We're back! Joe has returned from Mexico and Nick has returned from an unfortunate act of wire-cutting. We catch up on how things are going with our themes, discuss how life (and theology) keeps adding complexity, and think about how we respond to fear when, inevitably, it arrives. Also we talk a little more about the need to embrace uncertainty, and the importance of telling yourself some good stories. Meanwhile does Nick have a poltergeist or just a very clean rodent?

Host Bex Scott shares the five Pyrex patterns that she doesn't love in this episode. In addition to naming the unloved patterns, she explores their history and what dishes made up the sets on offer. Everyone's tastes are different so listeners may love a pattern Bex doesn't. You may agree with Bex or you may want to bring a case in defence of a favourite that appears on this list. Or possibly you're new to Pyrex and want to explore different sets. Whichever way you lean, there's something for you in this episode. All the information Bex shares is from the Pyrex Bible, more formally known as Pyrex Passion 2nd Edition by Michael D. Barber. From Golden Acorn to the infamous Old Orchard, Bex lets you into her opinions on her least loved Pyrex patterns. What is it about these patterns that put her off? What other patterns does she dislike? What is the best way to ruin a gold pattern Pyrex bowl? And is there anybody who will stand up in support of Old Orchard? Listen in then share your agreements, arguments, and collection display photos with Bex on Instagram @PyrexWithBex. Resources discussed in this episode:“Pyrex Passion 2nd Edition” by Michael D. BarberGolden Acorn PyrexGolden Honeysuckle PyrexOld Orchard PyrexForest Fancies PyrexPyrex brown hugger cradle—Contact Rebecca Scott | Pyrex With Bex: Website: PyrexWithBex.comInstagram: @pyrexwithbex—TranscriptBex Scott: [00:00:02] Hey everybody, it's Bex Scott and welcome to the Pyrex with Bex podcast, where you guessed it, I talk about vintage Pyrex, but also all things vintage housewares. I'll take you on my latest thrifting adventures, talk about reselling, chat with other enthusiasts about their collections, and learn about a bunch of really awesome items from the past. Subscribe now on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you love listening to podcasts so you don't miss a beat. Hey everybody, this is Bex Scott and you are listening to the Pyrex with Bex podcast. On today's episode, I wanted to talk about the five Pyrex patterns that I don't love. I figured that since I've talked in the past about so many of the patterns that I do love, and I've had guests talking about their collections and the ones that they collect the most often, I'd switch things up a little bit and talk about the ones that I don't love as much. Now I do enjoy all Pyrex and I'll use any kind of pattern. I have even put patterns that I don't love in displays just because they go so well. And you'll realize that there's a bit of a pattern to the ones that I don't love once I start going through them. But I wanted to give you an idea of some of the ones that I don't necessarily collect as much of, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether you agree with me, which ones you don't love, and get a conversation going. You can find me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex, and feel free to share your thoughts about this episode there. Bex Scott: [00:01:42] So starting off, we have the first one, and I'll start by saying all of the information that I'm going to give is from the Pyrex Bible, the Pyrex Passion Book by Michael D Barber. I have the second edition, and that's where I get all of my of my information from. So I wanted to, once I say which pattern I don't love, give you a little bit of background information on the dish so that you can learn a little bit more about it if you're a new collector, or maybe you have been collecting for a while, but you haven't necessarily read up about certain patterns. And just to give some fun information on each of the pieces. Because regardless of whether I like it, there's tons of other people out there that do like these pieces, so to each their own. Bex Scott: [00:02:30] So the very first one is the Gold Acorn. And I have owned various pieces of this set, and I believe I started off liking them, but it just wasn't a pattern that grew on me. So this one was produced from 1959 to 1963, and it came in an assorted bakeware set. So it was gold applied to a beige background. It paints a little bit of a picture, and it's like a scrolly kind of ivy leaf pattern with little acorns on it. And it says that the boxes didn't include the pattern name, but marketing materials from the time used the name Gold Acorn on Ivory or Golden Touch in reference to this pattern. And it says that the first edition of Pyrex Passion referred to the pattern as Golden Acorn, but Gold Acorn was more commonly used in the catalogs. And most items were offered from 1959 to 1963, with the exception of the 053 oval open baker, which was dropped in 1962. So the ones that I've had are the oval casseroles, and they come in the one and a half quart and two and a half quart with the clear lids. And I've also had a divided serving dish. And one of the things that I learned early on when I was collecting Pyrex is that you don't put anything abrasive on gold, and this was me being naive. I should have known better. But I remember getting a tube of peek because starting off in my collecting, I had heard that peek is the perfect thing to take the utensil marks off of Pyrex and just clean them up, which it is. But you cannot use anything abrasive on gold because it