Description
Chris Garlock here, back with another special edition of the Labor Radio Podcast Weekly, live from the Labor Notes conference in Chicago. It’s late again, or, since it’s two o’clock Sunday morning, early. Like the Beatles said, it’s been a hard day’s…night.
Today we bring you another sound collage of the voices of activists at the Labor Notes conference. Let me paint you a quick picture of the scene: the Labor Radio Podcast Network set up a open studio in the vendor area, basically the lobby of the Hyatt Regency, where everyone else is hawking labor books, shirts, buttons, literature and the like. So when they come to us they’re kind of curious, but not exactly sure what this Labor Radio Podcast Network thing is; so one of us explains the Network is this loose confederation of labor radio shows and podcasts, all working to bring out and raise up the issues and voices of working people. That sounds great, the people usually say; how’d you like to tell us about why you’re here, what you’re working on, we say. Almost no-one says no. And that’s why we have so many voices to share with you. Hope you enjoy.
Our interviews were conducted by members of the Labor Radio Podcast Network, including Lynn Fields from the Resolve podcast, Carmen Rodriguez, from El Cafecito del Dia, Jerry Mead Lucero, from Labor Express Radio, Mark Gevaart from My Labor Radio, Judy Ancel, from the Heartland Labor Forum, Harold Phillips, from Working to Live in Southwest Washington, and Patrick Dixon, co-producer here on the Labor Radio Podcast Weekly, Harold and Patrick co-produced today’s show.
