Podcasts about Clothing

From a 150-year-old alcohol bottle unearthed in Utah—where the “real treasure” might be what it once tasted like—to footprints in White Sands New Mexico which are more than 20,000 years old, this episode spans the surprisingly fragile side of archaeology. We also dig into a discovery being called the oldest clothing in human history, and what it can (and can't) tell us about early humans, preservation, and the everyday technologies that rarely survive.

Rabbi Zuckerman explores why the Torah goes into such detail about the clothing one should wear in a sacred space. Clothing, according to the Torah, is not decorative. Rather, it binds us and shapes us. In the biblical imagination, clothing does not merely express identity – it creates identity.

But what is it about this number that feels so… intentional? In this special anniversary episode of 222 Paranormal Podcast, we dive deep into the mystery, symbolism, synchronicity, and spiritual interpretations of the number 222. Is it just coincidence? Or is it a message? We begin by exploring the meaning of 222 in numerology, where repeating numbers are often called "angel numbers." In numerological interpretation, 2 represents balance, harmony, duality, and partnership. When tripled, 222 amplifies those energies — suggesting alignment, divine timing, and reassurance that you're on the right path. Many people report seeing 222 during pivotal life moments — on clocks, receipts, license plates, or phone numbers. Is this psychological pattern recognition, or something more? We also look at religious and spiritual symbolism. In the Bible, the number 2 often represents union or witness. Some scholars connect the repetition of numbers with divine confirmation or covenant themes. While 222 isn't explicitly referenced as a single number in scripture, the pattern of repetition itself has long been associated with spiritual emphasis and sacred rhythm. We touch on synchronicity — a concept popularized by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung — who believed meaningful coincidences were not random, but connected to deeper layers of the unconscious or collective consciousness. Could seeing 222 be a personal synchronicity? A nudge from the universe? A moment of alignment between inner thought and outer reality? The episode also explores psychological explanations. Humans are pattern-seeking creatures. Once a number becomes meaningful, the brain's reticular activating system begins to notice it more frequently. But here's the question: does awareness create the experience, or does the experience create awareness? We share listener stories of recurring 222 sightings before major life shifts — career changes, spiritual awakenings, even paranormal encounters. Some describe feeling calm and reassured when they see it. Others feel it's a call to pay attention. In true 222 Paranormal fashion, we don't just present answers — we explore possibilities: Is 222 a symbol of balance between the physical and spiritual worlds? Could it represent duality within ourselves — light and shadow? Is it a cosmic "thumbs up" when you're aligned with your purpose? Or is it simply the power of belief shaping perception? Whether you see 222 as an angel number, a manifestation signal, divine confirmation, or a psychological phenomenon, one thing is certain: meaning is powerful. And when meaning repeats, it demands attention. On February 22, we celebrate not just a number — but a symbol of connection. Between you and the unknown. Between coincidence and destiny. Between question and mystery. So the next time you glance at the clock and it reads 2:22… Is it random? Or is it calling you?   Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.

In this investigative solo deep dive, Darin exposes the ongoing PFAS contamination crisis, the "forever chemicals" found in drinking water, clothing, carpets, cookware, cosmetics, food packaging, and even firefighting foam. Sparked by a Frontline investigation into the carpet industry in Dalton, Georgia, this episode expands far beyond one region and reveals a global supply chain problem affecting nearly every American.

Most people think about what they put in their bodies. Almost no one thinks about what they put on them. In this episode, I'm joined by clothing safety advocate and policy reform leader Hannah Dunning, widely known as The Clean Clothing Chick. She's a leading voice in the clean clothing movement, helping consumers understand the hidden health risks in modern apparel and pushing for transparency in an industry with very little regulation. We discuss how chemicals in clothing interact with the body, why women are disproportionately affected by toxic exposure, the truth behind synthetic fabrics and "sustainable" materials like bamboo, and what's happening behind the scenes in both fast fashion and luxury brands. We also explore corporate accountability, supply chains, and what the future of clean fashion could look like.

