David Attenborough

Up there, some say, were the three Davids.

Attenborough, Dimbleby and Olusoga.

Wow.

The suspense is killing me.

It is a disturbance in the force.

The thing called the polar vortex traps the coldest air on Earth over the North Pole, a place that only penguins and the people from the David Attenborough show who filmed them go to.

but the polar vortex has weakened and is now threatening to bring colder weather to parts of Europe and North America.

Oh, no.

Don't be rude, says Anand from Auckland.

Which is not too far away to have you on a list, Anand.

And David Bigginhill says, may I be among the first of several hundred to say that since Wednesday night, our new leader of the free world is lame duck à l'orange.

Lame duck a la roche, Donny.

We had to make the times work where like time zones were a big part of it.

But the director intention I said to him was like, can you give me sort of like a David Attenborough story? type of voice.

And what I did is I showed him David Attenborough's earlier movies where he used to do documentaries about Indigenous people and the way he talked about us in ways that were very, like, dehumanising and...

It's like othering, you know? Imagine him talking about...

The way he talks about, like, Galapagos turtles or something, but he's talking about other human beings, right? To me, you can sort of hear that, I think, in Len Vile's performance where it's this idea of...

I think we might have talked about doing that.

Now, David has just sent me a note.

He's been checking the calendar.

Next Friday is November the 13th, and he has gone through his calendar and discovered that there won't be another Friday the 13th outside the football season because continuous call teams on on the Friday nights until late 2028.

So we won't be able to do our broadcast from Rookwood Cemetery for a couple of years.

Well, I think David's obviously got a lot of time on his hands if he's found that information.

It's incredible.

He may have used AI.

I love audiobooks.

Because the audiobook on Game of Thrones is David Attenborough.

Oh my gosh, that's perfect.

Yeah, it's great.

And then

read the rest.

So I audio booked one, but it's like, it's David Attenborough.

Yeah, so it's...

Thanks Thought Bubble! So after that rocky journey, 47 units or so of radiant energy gets through to the ground as a combination of direct radiation that doesn't get absorbed, scattered, or reflected, and diffuse radiation that got scattered briefly but still makes it through the atmosphere.

As my personal hero David Attenborough might say, that 47% is just enough for life on our planet.

Any more and the surface might be too hot for life, like Mercury.

Any less and it would be too cold for life as we know it.

Also founded the Good Vibe Tribe and the Brotherhood of Eternal Smoke, amongst other titles, as well as your master of ceremonies for tonight's festivities and show and debauchery that will ensue.

First off, David Attenborough, 100-year-old British voiceover legend, still talking about my wiener, two words.

Suck it.

All right, that's it.
