Todd McGowan & Ryan Engley of the Why Theory podcast joined us for a discussion of the complicated personal and theoretical relationships between Jacques Lacan and Felix Guattari.  There is the backdrop of the broad implications of theories of the unconscious and capitalism.

Todd McGowan & Ryan Engley - Guattari Avec Lacan

On last week’s episode we discussed the recent strike by workers organizing with Doughnut Workers United at Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland during the recent heat wave.  This week we were lucky enough to be able to interview one of the workers illegally fired in retaliation for that strike.  We discuss the general conditions at Voodoo Doughnuts, the tactics used by management to combat the union drive, and how the company tried to justify its firing of workers for a legally protected strike action over unsafe work conditions.

EP 58 - Doughnut Workers United Interview

We start this week with a quick check-in on rideshare drivers in NYC, hotel workers in Boston, and nurses in North Carolina and Michigan. For our first major story, letter carriers across the country in the NALC are organizing a national vote no campaign in response to a concessionary contract. We continue coverage of workers under attack for speaking out against the genocide in Palestine, from universities across the country, to the ACLU, to Microsoft. A recent report from Bloomberg described shocking working conditions at EV-maker Rivian's Illinois factory. Finally, Boeing workers rejected the company's latest offer and continue their fight for fair wages and a just retirement.
