Bernie Sanders Climate Democratic Party Donald Trump Episode Jeff Bezos Transgender Transphobia Washington Post WSUM

TMI 02/28/2025 – Earth’s Plants Are Full of Carbon, Rubio’s Rules for Visas to Based on Gender Are Full of Loopholes, Bernie Sanders is Full of Purpose, and Jeff Bezos is Full of… Himself

On today’s episode, we go over a recent report that Earth’s plants have hit the maximum amount of carbon that they want to take out of the atmosphere every year, which isn’t great considering we continue to increase the amount we are putting into it. Then, Secretary Rubio’s new rules for obtaining a visa into the United States that supposedly were to be aimed only at athletes, but are so full of holes that they could be applied to anyone who doesn’t happen to match their assigned gender at birth.

Next, the leadership we might be looking for out of the Democratic Party to oppose the machinations of the Trump regime are actually coming from Bernie Sanders and his National Tour to Fight Oligarchy. Finally, Jeff Bezos is says his new editorial policy at the Washington Post will censor pieces that go against what made him successful, because he IS America.

TMI 02/04/2022 – Wordle Wants to be Free, Reign of the Space Lords, More

From its origins just a few months ago until now, Wordle has become the simple little online game that took over many people’s Facebook newsfeeds and more – just in time for the New York Times to swoop in and buy it from Josh Wardle. Oh, the NYT promises it will remain free… for an introductory period. Mr. Wardle couldn’t rightly turn down the money thrown at him, but wonders why we can’t just have nice free things? Turns out you can – we explain how.

Then, once the domain of governmental achievement, the space race has become the realm of – and plaything of – the hyper-wealthy. These “space lords” all have flowery language to describe their visions of the future, but a quick look at their own past and present shows that we may not enjoy the actual outcomes that result from their designs. We discuss all this and much more on TMI for Friday, February 4, 2022 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
