126. THE FOUR DAY FUTURE: building a movement for shorter working hours

Hello! We love the four day week so much that - in a Reasons to be Cheerful first - we’re revisiting the idea. What are the lessons from how it went down in the election? And how we build a movement to make the four day week happen? Friend of the pod Andrew Barnes tells us why he’s travelling the world to promote it. Then Rachel Kay and Will Stronge discuss where we go next in the UK.AND we’re treating you to a preview of this week’s Cheerful Book Club with the wonderful Rachel Maddow!Subscribe to the Cheerful Book Club feed.
