Will Rogers, the American icon from Oklahoma said: “There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.” This Sunday we’ll offer one of those from the middle category.

David Schechter, the impresario of the program Verify Road Trip, takes skeptical people along on his reporting trips so they can ask questions, see what he sees, and come to their own conclusions. Schechter is the winner of a 2021 duPont-Columbia Silver Baton, a two-time winner of the national Murrow Award for documentary, three-time Scripps Howard National Journalism Award winner, recipient of the Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Political Reporting, and a James Beard Award Finalist. Verify Road Trip is a production of WFAA-TV in Dallas, TX and TEGNA Media.
In this episode, Schechter invites Justin, a 38-year-old Dallas roofing contractor and dyed-in-the-wool climate-change unbeliever, to join him in a boots-on-the-ground investigation of the science behind climate change. Come along for a 35-minute road trip around Texas and then on to Alaska, in “Climate Truth: What We Know and How We Know It,” https://verifytv.squarespace.com/roadtrips/brine-jcn2e. It’s a fascinating, thoroughly congenial, and enlightening journey.
We want to thank all our readers – including the skeptical ones – who have responded to our commentaries on climate change. Here’s the most recent one on the polar vortex, which recently slammed Texas and the Midwest. Here is that link again: https://www.cumber.com/cumberland-advisors-market-commentary-polar-vortex/.
