TMI 01/08/2021 – How the Capitol Attack Reverberated Elsewhere, Does the Climate Have a Finite Pool of Worry, Google Gets a Union, and some Truths 2020 Left Us With

On today’s episode of TMI:

The attack on the Capitol Building, spurred by noneother than Donald Trump himself, was a day of disaster in DC, but had consequences that reached far further. A friend in Connecticut sends in her striking tale of how events that transpired for her that same day, many miles away, were phantoms of the brutal riot happening in Washington.

Next, we examine how a study over how concerned people are about the Climate Crisis was able to serendipitously discover if something as worrisome as the pandemic can crowd out Climate worry. It’s a test of the Finite Pool of Worry theory, be sure to listen in!

Then, Google has had a Union form within its ranks, but there’s something different and frankly revolutionary about it – find out what.

Finally, we see that 2020, harsh a year as it was, has left us with several gems of insight that we need to carry with us from now on. All that and more on TMI for Friday, January 8th, 2021 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

TMI 12/18/2020 – So Close to Peril, Mitch Can Be Ditched, How the Pandemic Wounds Society and the Season of Treason

On today’s TMI: While everyone was watching the Electoral College cast their votes, the Supreme Court of Wisconsin put themselves ONE VOTE AWAY from leading us into chaos. We discuss. Then: even IF the Democratic Party loses either (or both) Senate seats in the upcoming GA runoff election, there’s a way that Mitch McConnell could still be Majority Leader… and yet no longer be in the way of voting on key legislation. Next, we talk about the uneven burdens of the pandemic, specifically how the anemic federal stimulus has forced state and local governments to make cuts we are going to be dealing with long after we’re all safe from COVID-19. Finally, we see how 126 GOP Representatives could easily be seen as treasonous to the nation (if loyal to the President), and there’s a measure to stop them from being seated in January.

TMI 11/13/2020 – Steve Horn on Biden’s Climate, Shrooms Curing Depression, and Trump’s Dangerous Path Forward

On this episode of TMI, friend of the program Steve Horn joins us to discuss what President-elect Joe Biden’s history with climate related issues, and what to watch for as we focus on forcing his hand to help the planet. Then, we discuss how studies are showing that single doses of Psilocybin (“shrooms”) have an immediate and lasting effect on changing the brains of people who suffer from depression. Finally, we find Trump painted into a corner electorally, which means his only options left to retain power are pretty ugly.
