Episode 220 - SAG-AFTRA Reading
We've run a bit longer than normal this episode to fit in a Special Feature Presentation of labour organising in the Creative Industries (The ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America [WGA] and the Screen Actors Guild and American Federation of Television and Radio Artists [SAG-AFTRA]) alongside the usual fare of News and Jamie's Special Blend of Comments and Commentariats.

Rob has been cut down by management to deny us shade

For only 2 hours, James really dug deep. I could almost hear Rob slam the fuckin bottle down at whatever vineyard hostel he’s in while shouting “cunts” at every mention of cigar-tv-boss malfeasance. Spicy auto-correct needs to be considered official jargon in these contracts
Thanks Jorge. I'm planning to do a follow up episode next month on why the games industry sucks, using the SAG-AFTRA strikes as an entry point, so stay tuned... THE ABOVE STATEMENT IN NO WAY REPRESENTS ANY FORM OF GUARANTEE FROM PODCASTING IS PRAXIS, WHO SHOULD BE ASSUMED TO BE IDIOTS WHO CANNOT ORGANISE ANYTHING.
