TMI 09/25/2020 – Carl Gibson Declares Second Civil War, Gov Evers Declares New Emergency, Wargaming Strategist Declares Dismay

Friend of TMI Carl Gibson joins us to discuss his piece at Free Chicken and Beer, entitled “Civil War II is Already Underway”, and how we need to fight to preserve the Union.

Then, we cover Governor Evers’ latest COVID-19 Emergency Order, and why it is we can’t seem to just cooperate to flatten the curve.

Finally, we discuss a piece from wargame designer (and military history buff) Mike Selinker that defines four possible outcomes of November’s Presidential election, and he agrees with Carl Gibson: it looks like civil war to him. All this and more on this episode of TMI for Friday, September 25th, 2020. Listen in for your Cure for the Common Media!

TMI 09/11/2020 – Sturgis and UW’s Common Thread, the Vanishing Scientific Journals, and Trump’s “Rage” with Woodward

When you think of the annual motorcycle rally in Sturgis, SD, you don’t usually make connections to the campus of UW Madison – but 2020 being what it is, there’s an unfortunate resemblance this time. We’ll go over that.

Then, there have been dozens of scientific journals that have disappeared in the last few years, causing potential research gaps of alarming proportions.

Finally, we have a selection of the recorded conversations Bob Woodward had with President Trump – recorded with Trump’s permission! – for Woodward’s book “Rage”, and they are damning. If you wanted to hear it for yourself, this is your chance! All this and more on TMI for Friday September 11th, 2020! Listen in for your Cure for the Common Media!