will wear it off. So I remember squeezing the peek onto a piece of paper towel, and I rubbed off the whole bottom half of the gold acorn pattern. And I still haven't forgotten that it was a good lesson for me to learn, but for any of you that are just starting out, you can use peek to clean your Pyrex but do not use it on the gold. It will ruin it. Bex Scott: [00:04:58] Okay, so the Gold Acorn was also offered in the stamp catalog carousel with a cradle, and the stamp program was where you would redeem your stamps at the store and they would give you the Pyrex in return. So it says the item appears in the 1961 Top Value Stamps Family Gift Catalog. The cradle was the same one used on the 1959 duet, or also known as Dandelion Casserole. And that one kind of has the same colorings. It's more of a yellow, though, actually. And I really like the Dandelion. The oval divided serving dish also came in Gold Acorn and then the oval open baker. And I have to say, I don't love this pattern, but I do have a weakness for space saver casseroles. I just love the size of them, especially if they come with that metal lid. Perfect for the freezer. So these ones were sold individually with a clear lid from 1959 to 1963. And then they came out with another set, same time frame though, with the oven freezer serving set. And they were both packaged in a set that included one clear lid and two metal lids. And I know where I am in Canada at least those metal lids are very hard to come by. I think I have maybe one of them that I was lucky enough to find on Facebook Marketplace, and that's one that I will never resell. That one will stay in my collection, and I'm always on the lookout for more of those metal lids. Now, the Gold Acorn did have a prototype, and they were the 473, 474 and 475. They were the round casseroles with clear lids, and these ones were not standard production items. They have resurfaced in this pattern and are being said that they're possibly manufactured as test items in the early 1960s. Bex Scott: [00:07:00] So next up, you'll see there's a bit of a theme here with which patterns I don't love. We have the Golden Honeysuckle, so it's not all gold that I dislike. There are quite a few patterns, especially the promotional ones that have gold. There's just something about these ones that have the vines or the flowers that I don't know why, it just doesn't do it for me. The Golden Honeysuckle 1963 to 1965. It was testing, Corning was testing the market with new shapes and sizes of casseroles. And I think that's maybe why this one I don't love so much. Now, I've owned all of the Golden Honeysuckle, and they are really nice to bake casseroles in and to heat things in because they're nice and long and they're really deep. There's also shallow ones for vegetables, which is great. But to me, this isn't the standard Pyrex that I know and love. They released four casseroles, and they featured a unique square shape designed by William M Curtis. Bex Scott: [00:08:09] To ensure the gold pattern adhered properly casseroles were sprayed white on top of the opal glass. Walnut serving trays were also available in one size, a 935 that fit the two smaller casseroles, while another size, 958, fit the two larger casseroles. The serving trays were sold separately and also packaged with the casseroles when sold as a set. And these casseroles were sold individually and you have the 033, 035, 055, 058, 935 which is the tray and the 958 which is the tray. And then it came as a casserole serving set. So you have the 33, the 35, the 55 and the 58. And then there were casserole prototypes. So after the casserole style was patented in 1961, Corning tested the new shapes with many different designs. These prototype items are quite rare, but can be found in many patterns such as Early American, Green Scroll, White Snowflake on Turquoise, and White Compass on Turquoise. Bex Scott: [00:09:17] Okay, the next one. This is going to be no surprise because I've talked about it at length on many of my episodes. That Old Orchard is my least favorite pattern. And there's tons of memes out there about poor Old Orchard. And it really doesn't get a lot of love. So I would really like to know how many collectors out there or just people in general, like the Old Orchard pattern. And if you have examples of how you've styled Old Orchard in your shelves with other items, I would really like to see them because this is one pattern that is very interesting to me, and I'm sure it will look great in a fall assembly of just different items, so feel free to shoot them over to me on Instagram. Bex Scott: [00:10:06] So Old Orchard was 1973 to 1977 and it contained a mix of pattern pieces, solid colored pieces and pieces with brown shading sprayed around the top of the bowl, so it gave it kind of an ombre effect. It was designed by Corning artist Estelle G. Rothstein, and it was released in late 1973. The lids were solid brown applied to opal glass. However, by 1977 the brown lids were replaced by clear lids, and I have maybe 1 or 2 of these pieces. Actually, I think I have most of the Cinderella Bowl set and a few of the round casseroles, but I've only ever found one of the solid brown lids, and it does look nice when you put a solid brown lid on the solid bottomed pattern. But the clear ones are definitely more popular to find with this set. So this set came in a three piece and a four piece mixing bowl from 1973 to 77. So you have the 401, 2, 3 and 4, and it alternates from the pattern, the fruit pattern to the brown tan fade, fruit pattern, brown tan fade. So you have an alternating pattern for your stack. And then that's the same for the Cinderella