Hi, it's me. American University doesn't want me to be able to vote in the decision to unionize because they'll win if enough people can't vote. Want to let them know how you feel about that? @AmericanU @WeMakeWAMU #WeMakeWAMU

.@mjsimonson is an essential part of the @1a team. How do we know this? Matthew transforms the best parts of the 1A live show into the podcast episodes that tens of thousands of people download and listen to. the1a.org/person/matthew-sim…

I'm part of efforts to form a union @wamu885 because no workplace is complete without one. Our work is valuable, as is the amount of our time we put into it. More worker power equals a better work life for everyone. Thank you @WeMakeWAMU @sagaftra

I produced today's new ep of @rangeandslope about a historical mystery I stumbled over last year. It turned into a story about how we tell our stories, and what it means when we can't. I hope you take the time to listen on a walk around your neighborhood rangeandslope.com/ep-9-left-…

Today I made my debut (on mic, at least) on @kunc's Colorado Edition. Listen to hear a little bit about how the #coronavirus pandemic is affecting people experiencing homelessness on the Front Range.
Today's show is out now. @raedear1, who has been helping with the production of the show over the last few weeks, joined us to explain how Colorado's homeless population is grappling with the #coronavirus pandemic. Worth a listen.

He's right, you know. Listeners of @rangeandslope have reported a 50% increase in quality of soul improvements.
Replying to @brofax
Also, everyone go listen to the entire "Oh My God" album by Kevin Morby + the whole back catalog of the @rangeandslope podcast during isolation. They're good for the soul.
Our latest episode of @rangeandslope is a great listen. Check it out and tell a friend!
Happy Leap Day! We had a much-needed extra day this month to finish up Episode 8. Our latest story, The Candidate, dropped this morning. Listen to it at: rangeandslope.com or apple.co/2kjBZbx or bit.ly/2kJBt6M or wherever you like to podcast.
Personal/professional news: I am now the podcast editor for NPR's @1a ! Give it a listen if you don't already!

Please help save an adorable little kid with an extremely rare genetic disease. Maxwell's mom is one of the most inspiring people I've ever met, facing an unfathomable reality. Read more about her amazing story here: gofundme.com/f/slc6a1-connec…

Today I was reading an article and mixed up Marilyn Monroe with Marilyn Manson for a few minutes. "Wait he died?? When? 'Sex symbol'? Uhhh If you say so"
