Episode 33: $9 Panties, Mall Jobs, and Classist Kombucha: Consumerism with Gillian (part II)

<p>OMG this episode is MEGA. So much happening here!  It's the second part of my our conversation about consumerism with Gillian. Today we’ll talk about minimalism as an aesthetic for the wealthy, classist kombucha ads, and how the big brands and retailers are just completely out of touch.   This episode also includes a phone conversation with Sarah of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/wide_eyed_vintage/">Wide Eyed Vintage </a>about (among other things), high school years filled with being a proud outfit non-repeater.   And Rita of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/panty.witch/">Panty Witch</a> calls in with a burning question about "ethical washing." </p><p>And!
