A show is nothing without an engaging host. Ed “Flash” Ferenc has hosted America’s Work Force Union Podcast since 1998. The son of a union Steelworker, Flash understands the need to give the working class a voice, and from this idea, AWF Radio was born.
Since 1993, America’s Work Force Radio has been broadcasting its labor- friendly, pro-union message on the AM radio airwaves.
In the summer of 2020, AWF made the transition to expand the reach of the daily radio broadcast via the internet. The launch of America’s Work Force Union Podcast, became the only daily labor/union podcast available.
Since then, the number of subscribers and daily downloads has consistently grown, month over month, as more and more people realize they can hear interviews about local and national labor issues, union victories and other relevant conversations Monday through Friday, every week of the year.
