Podcast Report: Send Rollie an Easter Egg

From Climate Scepticism

BY MIKE DOMBROSKI

Rollie Williams is a comedian who has a masters degree in Climate Science and Policy. He has a YouTube channel called Climate Town. He puts out about one or two slick, very well made videos a month that are in a style like John Oliver, Steven Colbert and all the other late night hosts, Greg Gutfeld notwithstanding. He’s young, talented, glib and energetic. He also has a podcast called The Climate Denier’s Playbook with a cohost who actually worked on the Daily Show. His Twitter/X handle is @ClimateTown.

This is his latest video where he complains about oil companies financing pro fossil fuel books in children’s schools:

The Brainwashing Of America’s Children | Climate Town

He is particularly incensed by the Heartland Institute. He shows a page from the 2012 Heartland document release (with no mention of who or how). It shows a $75 K entry for school materials. The really interesting thing is at twenty six minutes. He says he will personally respond to any comment that uses the words “Easter egg”. Well I would certainly like a couple of responses from him so I posted a couple comments:

@mdombroski

1 second ago Easter egg! Wow, there’s a book called Petro Pete’s Big Bad Dream about how bad things would be if oil disappeared. Is there anything in it that’s not empirically true?


@mdombroski

0 seconds ago Easter egg. You show a Heartland document page from the cache of material Peter Gleick Stole. Is this from the document that he clearly forged as shown by Steven Mosher?

I’m eagerly awaiting his responses to me or anyone else who might have some pointed questions.

Note: I copied and pasted the two comments from the tab where I made the comments. The “1 second ago” in the first one links to the video with the comment highlighted. The “0 seconds ago” links to the video with the comment nowhere in sight.
