TMI 10/18/2024 – Sharing Bernie Sanders’ Vision of Progress, A Review of Florida Reps Calling Climate a “False Emergency” in National Legislation, Two Science Breakthroughs, more

On TMI for October 18, 2024, we start off by going over a recent summary Bernie Sanders made of the political progress that we’ve seen here in the United States by examining the differences in the Democratic Party platforms from 2012 and 2024. A span of just twelve years provides truly encouraging contrasts that get lost sometimes when you are just fighting day after day to make things better.

Next we give you two “best of” segments, as Aldous’ voice just wasn’t having it for the time being. Of those, we first dive into how GOP Congressional Representatives listen to their Big Oil donors, calling the Climate Crisis a “false emergency” despite the hue and cry of their very constituents as they suffer from supercharged hurricanes. Finally, we go over two scientific breakthroughs: one on EV battery recycling, and one on discovering the chemical bindings of memory in the human brain. All this and more on TMI for Friday, October 18, 2024 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
