Episode 167: They Died For Your Chicken Dinner; Populist Roars Across Montana


The Working Life Podcast with Jonathan Tasini
It’s pretty likely that when you cut into a nice juicy roast chicken at home or in a restaurant a worker in some poultry processing plant was injured cutting up that chicken into commercial pieces. And in some cases, it’s even worse: in January, two workers in poultry plants were killed in the space of a little over a week. I talk about their deaths and the brutal working conditions in poultry plants with national safety and health expert Debbie Berkowitz.

Then, Tom Winter, a progressive populist, joins me to talk about his race to win the congressional seat in Montana—it’s a conversation about how to win in so-called “red” areas with progressive ideas.