bowls. It was a four piece Cinderella bowl set. Bex Scott: [00:11:28] And then you have the four piece refrigerator set as well. It was two 501s that are different colors. One was solid dark brown and the other was solid caramel. Next up you have the three piece bake, serve and store set. And this was round casseroles in the three piece with brown opal lids from 1973 through to early 77. In the last few months of production, the opal lids were replaced like the clear lids like it mentioned before. So you have the 471, 472 and the 473. And then it came in the three piece casserole set, and it typically included brown opal lids, which were then replaced by the clear lids as well. So this set was the 473, 474 and 475. Next you have your oval casseroles, your oval divided serving dish, and then the covered casserole, the four quart round covered casserole, also known as a Bertha. And it came with the round knob lid, which was the 664 four quart round casserole Old Orchard pattern clear single knob lid. There was also Harvest promotional items that went with the set. Two of the round casseroles 473 and 475 were offered as promotional items, called Harvest in 1974. They included a brown hugger, if you guys haven't seen that, it's the plastic little stand with the handles that just fits around the casserole dish, and a decorated clear lid with a leaf design. Unlike standard Old Orchard items, the promotional items did not include a brown shade effect at the top of the bowls. The smaller casserole has a dark orange background and the larger has a light orange background. These ones, because they're not the ombre brown, I actually like them a little bit more. Bex Scott: [00:13:30] And last but not least, in the five patterns that I don't really love so much, we have Forest Fancies. So I've been on the fence about Forest Fancies for a very long time because I do like anything with a mushroom on it. And mushrooms are so popular, they resell like crazy. I actually had somebody I sold another set to ask me to source a Forest Fancies set for them. So there's definitely people who love these ones. This, out of all of the ones I've mentioned, is probably the one that I like the most out of the five, but it still unfortunately made my list. So Forest Fancies was released in the mid 1980s on a limited number of items, specifically nesting mixing bowl sets, and round casseroles. The design was sold as Forest in Canada, and it was discontinued during the second half of 1986, when all opal Pyrex ceased production. Backstamps only contain metric units, although boxes included both metric and imperial measures. Since the mid 1970s, kitchen decor was increasingly dominated by earthy elements such as fruits and mushrooms. Like I was saying, that's all really popular right now. All of the the earthy mushroom fruits and vegetables. And Corning's response to the trend resulted in this pattern, and it was designed by Corning artist Mark G. Rubin. Bex Scott: [00:15:00] Reusable plastic containers with airtight lids had replaced the practicality of glass refrigerator and freezer storage dishes, resulting in the discontinuation of many Pyrex items such as oval casseroles, divided dishes, and refrigerator sets. So this one came in a three piece and a four piece mixing bowl set, and the four piece mixing bowl set was discontinued in 83, while the three piece remained available through 1986. And that was the 401 through 404. Then there was the four piece Cinderella Bowl set, and that was the 441 to 444. I haven't actually seen a lot of the Cinderella bowls around where I live, but I have seen quite a few of the mixing bowl sets, and I've never actually seen any of the round casseroles in real life, so that would be kind of a cool set to have, I have to admit. So it was the three piece bake set and serve store set from 1980 to 1985, and they all had clear lids. There was the 471, 472 and the 473, and those ones are actually kind of cute. And in the picture here, they're propped up next to a 470 set with a counter saver. So it was like a placemat for your counter. You could probably cut things on it and it had a little, it has the little Forest Fancies pattern on the bottom right hand corner. Bex Scott: [00:16:28] Okay, so they also have the three piece casserole set in the 473 to 475, as well as the one and a half quart covered round casserole, which was sold individually, so the 474 was sold in the casserole set as well as on its own. You also have the 475, which was sold on its own through 1980 to 1983. Then there was also a two piece casserole set, and that was the 473 to 474 so there's all these different combinations where you could get a three piece, a two piece, buy them individually, and then they talk about the Counter Savers, which were available from 1985 to 1991. And it says two sizes of glass counter savers, marketed as Mushroom, were launched around 85 to match the Forest Fancies design. So you had a 12 by 15 and then a 16 by 20. Those would be cute to have on your countertop. Bex Scott: [00:17:34] Okay, so those are my top five least liked of the standard Pyrex patterns. I'll have another episode that goes into the promotional items that aren't on the top of my list, but in the meantime, I'll add in some more positive things that I like episodes just to balance it out for you guys. But I would love to hear your thoughts on the ones that I don't love and tell me the ones that also aren't your top Pyrex patterns. Follow me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex and we can start a conversation there. Feel free to send me photos of all of your awesome displays and I will see you next time.

