Send us a textEpisode 211He wasn't born a symbol. He didn't grow up dreaming of shaking up City Hall, or of becoming a voice for millions who'd been told to stay silent. Harvey Milk was a Navy veteran. A math teacher. A camera shop owner. And for much of his early life, he kept his identity tucked away—hidden from view, like so many others in his generation.But when he finally decided to live out loud, everything changed.San Francisco in the 1970s was bursting with color, chaos, and change. And Harvey—charismatic, cheeky, and fiercely determined—stepped into the political spotlight not just to win votes, but to give people hope.This is the story of how one man became the first openly gay elected official in California... and how his courage lit a fire that still burns today.Support the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.com

July 17 2025- Is There Any Limit To What City Hall Will Tolerate As Survival Crimes?

After our report in the Winnipeg Sun revealed that certain voices in the poverty industry promote downplaying property and other offences committed by homeless lawbreakers, a listener raised an important question:"Is there any limit to what City Hall will tolerate as survivalcrimes? "In Part 1 of Episode 35 we explore his concern, about the lax attitude of local authorities to thieves stripping copper they steal and store in riverbank encampments:"Being a tradesperson, I was once warned that cyanide is released when the vinyl wire casing is burned... Never mind air quality warnings about northern forest fires, how about neighbourhoods being warned when thieving scum are burning off wire and creating smoke that is thousands of times more toxic than that of burning trees?"That's a "survival crime" that poisons riverbank communities- yet it's been tolerated. 12.35 Part 2- A letter sent this week to Mayor Gillingham and City Councillors provides evidence of the ground-floor effects of "survival crimes" being tolerated by Winnipeg civic leaders. "Not-for-profits are redefining criminal behavior in ways that downplay the break-ins, thefts, and violence ourcommunity experiences daily. This is not sustainable. We are creating a climate where the most vulnerable: seniors, children, people with disabilities, and those struggling with addiction are at constant risk."Sent by the housing chair of the Point Douglas Residents Committee, it poses troubling questions about how taxpayers in he neighborhood are treated like third-class citizens as drug-fueled mayhem stalks them daily."I am frustrated and disheartened by the disparity in attention and response Point Douglas receives in terms of basic city maintenance and bylaw enforcement."In one example, a problematic property on a short connecting sidestreet couldn't be found by bylaw officers walking right past it. It's the only lot on the street. Another example is how a graffiti complaint puts callers in the position of interpreting the markings, a job that should be done by paid staff."311 then asked if the graffiti is hateful or threatening. I am not an expert in graffiti or gang symbols. Is this the standard? That graffiti is only actionable if it is explicitly hateful? Graffiti of any kind should be considered a livability violation no matter the content. It lowers property values, invites crime, and reinforces the broken window theory that neglect fosters further decline. "The total ineptitude towards the embattled area puts both the head of the Bylaw Division, Winston Yee, and Police Chief Gene Bowers on the spot- and they were both questioned directly in the email. Will they respond?It all makes her wonder if there's a hidden agenda because "This level of discrepancy sends a clear message about which communities matter... the lack of basic care and enforcement in Point Douglas is so persistent that it feels intentional. "Marty Gold brings all the details, including actionable items presented by the PDRC (don't tell Dan Lett). Hear our additional insight into the encampment-driven crisis facing residents east of Main Street. Gillingham, city councillors like Vivian Santos, and health authorities are ignoring them - because acting on it hurts the "harm reduction" reputation of the government-funded experts enabling these "survival crimes".

https://notesonfilm1.com/2025/07/16/thinking-aloud-about-film-delitto-damore-luigi-comencini-1974/ DELITTO D'AMORE (Luigi Comencini, 1974), also known as CRIME OF LOVE or SOMEWHERE BEYOND LOVE in English, is along with VOLTATI EUGENIO (1980), my favourite of the Comencini films shown at this year's Ritrovato in Bologna. Two factory workers fall in love. He's from a family of Anarchists from the North. She's an immigrant from South. They both live with their families but she's a woman so all her movements are monitored. They split up because she needs to be married in a Church whilst he can only consider City Hall. Factories spewing smoke is a constant background to the development of their romance. In the accompanying podcast Richard and I discuss: how it is a MARXIST romance in which two factory workers fall in love even as the factory spews poison all over them (one of the titles considered for the film was LOVE AND POISON); how rare it is for a political film to deploy such a delicate tone, a mixture of humour/romance/enchantment; the relative rarity of having working class workers depicted so lovingly and glamorously (by Guliano Gemma and Stefania Sandrelli). The film's been compared to LOVE STORY (Arthur Hiller, 1970) and also ALI, FEAR EATS THE SOUL (Fassbinder, 1974). We bring up Visconti's ROCCO E I SUOI FRATELLI (1960). None of the comparisons convey the humour, the romance, the enchantment that this very political film evokes. We hope we do in the podcast that follows:

