MCJ Live Debuts Tonight on Clubhouse with Stripe Climate & Lowercarbon Capital

Join our live discussion on Clubhouse!

As we have teased in recent newsletters, we are pleased to be rolling out a new content medium today: MCJ Live!

The MCJ podcast is and will be a core staple of our content portfolio. However, the rise of Clubhouse as a platform for live discussion revealed to us that there is a fun and exciting opportunity to facilitate interactive conversations between guests and the broader MCJ Community. Further, this venue also feels like a good fit to tackle the deluge of breaking news that is happening in climate, that moves too quickly for our scheduled podcast calendar.

What is MCJ Live?

MCJ Live is a weekly show on Clubhouse that will enable us to offer our listeners a more interactive MCJ podcast experience. Additionally, it will provide a space to host guests who might be in the news in real-time, and other smaller breakout sessions we may host, specific to MCJ members.

Tonight’s Show

We’re debuting MCJ Live tonight (Thursday, February 11th) at 6pm PT/9pm ET. We’re thrilled to have Nan Ransohoff & Ryan Orbuch of the Stripe Climate team and Clay Dumas of Lowercarbon Capital as our first guests, all of whom have been prior guests on the MCJ pod. We plan on discussing the exciting climate news this week from each of these firms, as well as cover other interesting climate topics.

Stripe Climate announced today that it’s now available for businesses around the world and released a new RFP for carbon removal projects. 

Lowercarbon Capital released their new website, showcasing their wide portfolio of investments that includes Mosa Meats, Lilac, Running Tide, and more. Chris Sacca talked about the firm’s investment thesis and origins in his essay, “Act II”.  

Future Shows

Future weekly shows will be every Wednesday night at 6pm PT/9pm ET. In addition, we will host other shows out-of-cycle as relevant climate news arises, or as we convene smaller, more intimate members-only gatherings on the platform. 

How do I attend?

If you are on Clubhouse already, you can sign up for the event here. 

If you are not already on Clubhouse, we put a special invite link for MCJ members in Slack #General. You can also join the #mcj-live channel to chat with other listeners during the show and ask questions through Tyler and Sarah, who will be moderating.

Exclusive Content for MCJ Members 

The weekly shows will be available to all on Clubhouse. Anyone can ‘follow’ MCJ Live, to be notified when new shows are happening. Joining the club will only be open to paying MCJ members. We will likely be convening smaller, members only gatherings in this forum outside of the context of the weekly shows.

Want to become an MCJ Member? Join here.

We hope you enjoy this new format of engagement. It has the potential to be both content and connective tissue, and we are hugely excited about it. Like anything else we do, it is an experiment, and we will start small and evolve from there, based on what we learn along the way.

Hopefully see you tonight!
