Hello and welcome to another edition of my podcast, The Roundup.

Each week, I read you all my Substack content from the previous week in one quick episode - so you can catch up while driving, walking the dog, or cleaning your house!

Another Lost Decade for Workers

The rich world is heading for another lost decade of wage stagnation – unless workers figure out how to fight back.

The Artisanal Miners Powering our Green Future are being Dispossessed

Millions of informal workers endure unimaginable hardships to supply our critical minerals, yet they are blamed for the ‘dirty’ supply chains that exploit them.


That’s all from me this week - remember, if you want to listen to the podcast on your usual streaming app, you can listen on Patreon. If you’re already a paid Substack subscriber, just message me for free access to the Patreon channel :)

And if you’re thinking of becoming a paid subscriber but can’t afford it, DM me for a solidarity discount!

In solidarity,

Grace
