Won’t miss him. He wrote a song/video making fun of the concept of global warming, treating anybody who takes it seriously as worth making fun of, thereby erasing all the goodwill I used to have for him. And this was relatively recently, too. He should have known better, but I guess he knows what would appeal to his audience.
