Podcasts about Thrift

In this episode of the Survival Punk Podcast, we're talking prepper clothing — not tactical cosplay, but real-world clothes that keep you alive, mobile, and ready for anything. The best part? You don't have to spend a fortune. From thrift stores to yard sales, we cover how to find quality gear dirt cheap — and how to store it so it's ready when you need it. Why Clothing Matters in Preparedness When the grid goes down, your clothes become your shelter, your protection, and your armor. But most folks are unprepared — they have a closet full of cotton and nothing fit for cold, wet, or rugged conditions. Prepping your wardrobe is about: Layering smart for all seasons Durability that can handle rough use Neutral colors for blending in Comfort and function over fashion

How much do we spend on cleaning products? And could we do it cheaper ourselves ? Katy Gosset gets a crash course in making her own home cleaners.

After a long, hot and often dry summer when pasture quality might be rather poor and in short demand, we're always keen to see the onset of autumn rains. At last, we can expect improved amounts of pasture on hand and the silage wagon can be parked up for a while. Improved feed quality of autumn pasture is an added bonus, likely being much better than what stock have been grazing through the summer months. With the change of season from summer to autumn, pasture quality can shift dramatically from poor quality to very lush, leafy pasture. Why then, do sheep or cattle sometimes not do as well as they should, when they first meet this new, high quality autumn pasture? This is an issue often called (in a rather nondescript manner!) “Autumn Ill Thrift”.  This first of a two part podcast series will explore some of the nutritional reasons why grazing animals might not do as well as they should on this changeable autumn pasture. Not enough feed? Low dry matter percentage, low NDF/high NDFd, or the sudden lift in crude protein?  Or more likely, a combination of multiple nutritionally-based factors. Keep an ear out for part two of this two part podcast (episode 62) where we'll continue this discussion around autumn ill thrift, by covering some of the animal health issues that might contribute to animals doing poorly during autumn months.

The secondhand clothing market isn't equipped for textile recycling. So when your donated clothes don't sell, where do they end up?With the rise of overconsumption and fast fashion, clothes have piled up in thrift stores, landfills, and incinerators around the world. Countries like Ghana and Chile are dealing with fashion waste from countries like the U.S., UK, and China, and the impacts are vast. Mountains of clothes lead to fires, polluted waterways, dying ocean life, and lost livelihoods. So how do we stop the cycle? How can we donate with purpose and dignity, and get fashion brands to actually take accountability for the full lifecycle of their clothes?Listen to hear what our community does with their used clothes, how a new law could force companies to clean up their act, and how Los Angeles's Suay Sew Shop is dealing with the untenable amount of clothing donations from wildfire relief. ➡️ If you want to support Suay Sew Shop, you can browse their site here and contribute to their Textiles Aren't Trash fire relief campaign. By the way, you can earn rewards for Suay purchases and donations in the Commons app!

The coffee was fresh, the dancers well rested, the sun was shining, the disco tiles were shimmering and dancing right along with us in the first installment of Morning Blend at Funk It Coffee and Thrift! I love a sober day party. I love the energy people bring, and I love that we all carry that energy throughout the rest of our day. I feel more free to select tunes I might not normally play in a dark club at 1am, and thus more free to express myself.