You're invited to keep going with a honest look at the categories most homes definitely have too much of — even if they don't look like clutter at first glance. This is about being realistic, not perfect, and questioning what's taking up space in your home and your head.You're encouraged to approach each category with simple questions: Do you use it? Does it fit your life now? Would you miss it if it were gone?Rethink shoes that hurt your feet, don't fit, or are worn beyond repair — especially if you keep taking them off moments after putting them on. Textbooks get a hard truth moment too: if you've tried to sell or donate them and no one wants them, they're just taking up space. Letting them go is allowed.Take a brave look at makeup that's expired, unused, or unhygienic, along with incidental furniture that no longer serves a purpose but quietly attracts clutter. Clothing gets an honest call-out — you likely have far more than you need, and letting go won't leave you stranded without options.You're also encouraged to reduce visual clutter by decluttering ornaments and trinkets, especially those without meaning or joy anymore. Practical categories like stubby holders, wine glasses, lingerie, and fidget toys are reframed around actual use rather than “just in case.”The aim isn't to strip your home bare — it's to create breathing room. When you declutter by category, momentum builds, decisions get easier, and your space starts supporting you instead of draining you.Join my Free 5 Day Wardrobe Challenge for a 5 day video series to take you through your wardrobe step by stepYou may also like to listen to these episodes:5 Home TruthsOpportunity Cost/ Cost Benefit AnalysisJoin my communityLeave a 5 Star Google ReviewFollow me on InstagramFollow me on FacebookJoin my Facebook groupThank you to my sound engineer, Jarred from Four4ty Studio Hosted on Acast.

Antebellum homes are often admired for their sweeping columns, elegant staircases, and timeless Southern charm. But beneath the polished wood and historic beauty lies a far more complicated past. Many of these estates were built on the backs of enslaved labor, and with that reality comes a legacy that some believe never truly left. In this episode, we explore several Southern homes with reputations for intense paranormal activity—locations where both former owners and enslaved individuals are said to still be present. Witness accounts describe unexplained footsteps pacing long-empty halls, disembodied voices drifting through locked rooms, and sudden cold spots that appear without warning. Some investigators have even reported shadow figures standing at the ends of hallways, watching silently before vanishing into darkness. One of the most chilling stories discussed centers on a historic home that suffered a devastating fire. According to local legend, during the blaze—and in later years during reported paranormal experiences—witnesses claimed to see human-like figures moving within the flames themselves. Apparitions appearing inside fire is an especially unsettling phenomenon, suggesting that whatever energy remains tied to the location may be replaying moments of trauma or catastrophe. These sightings raise questions about residual hauntings, emotional imprints, and whether extreme events can leave permanent echoes in the environment. We also take time to examine the duality often found in these historic locations. While some reports focus on former owners—figures in period clothing, stern presences, or footsteps on upper floors—other accounts describe sightings believed to be tied to enslaved individuals who once lived and worked on the property. These encounters tend to be quieter but no less powerful: faint singing where no one is present, figures seen near former quarters, or sensations of being watched accompanied by overwhelming emotion. As always, the conversation moves beyond simple ghost stories and into deeper questions. Are these manifestations intelligent spirits, residual energy, or psychological responses to historically charged locations? Can trauma—especially repeated over generations—leave an imprint strong enough to replay itself decades or centuries later? Adding to the episode's atmosphere, a listener-submitted story brings a personal and unsettling firsthand experience into the discussion. Real accounts like this continue to blur the line between folklore and lived experience, reminding us that the paranormal is often most powerful when it intersects with everyday life. This episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast** doesn't just explore haunted houses—it examines how history, memory, and human experience may shape what we encounter in allegedly haunted spaces. Whether you believe these encounters are spiritual, environmental, or psychological, the stories connected to antebellum homes remain some of the most emotionally charged and deeply compelling in paranormal research. Join us as we walk through candlelit hallways, listen for echoes from another era, and ask the question that always lingers in historic places: does the past ever truly leave—or does it simply wait to be heard? Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.

