Welcome to the 27th episode of “The Real Finds Podcast,” where we venture into the humorous yet crucial realm of climate comedy with the ever-dynamic Ethan Brown.
Ethan, best known for his witty commentary on “The Sweaty Penguin Podcast,” masterfully combines levity with profound insights into environmental issues.

Furthermore, Ethan elucidates on the surge in climate-induced anxiety among Gen Z, particularly after exposure to climate-centric content on social media platforms. This offers a deeper understanding of the emotional nuances and driving forces behind the younger generation’s engagement with climate change issues.
