In this episode, Shelby and Anton discuss the plans for a new binational electric vehicle corridor, America’s Import-Export Bank, and the repeal of protections for an endangered bat species.
 
Segment 1: Ready for a road trip? Shelby talks about the first-of-its-kind binational electric vehicle corridor (or highway) to be built across the US and Canada! The corridor will stretch from Kalamazoo, Michigan to Quebec City, Canada.

Segment 2: President Biden's campaign promise broken. Anton calls out the American Import-Export Bank for lending money to oil refineries overseas, despite President Biden’s pledge to stop federal government agencies from funding fossil fuel.

Segment 3: Someone shine the bat symbol! The Northern Long-eared Bat is in danger after the US Senate voted to remove a policy that one protected this species. This was voted in favor of the timber industry that claimed the bat protections were getting in the way of their profiting.
