This week on the show we are joined by actor, writer and environmental activist Sam Knights.  We learn about the early heady days of Extinction rebellion, the struggles of democracy in movements, how art and politics feed into each other, and the emotional richness that can be found.  We also look ahead at the fight to come in 2022 and the pitfalls of Adam Mckay's latest film, Don't Look Up.
