Lets Talk... with ThisFunktional

Jesus Figueroa, @ThisFunktional of ThisFunktional.com, talks about mental health and the journey he has gone through.

This episode will come with a trigger warning because it is a sensitive topic.

With so much stigma around mental health issues, it is a difficult topic to talk about, but ThisFunktional talks about the What, When, Where, Why, and How of the journey of getting help for mental health issues.

Jesus Figueroa, ​⁠ of ThisFunktional.com, reviews BORDERLANDS, out in theaters now.

Lilith (Blanchett), an infamous bounty hunter with a mysterious past, reluctantly returns to her home, Pandora, the most chaotic planet in the galaxy. Her mission is to find the missing daughter of Atlas (Ramírez), the universe’s most powerful S.O.B. Lilith forms an unexpected alliance with a ragtag team of misfits – Roland (Hart), a seasoned mercenary on a mission; Tiny Tina (Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound protector; Tannis (Curtis), the oddball scientist who’s seen it all; and Claptrap (Black), a wiseass robot. Together, these unlikely heroes must battle an alien species and dangerous bandits to uncover one of Pandora’s most explosive secrets. The fate of the universe could be in their hands – but they’ll be fighting for something more: each other.Based on one of the best-selling videogame franchises of all time, welcome to BORDERLANDS.

 

Lionsgate presents, an Arad / Picturestart production, a Gearbox Studios / 2K production.

LET’S TALK… With ThisFunktional - Season 3 Episode 1 - Starting over

Moving away from the “talk show” style

Hoping this feels more natural and more of who I am

Starting over is okay

Give yourself permission to start over

Everyone is constantly intaking and processing new information how are we not going to evolve and change

I had thought long and hard about deleting my podcast

I logged in and found that there’s still people listening

Decided to find a way to make a podcast that I enjoyed

Different topics per episode — Serious topics, Light topics

Hopefully topics that impact you all

Hopefully I can inform

I won’t always have all of the answers but I am willing to listen and try to understand

What do y’all wanna talk about?

Alt goth/metal singer-songwriter Mordian talks with Jesus Figueroa, @ThisFunktional of ThisFunktional.com, about her single “January Moon,” available now. “January Moon,” is the new single from Alternative-Gothic artist Mordian. Produced by Evan Graham Dunn, it’s a haunting offering meant to carve the path for the next era of music; Mordian is eager to release more material after a period of rumination. “January Moon” follows her debut EP ‘Romance in Disguise’ which released in May 2019 and contains three distinctive sections which explore contrasting moods and atmospheres. Opening with serene entwining of vocal harmonies and clean guitar chords, this section has a personal feel with a strong uplifting atmosphere. Soulful vocals produce a beautiful sound before thundering into heavily distorted metal instrumentation and melodic elements. Emerging from the depths, the concluding passage brings a delicate melody performed on classical guitar with a haunting spoken narrative. Journeying through intense moods, the distinctive musical style of each part delivers its own powerful impact. Mordian’s overarching Gothic themes and ethereal sounds are certain to evoke a whole world of feelings within.

French filmmaker Ilana Navaro talks with Jesus Figueroa, @ThisFunktional of ThisFunktional.com, about her documentary feature film “Joséphine Baker: The Story of an Awakening,” streaming exclusively on Cinemoi Network beginning on October 29 7 p.m. PST/ 10 p.m. EST. World renowned performer, World War II spy, and activist are a few of the titles used to describe Josephine Baker, one of the most successful African American performers in French history. Viewers of the film will witness how Baker went from being a poor little black girl from Missouri to becoming the Queen of Paris, before joining the French Resistance and finally creating her dream family “The Rainbow Tribe”, adopting twelve children from the four corners of the world. Josephine Baker made three trips “back home” (1936, 1948, 1951), and each time she experienced everyday racism, despite her worldwide fame. Each tragic experience triggered her life-changing decisions. Gradually the battle for Civil Rights became her own, up until 1963, when she was the only woman who spoke on stage besides Martin Luther King during the famous March in Washington. From then on, she used her fame to serve her political utopia until the end of her life. This is the journey of a superstar’s awakening from the “banana dancer” to a humanist fighter. But can fame change the world? Cinémoi Network’s curated programming is available on Apple TV & Apple iOS, Sling TV, Comcast Xfinity, Verizon FiOS, Frontier, Google Play, and Samsung devices.
