Chapter 1: What are the impacts of the hottest summer on record?

90.259 - 101.487 Lewis Black

And this isn't just your classic heat wave that only kills some old people that no one cares about. The heat is so extreme, it's causing shit that's never happened before.

Blazing temperatures outdoors can wreak havoc inside airplanes. These soda cans all exploded on Southwest flights due to extreme heat exposure. The problem is widespread. Southwest Airlines has reported about 20 employees have been injured by exploding soda cans this summer alone. What the hell?

123.343 - 159.401 Lewis Black

It's so hot that our soda cans are joining Al-Qaeda. I don't want to die in a plane crash because of Cherry Coke. I want to die because the Boeing guys forgot to tighten the screws. This is a disaster. What happens if planes have to get rid of soda? What am I supposed to drink on a flight now? Whiskey? Then another whiskey? What, am I supposed to mix the whiskey with another whiskey?

Now I haven't had enough. You've had enough! This is clearly a reckoning, but I'm sure Ewans will take this as a sign that climate change is a serious threat and not a chance for an idiotic photo op.

176.427 - 194.476 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

At Death Valley National Park, they actually embraced the heat, encouraging tourists to take pictures in front of the park's thermometer, right now hovering around 130 degrees. You can definitely feel the heat on your skin. Honestly, it's definitely shocking. I don't know how anything can survive out here.

195.501 - 216.372 Lewis Black

Of course, nothing can survive in Death Valley. That's why they call it Death Valley. Guess what they sell at Burger King, you idiot. Now, you'd think park rangers would be warning people about the deadly heat. But instead, they're getting in on the fun.

216.912 - 239.283 Unidentified Speaker (Brief Interjection)

park rangers have a tasty way to show you just how hot it is inside your car so rangers at sakuro national park by tucson made banana bread inside their car some other things you can make inside your car cookies eggs and even stuffed bell peppers who stuffs a bell pepper

240.575 - 267.481 Lewis Black

Yes, global warming means you can cook right in your car, which is great news for my new restaurant, Louis Black's Hyundai Sonata chimichangas. The secret ingredient is wiper fluid. So yes, as we've known for a while, every year the earth is getting hotter and hotter like me and Paul Rudd.

268.321 - 278.565 Lewis Black

And that's why we need every single government body working to fix the problem instead of jerking us around with elementary school science projects.
