On this week's Labor History Today: We turn up the “today” in Labor History Today with a special edition focused on the historic, open-ended strike now underway at Starbucks. Nearly 2,000 union baristas at 95 stores in more than 65 cities have walked out — the boldest action yet in the Red Cup Rebellion — and we bring you the Labor Radio Podcast Weekly's roundup of how shows across the network are covering this fast-moving struggle. Hear frontline voices from Working People, Work Stoppage, We Rise Fighting, Labor Notes, and WBAI's What's Going On as baristas, organizers, and labor reporters break down understaffing, impossible time standards, corporate cup-writing mandates, community solidarity, and why workers are calling for a nationwide Starbucks boycott. Plus: a brand-new strike song from veteran labor troubadour David Rovics, and — at the end — a little bonus from the Labor Radio Podcast Weekly crew. No contract, no coffee. Tune in. Questions, comments, or suggestions are welcome, and to find out how you can be a part of Labor History Today, email us at LaborHistoryToday@gmail.com Labor History Today is produced by the Labor Heritage Foundation and the Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor. @WorkingPod @WorkStoppagePod @LaborNotes @stucknation#LaborRadioPod #History #WorkingClass #ClassStruggle @GeorgetownKILWP #LaborHistory @UMDMLA @ILLaborHistory @AFLCIO @StrikeHistory #LaborHistory @wrkclasshistory  

On this week's Labor Radio Podcast Weekly: Starbucks workers are fed up — and they're walking out. This week's show spotlights the escalating Red Cup Rebellion, with frontline stories from baristas, organizers, and labor leaders across the country. We begin on Working People, where Max Alvarez talks with veteran barista and organizer Michelle Eisen about the urgent new strike wave hitting Starbucks stores nationwide — why workers are walking out, what the company refuses to fix, and what's at stake for the movement. Then over on Work Stoppage, the team unpacks Starbucks Workers United's first open-ended strike — already underway in dozens of stores and growing — and the national call for a full boycott. On We Rise Fighting, Madison barista Joanna breaks down why Red Cup Day has become a flashpoint for worker action, highlighting the role of community care and solidarity in sustaining the fight. From the Labor Notes Podcast, baristas describe a workplace defined by speedups, dangerous understaffing, impossible time-standards, and corporate mandates that ignore the crisis on the shop floor — including the now-infamous “cup writing” rules. And on WBAI's What's Going On, Juliana Forlano joins Brooklyn baristas on the picket line, alongside AFT President Randi Weingarten and NY Assemblymember Claire Valdéz, rallying in solidarity with the nationwide rebellion. Plus: Dave Rovics' brand-new song No Contract, No Coffee and, on Shows You Should Know, The Wealthy Ironworker on politicians pushing “right-to-work”; From A To Arbitration with cold-weather tips for CCAs; Re:Work Radio on healing, UFCW, and the cannabis industry; Labor History Today on land reform, race, and early labor conflicts; Ted talks about AFT's organizing at BASIS charter schools on Words and Work; and we salute Concrete Gang's Gorilla on his retirement.