Define Your Target ROIHave a clear goal and outcomes in mind because the event is what you make it.Rightsize your investment. There's no shame in starting small, like a shared booth, table at StartUp CPG, sampling out of a backpack, etc. Even big brands need to be cautious of their spending because it adds up fast. But if you want to make a big splash, be willing to spend the money on the right opportunity.Aim to have your agenda 60% planned, but 40% flexible, because you never know who might pop up with some exciting and unexpected.2. Plan AheadBook your accommodations early, because everything near the Convention Center fills up quickly and gets very expensive.Find the sessions you want to attend, people you want to meet, and booths you want to visit through the app and social media posts, but also decide what's non-negotiable and what's optional for you, because you will get exhausted/overwhelmed.Make dinner reservations, book event venues, and meeting rooms in advance because there are a ton of competing groups looking for limited time slots.Order all your materials, swag, outfits, etc., well ahead of time because shipping delays happen, and you don't want to be caught empty-handed or paying the steep price to rush reprint in Anaheim.3. Be Clear & CompellingHave your 5-second pitch and main talking points ready, because there are way too many people and not enough time to stumble or be vague.Bring the energy, passion, and vibes because that attracts people to your booth, lifts everyone's spirits, and makes you memorable.Ask lots of questions to get to know people and how you can help each other. It can reveal incredibly powerful information for you both.4. Crush Your BoothMake sure it's clear what you're selling and what makes it special, otherwise your booth is likely to be missed (unless you're drawing attention, see below).Be unique but authentic, have a compelling story or theme for the show, and be engaging and fun as people walk up.Have events or activities at your booth that attract a crowd, and bring enough samples/goodies to go around. Tip: people are drawn to anything that's more than a tiny bite on a toothpick or a generic tote bag.Have a method for politely exiting conversations, like handing them off to an associate or introducing them to another guest, so you can be available when that critical retailer, investor, broker, or press badge arrives.5. Draw AttentionApply for a Nexty, participate in the Pitch Slam, or partner on an innovation with another popular brand. Do things that will make you more visible.Send out press releases, make announcements on social media, and offer the press a unique and exciting story to draw them to your booth.Invite an industry rockstar or celebrity to your booth for a meet and greet.Host a happy hour with a prominent group, like B Corp.6. Connect With Your CommunityAttend events hosted by your membership communities (B Corp, 1% for the Planet, Regenerative Organic, Upcycled, Non-GMO, Fair Trade, Climate Neutral, Climate Collaborative, Naturally Network, Purpose Pledge, Startup CPG, Project Potluck, :INCLUDED, etc.)Post updates in your preferred social channel (pictures, top finds, great insights, events, selfies, etc), tag people, and comment on others' posts! Wear your affiliations (shirts, hats, pins, stickers, lanyards, badges, etc).7. Take Care of YourselfHydrate and eat real food, or at least snack your way to well-balanced meals or your stomach and energy levels will regret it later.Dress comfortably and in layers. You'll be walking a lot, in and out of buildings, and the weather can change quickly. Bonus: dress memorably.Rest your feet and your back whenever you can. They will be sore.Get full nights of sleep when you can, and take some downtime in between things to recharge your batteries and brain.8. Be Brave, Be ActiveMeet people! That's why you're going. Don't just hide in your hotel, your booth, or in your co-worker/friend group. Get out there.Attend happy hours, events, and dinners even if you worked the booth all day, because that's the time to make real human connections.Go talk to that hero, buyer, investor, press, celebrity, etc because that's why they're here, and why you're here.9. Don't Try to Do it AllThe show is way too big to see every booth. Decide what's most important.

In this episode of Americana Podcast: The 51st State, we listen for a different kind of music.Not the kind that starts on a stage. The kind built into process. The low hum of a sewing machine. The steady rhythm of hands at work. The quiet beat of something being made with intention.The story begins in Tupelo, Mississippi, a town forever tied to music. Gospel, blues, and early rock and roll left their fingerprints here. Rhythm lives in the ground, and making something, whether a song or a pair of jeans, has always meant putting a little of yourself into the work.Blue Delta Jeans was founded here by Josh West and Nick Weaver. Two men who believed craft still mattered, and that manufacturing could carry the same soul as the music that shaped its region. What they built was not about chasing trends. It was about slowing things down, listening closely, and letting process lead.This episode explores the connection between music, labor, and culture. The same values that shape a song shape the things we wear. Authenticity. Repetition. Imperfection. Time.Listen to the full episode on all streaming platforms or at Americanapodcast.com.Like, Share, and Subscribe to Americana Podcast.

Most women think “forever chemicals” are only a kitchenware problem—until they realize everyday PFAS exposure can also come from the clothing they wear. In this episode of Start Living Sustainable, Cynthia—bringing 20+ years in fashion and textile science—breaks down what PFAS are, why they persist, how repeated exposure can quietly interfere with hormones and energy, and what it looks like to move from awareness to intentional action with order instead of overwhelm.

