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 election campaign called Just Vote - and the actual election at which we did indeed Just Stop the Tories.  Not sure Season 6 can top that, but who knows.  Still needs a name btw……over to you.

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.

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 Tory MPs, public misconceptions on green energy, and the evolving role of protest. With a fabulous bunch of audience questions from the horse’s mouth...:)

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 doing this… and other fab listener questions. Our last episode of the season ends on a high as we look ahead to a live show at WOMAD and the Vegan Camp Out.

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 season title – coz the Tories have been stopped (worth saying twice). Also, we got Grid Faeries powering the Arcadia field at Glasto, and their next gig is Womad, where we'll record the final episode of this series – live onstage...:)

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.

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 dive into how Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites could mess with the Earth's ozone layer when they deorbit. All this with some cracking questions from our listeners...:)

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 listener questions.

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 that are literally licensed to kill us. And the pro-democracy campaign that tried to use the House of Commons to encourage voting - and got shut down by the cops.

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 time, he can only do good because the mission is ‘Just Stop the Tories.’ We look at Sunak repeating the mistakes of Cameron, and Dale reveals a new study that maps 'the cost of cutting the green crap.’ Plus, a new campaign - Just Vote. We have a tale of two sausages… and some great news for Piers Morgan, with fabulous listener questions indelibly written throughout…

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, and with fab listener contributions again, we're cooking. All this with just five weeks before this series, ‘Just Stop the Tories,’ comes to a natural end...:)

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 it...:)

"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 Energy and the new gas power station with a typo in its name - plus a couple of fabulous questions. You gotta love it."

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 more records but no new news and a new opinion poll offers a shocking outlook - from the worlds top climate boffins. Fab listener questions again and a hoot all round...:)  

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 for politicians to lie. Big Oil's lies are the stuff of legend, a new expose confirms. Meanwhile, climate change is not the end of the world, says Cambridge Prof, which Dale agrees… We also talk planes powered by sewage, and field some fab questions, not least about the Massive Attack gig, WOMAD, and the ‘Grid Faeries’. Send your Qs into zerocarbonista@ecotricity.co.uk

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 button.  Oh and some good news for climate protest  and some not so. Keep them fab questions coming.

We’ve enough Right-wing Nuts this week to whip up a decent bar snack - Dale gets a touch of PTSD from an encounter with Julia Hartley-Brewer and Ian fills us in on the latest stranger than fiction Tory MP. Beyond satire this crew. Meanwhile Dale has a new battle underway with Big Diamond. Biblical flooding in Dubai should concern us all, but not the climate deniers, they have a new theory and as always we’ve got great questions -  on heat pumps, football, birds and windmills... Keep 'em coming.

Thrill packed episode this one as Dale takes us through a fake Net Zero project the government has given permission for. With lawsuits flying in the right-wing nut space, we examine what on earth is going on in the water industry. Plus a look at global temperatures and positive feedback loops (not as good as it might sound), while M&S research shows the best way of stopping cows from burping and farting… Oh, and a bit of Brexit, punctured with a spot-on listener question.

From racist Reform party candidates to Tory sex scandals, we've got a no holds barred episode of Zerocarbonista. The hot topic this week is when is an apology not an apology? The answer is when it comes from a wig wearing, right-wing nut spreading lies about Dale.  Things get more serious when we learn about the 57 companies linked to 80% of greenhouse gas emissions. There’s yet another Brexit calamity… this time hurting farmers. Plus Dale explains the need to reform the tax laws written by rich people for rich people and why climate denial should be made illegal. Keep your fab questions coming in!

Rip-roaring episode this week as we take our usual irreverent look at the green and ungreen news of the week, featuring Brexit: the gift that keeps (not) giving, a new approach to wing nuts, more mud-slinging at Dale, what's threatening Easter eggs and - to our ability to think, free of criminal charges... punctuated as ever by fab questions.

It's been a very eventful week for Dale, as we look at Sunak’s dodgy donors, his mathematically challenged plan to burn more fossil fuels and we circle back to the costs of 'cutting the green crap’. Plus, we have some mind-blowing stats on warming oceans, more Right Wing Nuts popping up, and Dale talks about his recent book events for Manifesto.

Dale and Ian are in fine form this week tearing up Hunt’s budget and talking up Dale’s alternative green one - it’s pulled straight from the latest edition of Dale’s book Manifesto. Zerocarbonista bravely delves into the depths of Rishi Sunak’s state of mind and we learn about the poison linking bees, Brexit and erm…Piers Morgan - and a Labour ban. And we hear about something new you can buy in Tesco - WWF.

We answer more great questions ranging from the threat of AI and ultra processed foods to the House of Lords and our diet. Don’t you dare miss it.

Sunak reclaims the “Right Wing Nut” title, rather easily with last week’s stunts… mobs with tractors are ok apparently. Mexico City approaches “Day Zero” - the day 22 million people run out of water, and we look at the sheer madness of everything about Drax; granted billions in subsidies for burning rare Canadian forests - while claiming green credentials. Sunak searches for a “green messenger” that people will trust, clearly he has to go out of house for that. Musk gets a mention. And we answer more great questions (keep 'em coming) and discuss what's new in the third edition of Manifesto which is out next week.

Dale’s got a new nickname. It’s mega but what’s the significance? We discuss who’s rigging our legal system against climate activists in the midst of the hottest February ever recorded. Speaking of the Tories, there’s some double bluffing going on, and would a government department ever bury bad news for farmers? Plus Dale waxes lyrical on wind-powered oil tankers, and we get a green gas update. Keep those questions coming! 

Dale chats with a brand new Right Wing Nut this week, as a bombshell mega poll predicts Armageddon for the Tories at the next election. With the UK now in a recession, have Sunak’s five pledges vapourised? We talk EV charging apps, Veganuary hitting a new record, and why we need a new category to classify mega-hurricanes. Plus, we expose the true cost of “cutting the green crap” within housebuilding, why the Atlantic Ocean is nearing tipping point, and Dale’s favourite recent climate success story.
