On this week’s edition of the Labor Radio Podcast Weekly: From Tucson to Melbourne to Vancouver, workers are rising up—and their stories are being told.

We start with Words and Work, where Bookmans employees in Arizona walk off the job, demanding movement at the bargaining table. “If they’re not going to make a motion,” one worker says, “we’re going to make a motion.”

On Working People, student hunger strikers at the University of Oregon connect their campus protest to the starvation crisis in Gaza, calling it not only physical destruction—but cultural erasure.

Down under, Stick Together brings us to a pastry factory in Melbourne, where bakery workers making muffins, donuts, and Australia’s famous Woolworths mud cakes go on strike for fair pay—and win a seat at the table through collective action.

From Roswell Hub, we explore what it means when your workplace relocates—sometimes a blessing, sometimes a life-altering burden—and what unions can do to protect workers when buildings close or operations shift.

And on On the Line, we travel back to WWII-era Vancouver, where women known as “conductor-ettes” defied gender roles—and unruly passengers—to keep the streetcars running while the men were at war.
