Off Menu supports #PODSTRIKE

2m

Off Menu is supporting the global climate strike on Friday 20th September, organised by Greta Thunberg and the UK Student Climate Network.


Young people have woken up much of the world with their powerful Fridays for Future school strikes for the climate. As we deal with devastating climate breakdown and hurtle towards dangerous tipping points, young people are calling on millions of us across the planet to disrupt business as usual by joining the global climate strikes on September 20, just ahead of a UN emergency climate summit, and again on September 27.


Together, we will sound the alarm and show our politicians that business as usual is no longer an option. The climate crisis won’t wait, so neither will we. Find out more at globalclimatestrike.net

Transcript

James, huge news from the world of off-menu and indeed the world of the world.

Yes.

Ever heard of the Royal Albert Hall?

I have.

We've done live shows there.

And guess what?

We're doing more live shows there next year.

Sure, a lot of them are sold out already.

But we thought, hey, throw these guys a bone.

Let's put on one final Royal Albert Hall show in that run.

The show will be on Monday, the 16th of March.

It's going to be a tasting menu, a returning guest coming back, receiving the menu of another previous guest.

Those shows have been a lot of fun.

We cannot wait to do them live.

Who will we pull out of our little magic bag?

You'll have to come along on the 16th of March to find out.

If I'm correct in thinking, presale tickets go on pre-sale on the 10th of September.

Pre-sale tickets are 10th of September at 10 a.m.

And then the general sale is 12th of September at 10 a.m.

So if you miss out on the pre-sale, don't forget general sale is only two days later.

The day in between is for reflecting.

Get your tickets from royalalberthall.com Hall.com or offmenupodcast.co.uk.

What?

No, we're just drawing people's attention to a very important thing that's happening on the 20th of September.

Oh, okay.

I'll just cancel the.

I did get a guest.

I'm going to cancel him right now.

What guest did you get?

Tarantino.

Oh, you've got Quentin Tarantino for today.

Yeah, he's gone now.

Well, good.

He can't come in because we've got more important things to talk about.

More pressing things, like the future of our planet, James.

Yes, that's much more important than Tamantino.

Now, as you all know, there's a lot of great things going on at the moment in terms of environmental issues and drawing attention to them.

And we want to be part of that, James.

Yes.

On the 20th of September, which is tomorrow,

there is a climate strike happening.

Young people are striking.

all over the world to draw attention to the fact we need to do something about climate change.

And it shouldn't just be young people.

It's the olds who have messed it up.

Exactly.

So us olds, I think we're part of the olds.

Absolutely.

We've got to help.

We've got to join in.

Now, you can learn more about it.

You can find the Facebook event for the climate strike.

You can go on to campaigncc.org to find out more about it.

And you can find your nearest strike event.

Yes, very important.

Greta Thunberg, baby.

Greta Thunberg.

Are you just going to keep saying Greta Thunberg?

She's an inspiration.

I love her.

She is so cool.

She's organised all this because all the olds didn't do it.

She's making it look so easy.

That's how embarrassing the whole thing is, guys.

And a lot of people out there, a lot of olds, are very embarrassed by the fact that someone else is having to do it for them.

And

it's really got up their noses.

Oh, it's really got up their noses, which makes a change from all the fumes and pollution getting up their noses.

Am I right?

That they've been farting out their entire lives.

So.

Include myself.

On the 20th of September, let's get up the olds' noses even more.

Friday, 20th of September, there is a global climate strike organised by Greta Thunberg and the UK Student Climate Network.
