TMI 09/13/2024 – Presidential Coverage Shows How Media and Government Both Disregard Climate and Trans Rights, How Deep Space Nine’s Bell Riots Would Fit in Our 2024, Three Science Breakthroughs, more

Watching the media cover the rise of Kamala Harris and her debate with Donald Trump this week shows how blatantly both the enormous issue of the Climate Crisis and the human rights issues surrounding gender are treated to nothing short of journalistic malpractice. We go over the reality of Harris’ climate positions (and the nightmarish alternative) and expose the hamfisted mishandling of her positions on trans rights.

On our first song break, we feature a new piece by Death Doula called The Witness, part of their upcoming full length release “Love Spells”, due out October 11, 2024.

Next, we take you on a look back at how a 29 year old episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was highly prescient to the current state of affairs in today’s world, as its characters found themselves in a version of 2024 that bore far too much resemblance to the one we are in now. Finally, we indulge our science geek side and go through three new breakthroughs: one on EV battery recycling, another on scientists learning how to better study a phenomenon that is too fast and small to normally witness which could lead to limitless energy, and finally one on discovering the chemical bindings of memory in the human brain. All this and more on TMI for Friday, September 13, 2024 (Friday the 13th!) – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

On today’s episode, we delve into the concerning reality of Donald Trump’s advanced age and growing health issues as he campaigns for a second term in the White House. Next, we expose the exploitative fees levied by MySchoolBucks, a payment processor that’s been profiting excessively from parents simply trying to ensure their children have lunch money. Finally, we discuss the Republican Party’s latest campaign strategy—a deeply transphobic ad campaign targeting Democratic Senators in key swing states—a strategy they cling to despite its history of failure to win at the ballot box.
