    Plastic (Guest: Priya Mittal, Co-Founder of the Fette Cup)

    A Solo cup's journey and Oldboy (Korean version).  Interview with Priya Mittal, co-founder of the Fette cup, a compostable and biodegradable alternative to the plastic party cup.  Over 3 million Boeing 757's worth of plastic deposited on the planet yearly.  Guess how many of the 7 plastic recycling categories are lies? (Spoiler alert, it's 5). My favorite continent: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Plastic's weirdly phallic origin story.
