I did this story about a year ago. The man’s name is Dr. Alex Green, and he’s now 92 years old! He’s dedicated his entire life to science and has finally perfected a machine that converts waste into energy. The machine uses a conversion process, and the heat of the reaction gives off the energy, which is then stored. At the end of the conversion process, a charcoal substance (aka “bio-char”) is left over and used as fertilizer.
Of all of the stories I’ve ever done, I will never forget this one. It’s one of my earlier stories, so the production quality isn’t great (and I’m pretty sure I’m whispering throughout the entire stand-up), but Dr. Green is truly a dynamic and inspirational character. I am so glad I had the opportunity to see his creation in action. I hope you enjoy hearing his story as much as I enjoyed telling it.
