Send us a textWhat's up to my curious clementines and tangential tangelos! Welcome back to the BNP y'all, and dang do I have an excellent episode on offer. Making their groundbreaking debut on Barbarian Noetics is Mikayla and Zoee of the Bitching and Wining podcast! Bitching and Wining is a comedy podcast out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, hosted by long time friends Mikayla and Zoee. Topics range far and wide from dating as a millennial, to dolphin people, to artisanal waxing, to yak fur and kangaroos, and everything in between! Mikayla and Zoee are an absolute delight to chat with and I'm excited to share this conversation with my BNP tribe. In this two-part conversation, we chat about how the girls met, how they decided to start a podcast and some of the karmic obstacles inherent in such an endeavor.  Then in the 2nd part of the talk, Mikayla  and Zoee share an inspiring story of how they joined with their local United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) chapter to unionize their workplace, a restaurant in their home town of Winnipeg. It's fascinating and instructive to hear the nuts and bolts of how they successfully executed their union drive and organized the union. Also instructive is the bonkers lengths the bosses at their restaurant went to attempt to prevent them from unionizing. You'll have to tune in to find out what happened once their union was affirmatively voted for and formed. Definitely subscribe to Bitching and Wining y'all! It's my go-to pod for when I need to lighten things up a bit from always talking about Joe Biden's hellish foreign policy or the decrepitude of the Earth's ecosystems.  Yikes. Sometimes we need a laugh, and Bitching and Wining delivers.  Also check them out on IG @ bitching.and.wining. Big thank you to Mikayla and Zoee for jumping on the pod and sharing some stories and some laughs with us. Crossover episode is coming soon where we flipped roles and I got to enjoy sitting back and answering questions as a guest on the Bitching and Wining pod.  Thank you for rating, reviewing and subscribing to the BNP wherever you listen to podcasts, and for spreading the word and telling a friend about the BNP- it's how we expand this tribe of philosopher-barbarians and un-fuck the world together!   Can haz patrons?