The Wellington Mayoral race was supposed to be winding down into boring town. Tory went wild, had a tipsy whirlwind on Courtenay Place. A bit of booze, a bit of dine and dashing. It was salacious, it was scandalous. As stories of late-night escapades and unpaid bills and missed council meetings flooded the newspapers, the streets flooded, literally. Every time a scandal burst onto the front page of The Post, so did a pipe. It was as if Wellington's infrastructure were protesting the incompetence at City Hall. Poonamis. An onslaught of cycleways. Crime. And still no second Mount Victoria tunnel. It all came to a head, of course. Andrew Little entered the chat. Tory pulls out. And from here it was meant to get boring. You know in an action movie when all the crazy stuff happens, there's half an hour left on the clock, but the world's been saved by superhero XYZ? All the main cast is safe and well and life goes on happily ever after? That's where I thought we were with Wellington's Mayoral Race. Well, Wellington, you're getting a sequel – within the original. Mayoral candidate Ray Chung sent his colleagues an email, regaling them with a story a friend told him while he was out walking his dog. In it, he says, Tory Whanau had drug-fuelled tempestuous sex with a bunch of young guys. He also claims he was told that she had pendulous soft breasts. It's starting to smell a little bit like Ontario in Canada. Remember the mayor who was accused of smoking crack? Just scandal through a local election campaign. To get real for a minute, two things. One: Tory denies the story completely and utterly rejects it. Two: Ray sent this to three fellow councillors on their personal email addresses. So, it was a private email, he claims. And Ray reckons that one of those people has leaked it to Tory, who has leaked it to the press. So then you start to wonder, is one of Ray's former fellow council mates now turning on him, perhaps for political reasons? I don't know the answer to that question. All I really know is that Wellington, you need some popcorn because you're in for one hell of a tempestuous election campaign. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Burt Jones enters race for Georgia governor Lt. Gov. Burt Jones announced his 2026 Georgia gubernatorial bid, highlighting Republican-led achievements like economic growth, safer communities, and stronger schools. In his campaign video, Jones pledged to eliminate state income tax and combat fentanyl overdoses. A former state senator and UGA football co-captain, Jones emphasized his ties to Donald Trump, despite past investigations into the 2020 election. He joins Attorney General Chris Carr in the GOP primary, while Democrats like Keisha Lance Bottoms and Jason Esteves are also running. Georgia Democratic Chair Charlie Bailey criticized Jones’ leadership, citing issues like rural hospital closures and inequitable tax policies. STORY 2: Lilburn wants to keep millage rate the same, but that means a property tax increase Lilburn plans to maintain its 4.43 millage rate, but rising property values mean higher taxes for residents. Property taxes make up 27% of the city’s general fund. Public hearings on the rate are set for Friday at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., with a third on July 14 at 6 p.m., followed by a council vote at 7:30 p.m. at City Hall. Homeowners with a $278,600 property value and homestead exemption will see a $42.79 tax increase, while non-homestead properties of the same value will rise by $44.80. STORY 3: Backyard fire damages Duluth home over holiday weekend A Duluth family’s Fourth of July weekend turned chaotic when a fire broke out at their home on Bromley Rowe. Gwinnett County firefighters responded around 5:40 p.m. Saturday to find the blaze, which started accidentally near a fire pit, had spread from the backyard to the house. While no injuries were reported, the fire displaced five residents and caused significant damage, especially to the back of the home. Firefighters controlled the blaze within 20 minutes.

