Hey so this episode was really good and it's getting great feedback from our usual listeners, but it has been criminally underlistened to. If you can listen to something in the background today, I would love for you to put this on. We put a lot of work into researching for it. youtu.be/umeomDs7_Jc

An underrated form of thrifting is when you challenge non-thrifers to thrift. For example, my husband's work needed 30 ramekins for a student cooking project, so he & a co-worker hit up every ReUse, thrift shop & church rummage sale they could, amassing a delightful & quirky assortment to serve in.

Marketing the Monster Has trans identity become a sales pitch?

Given that there’s probably less than 100 trans athletes total in both college and high school athletics— and that’s a big stretch, it shows how this administration relies on fear-mongering to make their way into the minds of their hateful, ignorant MAGA loyalists.

Thanks sm, Erin! fwiw, we also went with the cheapest with Beehiiv but ultimately found Ghost was better even if a little more expensive. There's a lot more wiggle room outside the "newsletter" category in Ghost... Beehiiv has yet to offer that.

Thanks! we didn't like Beehiiv because the UI isn't very intuitive. We couldn't do a lot of stuff we can with Ghost!!
