216- The Forest Silences Reverend Billy

About this episode

Reverend Billy explores the mysterious interruptions of a forest during a live show, questioning the relationship between humans and nature.

I was trying to set up a show inside a beautiful forest. I thought I was being a smart Environmentalist. Put the forest on the air. In the first few minutes of this Earth Riot the forest keeps stopping the show, without explanation. I feel myself being pulled to another part of the forest, who is pulling me. The forest leaves Savitri D and Neil Young alone... they don't get interrupted. When I'm in a new part of the forest I find my equipment works fine so I restart my cheerful welcoming remarks and then the wild kingdom pulls the plug again. Can a whole forest be a trickster? Can an ecosystem mess with a well-meaning human? Can the entire Earth be playing us for a fool?
