    Diablo Canyon’s Fate: California’s Nuclear Fight, Grid Reliability, and China’s Energy Strategy | The Nemeth Report Interview with Dr. Gene Nelson

    Dr. Gene Nelson, longtime advocate for keeping Diablo Canyon Power Plant open, joins Dr. Tammy Nemeth on The Nemeth Report podcast to discuss the high-stakes battle over California’s last nuclear plant. With the NRC having approved operation into the mid-2040s and Governor Newsom leaving further extension to the next administration, what happens if Diablo Canyon closes in 2030? We examine California’s reliability challenges, net-zero timelines, and the strategic contrast with China—drawing on insights from Michael Pillsbury’s Hundred-Year Marathon, Joseph Fournier’s analysis of coal as sovereign power, Patricia Adams on China’s climate diplomacy, and critiques of net-zero policies by Robert Bryce and others. Essential listening on energy security, nuclear power, and national competitiveness.

    Net-Zero Exposed: Challenging the Climate Catastrophe Narrative

    On this episode of The Nemeth Report Podcast, Dr. Tammy Nemeth interviews Michelle Stirling, the communications director of the Friends of Science Society on why net-zero policies lack scientific and economic foundation. The conversation explores the Friends of Science’s recent open letters to OSFI regarding climate scenario analysis, the collapse of the IPCC RCP 8.5 climate scenarios, energy literacy gaps, carbon markets, and the growing risks to Canadian privacy, prosperity, and financial institutions from net-zero.You can find the Friends of Science Society here: https://friendsofscience.org/On You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/user/FriendsofScienceOn Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FoSClimateEdOn X: https://x.com/FriendsOScience On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/friends-of-science-society/Here is a link to their most recent open letter to OSFI: https://blog.friendsofscience.org/2026/07/14/open-letter-no-scientific-or-economic-rationale-remains-for-net-zero-and-carbon-markets/And a link to an open letter regarding the group “Elbows Up for Climate”: https://blog.friendsofscience.org/2026/07/07/open-letter-re-elbows-up-for-climate-mayors-councillors-manifesto/You can follow The Nemeth Report on Substack: https://thenemethreport.substack.com/ Website: https://thenemethreport.com X: https://x.com/thenemethreport LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/t-nemeth-567110246 You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/@thenemethreport

    US Grid Crisis Exposed: Virtual Power Plants, Northeast Instability & Shorting the Grid | Meredith Angwin

    Is America’s electric grid on the brink? In this compelling conversation with Meredith Angwin, known as the “Electric Grandma” and author of the groundbreaking book Shorting the Grid , we dive deep into the hidden fragility of our power system. Meredith breaks down the growing instability in the US Northeast, why reliability margins are tightening, the real reasons behind emergency demand alerts, and how policy decisions, just-in-time natural gas, and intermittent renewables are creating serious risks. We also examine the hype versus reality around Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) — are they a genuine solution for grid pressure or just a clever distraction for bad policy choices? Topics covered:• Root causes of Northeast grid instability and recent heat wave alerts• Why adding net-zero electrification demand is risky on a fragile system• The promise and limitations of Virtual Power Plants• Lessons from Shorting the Grid on market failures and accountability• What needs to change for a reliable energy future • What people can do to advocate for change If you care about keeping the lights on, energy policy, or understanding the real challenges facing America’s grid, this episode is essential listening.

    Climate P*rn Exposed

    Kevin Mooney joins Dr. Tammy Nemeth to break down his explosive new book "Climate P*rn: How and Why Anti-Population Zealots Fabricate Science, while Targeting American Capitalism, Freedom, and Independence."In this eye-opening interview, Mooney exposes the networked ecosystem driving climate policy: activist groups like NRDC, think tanks (Rocky Mountain Institute, World Resources Institute), the Union of Concerned Scientists, influential journals like Nature, and climate finance tools that can starve energy companies of capital and insurance. Is "environmentalism" the same as "climate" activism? Why do climate activists want to save the sea smelt but are ok with whales dying near offshore wind turbinesWhat are the national security concerns with offshore wind? Tune in to find out the answers to these questions and a whole lot more!Discover how these efforts, often with concerning China ties, undermine American energy independence and national security while benefiting strategic competitors.🔥 Key Topics:• The "Climate P*rn" metaphor and its real-world damage• Fabricated science vs. observable data on CO2 and natural variability• Litigation, regulation, and the war on reliable energy• Foreign influence and uneven global rules• What Americans can do to push back for freedom and prosperityBuy the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Climate-Porn-Anti-Population-Capitalism-Independence/dp/B0GM67TN13 His recent article at Real Clear Energy: https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2026/06/04/a_quiet_rewrite_that_could_shape_a_thousand_climate_cases_1186602.htmlSubscribe for more unfiltered conversations on science, policy, and liberty.
