This week we explore the Canadian anti-vaxx "trucker convoy" protests, discuss what does and doesn't make an owner/operator petite bourgeoisie, cover the misdeeds at various Elon Musk-owned companies, labor news from Mexico to Mississippi, and the totally unbiased hiring of Biden's niece as a lobbyist for GM.
PS: Bryant used the wrong word for Roma people and is sorry.
