John Oliver on the power grid for Cut Your Energy Costs Day

Happy National Cut Your Energy Costs Day! I first and last celebrated the day four years ago in Seth Meyers and John Oliver on coal and hawks for Cut Your Energy Costs Day and Save the Eagles Day. Today, I return to Last Week Tonight with John Oliver with The Power Grid to celebrate.

John Oliver discusses the current state of the nation’s power grid, why it needs fixing, and, of course, how fun balloons are.

That's quite the use of comedy in the service of urging Americans to upgrade our energy infrastructure for a more sustainable future. I approve.
