paints the clearest picture yet. Over the pond Greenpeace fac…

This week Dale’s looking for a job, animal poo from farms gets a new classification, lab grown food meanwhile is round the corner, the Aussies print a new house, Reform talk farm manure about energy, pylons that can cut your energy bills and a global kickback against the Musk. Chock full of sense and nonsense - with a sprinkling of X rated corner. …

We got that, Dale in Tatler, Bezos in third, religious attitudes to this eco stuff, the wealth tax comes back, Drax giving us all the Vs and windmills going dark - who could want more? We got X rated corner if you do....:)Dale Vince

The “HamasGate” saga endgame approaches as the Daily Mail and Guido Fawkes fold. We look at a new report from those eco fanatics at the CBI while the fossil fools at BP doubles down. And in its latest report The Climate Change Committee talks cars and kebabs. Dale explains why we need to ‘break the link’ in order to get our bills down - but is anyo…

This week we brush past the latest improbabilities that are Trump actuals and dive into food and nature. Wolves can help us cut carbon and the eye crushing of shrimps. The Telegraph appear to be Dale’s new media platform as they carry his social media posts as stories - this week Jim Radcliffe and Man Utd in the crosshairs. And then there’s the inc…

Good news for tree huggers. Bad news for the perps of Hamasgate. Green skyscrapers, invisible killers and Trump’s exploding straws. Great audience questions give us Dale's new motor, diamond lessons and Ian gets a roasting - while X-rated corner makes some sense! What is happening...?Dale Vince

This week Dale faces fact-free allegations from the party of corruption. And we go where economists fear to tread - running the numbers on new runways and oil, and we look at the mini nukes that defy the laws of economic gravity. Some bunch of eco loons reckon we can add £57bn to our GDP with green stuff... and avoid three more Brexits with nature …

One article every day for five days looks like an obsession. A mad media week ending with dawn till dusk coverage on Gaza, donations, Heathrow, big green energy projects and a middle eastern connection - a proper eclectic mix with one element in common. And the oxymoron that is Sustainable Aviation Fuel. Has Labour blown its green credentials? And …

This week - Trump’s withdrawal method, Musk’s Dr Strangelove arm, the heat pump light begins to dawn on Ed and the end of wind in the US as China’s races to zero. Plus deadly jellyfish, natures answer? a zero-carbon airline and Ecotricity’ s plant based canteen. Wrapping up with X-Rated Corner, have FGR signed Ivanka Trump……Don’t miss it.…

We’ve got it all, US flat earthers land in Blighty, Reform want new coal mines - while climate scientists talk of weather whiplash. One side is hideously wrong. Meanwhile, is Veganuary flopping? Who says we need more roads to get to net zero and X-Rated corner gives us a fact - you couldn’t make that up..:)…

Trump out-Trumps himself - with his imperial ambitions for Greenland, Canada and the Panama Canal… while his new his bro Musk wants to run Britain. Biz bosses earn astounding sums but can’t pay tax - while the climate crisis does untold economic harm last year. And Trump wants to ban wind - that just sounds odd. We have X-rated corner for light rel…

In this episode we explore a pivotal year - from Labour’s game-changing election win, the global surge in renewables, hitting that 1.5 degree target a decade too soon and warnings of more to come. Dale breaks down the good and the bad - and the bold solutions emerging for the coming year - as we approach the start of the second half of that vital l…

This episode we got Big Food trying to stop cows from farting, Musk trying to pollute our politics, we hear about Dale’s week in the High Court, his visit to the Guardian picket line and some great green energy news. On X rated corner we have fabulous backhanded compliments, Liberace and another conspiracy theory, while regular listeners chip in wi…

Bendy solar panels can do what? US support for UN climate plans begets fury. Milk can’t be called milk… and a wooden football stadium is now nailed on. Musk threatens to distort British politics - Reform already does that... while X Rated corner continues to entertain.Dale Vince

A very special live episode from Liverpool Accelerator City.... :)Dale Vince

Noisy heat pumps, pointless COPs, Fags and Bacon - and Farming's new bestie... yeah right. Plus some old chestnuts - and false choices.Dale Vince