In this episode 8 of The Composter, I sit down with Justen Garrity from Veteran Compost and Caroline Barry from Closed Loop Partners for a wide-ranging conversation about where the composting industry is right now and where it's headed next.A big thread running through this conversation is Extended Producer Responsibility or EPR (no, I hadn't heard of this before either!) and why it matters so much for composters to be part of these EPR policy discussions early and often. We dig into the realities of de-packaging, the challenges of scaling a composting business, and the mix of grants, loans, and other funding tools that can help move growth forward.Justen Garrity founded Veteran Compost in 2010 after struggling to find work when he came back from Iraq. The tough job market turned out to be the perfect catalyst for starting up a Veteran run compost operation. Justen shares insights about the Veteran Compost operation in Maryland and Virginia. He's also a shining example of compost policy activism.Caroline Barry is Senior Program Manager at The Closed Loop Center for the Circular Economy, an innovation firm helping businesses solve their most pressing material challenges. She leads the Composting Consortium; an industry collaboration advancing U.S. composting infrastructure and recovery of food scraps & compostable packaging. In this chat Caroline brings a broad systems-level perspective on expanding food scrap composting infrastructure nationwide.Check out Veteran Compost (

In Episode 2, State of Delaware v. Thomas J. Capano, Part 1, Lisa and Kyle looked at the case against Thomas Joseph Capano. On June 27, 1996, Anne Marie Fahey, the scheduling secretary for Delware Governor Thomas Carper, went to dinner with Thomas J. Capano, a local attorney and the son of a prominent real estate developer in Wilmington, DE. The last time anyone saw Annie alive was at the restaurant in Philadelphia. After a lengthy joint state and federal investigation, in 1997, Capano's brother, Gerry, admitted that he'd helped his brother dump Annie's body in the Atlantic Ocean. In Part 1, Lisa and Kyle talked about the investigation, Capano's 1998 trial, his conviction on 01/17/1999 and the outcome of his direct appeal.

Have you ever considered that the silk against your skin might be doing more than just making you pretty? That those tight laces aren't merely decorative—they're a bridge between your body and your submission? That's the topic of this week's episode of The Weekly Hot Spot, Sissy Bondage Wear.Clothing has always been a tool of control. From Victorian tight-lacing to modern locking corsets, what we wear shapes not just how others see us, but how we experience our own submission. Ms Erika brought this topic to the table after an inspiring conversation about how bondage wear serves as a constant reminder of "who and what you are" when you're in your sissy headspace. It's the difference between simply wearing a dress and being held by it.As Femdoms, we'll explain the tension between restriction and reward—the "princess paradox," if you will. Can a sensual Dominatrix wield a hobble dress with the same effectiveness as a strict protocol Mistress? (Spoiler: absolutely, but the psychological impact shifts.) We discuss how locking ankle straps, spreader bars, and even DIY budget-friendly options like repurposed pantyhose can create that coveted feeling of helpless feminization without breaking the bank.Finally, we talk about our favorite locking mechanisms, from padlocks to numbered tags that look like tiny zip ties. We emphasize safety when doing solo distance domination play.This conversation is for the sissy who wants to understand how a simple Ace bandage cincher or hobbled heels can shift sissy training into a profound feminization experience.Have you discovered the transformative power of restrictive feminization? What's your essential piece of sissy bondage wear—the item that instantly drops you into submission?If this episode leaves you aching to explore your own wardrobe of restraint, remember that Erika and I'm available for private phone and text sessions where we can design your perfect sissy bondage protocol. We're both on DISCORD: LDWOlivia and LDWErikaOlivia@EnchantrixEmpire.comTwiterX: @MistressOlivia1     Blue Sky:  @Ms Olivia     Ms Olivia's blog: Experienced MistressErika@EnchantrixEmpire.comTwitterX and Blue Sky: @ErikaEnchantrix Ms Erika's blog: Intelligent Phone FantasyUntil next time… stay pretty, stay sexy, and stay bound to us.

