I gave a lecture a couple of weeks ago at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies in Monterey to a climate policy class. I made a Climate Chat program about the first half of the lecture, which covered the latest climate science from James Hansen and others.  I think this program will be of interest to the DKos community.

Subjects include the recent acceleration in the warming rate due to new shipping rules that reduced the amount of sulfur emissions from ships, why an AMOC collapse might happen much sooner than the IPCC says, why the Equilibrium Climate Sensitivity is much higher than the IPCC assumes, and other lighthearted fare.

I do in-depth interviews and occasional presentations every Sunday at 10am Pacific Time.  Let me know if you think I should post about these programs on DKos.
