Episode 24: More Wasteful Hangtags, Stolen Credit Cards, and Superfluous Drama: KT and Maggie (part II)

This is part two of our conversation with KT and Maggie, the sisters behind sustainable hat brand, Salt Hats.    We break down all the signs and symptoms of fast fashion...because remember, most retailers/brands function as fast fashion in 2020.   The industry was basically forced to work faster and faster, cheaper and cheaper in order to stay competitive against the big fast fashion retailers.  So fast fashion is all around us!  Also:  sordid tales of working retail!  Amanda also does a special report about the ways that fast fashion retailers exploit low paid salaried workers via virtually infinite unpaid overtime.  Are you ready to be angry? But also kind of laugh? Then this is the episode for you!
