This week, we're learning about the #Landback movement, given that the Thanksgiving holiday has just passed. It's important to note that we are not professional journalists, and we do broad coverage over this topic, think of it as an overall introduction, intended for those who are curious but have never really looked into it. It's an all too important subject.

Finding research presenting an accurate portrayal of history on this subject is challenging. In the event that we failed to present an honest history, please reach out to [email protected] and we will be ecstatic to learn from you, and correct ourselves.

We're talking Wicked, and expectations. We're brushing up against holiday movies and Lindsay Lohan. We're talking Winnie Cooper and Dollywood. We're also learning about Sam's brief career stint in Agriscience - and we're learning horror stories from the HR department as found on Reddit!

No links in the show notes, everything is found on Reddit, go there and have a ball!

This week took some turns... It all started because Sam put himself on a budget. From trips to target and their monetary value - to job hunting in Australia (thank you to our Australian listeners!!!) to bear attacks in Colorado... We hope you commit to the bit!

The bear attack article can be found here: https://www.workingmanlaw.com/blog/workers-compensation-and-injury-info/workers-comp-bear-attack-at-work/

The Craigslist stuff can be found if you search Craigslist Jobs in Sydney Australia.

Honey, there's an app called Reddit and we are taking a deep dive into Reddit's werkplace horror stories. Also, Sam saw the Mariah Carey Christmas Show and you have to hear what it was like from his firsthand account tbh. The Hollywood Bowl has table service and convenient shuttles for arrival and departure. And while Sam still hates it there, he admits those are nice things.

There are no links this week, dive down the Reddit hole yourself, and see what all the fuss is about.

Earlier this year, we discussed what everyone's favorite grocery retailer is doing to eradicate worker's rights, and we dive deeper this week! We also learn the proper way to ... loan anyone money.

Halloween night. It's chilly, it's quiet, it gets dark early - the spirits come OUT. This week, we hear from you and the ways you have been haunted at work. From being stuck in a mortuary, after hours, to making physical contact with passed (or un-passed? entities) To working in a building that USED TO BE A MORTUARY BUT ISN'T ANYMORE (mortuaries are v haunt if you like haunt - get a job in a mortuary) to learning something about a motel room's past.

Welcome back to season 3, welcome back to work.

Please send ghost/haunting stories to [email protected], or on instagram to @themichelleoh or @sameverettbaker

We’ll be back in a couple of weeks - we cannot wait!

We hope you had a relaxing Labor Day (or a relaxing double paycheck). Thank you to labor unions and other organizers who have done so much to bring worker's rights -- if this podcast has taught us anything it's that we also, still, have so much more to do. Thank you, so so SO much for rolling with us!

A correction to this episode: In this episode, co-host Sam mentions Michelle McNamara’s death was due to a cancer illness and this is incorrect.