CLIMATE ACTION SHOWDECEMBER 16TH 2024Produced by Vivien Langford NEWCASTLE 2024 PROTESTIVAL WITH RISING TIDE Recorded on the beach and at the Protestival village, you will hear voices from many climate action groups and concerned citizens.After a week of informative quiet and peacefulworkshops and a concert with Peter Garrett the Sunday morning opened on a day of arrestable action in the shipping lanes of the greatest coal port in the world.I had sat throught the supreme court case weeks before, which only suceeded in making the event more newsworthy and risky. There was a lot of media there but I am not sure they will convey to you just how well informed, strategic and committed this diverse group is. You will hear:A 16 year old girl tearful about the cruel future we are creating. A 90 year old woman who kayaked out fpour times into the shipping lanes and was disappointed that the police just kept towing her back.Sunday began with a Maori climate warrior taking us up a notch with the haka.Julie Fraser a unionist from Darwin speaks about a shift in priorities from subsidising coal exports, to supporting the care sector in all its forms. A Doctor for the environment and former ecologist spoke about th unexpected consequences of bush fires and floods. June Norman intoduced Oldies Rising Dr Roger Smith spoke of the peaceful nature of this gathering and a woman in Turquoise explained the urgent need for our government to tax the coal exports and support a workers transition. NSW MP Sue Higginson described what had happened in the Supreme Court and how the NSW Premier Minns had tried to stop this very determined protest against new coal and gas projects. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/nov/24/climate-activism-rising-tide-protest-newscastle-coal-port Greens Leader Adam Bandt was there, fielding questions about our international reputation and the folly of our government continuing to open new coal and gas projects.https://www.instagram.com/adambandt/reel/DCv2iPtzp6C/ Federal MP David Shoebridge praised the people of Newcastle and those who have come from all over the country to protest this ongoing trade. Zack Schofield the media spokesperson from Rising Tide deftly handled "gotcha" questions from the media asserting that surely an industry that ruins a safe climate for future generation is criminal. Two intrepid knitting nanas who have locked themselves on to logging machinery because saving the forests is climate action, tell us a circus story. It features Barnaby Joyce, Tanya Plibersek and Anthony Albanese with a tiny wind turbine and a giant submarine stuffed down his pants. As in all circus acts there is a tight rope and in this case "the tightrope of our future" is navigated by a two year old child, her mother and grandmother. Bev Smiles from Mudgee Coal Alert speaks about how coal mine expansions will endanger the underground water resource. Bob Brown once called Bev a true patriot and a national treasure as she keeps up the battle against the mining giants.Here she is speaking to NSW Parliament.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxXNePCX3EcIf you are inspired by these voices and would like to get involved : https://www.risingtide.org.au/
Since January 2021, hospitals and health systems have been required to post the prices of standard charges publicly. The goal of the Hospital Price Transparency Rule has been to increase competition and bring down the cost of healthcare for consumers. Since the regulation went into effect three years ago, researchers at Turquoise Health wanted to see if the market had responded.

Bex Scott welcomes guest Dariya from The Thrifty Fox Shop to talk about her love of Pyrex and how many vintage collections she maintains. Bex met Dariya on Instagram and credits her with getting Bex onto Whatnot. They talk extensively about Pyrex, from their favorite pieces to their greatest finds, but as Dariya has an enthusiasm for a great variety of vintage items, there's more than Pyrex to explore in this episode. Dariya, like many collectors, got into vintage collecting via her mom. She truly leaned into Pyrex around age sixteen and hasn't stopped since. Pyrex and thrifting for vintage items is a family affair for Dariya too, as both her mom and sister are as avid about collecting as she is. She shares some of her most memorable Pyrex finds with Bex and they discuss their most and least loved patterns as well as which Pyrex dish both their husbands manage to explode during use. Beyond Pyrex, Dariya introduces Bex to her love of crewel embroidery, vintage mushrooms, glass animals, lucite flowers, vintage linens, brass, and many more of her very eclectic collections. Dariya's philosophy is to collect what makes you happy and decorate the same way, so tune in to find out just what pieces bring her the most joy in her home.

