Episode 209: Revisiting the Ethics of Secondhand (Live from the Clotheshorse Jamboree)
lundi 26 août 2024 • Durée 02:02:16
It's the first ever "recorded with a live studio audience" episode of Clotheshorse, recorded at West Art in Lancaster, PA. For this very special event, Amanda is joined by Alex of St. Evens, Christine of Lady Hogg Vintage, and Dylan (a former thrift store worker).
In 2023, Alex of St. Evens joined Amanda for a FOUR PART exploration of the ethics of secondhand resale. More than year and a half later, myths about secondhand and anti-reseller rhetoric can still be found in every corner of the internet. In this episode, we revisit the ethics of secondhand shopping, thrifting, and resellers, exploring the following questions:
✭ Who is really getting rich from the sales of secondhand clothing? ✭ Are resellers really "taking all of the good stuff" from thrift stores? ✭ What is the real purpose of thrift stores? ✭ How can we (as a community) make secondhand more accessible to more people? ✭ Why is there so much bad stuff in thrift stores right now? ✭ And so much more!
Want to catch up on what we have already discussed in the past? You can find these episode anywhere you listen to podcasts: 👂Episode 159: We debunked two major anti-resale arguments: “Thrift stores are designed to be a resource for low income people" & “Resellers are making tons of money from taking things that should be for low income people.” 👂Episode 160: We debunked two major anti-resale arguments: “Resellers are taking all of ‘the good stuff" &“Resellers are responsible for rising prices at thrift stores.” 👂Episode 161: We debunked the final anti-resale myth: “Resellers misrepresent what they’re selling, list things at wildly inflated prices, and overall behave miserably both online and in person.”

dimanche 5 mai 2024 • Durée 01:39:10
This episode is part one of two about laundry and clothing care. You can find the other episode as episode 153 in your feed!
It's the year of Earth Logic here at Clotheshorse, where we are planning to reduce our consumption of brand new clothing by 75%! It's essential that we get as much wear as possible out of clothes. And how we wash, dry, and deal with those stains is a big part of making our clothing last longer. Amanda is joined by Maggie and Traci to solve your laundry quandaries. In this episode, we will be sharing our own laundry trauma, and then we will get into some of the biggest questions you had: detergent and detergent pods, line drying, shrinking, dealing with pills, and water temperature. We’ll also share our advice (some of it from Maggie’s laundry magician mom Peggy) about the essentials you should keep on hand to solve your own laundry quandaries!
Maggie (she, her) is a cisgender, pansexual woman, a recovering marketing professional, and a trauma and abuse survivor. Maggie is also the Chief Everything Officer of Maggie Greene Style, an ethical microbusiness on a mission to transform how you see yourself by putting the personal in brand and style. Maggie helps leaders, entrepreneurs, and individual contributors of all gender expressions show up as their radically authentic selves, at work and in life, with confidence and without compromising their core values and ethics.

dimanche 26 septembre 2021 • Durée 01:42:42
In the final installment of a three part series, Chloe and Sammy of the OR Foundation continue our exploration of the repercussions of our overconsumption on Ghana, its people, and our entire planet. Both of them are fashion designers--in addition to their work with the OR Foundation in Ghana--and they will explain how experiencing fast fashion's impact on the people of Accra has changed their relationship with fashion and clothing.

Episode 97: Nothing is Disposable (with Liz Ricketts of the OR Foundation), part I
dimanche 12 septembre 2021 • Durée 01:41:20
Throwaway culture may not seem to affect you personally (spoiler: it actually is), but the fast fashion cycle of shop/wear a few times/donate is having a massive negative impact on humans, animals, and the planet...it’s just happening out of our line of sight. In part one of a three part series, Liz Ricketts of the OR Foundation breaks down the repercussions of our overconsumption on Ghana, its people, and our entire planet, bringing it into our full line of sight.
About 15 million secondhand garments from the Global North arrive in Accra, Ghana each week. These bales of "dead white man's clothes" represent a massive industry with incredibly negative economic and environmental impact. Liz will describe a typical day in Kantamanto (the secondhand clothing market). She'll explain why resellers often say a prayer before opening a bale, and what happens to the 40% of these clothes that are simply not sellable.

Episode 93: The Etsy-sodes (part IV): When Were The Good Times?
lundi 23 août 2021 • Durée 01:59:52
When was the "golden era" of Etsy? In the final installment of the Etsy-sodes, we will be exploring many pivotal moments that changed the company's trajectory (and the lives of its sellers). When did the good times end/the less good times begin? We will try to figure that out! We'll be covering the return (and bitter departure) of Rob Kalin, the manufacturing policy change, the IPO (and the subsequent lawsuit) and all the new fees and shipping polices. And we'll break down why so many makers stay with Etsy despite all of these issues.
And again, let's give a special, super grateful shout to our friend (and a previous guest), Christine of Lady Hogg Vintage for doing a bunch of research and sending us a ton of info! Thank you so much, Christine! She’s been selling on Etsy for a long time so she had a lot of experience and memories to share that really guided the process of writing this story!
Extra Credit Reading (there's so much for this episode)!
Episode 92: The Etsy-sodes (part III): We Do The Math
dimanche 15 août 2021 • Durée 01:27:43
Welcome back to 2008! We pick up the story of Etsy in 2008, when the start-up accepted some serious cash from some serious investors. And we'll do the math: how easy is it to "quit your day job" as Etsy promised its sellers?

COMMUNITY FAVORITES: Episode 159: Examining The Ethics of Secondhand Resale (part 1) with Alex of St. Evens
dimanche 28 avril 2024 • Durée 02:06:30
This episode is part one of a FOUR episode series examining the ethics of secondhand resale with Alex of St. Evens. You can find the other installments as episodes 160-162.
In the first installment, we will tackle two arguments often tossed around in discussions about secondhand on social media:
Thrift stores are designed to be a resource for low income people.
Resellers are making tons of money from taking things that should be for low income people.
The intro segment for this episode will focus on the reality that many people have shifted their behavior from overconsuming fast fashion to overconsuming secondhand clothing. And we will talk about how we can change that!
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this episode: Stacie, Mags, Clare, Sarah, Katherine, and Amanda. Some additional reading:
Episode 91: An Etsy-sode That Is Really An eBay-sode
dimanche 8 août 2021 • Durée 01:47:30
You can't tell the story of Etsy without talking about eBay. eBay crawled so Etsy could run...or something like that. In this episode, we'll break down the history of eBay and how it revolutionized the idea of buying stuff from strangers on the internet. Also: a special guest drops by to listen to a wild story about eBayy involving stalking, prank pizzas, and lots of paranoia. "Inside eBay’s Cockroach Cult: The Ghastly Story of a Stalking Scandal," by David Streitfield, The New York Times.
