Utilizing his skills as a master storyteller, the show chronicles Fox’s experiences as a first responder during 9/11, the fracking wars, the relentless smear campaigns against climate scientists, the BP oil spill, hurricane Sandy, the sweat lodges of Standing Rock, the catastrophic heating of our planet, the 2016 election and so much more.

Throughout, he examines the downward trajectory of our democracy, the dark forces that influence our political process and the data collection on all of us by social media, government agencies and others. To address these concerns he stresses smart citizen action and participation in government, especially through voting

After Fox’s Ithaca performance he takes his show to New York City, where it will be filmed by HBO. Then he hits the road to battleground states and performs until the election.