And on today's episode, I have my friend and fellow vintage reseller Dariya from the Thrifty Fox Shop. Welcome, Dariya. Dariya: [00:00:43] Hello. Bex Scott: [00:00:44] How's it going? Dariya: [00:00:45] Oh, good. Bex Scott: [00:00:47] Nice. I see you have your awesome Halloween display behind you. Dariya: [00:00:51] I do. We couldn't wait to start decorating for October, so we started in mid-September for decorating Halloween. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:00:59] That's how my family is but with Christmas. Dariya: [00:01:01] Oh, fair. Bex Scott: [00:01:02] My mom starts decorating the day after Halloween for Christmas, so I've kind of-- Dariya: [00:01:05] -- oh, wow-- Bex Scott: [00:01:06] -- got that Christmas bug from her. Dariya: [00:01:08] Yeah. That makes sense. Bex Scott: [00:01:10] Mhm. So I wanted to start off kind of with how we met. So we met on Instagram. I was following you for a while. And then I came across your Instagram story about your Whatnot show. And it was a Christmas show which is one of my favorite things obviously. And I watched your show got some amazing things from you and you helped me get into the Whatnot selling, which I'm very grateful for that. Dariya: [00:01:37] I actually didn't know that. Bex Scott: [00:01:38] You're the first person I found out about Whatnot through. And you made selling look so easy. And I remember a while back in some of the episodes I was talking about how I thought Whatnot was difficult because you have to be, like, on for an entire hour and talking and kind of, I'm a very severe introvert, so doing Whatnot is kind of stress-inducing. But I've loved it so far. Dariya: [00:02:05] Yeah, once you get into it, then you find yourself more comfortable and stuff. Yeah, because I'm also an introvert and I never thought I'd ever do lives in my entire life. But hey, look at us go. Bex Scott: [00:02:16] Yeah, yeah, yeah. Your one year just passed on Whatnot. And I think mine is coming up sometime soon, so. Dariya: [00:02:23] Yeah. You'll have to do a show. Bex Scott: [00:02:24] Yeah. For everybody listening, come find us on Whatnot. We have an awesome group of Canadian sellers. So how did your Pyrex and your vintage collecting begin? Dariya: [00:02:35] With my mom. She's always, yeah, it's always someone in the family that gets you hooked. Yeah. My mom always loved, like, antiques and vintage. And so, you know, growing up around that. And then I kind of got my own style going, which has changed drastically over the last, like, years. When I started collecting, which was probably when I was 16, I started collecting, I've always like collected knickknacks, like ever since I was a little girl. But Pyrex was when around 16 when I started collecting all the Pyrex and I've never stopped. Bex Scott: [00:03:09] It's good. A good collection you have going. Then for all that time, I. Dariya: [00:03:12] Think of all the stuff I left behind at that time when all the prices were good. So many regrets. Bex Scott: [00:03:17] Yeah, that's what a lot of collectors I've talked to say. Like, if they would have known that, they should have just grabbed things when they saw it. Yeah. Dariya: [00:03:26] And the stuff that I started collecting nowadays and just thinking about what I could have left behind back then. Oh, man. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:03:35] So your mom kind of got you into it. Does your mom still collect Pyrex? Dariya: [00:03:40] She does. Yeah, and so does my sister. So all three of us collect Pyrex and other collections we kind of share the same love for. So we're either fighting or finding each other stuff. Bex Scott: [00:03:52] Yeah, I was going to say, when you go thrifting together, how do you decide who gets to keep what? Dariya: [00:03:56] Basically, whoever finds it, gets it. Or else if one of us has something, then we'll, yeah, let whoever has it get the first dibs. But it's a competition sometimes, that's for sure. Bex Scott: [00:04:09] I guess I'm lucky that way that I don't have any family competition. If anybody finds anything, they know to just give it straight to me. And I don't have to fight my mom over anything. Dariya: [00:04:19] Well, and whenever one of us starts a new collection, we all get hooked. So then it's like there's no winning. Bex Scott: [00:04:26] That's awesome. Dariya: [00:04:27] Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:04:27] I guess on the flip side, that would be really fun if you had people in your family who you could go thrifting with and kind of had the