  • Unbalanced

    A podcast about how employers can tear apart and derail much needed advances for workers. Are you getting scared employers? Hard to swallow that fact that workers might have a voice in the workplace, be free from retaliation for asserting the right to take sick leave for themselves and their families? Too much to bear?

  • The False Narrative of Vote-by-Mail Fraud

    This show continues to push the big Trump Lie! Mail balloting is not a new idea; it was already deeply embedded in the American electoral system before the coronavirus hit. In the last two federal elections, roughly one out of every four Americans cast a mail ballot. In five states — Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Utah, and Washington — mail balloting has been the primary method of voting. In 28 additional states, all voters have had the right to vote by mail. Since 2000 more than 250 million votes h... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Inside Scoop: What Does GC Carey Anticipate, and How Is It Affecting Board Processes and Decisions
Q: How might the deferral to arbitration affect disputes that come to you?
Deferral to arbitration continues to be used when a CBA provides an arbitration path; the NLRB defers to the grievance process and then reviews the outcome for consistency with standards, helping move matters faster.
The Inside Scoop: What Does GC Carey Anticipate, and How Is It Affecting Board Processes and Decisions
Q: What practical impact are you seeing from the delay in getting a full board and a new GC in place?
Backlogs persist across regions due to staffing gaps, with cases being reallocated between regions to manage workloads; overall, decisions are slower and patience is required as the board and regions normalize.
Momentum Shift from Union Friendly Continues at NLRB, Part 1
Q: You mentioned something about a supermajority. Tell us a little bit more about what the historic practice has been of the board before it overturns precedent?
Historically, the board required three votes to overturn precedent, serving as a guardrail against rapid, unilateral rewrites of established law, and this practice has generally persisted even as personnel and politics shift.
NLRB Changes in 2026: People and Policy, Part 1
Q: How might the changes affect management and union dynamics in ongoing campaigns?
Employers may see a more predictable process with less expansion of remedies and a greater emphasis on progressing cases through standard procedures, while unions may need to adapt to a board that is less inclined to broad, sweeping remedies and more focused on predictable outcomes.
NLRB Changes in 2026: People and Policy, Part 1
Q: What immediate changes are anticipated from the new NLRB leadership in 2026?
The guests anticipate a recalibration rather than an abrupt overhaul, with a potential slowdown or narrowing of aggressive remedies and a reversion to more traditional enforcement priorities, building on but adjusting the policy groundwork laid by the prior administration.
