Farewell for Now, but Not for Long

The final Thinking CAP podcast revisits Daniella and Ed's discussion with AFSCME President Lee Saunders about the labor movement

Like with any good project, it takes a team to reach the finish line. For two seasons, the Center for American Progress has published this weekly podcast in hopes of encouraging its listeners to think about the world a little differently and sharing perspectives that can help foster a more inclusive society. From former producer Sally Tucker and original hosts Michele Jawando and Igor Volsky to supervising producer Rachel Rosen, season two producer Kyle Epstein, and researcher Chris Ford, making this podcast has been an exceptional ride. This week, we bring this part of the journey to a close by revisiting an interview Daniella and Ed recorded with American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) President Lee Saunders, in which he discussed the state of the labor movement in the United States.

Be sure to follow Daniella and Ed on Twitter for news about their future projects; we hope you come along for the ride.
