  • Physicists Debunk Net Zero: No Dangerous Warming from CO₂ - The Climate Realism Show #163
    Jun 30 2025

    Two of the most prestigious physicists in America have written a new paper explaining why greenhouse gases (GHG) produced by human activity — namely carbon dioxide — cannot cause dangerous warming on the planet. Based on their findings, Dr. Will Happer and Dr. Richard Lindzen urge Congress to repeal all Net Zero subsidies, all laws requiring GHG emission reductions, and all restrictions on fossil fuel development and infrastructure.

    Our special guest this week is Dr. Will Happer, who will break down how he and Dr. Lindzen reached this conclusion — and why continuing to push Net Zero without scientific justification is a recipe for economic disaster.

    On Episode #163 of The Climate Realism Show, Dr. Happer joins The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely to also cover the Crazy Climate News of the Week.

    📺 Join us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, and X — and drop your questions for Dr. Happer and the panel in the live chat!

  • Why don’t we have a health care reform bill yet?
    Jun 24 2025

    In this episode of the Heartland Daily Podcast, AnneMarie Schieber and economist Devon Herrick break down the latest health care debates in Washington. They discuss how promised reforms like Medicaid work requirements and health savings account expansions are being stripped from President Trump’s health care package, and what that means for patients and taxpayers. The conversation covers efforts to close costly Medicare Advantage loopholes, the push for site-neutral payments, and Minnesota’s controversial plan to incentivize Medicaid-funded home births. They also examine Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s overhaul of the federal vaccine advisory committee and the growing concern about political bias in mental health counseling. Finally, Devon explains why age — more than lifestyle choices — is the biggest risk factor for cancer.

  • Surviving the Coming Heat Wave (will be easy) – The Climate Realism Show #162
    Jun 20 2025

    The corporate climate-alarmist media is already turning up the heat—on your TV, not outside—by hyping a summer warm spell as a “heat dome” threatening “dangerous heat and humidity” across much of America next week. Yes, it’s going to be hot. It’s summer. But the data tell a different story: there’s no long-term trend showing an increase in the number or intensity of heat waves. And despite what they claim, carbon dioxide emissions don’t drive heat waves. That’s not to say human activity isn’t warming the planet—but not in the way they’re shouting from the rooftops. We’ll lay it all out.

    In episode 162 of The Climate Realism Show, we’ll give you the facts you need to counter the inevitable media panic surrounding next week’s forecast. Plus, we’ve got a loaded slate of Crazy Climate News: U.S. residential solar is on the brink, the so-called carbon fingerprint just got smeared, and Philadelphia’s electric bus fleet is going up in flames—literally. You’ll want to hear all of it.

    Tune in LIVE at 1 p.m. ET with Heartland’s Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, and Jim Lakely. We’ll answer your questions, tackle your comments, and call out the spin in real-time—streaming on YouTube, Rumble, and X.

  • Hurricane Season Preview with guest Stan Goldenberg – The Climate Realism Show #161
    Jun 13 2025

    Hurricane season has begun, and while it’s quiet so far, what kind of year can we expect? The Heartland Institute welcomes back Stanley Goldenberg—one of America’s leading hurricane forecasters—to find out. We’ll also tackle the week’s Crazy Climate News: Greta Thunberg’s latest publicity stunt, a proposal to nuke the ocean floor for “carbon capture,” Trump pulling the plug on California’s EV mandate, and accusations that The Heartland Institute is “undermining EU climate rules.” You’re welcome.

  • Fiery But Mostly Astroturfed - In The Tank #498
    Jun 12 2025

    Riots are once again breaking out in California, all the way to Chicago and East coast cities. The National Guard is on the streets of LA to handle violent protests against ICE, and it seems there is evidence that these multi-day protests are anything but organic. Similar protests are planned around the country this weekend, attempting to counter a military showcase parade President Trump has planned for the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army. The media can't be trusted to cover it fairly, which leads to our next question: is the "knowledge" economy falling apart? The mainstream news media, academia, and scientific establishment are rapidly losing credibility in the eyes of the average person, and it may be well deserved.

    Turning our eyes abroad, Trump says he struck a deal with China on trade, we'll look at the good, the bad, and the ugly -- and the UK's Labour Party recently levied taxes that resulted very quickly in a nice demonstration of the Laffer Curve, ending in less government income rather than more.The Heartland Institute’s Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and S.T. Karnick will cover all of this and more on episode Episode #498 of the In the Tank Podcast.

  • Straight Talk: Climate Q&A Marathon with guest Chris Martz – The Climate Realism Show #160
    Jun 6 2025

    We get so many great questions in each episode of The Climate Realism Show that we decided to dedicate a whole episode to it. Well, all of it but our coverage of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, of course. UN Secretary-General António Guterres is calling (again) for the censorship of climate realists, another giant ship has been set ablaze and adrift by EVs, our atmosphere is getting “thirstier” (and that’s bad, of course), and a Florida TV weatherman is lying about not being able to predict hurricanes because of federal budget cuts.

    In Episode #160 of The Heartland Institute’s The Climate Realism Show, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, and Jim Lakely are joined by newly minted meteorologist Chris Martz, who has been driving alarmists crazy on social media for years.

    Join us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET every Friday on YouTube, Rumble, and X.

  • Climate Realism Gains Ground in Europe – Live from Budapest! - The Climate Realism Show #159
    May 30 2025

    The Heartland Institute and Heartland UK/Europe have been in Poland and Hungary this week, meeting with leaders of the conservative movement and top politicians. Opposition to Net Zero in Europe is real—and growing. Just a few years ago, even right-leaning public figures were reluctant to publicly oppose the Big Green agenda, and hardly ever spoke of it even in private conversations. Today, climate realism has become a main plank of center-right politics and policy.

    Heartland Institute President James Taylor and Heartland UK/Europe Director Lois Perry join the show LIVE from Budapest to report on this shift—and take your questions—at 1 p.m. ET.

    In Episode #159 of The Heartland Institute’s The Climate Realism Show, Anthony Watts, Linnea Lueken, H. Sterling Burnett, and Jim Lakely cover the rise of climate realism in Europe and the Crazy Climate News of the Week. That includes: an alarmist imploring us not to “shatter the climate,” climate clergy livestreaming their climate depression marathon, whether cows dream of electric grills, and the validity of a stack of Biden climate executive orders signed by autopen.

    Be sure to join the chat—we’ll show your comments and answer your questions!

  • The Big Beautiful Bill - In The Tank #497
    May 29 2025

    Join The Heartland Institute's Linnea Lueken, S.T. Karnick, and Jim Lakely as they dive into Episode 497 of the In The Tank Podcast. This episode explores timely and provocative topics, including the Democrats' ongoing quest to find their own version of podcast superstar Joe Rogan—can they cultivate a voice that resonates widely in the digital age?

    The team also discusses President Joe Biden's reliance on the autopen presidency. With Biden increasingly using automation and pre-scripted methods to fulfill presidential duties, what does this mean for transparency, authenticity, and public perception of leadership?

    Finally, they break down former President Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill." The hosts analyze its economic promises, potential impact on climate and energy policies, and how it stacks up against the Biden administration's previous legislation. Tune in for insightful discussion, sharp analysis, and engaging debate on today's critical issues.