On this episode of Discover Lafayette, we sit down with two leaders deeply involved in shaping student career readiness at University of Louisiana at Lafayette: Brandi Hollier, Director of the B.I. Moody College of Business Internship Program, and Kim Billeaudeau, Director of the Office of Career Services. Together, they share how internships, professional preparation, and employer partnerships come together to help students transition confidently from the classroom into the workforce — while also supporting local businesses looking to grow talent. Kim Billeaudeau: A Career Built on Mentorship Kim Billeaudeau has served in Career Services for 25 years, including nearly 19 years as director. A Louisiana native from Opelousas, Kim's journey began close to home. “I grew up right down the street in Opelousas, and I taught high school,” she shared. After earning her degree from UL and teaching high school for two years, she realized her passion was helping students navigate life beyond graduation. “I remembered mentors that I had as a student at UL Lafayette; professional staff members who saw something in me as a student leader,” Kim said. “When Career Services came available, it was perfect.” Over the years, Kim has helped students with résumés, interviewing, dining etiquette, career fairs, and professional presence. She still sees the long-term impact today. “They'll say, ‘Miss Kim, you taught me dining etiquette' or ‘you helped me with my résumé.' What I do is amazing, and I'm so blessed to be able to help students each and every day, to graduate and be successful from our institution.” Professional Skills Beyond the Classroom Kim emphasized that many students simply haven't had exposure to professional environments before. “Sometimes students don't have an opportunity to put on professional clothing or go through a four or five course meal,” she explained. “The more we can provide them that hands-on experience, that's part of the education experience.” Career Services offers mock interviews, interview preparation, and coaching on everything from researching employers to follow-up thank-you notes. “We do a lot of mock interviews with students. Everything from preparing for the interview, not only choosing what to wear, but researching the company, getting notes together, thinking of what questions you can ask in the interview and getting them to understand that it’s a two way street. Everything to giving a good firm handshake, introducing yourself, when to sit, where to sit, looking the employer in the eye, smiling, and then answering interview questions. And then the follow up with thank you, and online applications. We coach students all through the process.” Kim is also a certified etiquette consultant through The Etiquette Institute and completed refresher training on post-COVID etiquette, which she now incorporates into student preparation. Brandi Guidry Hollier: From Student to Professor to Internship Director Brandi Hollier is an associate professor in the Department of Management and has served as Director of the Moody College of Business Internship Program for more than 12 years. A Lafayette native, her career path has come full circle. She’s currently the recipient of two endowed professorships. “I was born and raised here in Lafayette, Louisiana. I kind of grew up at UL,” Brandi said. She earned both her undergraduate degree and MBA from UL before starting as an adjunct instructor, later becoming full-time faculty and earning her doctorate. “There are professors at the university that have taught me that I now work with, which is a beautiful thing.” Brandi also oversees internship programming that connects students with real-world experience before graduation. “There are opportunities to go out into an organization and get some professional experience prior to entering the workforce,” she said. “It's my honor and it's a blessing to be able to help students in doing that.” Research, Technology, and the Changing Business Landscape Brandi's research focuses on technology adoption, including telemedicine, artificial intelligence, and personality in human-computer interaction, work that directly influences how she teaches. “Artificial intelligence is here to stay,” she noted. “We have to allow students the opportunity to engage with that, and teach them how to properly do so within ethical realms.” She emphasized that curriculum is evolving to reflect rapid changes in technology and business practices. Internships: Events, Employers, and Real Connections Through collaboration with Career Services, the Moody College of Business offers internship panels, employer seminars, networking receptions, and career fair prep seminars. One standout event is the business internship networking reception held at the UL Lafayette Alumni Center. “Resumes are not brought in. We discourage that,” Brandi explained. “We just want them to have a conversation.” Employers often leave these events already knowing who they intend to hire or having significantly narrowed their candidate pool. “Small, medium, large sized enterprises — we welcome any and all,” she said. Handshake: A Central Portal for Students and Employers Both offices rely on Handshake, a centralized online portal where employers can post internships, part-time, and full-time positions at no cost. “It's all online,” Kim said. “Handshake is really a powerful tool.” All UL Lafayette students automatically have access and can build profiles with résumés, cover letters, and skills. Alumni also retain access. Paid vs. Unpaid Internships and Academic Credit Brandi explained that guidance comes from the National Association of Colleges and Employers, which encourages compensated internships whenever possible. Students may also earn academic credit if the internship aligns with their major and is approved through a multi-step process involving the employer, department coordinator, and internship office. “It's a three-hour credit,” Brandi noted, often taken as an elective, though required in some programs. Preparing Students — and Employers Both Kim and Brandi emphasized that their offices support not only students, but also employers who may not know where to begin. “We never want it to be frustrating for a company to hire a student,” Kim said. “We can help make the connections.” They also encourage employers to think ahead, create clear job descriptions, provide orientation, mentorship, and regular feedback. “That feedback loop is so very important,” Brandi stressed. Confidence, Clothing, and the Career Closet One of the most impactful resources discussed was the Career Closet, which provides free professional clothing to students. “We had over 700 students take items out of the closet last semester,” Kim shared. Students keep the clothing, helping ease financial barriers to professional attire. UL Lafayette students can shop for up to 16 free professional clothing items per semester to prepare for events such as interviews, banquets, student organization events, and much more. Career Services also offers free professional headshots at career fairs. “They'll say, ‘I can't wait to send this to my mom,'” Kim said. “They get so much pride seeing themselves in that professional photo.” Donations of gently used professional clothing and accessories are encouraged and much needed. For more information on how you can contribute, please visit https://louisiana.edu/career/students-alumni/career-closet Advice for Students Brandi Holllier shared, “One of my favorite questions, and I do share this with students to ask at the end of the interview is, ‘How would I get feedback on my job performance if hired?’ That shows the company you want their feedback. You want to learn, you want to grow. You know, that’s the experience. It’s about learning and growing. I feel that’s a really great question for students to pose in an interview.” Both Kim and Brandi strongly encourage students to maintain a professional online presence. “Employers will search you online,” Brandi noted, emphasizing the importance of LinkedIn and being mindful of social media and what photos you share online. Life Outside of Work Outside of campus, Brandi enjoys reading and occasionally playing piano alongside her daughter. TV is not a part of her life, and her quiet, beautifully serene nature is reflected in her wise choices as to how she spends her free time. Kim, meanwhile, is currently actively wearing the hat of wedding planner as her daughter prepares for an April 2026 wedding. “Every moment I have outside of my job is spent on wedding planning,” she said with a big smile. This conversation offers a valuable look at how UL Lafayette prepares students for professional success — and how local employers can engage meaningfully with the next generation of talent.

