Amazon: The Union Fight, a Rat Problem, and the Beginning of Phase Two
What’s it like to build a media platform from the inside of a warehouse while also fighting for a union? John Malmborg kicks off Phase Two of Malmborg Report with a direct update on where things are headed (and why.)
From Amazon’s union-busting to a rodent infestation that sparked a whistleblower-style campaign, John explores the absurd and all-too-real conditions behind the scenes at his New York facility. He breaks down the shift to a biweekly podcast cadence, why YouTube is becoming the platform’s central hub, and how creative flexibility fits into the broader mission. This episode is about adapting the show without losing its core, making meaning from strange conditions, and continuing to tell the truth even when the truth sounds surreal.