The city announced a temporary halt due to a "utility conflict" involving electrical infrastructure, delaying completion. However, Gwinnett County officials clarified the project is active, with coordination ongoing with Georgia Power to resolve utility issues. The county emphasized such coordination is routine for projects like this, which includes a full signal rebuild with new mast arms. No completion date has been set yet. STORY 5: Emory Morsberger stepping down as head of Gateway85 CID Emory Morsberger, executive director of Gateway85 CID, announced his resignation after 20 years of involvement, including serving as a board member and director since 2019. Morsberger, a key figure in multiple CIDs, highlighted Gateway85’s transformation of the Jimmy Carter Boulevard area from a struggling corridor to a thriving business hub. He praised the CID’s progress in improving curb appeal, reducing crime, and fostering innovation. While no end date or successor has been announced, Morsberger expressed confidence in the CID’s strong board and staff to continue its mission.

A long time CBC Radio stalwart has left the ranks of the Nahanni Fontaine fan club and has called for the NDP Government House Leader to resign her portfolio as Minister for Accessibility. Episode 32 has the details of Kim Wheeler's very personal analysis of Fontaine's twisted apology to the Deaf and hard of hearing community. Part 1- A recap of our most recent columns in the Winnipeg Sun: RBC abandons West End customers https://winnipegsun.com/opinion/columnists/gold-rbc-abandons-west-end-customersSt. Boniface Church threatened by bike lane getsunlikely champion (check the postscript below for late-breaking news about it)https://winnipegsun.com/opinion/columnists/gold-st-boniface-church-threatened-by-bike-lane-gets-unlikely-champion8.10 Part 2- Even before she entered politics, Nahanni Fontaine expressed prejudice towards white people and made excuses for aboriginal gang culture. As an NDP government advisor she demeaned domestic violence shelter supporters, and even after election to the Legislature, Fontaine concealed her name change for years until we uncovered it. Now she's exposed her nasty disposition after insulting an interpreter translating her speech to indigenous graduates, for daring to be in her line of sight.We set the scene of a government organized ceremony to celebrate the academic achievement of her indigenous 'sisters', and how APTN bravely told the public about Fontaine's post-speech tantrum about being "thrown off" because "the woman shouldn't have been on the stage."Hear the experience of a parent at the event who saw that the interpreter was removed after Fontaine's tirade: "When you disrespect the interpreter, you disrespect the Deaf community."After the APTN broadcast, the St. John's MLA gave an apology made up of word salad and BS. You'll hear how this isn't the first time Fontaine has claimed objectionable comments she was party to were somehow "private".18.00 Free Press columnist Dan Lett tried to help the embattled Fontaine off the hook, claiming demands for her to quit were coming only from the opposition PCs. Portraying her Families Minister portfolio in Wab Kinew's government as minor and her stint as being "low-key", Lett ignored her self-promoting TikTok branding and her ongoing support for Hamas and anti-Zionist canards. Lett called her remarks "ill-advised." But as Kim Wheeler pointed out, there was no advice involved. This was Fontaine, being herself. "The other side is calling the minister to account. And they should. It was behaviour unbecoming an MLA and the Minister Responsible for Accessibility. It is ableist. And if she is comfortable saying this at a public event, what does she say behind closed doors?"As the mother of a Deaf daughter, and friends with a similar family at the ceremony, Wheeler posted that "Nahanni Fontaine must be held to account. She should resign her portfolio as Minister Responsible for Accessibility."In front of the most favourable hometown crowd possible, Nahanni Fontaine couldn't keep her ego in check. We have all the details, with some additional insight. We know what Wade Williams would say.32.15 Part 3 - The Season Six campaign is closing in on $2000, as we drive towards the $10k target.Marty tells how you can contribute towards making sure the costs of being Your Voice are met so we can continue holding City Hall, the Manitoba NDP government, bureaucracies and institutions - and the local media - accountable to you, your family and your community.For more details or to send an E-Transfer- email martygoldlive@gmail.com*****Post production Postscript- Not so fast, Bike Lobby.We learned that St. Boniface Councillor Matt Allard has sent a letter to the Public Works committee asking for the 'Moving on Marion' project to be put on hold until he has a chance to ensure the Norwood Grove Biz, the Church at 380 Marion, and the area residents can have a proper say in the plan.

