01:29 In 2019, the Greenland ice sheet was experiencing its largest melt in recorded history: 200 billion tons of ice liquified into the ocean. When glacial ice melts, caving icebergs release sediments and particles into the seawater, initiating our ocean's food chain. Plankton feed on the sediment, krill eat plankton, and the humpback whales feed on the krill. This photograph is the result of w..

06:09 Just earlier this year, when I was back home in Australia, the craziest thing happened. The burned ash from the bushfires surrounding Sydney rained down on us on Bondi Beach. And worried about carbon emissions -- not viral transmissions -- we were already wearing masks. The air was so choked by a plume of smoke that was so big that it reached as far away as New Zealand. Then in the midst o..

07:01 It's a thing that worries me sometimes whenever you talk about creativity, because it can have this kind of feel that it's just nice, you know, or it's warm or it's something pleasant. It's not. It's vital. It's the way we heal each other. In singing our song, in telling our story, in inviting you to say, "Hey, listen to me, and I'll listen to you, " we're starting a dialogue. And when you..

05:24 I remember my stepbrother and I went to go see "Top Gun, " whatever year that came out. And I remember we walked out of the mall, it was, like, blazing hot, I just looked at him, and we both felt that movie just like a calling from God. You know? Just ... But completely differently. Like, I wanted to be an actor. I was like, I've got to make something that makes people feel. I just want to..

My great grandmother, Della Hall Walker Green, on her deathbed, she wrote this little biography in the hospital, and it was only about 36 pages long, and she spent about five pages on the one time she did costumes for a play. Her first husband got, like, a paragraph. Cotton farming, of which she did for 50 years, gets a mention. Five pages on doing these costumes. And I look -- my mom gave me on..

03:51 For me, it was really easy. I did my first professional play. I was 12 years old. I was in a play called "Saint Joan" by George Bernard Shaw at the McCarter Theatre, and -- boom! -- I was in love. My world just expanded. And that profession -- I'm almost 50 now -- that profession has never stopped giving back to me, and it gives back more and more, mostly, strangely, through the characters..

00:28 I was really into Allen Ginsberg, and I was reading his poetry, and I was reading -- he did a lot of interviews -- and one time, William F. Buckley had this television program called "Firing Line, " and Ginsberg went on there and sang a Hare Krishna song while playing the harmonium. And he got back to New York to all his intelligentsia friends, and they all told him, "Don't you know that e..

11:08 And, you know, there's a kind of logical fallacy that we all have where we expect the future to be an extension of the present. Like, people in the 1980s thought that the Soviet Union would still be around today. But the future is going to be much weirder than we could possibly dream of. But we can try. And I know that there are going to be scary, scary things, but there's also going to be..