Another oil baron kicks off another Petrostate COP this week – Keir Starmer stands up for climate justice, sets bold new target but makes interesting claim, - while 18 of the G20 are doing their laundry or something. I revel in my new role of ‘Staines remover’ and we look at the curious story of Turkey ’theft’ by a vet. With of course fab Qs from t…

Right wing nuts dominate the latest episode… but here's why Trump won’t be able to stop Net Zero and James Dyson should stop whinging and pay his taxes like the rest of us.Dale Vince

This week we talk Budget, Green-on-Green battles, why I'm saying No in November, and I unpack my supposed "shadowy" support for the Labour Party...:)Dale Vince

We got left and right wing nuts this week - as the heat pump rumble, rumbles on and I’m accused of all manner of things. The UN issues a stark warning ‘apocalypse this century’ looks nailed on. With the Budget coming, we talk about making tax more fair. Water companies continue to outrage, their apocalypse is surely just around the corner. All with…

The Monbiot episode? Well, it was hard to avoid some mention of the extraordinary attacks, sparked by my public comments on Heat Pumps. Our school dinner campaign has bled over (wrong choice of words?) into the NHS - I’ve been advocating for more tax (again) and then we talk Drax (the actual one) and the bonkers plans of the last government to buy …

This week we talk Regicide, Hurricanes, Football, Climate Villains (and tax exiles) and news giving us reason to maybe co opt that old right wing saw “what about China?”. Then we get to the serious stuff, listener questions and we have fish on the beach, cows in the room, grid fairies and zero carbon flying (no fairy tale that) - and X rated corner…

Cracking episode... We kick off with the Tory party conference - just another episode in the saga of the race to lead the zombie party. We celebrate the end of coal in the UK, although the joy’s somewhat dampened by a big gamble on Carbon Capture. In 'non-news', we have fossil fuel companies not investing in green... Our undercover team’s been busy…

This week – we dive into the Labour Conference with fringe events, speeches, and wall-to-wall media interviews, covering donations, wealth tax, and winter fuel allowance... The big bad boy that landed in the press was the mandatory meat and dairy for school dinners, stirring up quite the storm... Keir Starmer’s sausage slip-up makes the headlines, …

This week - An ex government minister says some crazy stuff and goes toe to toe with Nige for the right wing nut award - while an actual government minister says something crazy but true. The nuttiest project from the Tory years gets the High Court boot and the implications of that are big. Look out, Rosebank... We reflect on the good things Thatch…

In this one, we’ve got methane – a bit of a climate villain and another reason to ditch the cow. Right-wing nuts are back – Trump and his leading acolyte on this side of the pond, both vying for top spot. And vegan dogs and cats – who knew? Even vets admit they live longer, healthier lives. Green populism gets a run out in the US as a way to engage…

Our new season kicks off and we talk about the title, what it might have been and why it is what it is. We have Rishi and his 4 foot wooden spoon, a summer of Grid Faeries and the incredibly self unaware rantings of Reform in the House. The success of the latest renewable auction and the nuclear story behind that - plus our listeners are back with …

It’s been a crazy ride this series - blessed with an abundance of right wing nuts, we explored all manner of craziness, not least from Sunak and co (remember him? Nah us neither). The series spanned Dale’s time immersed in the summer of Just Stop Oil, the vital pivot to Just Stop the Tories (to de fang the right wing media) all the way up to our el…

LIVE from WOMAD - Dale really enjoyed the audience questions on this live session which was off the charts, just brilliant. Great questions, great discussion, wide ranging, free ranging really - and great fun. Made the day.Dale Vince

We close out our ‘Just Stop the Tories’ season, live from WOMAD (festival). With a drive-by look back at the origins of that phrase and its realisation - Labour’s mammoth win and rapid policy moves. We also explore ‘green on green,’ a phenomenon from the election that appears to have legs. Are Labour green, or are they not? We share anecdotes about…

