Two Podcasts from Volts

If you want to understand the new Inflation Reduction Act, listen to these two podcasts from Dave Roberts on Volts.

First, from August 3, his conversation with Leah Stokes and Jesse Jenkins about what the bill does and doesn't contain. It was recorded just before the bill passed the Senate. Stokes is a professor of political science at U.C. Santa Barbara and Jenkins is described as a Princeton professor and an energy modeler. (I follow Stokes on Twitter and she's one of the sanest voices out there.)

Second, from yesterday, Roberts in a monologue since he has tendonitis and can't write, talking to himself about the history of climate legislation in the U.S., how this current climate policy was developed, and what's good about it.

I'm going to go listen now.