Holly shares her journey as a nutritional scientist and formulating chemist, and how that experience led her to develop JostArriba, an instant coffee with added brain health and mental well-being benefits. We discuss the nootropic and adaptogen ingredients, like Reishi, Lions Mane, Ashwagandha, and L-Theanine, and how Holly obsessed over not just the functionality of the ingredients, but how the final product tastes. She then talks about the formation of her brand, Eightbillion, and the rigorous process of becoming a Certified B Corp, which reflects her commitment to ethical practices and community support. We wrap up by talking about her vision for the future of the company, her advice for fellow impact-driven entrepreneurs, and how a better world is one in which everybody is nicer, kinder, calmer, and feeling better about themselves and others.

Breaking testimony from the Paul Caneiro quadruple murder trial. New Jersey State Police forensic analysts confirmed DNA from both Sophia Caneiro, age 8, and Jesse Caneiro, age 11, was found on clothing in their uncle Paul's basement. The children were stabbed to death fourteen miles away in Colts Neck. Sophia's blood appeared in three separate locations on a pair of jeans — shin, calf, thigh. Her DNA was also on a black surgical glove frozen to the denim. Jesse's DNA showed up as part of a mixed sample. Prosecutors argue Paul Caneiro wore those items when he allegedly killed his brother Keith's entire family, then brought them home. Sophia was stabbed seventeen times. Court findings suggest she may have still been breathing when the fire was set beneath her. Keith Caneiro was shot execution-style — a contact or near-contact wound through his hood while he lay face-down on his lawn. The night before, he'd confronted Paul about $77,000 missing from a trust account and demanded answers by 8 p.m. Prosecutors say what happened next was Paul's response. The defense is raising contamination questions, but the physical evidence linking Paul to the murders is now before the jury. The trial continues through mid-March.#PaulCaneiro #TrueCrimeToday #CaneiroTrial #ColtsNeckMurders #DNATestimony #QuadrupleMurder #KeithCaneiro #SophiaCaneiro #JesseCaneiro #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/​Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This is an unfiltered conversation about long timelines, tough decisions, pricing with confidence, and why loving your idea is non-negotiable if you want to survive entrepreneurship.

