I believe the answer is:

air-con

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'to be cool' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'show tory' is the wordplay.
'show' becomes 'air' (both can mean broadcast).
'tory' becomes 'con' (abbreviation for conservative).
'air'+'con'='AIR-CON'

'how' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