How Americans think about work changed profoundly over the course of the twentieth century. Thrift and persistence came to seem old-fashioned. Successful workers were increasingly expected to show initiative and enthusiasm for change—not just to do their jobs reliably but to create new opportunities for themselves and for others. Our culture of work today is more demanding than ever, even though workers haven't seen commensurate rewards. Make Your Own Job: How the Entrepreneurial Work Ethic Exhausted America (Harvard University Press, 2025) by Dr. Erik Baker explains how this entrepreneurial work ethic took hold, from its origins in late nineteenth-century success literature to the gig economy of today, sweeping in strange bedfellows: Marcus Garvey and Henry Ford, Avon ladies and New Age hippies. Business schools and consultants exhorted managers to cultivate the entrepreneurial spirit in their subordinates, while an industry of self-help authors synthesized new ideas from psychology into a vision of work as “self-realization.” Policy experts embraced the new ethic as a remedy for urban and Third World poverty. Every social group and political tendency, it seems, has had its own exemplary entrepreneurs. Dr. Baker argues that the entrepreneurial work ethic has given meaning to work in a world where employment is ever more precarious––and in doing so, has helped legitimize a society of mounting economic insecurity and inequality. From the advent of corporate capitalism in the Gilded Age to the economic stagnation of recent decades, Americans have become accustomed to the reality that today's job may be gone tomorrow. Where work is hard to find and older nostrums about diligent effort fall flat, the advice to “make your own job” keeps hope alive. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The crux of our discourse centers on the profound significance of love as articulated by Jesus in John 13:34-35, wherein He commands His disciples to love one another as He has loved them. In our conversation with Pastor Matt Walker Thrift, the Lead Pastor of Koerner Heights Church and author of "Follow: Genuine Discipleship in the Modern Age," we delve into the intricacies of discipleship in the contemporary context. Pastor Thrift elucidates that true discipleship transcends mere adherence to a set of directives; rather, it embodies a transformative journey of faith and relational love that one shares with God and others. As we explore the complexities of human relationships and the challenges inherent in embodying Christ's command, we also reflect on the essential practices of prayer, scripture reading, and community engagement that facilitate genuine discipleship. Through this dialogue, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of what it means to be a disciple in today's multifaceted world.The conversation unfolds with a thoughtful exploration of the challenges and joys inherent in discipleship, as articulated by Pastor Matt Walker Thrift. He highlights the duality of discipleship as both a profound commitment to following Christ and a path fraught with difficulties. This dichotomy reflects the reality faced by many believers who seek to navigate their faith amidst personal and communal struggles. Thrift's reflections on Jesus' directive to love one another serve as a poignant reminder of the relational aspect of discipleship, urging listeners to prioritize love as the foundation of their interactions with others. The discussion further critiques the notion of discipleship as a mere checklist of actions or achievements, advocating instead for a more holistic understanding that recognizes the transformative power of love in fostering genuine discipleship. By framing discipleship as a journey rather than a destination, Thrift encourages listeners to embrace the complexities of their faith and to approach their spiritual lives with curiosity and openness. This episode ultimately serves as a clarion call to engage deeply with the essence of Christian love, fostering unity and understanding within the diverse tapestry of the church.Takeaways: Pastor Matt Thrift discusses the profound commandment of love as central to discipleship, reflecting Jesus's values in the context of human frailty. He emphasizes that discipleship is a journey rather than a checklist, inviting individuals to explore their faith organically. Thrift articulates the necessity of community in the discipleship process, suggesting that relationships enhance spiritual growth and understanding. The podcast underscores the importance of engaging with diverse viewpoints within the church to foster unity and understanding amongst believers. Thrift critiques the common misconception that discipleship guarantees an easy life, acknowledging the struggles that accompany genuine faith. He advocates for the practice of spiritual disciplines such as prayer, scripture reading, and fasting as tools for deepening one's relationship with God. ..Check out all of the other shows in the Anazao Podcast Network:https://anazao-ministries.captivate.fm.Check out more from TJ on Systematic Geekology:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/642da9db-496a-40f5-b212-7013d1e211e0.Check out Joshua's Kingdom Hearts substack, The Kingdom Key:https://thekingdomkey.substack.com/.Get your copy of "Follow:...

Life comes at you fast: One day, you're moving to Los Angeles from Dayton, Ohio, building a YouTube channel from the ground up while working at a tanning salon, and the next, you're regularly going viral with millions of views on TikTok, pioneering the “thriftfluencer” space. Such was the case for Macy Eleni, a content creator, secondhand shopping expert, and author of the book Second Chances: The Ultimate Guide to Thrifting, Sustainable Style, and Expressing Your Most Authentic Self. Growing up, Macy couldn't afford to buy things that were “cool” or new, so she found her personal style and learned about fashion through thrifting — a skill she was able to turn into a flourishing career and a thriving community, both on and offline. Tune in to hear Macy's inspiring story, as well as her insights on what it was like to start vlogging in high school; the impact that early 2000s paparazzi photos and fashion reality TV had on her personal style; overcoming ridicule as a teen for wearing thrifted clothes; getting in on the ground floor of the secondhand shopping boom and watching the world catch up to your passion; building a diverse and inclusive community via YouTube and TikTok; the wild world of brand deals and monetization; getting a book deal via a cold email; playing the long game in the influencer world in order to stay authentic and build trust with her audience; how to handle the constant pressure to churn out content every day; how creators can help push brands into the future; her foray into unscripted fashion television, and much more.

She completes her meditation with the poem, "Dream Life", by Billy Collins.Dream Life, by Billy CollinsWhenever I have a dream about Poetry,which is not very oftenconsidering how much I think about her,she appears as a seamstresswho works in the window of a tailor's shopin a section of a provincial cityladen with a grey and heavy sky.I know the place so wellI could find the dimly lit shopwithout asking anyone for directions,though the streets are mostly empty,except when I saw a solitary manlooking in the window of a butcher's,his hands in the pockets of his raincoat.Poetry works long hoursand rarely speaks to the tailoras she bends to repair the fancy costumesof various allegorical figureswho were told by Thrift how little she charges.Maybe the ermine collar on the robeof Excess has come looseor a rip in the gown of Abandonneeds mending, and no questionswill be asked about how that came to pass.A little bell over the door ringswhenever a customer enters or leaves,but Poetry is too busy thinking about her childrenas she replaces a gold button on the blazer of Pride.Dream Life, by Billy Collins, from his book of poems; The Rain in Portugal.Find out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".