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, goes growth-busting with Dave Gardner, co-host of the GrowthBusters podcast, which is all about coming to terms with limits to growth (https://growthbusters.org) and producer of the documentary, GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth (http://www.growthbustersmovie.org/). Humankind has outgrown the planet, so we're exploring ways to recover from growth addition. We're here to help you come to terms with limits to growth. Whether it's lifestyle, science or politics, we dig into the more fascinating and hard-hitting aspects of sustainable living. It's all about ending our culture's love affair with “more,” which is not making us happier and is killing our planet. No half-hearted greenwashing here; we share the often brutal and sometimes joyful truth! Dave Gardner directed the documentary GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth, which Stanford Biologist Paul Ehrlich declared “could be the most important film ever made.” His co-host and daughter, Stephanie Gardner, earned her masters in environmental law and policy, and describes herself as a “sustainable energy nerd.” After 35 years as a professional filmmaker producing a PBS series and films for Fortune 500 companies like Coca-Cola USA and IBM, Dave Gardner decided to lend his media expertise to preserving and defending Mother Earth. He started researching sustainability to produce the 2011 documentary, GrowthBusters: Hooked on Growth. The tagline for that film was, “One man takes on City Hall, Wall Street, presidents and prime ministers, as he questions society's most fundamental beliefs about prosperity.” The film was honored by over a dozen film festivals around the world and was chosen Best Film in the Population Institute's 2013 Global Media Awards. His short film, Spaceship Earth Passenger Safety Briefing, was selected for inclusion in the 2015 Wild & Scenic Film Festival. Today, Dave co-hosts the GrowthBusters podcast after co-hosting The Overpopulation Podcast from 2015 to 2021. He also produced the 2015-2017 syndicated radio series and podcast, Conversation Earth. As if that's not enough, he also ran for U.S. President in 2024 with a “Dave the Planet” platform. As Dave puts it, “we face an ecological overshoot emergency that demands we stop making dead-planet decisions and start down a bright-future pathway."

Conceived as the most modern, humane incarceration facility the world had ever seen, New York's Blackwell's Island, site of a lunatic asylum, two prisons, an almshouse, and a number of hospitals, quickly became, in the words of a visiting Charles Dickens, "a lounging, listless madhouse." Digging through city records, newspaper articles, and archival reports, Stacy Horn tells a gripping narrative through the voices of the island's inhabitants. We also hear from the era's officials, reformers, and journalists, including the celebrated undercover reporter Nellie Bly. And we follow the extraordinary Reverend William Glenney French as he ministers to Blackwell's residents, battles the bureaucratic mazes of the Department of Correction and a corrupt City Hall, testifies at salacious trials, and in his diary wonders about man's inhumanity to his fellow man. Damnation Island: Poor, Sick, Mad and Criminal in 19th Century New York (Algonquin Books, 2019) shows how far we've come in caring for the least fortunate among us--and reminds us how much work still remains. Stacy Horn shows that in setting up institutions for the humane treatment of social outcasts, New York City was so quickly overwhelmed by the sheer numbers confined to the Insane Asylum, Workhouse, Almshouse, Penitentiary and Hospital, that what emerged was a veritable gulag on Blackwell's (now Roosevelt) Island. Based on a careful reading of both remarkably candid official documents detailing widespread suffering and accounts by the intrepid undercover reporter Nellie Bly and the socially prominent Josephine Shaw Lowell, we come to appreciate the long shadow of history cast over the city's remaining island of the damned—Rikers.

Gus T. Renegade details what he learned after enduring more than three weeks researching and learning on the plantation of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Primarily there to cover the Sade C. Robinson murder trial, where the White killer was convicted on all counts, Gus T. spent enough time in "Cream City" to investigate many aspects of the local System of White Supremacy. Gus will share highlights from his time at City Hall for the meeting on the police's acquisition of facial recognition technology. Many White people in opposition to this equipment pointed out that black males are most likely to be arrested in Milwaukee. Gus also visited 2 Racially Restricted Regions, found Jeffrey Dahmer's apartment and tracked down the location of the only acknowledged lynching in Milwaukee, George Marshall Clark. #ForSade INVEST in The C.O.W.S. - https://cash.app/$TheCOWS #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

Mayor Adams says, “This is Gotham… we need to be Batman.” Because if New York falls, what happens to the rest of the country? Special thanks to our sponsors! Support the brands that support us!
