Episode notes
Join us in today’s episode for our inaugural Tea Time, where we spill the tea (one of us quite literally) on ourselves about shopping at Primark.
Tune in to hear about our Primark struggles, our thoughts on fast fashion (and fast retail in general), the greyness of it all, and ways to start giving (more of) a sh*t today.
