Ride or Die

Climate Change and Other Small Talk

Though Win and his Grams are growing weary of life in a temporary camp, they never tire of each others' jokes. In a world of floods and fires, they are family, and Win will get his Grams to her lucky spot at bingo through hell and highwater.

Ride Or Die was written by Tara Beagan. Find the transcript here.

Climate Change and Other Small Talk is a worldwide tour for your ears - minus the carbon footprint and lost luggage. Audio dramas from 9 creative teams around the globe will entertain as well as explore our climate crisis. And maybe even what could get us out.
