Hey, this is Durey. Welcome to Potsy of the People. In this episode, it's me, Sam, Kaya,

DR, as usual talking about the news that you probably didn't hear in this last week,

but that you should know. And then I sit down with Mary Kate Henry, the president of the S.E.I.U,

one of the largest unions in the country, to talk about union work, what's ahead,

and things that we should be paying attention to. Let's go. It feels like the weeks are just

going by, and I will say I'm not going to lie. I was happy that I was not in town during July

4th, and I skipped the fireworks because I can only imagine that it sounded like a battalion

outside, and I saw videos, and it just seemed like the fireworks were endless. How was this whole

moment this last weekend for you all? You know, this weekend was a pretty chill for me.

Ariel and I just stayed in, we didn't go out and see fireworks or any of that. We ordered

from the boil in New York, which is like this incredible place where they have like the garlic,

crab, and you know, they had like crab legs and stuff, which was like the first time I've had that

in a really long time because of, I don't know, quarantine has just been forever.

Did it come in one of those bags, like a plastic bag? Yeah, yeah, yeah, so it came in the plastic bag.

I put that in like a big tray, like an aluminum tray, put it in the oven, it was delicious. Like,

you know, something where quarantine has just been since late February I've been in quarantine,

so I went to Dallas once, but other than that really have stayed home, and I just forgot about like

all of these aspects of New York City that I've come to love. I've just haven't been able to

go to like restaurants have been closed, everything's been closed, but this was like a good reminder

of like what's out there, and that I need to go outside at some point. And I hope that they can

continue to get things under control in New York. It seems like the only place left that is sort of

getting better still while everywhere else seems to be descending into further chaos. So