The Tories have been stopped, Labour wastes no time, and we look at a bit of green-on-green action. Dale's feeling the pressure for a new name, NIMBYs in the firing line, and another eco-activist in the dock as we ask - why are the good guys getting banged up? Another temperature record, windmills with no gears, what has Ian learned in 5 years of d…

Crawling out of our post-Glasto, post-election black hole – we’re back, and the Tories have been stopped by a massive Labour win. We talk about lifting the onshore wind farm ban, banning bee-killing pesticides, and halting new oil and gas licenses, plus Moggy is out... The Tory party leader merry-go-round continues unabashed, and we need a new seas…

Giant Batteries, Bob Vylan, climate deniers and Dale’s multi stage tour - that’s just Glasto - we also cover the election (obvs), some bandwagon jumping and the latest from Hamasgate, with Guido in the dock.Dale Vince

This week, we're in a whirlwind of events. Dale's shares his excitement about the upcoming election, comparing it to a kid waiting for Christmas. He shares his experiences marching for nature with Chris Packham and Emma Thompson. We tackle the 'cow in the room' - the massive role animal agriculture plays in the nature and climate crisis. Plus, we d…

This week, we’ve got Newsnight behind the scenes, Reform’s not-manifesto, Farage being ‘stitched up’, and a GB News apology in the dead of night. While we run a calculator over Cameron’s infamous ‘cut the green crap’ period, there’s a new development on the popcorn front, and we look at the idea of vegan ghettos… all with a sprinkling of fab listen…

This week, Europe has outbreaks, but our right wing nut in the chair is from the unreformed party (it’s proper nutty). We talk elections as ‘Two Fleets’ Sunak launches the manifesto we all knew was coming, and we look at the $41 trillion the world just spent on the climate. We talk dangerous food, McDonald's, ice cream, and the four big industries …

Spoilt this week by an abundance of right-wing nuttery - headlined by Tice claiming ‘it was the sun wot did it.’ We try desperately not to mention Coutinho (and fail), but it was a Godzilla-sized solar farm that that did for us. We talk paratroopers with passports, part of Farage’s legacy, as he parachutes into the election (and Tice’s chair). This…

Giant Redwoods and little ones, green dystopias, and the white blokes wot did it – we've got a shed full of wing nuttery. We look at a stunning new viewpoint on green energy and ask how many Tory MPs have voted for positive climate action since Cameron the Husky Hugger... the answer may surprise you. New food stats suggest Brits are so over meat, a…

As Sunak fires the starting gun and Just Stop the Tories approaches the end game... we've got a bag of right-wing nuts, some China nonsense, and Dale talking meat taxes with The Sun. Staying on a food theme, we also look at Fish and Ships. All capped off with a weather update and punctuated by a fab selection of listener questions. You gotta love i…

"We have a new headline act in the right wing nut box this week and a support act nobody ever heard of. And then there’s Right Said Fred. We ask that favourite question of all right wingers and climate procrastinators - ‘what about India?' We put ourselves in the shoes of vegans with smelly meat eating neighbours, have a quick look at Great British…

In this week's jam packed episode our right wing nut section threatens to takeover as we revisit Moggy gate and update on a slew of legal actions that, one by one - are being lost. We welcome a Labour MP to the fold and introduce a new jingle - the tumbleweed... Green energy makes big strides towards the global takeover we all need, April offers mo…

This week kicks off with our fave - the right wingnuts… There’s a legal update and we talk about Rees-Mogg, the posh man’s Julia Hartley-Brewer, and his claims so wildly untrue they’re almost laughable - we fact check him, hard (and yes, it riles Dale up...). The Welsh Government plans to clamp down on exactly this kind of thing - making it illegal…

Several overlapping Right-Wing Nut stories this week, a reform candidate that makes Julia Hartley-Brewer look like Mother Theresa, wind energy in Britain kicks butt on the grid, the EU exits a very bad deal (but stays on the hook) - we have a new study on food, questions about Taylor Swift's footprint - and we ask does the SNP have a self-destruct …
