I totally agree with you that 350 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 3: that that Sesame Street should be a public service, and 351 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: yet the last hands in the world I would want 352 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 3: Sesame Street in is this current administration. So it's like, 353 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 3: oh cool, like Zaslob and Netflix are you know, they 354 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 3: look like the Knights and shining Armor compared to these people. 355 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 3: So it's just like, all right, well, don't you just 356 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 3: take care of it for a little while and then 357 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 3: hopefully you know, the government can yeah, if it ever 358 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 3: gets right again. Yeah, it's I mean, so it's run 359 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 3: by a nonprofit and the Sesame Street Workshop, and they 360 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 3: like laid off a bunch of employees last year. They 361 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 3: claimed it was due to the company's financial difficulties, but 362 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 3: it suspiciously happened immediately after more than two hundred employees 363 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 3: announced their plans to unionize. Like literally, they were having 364 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 3: a block party celebrating the unionization effort, and then they 365 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 3: were like like received an email it was like, hey, 366 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 3: we have a zoom meeting coming up that you should 367 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 3: come attend that I think like the subject line transition plan. 368 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 2: And then we're told. 369 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: That they were being laid out, like one hundred of them, 370 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: and yeah, so I don't know, maybe now that they're 371 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: flush with all that cash, they will hire the employees back. 372 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Sesame Street Workshop also has a rainy day 373 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: fund that reported net assets of four hundred and thirty 374 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: nine million dollars for the end of twenty twenty three, 375 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 1: and none of that was touched and instead they fired 376 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: hundreds of employees. But the good news is that despite 377 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, those efforts, Sesame Workshop were successful in certifying 378 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: their union a couple of weeks ago, voting seventy four 379 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: percent in favor of joining the ope i U Local 380 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: one fifty three.
