David’s Notes
1. 🎹 Do you like jazz? Are you a child of the 90s? Do you live in DC? If so, go watch my little brother’s jazz quintet cover 90s songs on Nov. 20! I’m so bummed I can’t go. Find tickets here.
2. 🗳️ One month ago, I covered the most important political race of 2025: the elections for Georgia Public Service Commission. I am delighted to say that Dems won both seats, by a margin larger than anyone predicted. One interesting addendum: there are more Georgia PSC elections next year.
If you haven’t listened to last week’s elections recap episode with Climate Cabinet, I highly suggest it:
So, there were some elections. How'd they go?
In this episode, I welcome back Caroline Spears from Climate Cabinet for a post-election debrief that, unlike last year’s, is full of good news. We explore how a slate of pro-climate candidates defied expectations in tough districts across the country, driven by a powerful backlash against the Trump administration.
3. 🗓️ Mark your calendars: December 7 is Volts’ 5th birthday! Should we do something?
4. 🎁 Speaking of which, it’s that time of year again: gift season. Recall that Volts is probably the only thing on Earth that’s stayed the same price since 2020 (beyond Costco’s rotisserie chicken).
