Redare mai Târziu Redare mai Târziu Liste Like PlăcutOne of the challenges facing all of concerned citizens is where and how to find accurate and reliable news. This week Amanda is joined by Elizabeth Segran, Senior Staff Writer at Fast Company Magazine. They tackle some very important questions about news, media, and how we can determine what is fact, fiction, or something in-between: How can we tell the difference between editorial/opinion pieces and news reporting? Is it dangerous for people to get their “news” solely from social media? Is there a “Hippocratic oath” for journalists? What are the processes journalists and news organizations follow for verifying that information is factual? How have budget cuts (and a shift in the entire media industry in the digital era) impacted how fast news is reported? Has it changed what it is covered? How can we fact check the things we see online? Also, Amanda introduces REDUCE, REFUSE, RESIST, an economic protest (and new way of life) for all of us that begins in March. "Inside the State Department’s Weapons Pipeline to Israel," Brett Murphy, ProPublica. Join the conversation on the Clotheshorse Slack! Sign up here!

Have you struggled with these feelings? It's called doomerism and you're not wrong for feeling that way. In this week's episode, Amanda talks all about doomerism (and how to fight it off): Amanda shares what she learned on her desert road trip in search of optimism, with stops at National Parks and more than one geodesic domes. She will share her advice (gained through experience and lots of reading about this topic) for saving yourself from doomerism, while also building up your strength and energy to keep fighting the good fight. And she'll talk about why she is staying on social media.

Redare mai Târziu Redare mai Târziu Liste Like PlăcutIn the final episode of 2024, Amanda is inspired by a conversation with her friend Janelle to explore board games that teach children (and adults) the “winner takes all” aspect of late stage capitalism and/or reinforce the message that success=stuff. We’ll take a journey through the history of board games, with a deep dive into the Game of Life. We’ll check out the shopping focused games of the 1980s and 90s, including Mall Madness. We will touch on some other games that just seem agonizing for adults to play, like Payday (too real). And we’ll explore the origin story of Monopoly, along with all of the other games that (accidentally or otherwise) seem to reinforce dumb ideas like the bootstrap myth. Amanda also talks about what a "no buy year" means to her (and somehow ties into board games, because why not). This episode also includes an audio essay from Eleisha of SHIFT, a refillery in Narberth, PA.

What is the positive social impact of normalizing body diversity in fashion and media? Are there really ethically made clothes in larger sizes somewhere out there in the world? How can we build a more inclusive, stronger community via events? What does a more sustainable, inclusive fashion industry look like? And are deer really just forest ponies? Also, Amanda talks about the fashion industry's approach to just about everything (including inclusivity) feels so tired and antiquated. And why she is optimistic about the future of slow fashion in 2025. This episode gets started with an audio essay from Sarah of Summa Salts.

Redare mai Târziu Redare mai Târziu Liste Like PlăcutAmanda is joined by Sushmita, the person behind Ethical Fat Fashion , the "coolest fat positive fashion newsletter amplifying ethical size diverse brands.” In this episode--recorded in a karaoke room in Tokyo--Amanda and Sushmita discuss the following: “Sustainable fashion” has an inclusivity problem. Meaning: it still focuses on thin, white, young, wealthier cis-gendered women. Why is that still the case, years into the sustainability movement in fashion? How can we change that? I always feel like I am part of a growing diverse community of primarily working class people, yet I still see many brands and organizations continuing to focus on the same thin/white/young/rich people. Why is it important for slow fashion to be a movement/community for everyone? Conversations about cost are particularly difficult because we know that the prices of ultra fast fashion are only possible because the clothes are low quality and someone suffered to make them. Fast fashion has warped our sense of value and how much clothing should cost. How do we untangle that? And how is skipping fast fashion an issue of class solidarity? The societal expectation around how much clothing we should have has changed drastically over the years, especially during the fast fashion era. And so we think we need a lot of clothes that are inexpensive, rather than a lot less clothing at a higher price. Sushimita will share her thoughts on that and how we change our perception of value and the quantity of clothing we own. Also: Why we should shop from small brands, debunking the myth that there are no sustainable brands that make larger sizes, and so much more! This episode gets started with a small business audio episode from Lisa of Top Stitch Mending . And Amanda wraps up the episode discussing how the recent election here in the United States has her thinking about the power of community and communication.
