News Brief: Most Popular Anti-Union Talking Points (And Why They're Bullshit)

Also I agree with Natalie I subscribe to support the show and I don't really notice which ones are patron only other than if you say it in the episode.

When I worked at Walmart as my first adult job, they used to tell us if a union came in then we wouldn't be able to help each other in other departments, like cashiers wouldn't be able to help out shelving or vice versa (which the floor associates might really really like, actually, since they spend so much time cashiering because Walmart operates under staffed on purpose). But anyway, I've always wondered about that and I was hoping it would be on your list...

personally I like patron only content but I mostly subscribe because you guys are really smart and give good info. I would rather have everything be public so I can share juicy bits

I gotta say that the percentage of CN listeners who are going to complain about you making something more accessible has got to be negligibly low. Also first

Yes! I beseech you to distribute it as an official SoundCloud link which could be used more easily on mass emails and texts! As a patron I don't care about the extra content, I just want to support y'all making media that is actually helpful for working people!

I get what you mean about offering Patron only content but I agree with MC that this would be an excellent episode to unlock. Would be really handy to be able to send this to people and be like "listen to this, it's only 20mins, and it will answer a lot of your questions"

its funny we debated unlocking it because it is a sort of PSA type thing but 90% of the time we don't lock patreon only stuff for similar reasons and we realize we've done a poor job actually offering our patrons exclusive content so we decided to start doing more Patreon only NB. So you can steal it i guess? you want to upload it to soundcloud? Or just share the mp3. Or if you think it's more effective for us to just post it I guess we can tomorrow.

Please! I can provide proof and would be happy to get you interviews with SBWU if interested!

!!! Can you please please unlock this episode! I'm an organizer on the Starbucks campaign in the Midwest and being able to send this to the workers would be EXTREMELY helpful!!!!
