Corporate Control vs. Worker Power: Who Really Runs Your Job?
Workers are fighting back—and they’re proving that solidarity still matters.
AutoZone workers make history by unionizing with the UAW. Teamsters refuse to cross a Coca-Cola picket line. Starbucks continues battling its unionized workers in court and at the bargaining table. Meanwhile, nurses are warning that chronic understaffing and AI-driven scheduling are putting both workers and patients at risk.
These stories all point to the same question: Who should control the workplace—the corporations that own it, or the workers who actually do the work?

The Truth About the Economy They Won't Tell You
The economy may look fine on paper — but for millions of working people, it doesn’t feel that way.
Consumer confidence is falling as Americans struggle with high prices, expensive gas, housing costs and economic insecurity. Meanwhile, wealth continues to pile up in the financial and digital economy.
This segment examines oil prices, economic instability, debt, and rising food-pantry use in New York — and asks why an economy that keeps generating wealth leaves so many workers falling behind.

Trump vs. Big Tech: The Fight for the Future of Work
AI isn't just threatening jobs — it's changing who gets the chance to build a career in the first place.
Across the economy, entry-level hiring is weakening as companies use AI to perform the "grunt work" traditionally assigned to young workers. Computer science graduates are struggling to find jobs, Toyota is investing in hundreds of thousands of factory robots, and Amazon is expanding the use of technology to monitor and manage delivery workers.
This episode looks at AI, automation, entry-level jobs, workplace surveillance, robotics and the future of work — from a working-class perspective.
