Description
This is the 60th full length episode of Clotheshorse! This episode is full of action: The main event is the final installment of Amanda's conversation with Rebecca and Tia of Old Flame Mending. We’ll be talking about sewing machines (Rebecca has some good recommendations for you), Halloween costumes (Tia is an expert there) and their hopes for both the future of their business and the world as a whole! Also Gabriela Antonas calls in to debunk the myths about raising the minimum wage. Amanda talks about "Vegan Leather Gate" and the most successful greenwashing rebrand of all time. And why she will never use the term "vegan leather" again. Rita (aka Panty Witch) and Elise call the hotline to share their perspectives on faux leather and some other plastic greenwashing. Don't forget about your new hot Friday night date: our weekly IG Live Q+A session at 8 pm Eastern Time. Will Brenda attack Amanda again? How puffy will Amanda's sleeves be?