In Episode 339, Kestrel welcomes Beth Jensen, the Chief Impact Officer at Textile Exchange, to the show. Leading the organization's efforts to achieve beneficial climate and nature impacts, Beth oversees key functions at Textile Exchange including impact data and Life Cycle Assessment studies; impact tools and reporting mechanisms; reports and research; fundraising; and public affairs/policy. "A big part of vulnerability is really admitting that you don't have all the answers. So in sustainability, in fashion, apparel, and textile space, this is just the way we have to operate. If you said you had all the answers, you wouldn't be taken seriously in this space … What you present as data might change the next time you present it because you have new and better information. You just have to be able to work in the gray and really take the best available information and make informed decisions based on that information." -Beth THEME — DATA & FASHION: METHODS & ACCESS Before we dive in, I want to take a moment to remind us all that FASHION IS POLITICAL.   Whenever a big politically-charged moment arises in the U.S., there is this narrative I see creeping around that expects fashion (brands, designers, creators, etc) to stay silent on quote unquote political issues – that fashion should stay in its so-called lane, detached from the world around it.  Here's the thing – FASHION IS POLITICAL. It always has been and it always will be. It doesn't exist in its own little vacuum. If you care about the fashion industry, and its impact on people and the planet, it's imminent to pay attention and engage in so-called politics, because it's entirely interconnected. Just to mention a few of these significant overlaps – The origins of the fashion industry in the United States – cotton grown by Black enslaved folks who were forced to immigrate – is political.  The way clothing supply chains operate – predominantly spread across the Global South where our clothes are made by mostly women of color, who are often paid less than a living wage – is political. How certain materials permeate the fashion industry – fossil fuel-derived fibers AKA plastic. While other natural fibers were historically made illegal to grow AKA hemp – is political. The largest garment manufacturing city in the U.S. is Los Angeles, employing over 46,000 garment workers, most of whom are immigrant women from Mexico and Central America. L.A. is the wage theft capital of the U.S., with the average hourly wage being $5.85 (Labor Violations In The LA Garment Industry, Garment Worker Center, 2020) The institutionalized violent origins of ICE as well as the continued horrific acts they have made toward immigrants and nonimmigrants, fellow members of our communities – is political. As Faherty called it in their recent IG post – systemic inhumanity affects us all – our families, friends, colleagues, neighbors and communities, and that is political. If you try to separate fashion from politics, clothing from humans, it's impossible. Clothing is made by people who are integral members of our communities and valued creatives along the supply chain. We must advocate for our fellow community members and the safety of our neighbors. This is the second episode is a 2-part series dedicated to DATA IN FASHION. While many of you may already have an understanding of these elements, I think they are important to reframe and contextualize the following conversation.  The fashion industry and the so-called sustainable fashion space has a concerning history with data. The so-called stat – fashion is the 2nd largest polluter globally, second only to oil – unfortunately spread like wildfire before it was found to be unsubstantiated – in 2017, journalist Alden Wicker brought this to light in an article on Racked, and the NY Times did a deep dive into it the following year, calling it the "biggest fake news in fashion". It's clear that the fashion industry has a massive impact on the earth and its inhabitants – it's an industry that not only thrives with models of overproduction and waste, it also prioritizes synthetic fossil fuel-derived materials like polyester. But, considering how long this inaccurate claim was utilized by the sustainability and fashion realm (to note, I still see it used today and often have to send articles to folks to remind them that it was never substantiated) – I guess, it becomes challenging for fashion to be taken seriously in the greater climate conversation.  Being that fashion is one of the most underregulated industries – I know this is shifting with more policy coming into play, but it's slow. This has further reduced the amount of data collected from brands, because it hasn't been required.  As you can tell, data, fashion and sustainability have a complex history. This week's guest understands this reality, and is pushing to shift the narrative through her work with Textile Exchange. But it's a tricky task, when for her, a lack of data shouldn't prevent us from taking action.  "Without having data to underpin statements about something working toward reducing impact or creating beneficial impact, there's really nothing for those statements to stand on. Now the challenge there is making sure that we're striking the right balance of not letting perfect data get in the way of doing the work that we need to do to improve practices and create beneficial outcomes for the industry." -Beth Materials Market Report 2025 (Press Release) Paper on Ensuring Integrity in the Use of Life Cycle Assessment Data (Press Release) Industry Reports Library Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) Library Follow Textile Exchange on Instagram
