  Michael and I talk about the different procedures and policies that exist at installations and stations around the country, and why answering questions from the mailbag might not be as easy as we originally thought. But we still do it, because we're here to help.

• Meet Our Supporters

  Michael Brasaemle went a little nuts and paid to send out a mailer to our entire branch for our election. He printed all the flyers at home, bought nearly 2000 stamps and 2000 envelopes, and came over to my house for an envelope stuffing party. We had quite a few people show up to help. On this episode, you get to meet some of those people, and hear their stories.

• Discussion with My Campaign Advisor Rich Vala

  UPDATE: I am running for vice president, instead of secretary. Ballots for the election in Branch 2502 are out NOW!It's been about a year since my lifelong friend Rich Vala has joined me on the podcast. It's also been about a year since my branch had its tainted election. On September 3, 2025, I accepted the nomination for Vice President for Branch 2502. Now, we need you to vote.

• Class Warfare and Diet COLAs

  This episode has two topics, which wind up being related. In the first half of the episode, I get on my soap box and talk about why we, as workers, need to unite across class. We are wrongly villainizing other poor and struggling people, when the real enemy are those hoarding ludicrous amounts of wealth at the top of the class structure. (To skip this part, go to around the 12:00 mark.)The second half of the episode talks about what our diet COLAs really are. Spoiler alert: we ALL only get about 55% of the actual cost of living. The rest is supposed to be covered by our general wage increases. Obviously that hasn't been happening, and that's why we've been falling further and further behind.
