    Ep 244 - Everything Happens So Much

    We're still drinking from the firehose of labor news this week with another massive episode. We start with some headlines on AI in healthcare, a class action lawsuit against Apple, and follow ups with DC restaurant workers, Indian Samsung workers, and Teamsters at CostCo. In our first main story we check in on the imminent union vote at the RDU1 Amazon warehouse in Garner, NC. Workers are fighting back against the billionaire's assault on workers both at the federal and the local level, we run down some of the efforts. Once again we were so lucky to be joined by C Moline to discuss the recent rejection of the proposed contract by Letter Carriers around the country. Finally, we close celebrating the major victory by workers at Whole Foods in Philadelphia, who won the first union at the company with the UFCW.

    Ep 243 - Opposing CompanyCo

    Petition Supporting Monterey Bay Aquarium Workers: https://mbaworkersunited.org/community-letter-support We have a supersized episode this week, with so much going on we could barely cover everything. We start with an extended headline segment covering developments in Palestine, Canada, Pakistan, Las Vegas, Milwaukee, Chicago, and Monterey Bay. We were also lucky this week to be joined for a short interview with Claudia Irizarry Aponte, investigative journalist for The City, to discuss her recent investigation of unions in the home health care industry in NYC. Trump started his second turn with a flurry of attacks on workers, we discuss some of the ways unions like AFGE and the CTU are fighting back. We discuss an unusual area for us this week, fine dining, as workers at 5 of the swankiest restaurants in Washington DC are unionizing. Amazon went scorched earth on Canadian workers this week, shuttering its entire operations in Quebec rather than bargain with  its workers. Finally, despite its friendly reputation, Costco is playing hardball at the bargaining table, which may force 18,000 Teamsters to strike this week!

After our headlines, we discuss how the government of the Bahamas used legal repression to crush a planned two day nationwide strike before it happened. Then we discuss a recent exposé in The City by friend of the show Claudia Irizarry Aponte on a "union" for home health workers that does more for the bosses than for its members. Also this week, we've got two stories on wage theft, union busting, and retaliation by Geo Group against immigrants detained in its privately operated concentration camps. Finally, we discuss a recent Labor Notes piece sharing the lessons from union struggles to defend immigrant workers across the country and how our unions can defend our fellow workers.

    Ep 241 - Chariots of Fire

    We're fully into the new year and bosses are doing all sorts of new horrors. We start with updates from the UFW, the Utah Ski Patrol, CIR-SEIU, NYU, and Amazon. In our first major story, the ILA have reached an agreement on a new deal just a week ahead of a new shutdown of East Coast ports. Next, in a major shift in the labor landscape, the SEIU have rejoined the AFL-CIO after 20 years independent. As fires ravaged Los Angeles this week, companies sent their workers into the smoke with no regard for human life. Thousands of doctors, nurses, and other caregivers have hit the picket lines in Oregon's largest healthcare strike ever. Finally, the UAW have filed for another massive union vote in the South this week, this time to represent battery plant workers in Kentucky at BlueOval SK.

    Ep 240 - An Avalanche of Struggle

    It's our first episode of the new year, so let's ring it in with some class struggle! We start with some headlines on workers at Amazon, Starbucks, Milk-Bone, VW, Hilton Hotels, and the University of Southern California. For our first full story we discuss a recent investigation by The Guardian into the appalling conditions faced by the migrant workers who produce Champagne. Next, ski patrol workers in Park City, Utah are on strike at the country's biggest resort company. Mental health workers at Kaiser Permanente have been on strike since October, the latest group of workers fighting criminal understaffing in the US healthcare system. Speaking of nurses, we discuss recent analysis by People's Dispatch on the way imperialism forces many nurses in Brazil to migrate to the West. Finally, we discuss reports of a potential neutrality agreement between the UAW and Rivian.

    Special Episode - 2024 Year In Review

    Its our final show of the year, and we take a look back on the major union victories, industrial actions, and trends in labor that characterized 2024. Millions of workers took to the streets in opposition to the US-Israeli genocide in Palestine, which looks to shape labor relations on campus in 2025. Worker organizing has surged since 2020, and we look back on all the violence unleashed by the supposedly democratic West against worker mobilization this year. Perhaps no single business is as emblematic of the modern US economy as Amazon, and this year the Teamsters unified the struggle to organize workers there and took it to the next level. As our society becomes more and more unequal, more workers who used to be self-employed professionals: doctors, lawyers, and highly compensated tech workers, have been forced to organize. This year also saw a new level of corporate attacks on the NLRB, portending a major struggle over workers rights in the second Trump Administration. Finally, it  wouldn't be a year end show without some predictions, so we take a stab at our thoughts on the year to come. Happy New Year!

    Ep 239 - Merry Strikemas!

    OKC Starbucks Strike Fund: https://x.com/okcsbxunited/status/1870138429184348290?s=46 One of the last weeks of the year has turned out to be one of the biggest weeks for labor too! Workers across the country at hotels, grocery co-ops, ski shops, and mushroom farms are fighting back this week as we discuss in our headlines. Next, our first main story covers the way gig work models are degrading healthcare and turning nursing into a nightmare. Workers at a critical lab that tests for bird flu in California are sounding the alarm on critically low staffing and unsustainable working conditions. The Teamsters launched the largest strike in Amazon's history this week, with pickets around the country and major walkouts at over half a dozen facilities. Starbucks workers also initiated a nationwide strike, hoping to force the company to finally agree to a fair contract. Finally, we close out discussing the longest strike by workers in Las Vegas' Culinary Union in nearly 25 years.

    Ep 238 - No Contract, No Work

    Amazon Teamster Strike Fund: https://www.amazonlaborunion.org/strike-fundraisingAmazon Teamster Support Petition: https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/demand-amazon-come-to-the-bargaining-table-2/ We start with some quick headlines from South Korea, The Netherlands, Canada, Mexico, and Colorado Springs. For our first main story we discuss the devastation created by this year's hurricanes and how workers are banding together to help folks survive. Next we head to Australia where workers at Woolworths recently won a strike against control of their lives by algorithms. The Canadian government stepped in once again this week to crush workers, this time forcing a halt to the Canada Post strike. We've got another update on the efforts by workers to fight against complicity in genocide, and the repression hurled at them by university administrations. Finally, in a major announcement, the Teamsters are done waiting around at Amazon and are ready to strike if the company doesn't come to the table.
