Precious Plastic ♻
Plastic lasts nearly forever! That's its greatest strength and what makes it so vexing as trash- but a listener sent me a cool project with a new approach to reuse.

Makes your day 30% better
So much news lady is so depressing. Wow this is important to stay updated, it’s nice everyone’s allowed to catch a break and enjoy the good in the world. I have an automation set up that every morning this podcast plays. And it really is a great way to start the day off. I love this show and the best part is you can listen to anywhere. Even something as simple as recycled windmill turbines or paper ketchup bottles can really bring your day up. Great show 😊
Seriously needed this
First episode I heard was about the Lego set for LGBTQIA+ and it made me tear up. I really needed a reminder that not everything going on close to home is negative now, and not everyone is trying to erase one or more groups of people.
The host talks a bit slow for me, but this could be for the sake of inclusivity for listeners as opposed to trying to stretch a short story.
Also sounds like the podcast changed for the better. Saw reviews from 1-2 years ago that mentioned distracting plugs and banter, along with a few jokes that were at the expense of others. (Yes, the podcast is sponsored by Cards Against Humanity, but probably not a good idea to cross in-game behavior with a podcast meant to be uplifting)
