Hi Everyone! For the first time in what feels like forever, your wonderful hosts are recording without a guest to be seen. They discuss how the rally went, what we need to do next time, and question what it is going to take to get the membership out there screaming our battle cry.

Hey everyone! It is time for our second women's roundtable featuring our host, Cristal Czajkoski, Sarah Mae Hoerchler, Shay Benson, and Sarah Kurkowski. We all reflect on how we feel the rally on the February 22nd day of action. We also touch on the opening statement by President Renfroe on the beginning of negotiations.

We sit down and chat with our buddy, Scott Vana. We let the conversation lead where it may go, and we goof off just enough as per usual. Enjoy!

Just in case you missed it, we took a break from hosting and went on another fellow podcaster's show, Hot House with Richie Ray! Be sure to check out his show on Spotify. We had a great time talking about the Letter Carrier Political Fund and whatever random thoughts that came to mind.

We are joined by a CCA from Ken's home office as well as a CCA trained by Ken. We talk about their experience as a letter carrier so far, reminisce on the old days back when we were CCAs just starting out, and attempt to keep Ken's ego in check in this light-hearted episode.
