TMI 01/31/2025 – Clara Mattei Introduces Us to the Center for Heterodox Economics (CHE), The History of AIDS & How Big Pharma Kills for Profit, Obsolescence Was Invented to Make Billionaires, more

We are joined once again by Professor Clara Mattei, Director of the nascent Center for Heterodox Economics (CHE) at the University of Tulsa. CHE’s entire mission is formed around breaking the grip of the exploitative model of economics we are all too familiar with and finding a better path. Listen in to give the middle finger to Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand.

Then, we look at how the history of the AIDS epidemic is rife with examples of how Big Pharma places its unquenchable thirst for exorbitant profits far above any concern for the lives its wondrous medicines could save. Finally, Jessica Wildfire’s post at The Sentinel Intelligence tells how obsolescence was an idea purposefully put into place to ensure the profits kept rolling in – right to the top!

TMI 06/04/2021 – One Hundred Years After Tulsa Race Massacre a Memorial Retrospective on Black Wall Street, How Your Name Affects Your Personality, What If Trump Goes to Jail – and WILL He?

Monday, May 31, 2021 marked the 100th anniversary of one of the most horrible events in American History: the Tulsa Race Massacre. If you aren’t familiar, please listen in as we recount the history of the Greenwood District of Tulsa, called “Black Wall Street”, and how it was destroyed in one of the worst displays of hate in history. If you’ve ever wondered what upsets your fellow Americans so much when they get told there’s no reason to feel oppressed, this will clear that up, fast.

Next, we look into studies that show that how you are named affects how others treat you. More, how others treat you can have a lasting effect on how YOU see yourself! Finally, many of us are just waiting and hoping that Donald Trump’s MANY illegal moves will finally put him away for good, but ho likely is that to happen, and more interestingly… what will happen if it does?
