Friday, 6 February, 2026
This week on Labor Radio Podcast Weekly: The Heartland Labor Forum examines the stunning decision to shut down the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette just hours after workers won their case at the U.S. Supreme Court, with NewsGuild–CWA president John Schleuss on what comes next. The Power Line Podcast goes inside the substation with Arizona Public Service electricians Juan Huerta and Beau Tubbs, exploring high-risk work, accountability, and what it takes to stay safe where everything connects. On the Green and Red Podcast, hosts revisit the 1960 Greensboro sit-ins, the rise of SNCC, and the lessons mass direct action still holds today. Labor Jawn features songwriter Mindy Mary on Striking at King’s, a new labor song inspired by a 1938 Pennsylvania farmworkers’ strike—and why its message still resonates. On the Labor Heritage Power Hour, we feature one of the powerful medleys from the Labor Heritage Foundation’s Songs for Minneapolis YouTube playlist, responding in music to recent ICE killings. Bonus track: Labor History in 2:00 looks back at the 1919 Seattle General Strike, when tens of thousands of workers shut down a city and briefly ran it themselves. Plus, in Shows You Should Know, quick highlights from Alan on Labor, Union Talk, Apple Box Talks, The Union Labor Advisory Network Podcast, and Labor Radio on KBOO.
