Episode 19: Men's Roundtable Numba 2

Episode 23: From A to Satchel with Corey Walton

We get a chance to chat with Mr. A to Arbitration himself, Corey Walton. Corey is running for NALC EVP on the Concerned Letter Carriers slate in the upcoming election. We discuss some of the current bills in congress, how we could improve the way the NALC handles politics, and whatever other topics pop up along the way. There's too much to discuss for just one episode, so we look forward to welcoming Corey back for round 2 in the future.  Sidenote: Don't forget to check out our Joliet Slammers event coming up July 23rd. We are raising money for IPALC, which is basically the Letter Carrier Political Fund for Illinois. Hope to see you there!

We managed to sneak in an interview with Mike Caref again, and we came prepared with more questions specifically about his plans for better organizing how the NALC fights for legislation benefitting letter carriers. Don't forget! You can also find information about his platform and more by searching Caref4prez on social media platforms, or you can check out his website caref4prez.org The Joliet Slammers game will be coming up before you know it!
