TMI 06/06/2025 – Preserving Worlds of Game Culture, Pride Flag and Celebration Bans Fought Nationwide, How Anger Must Be Kept in the Fight For Us All, more

Capitalism isn’t known for preserving culture, even that culture which was born from its offerings. This inspired Derek Murphy and Mitchell Zemil to create “Preserving Worlds” with Means TV, as both digital archaeology and cultural preservation, documenting not just the technical aspects of online virtual worlds built around games but the human communities and cultures that flourished within them. We discuss the series with them – listen in!

Next, we discover that from Florida Pride celebrants defying Governor DeSantis’ anti-LGBT laws to place in Montana, Utah and Idaho finding ways to re-legalize Pride Flags for their communities, there is a nationwide backlash against the attempt top erase the LGBTQ+ community. Finally, we take heed to Jessica Wildfire’s piece at The Sentinel Intelligence, where she warns of the danger of allowing only the elites to have anger in their arsenal. All this and more on TMI for Friday, June 6, 2025 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

TMI 05/09/2025 – Interview with Ricky Gaona, Documentary Filmmaker of Means TV’s “Parque Central”, Judge Quotes Shakespeare in Takedown of Trump, Gov. Evers Stands Up to ICE Czar Homan, more

Parque Central, exclusive to Means TV (means.tv), is a documentary about the sharp divides to be found in the day to day lives of those native to the Antigua, Guatemala area and the rich tourist-catering class that runs the city – Ricky Gaona comes to us to talk about his experiences in making such a visceral and vital look at how the need for money turns people into problems.

Next, we look at how Judge Beryl Howell used Shakespeare in permanently blocking Trump’s attempt to destroy law firm Perkins Coie and how that then stops Trump from doing the same to other lawyers who don’t agree with his edicts. Finally, we follow up on Governor Tony Evers’ memo on how to handle interactions with ICE agents, as Tom Homan, acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) threatened Evers with dire consequences over what was a perfectly legal statement by the Governor. Evers isn’t going to back down, and we let you hear it in his own words. All this and more on TMI for Friday, May 09, 2025 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
