We’re taking a short summer break from new episodes, and while we’re out we’re bringing back some of the most downloaded conversations from the past year. This one’s a favorite whether you caught it the first time or you’re just finding it now. Robin Wallis Atkinson, founder and CEO of Upkept, talks with Randy about the decline of garment repair skills and how her platform is making clothing repair simple and climate-friendly.
This episode was part of our Future is Local series with the Walton Family Foundation.
