Crumbl Cookies with Mary Jane Gibson and Mike Glazer

"Crumbl Cookies with Mary Jane Gibson and Mike Glazer" is Episode 394 of *Doughboys*, hosted by Nick Wiger and Mike Mitchell. "Crumbl Cookies with Jane Gibson and Mike Glazer" was released on April 20, 2023.

## Synopsis

Mary Jane Gibson and Mike Glazer (*Weed and Grub*) join the 'boys to discuss cannabis, seafood, and Newfoundland before celebrating the holidaze with a review of Crumbl Cookies. Plus, another edition of Snack or Wack.

## Nick's intro

$57,854: that was the fine leveled by the Department of Labor against America’s fastest-growing cookie chain for dozens of violations of child labor laws. With estimated annual revenue of $12.7 billion, the penalty against the Utah-based confectionery didn’t even qualify as a slap on the wrist.

And it represents a troubling trend in the food-service industry: with American labor power ascending for the first time since the blight of Reaganism, and successful unionization efforts affecting chain restaurants in particular, corporations and their enablers have sought out fresh meat to grind in the gears of capitalism in the form of children. In 2022, Burger King, McDonald’s, Popeyes, and Subway were all fined for illegally employing children in dangerous or after-hours roles, and the problem is even worse up the supply chain, where vulnerable immigrant children are increasingly employed as farm laborers and at meatpacking plants.

So today, a growing wave of red states are addressing these egregious breaches — by repealing child-labor laws.

Arkansas Governor and Wario’s Princess Peach, Sarah Huckabee Sanders proudly signed a law rolling back her state’s child labor laws this year, and Iowa’s state senate recently pulled an all-night session to pass a bill allowing children to work longer and later hours, as well as serve alcohol. But as protections for children in the workplace seem to be eroding, a practice that will no doubt be further enabled by an activist right-wing judiciary, progress has at least been made on a different social issue: marijuana.

In the late 1990s, led by the 'live and let smoke' left coast, America began decriminalizing medical marijuana, state by state. In 2012, after Washington and Colorado legalized recreational marijuana, other states swiftly followed their lead — and as of today, pot is fully legal in twenty-one states. And when you contract the munchies after sparking a spliff of sticky-icky purchased from a storefront dispensary, you can satisfy your cravings with some sweet treats from one of the now 400 locations of the cookie bakery that’s taken TikTok by storm.

Just know your order may have been prepared by small hands.

This week, on a special 4/20 edition of *Doughboys*, buddy… Crumbl Cookies.