same interests as you. Dariya: [00:04:35] Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:04:37] Cool. And what have been your best Pyrex finds so far? Dariya: [00:04:42] I think my best one was the two pieces of pink Butterprint at a garage sale and, in Alberta, which you never see pink Butterprint? And it was posted online and I, like, messaged them because it was a bit of a drive and I had like two little kids, so I was like, okay, like I'd love to get these, but would you be able to hold them? Because I don't want to drive there and get there and them not being there. So they held them for me and I paid 60 bucks for two of them, which is high for a garage sale. But like, again, pink Butterprint. Bex Scott: [00:05:13] That's good. Dariya: [00:05:14] Yeah, yeah. So I kept one and then gave one to my sister. Bex Scott: [00:05:18] Lucky sister. Dariya: [00:05:20] I know. Would have been nice if there was three. And then I could have given one to my mom too, but yeah. Bex Scott: [00:05:26] Yeah. Dariya: [00:05:26] No, I think that was, I was trying to, like, wrack my brain and that was definitely one of my best Pyrex scores. Bex Scott: [00:05:33] Yeah. That's really good. Especially at a garage sale. That never happens. Dariya: [00:05:37] And I'm so curious as to how they got the pink Butterprint, because I think it was only for the States and you had to get them through coupons or something? So it's curious to know how they got all the way up to Alberta. Bex Scott: [00:05:50] Interesting. Yeah, I think I found a set of the Butterprint. It was in a Value Village and only one of the bowls was good, but it was still, it was still a good find, right? Dariya: [00:06:03] Yeah, yeah, I'd love to find an orange. The orange Butterprint, but... Bex Scott: [00:06:08] Oh yeah. Yeah. I keep seeing listings through Facebook for them and I'm tempted. Dariya: [00:06:13] But that price tag. Bex Scott: [00:06:15] Yeah like $750, $1000. Dariya: [00:06:18] Yeah. No. Nope. Bex Scott: [00:06:22] Cool. And what would you say is your holy grail piece, if you, you might already have it. But if you don't have it what would it be? Dariya: [00:06:28] I don't actually. I still need that Starburst Pyrex. I was trying to think. Starburst, I kind of have three. Starburst. What's the - Pink Stems. And then this isn't Pyrex, but I really love like, a amethyst. Amethyst, Amethyst, Amethyst I don't know, um, Vikings swung vase. So those are like my three holy grails. Yeah, yeah. But yeah. Do you have a Starburst? Bex Scott: [00:06:54] I don't. Dariya: [00:06:55] I know, like, they're like they seem common enough. But the price tag again is just like, hmm, yeah. Bex Scott: [00:07:02] And you see photos of people who have like ten of them in their collection. Dariya: [00:07:05] Just hand one over to me. Please, please. I did see a Starburst at a antique, at the Antique Mall in Edmonton. Bex Scott: [00:07:13] Oh, yeah. Dariya: [00:07:14] And I think it was like $2,000. So I was like, oh, that was like, look at you from through the glass. Bex Scott: [00:07:19] Yeah. Take a picture. And then just, that's as close as I'm going to get. Dariya: [00:07:22] Pretty much. I was like, I was right beside it, but that's about it. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:07:26] Yeah. And do you want the turquoist? Turquoist? That's not a word. Turquoise. That's my my 14 year old son, he's infected me. He says turquoist. I'm gonna have to tell him now. He's gonna be proud. Dariya: [00:07:36] Yeah. You know, my husband's always, like, deliberately mispronouncing things. And now I call, like, quesadilla a quesadillo. You know, I'm, like, so dumb, so dumb. Bex Scott: [00:07:47] Try this again. Turquoise. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Do you want that one or, I think there's a cream one, right? Dariya: [00:07:53] I'd probably want the turquoise. Yeah. The cream one's nice, but like. And there's a black one too, I think. Bex Scott: [00:07:58] Yes. Yeah. Dariya: [00:08:00] I mean, the black one would be nice for a Halloween display. Bex Scott: [00:08:02] It would. Yeah. Dariya: [00:08:04] But I would definitely take the turquoise one. Bex Scott: [00:08:06] Me too. Dariya: [00:08:07] Mhm. Just need to thrift one. Bex Scott: [00:08:09] Oh that would be great. Dariya: [00:08:11] Right? Bex Scott: [00:08:11] That would be a start the car moment. I'd push everybody away in the aisles. Give it to me. Dariya: [00:08:16] Yeah. I must go pay for this. Bex Scott: [00:08:18] Yeah. And do you have any favorite patterns outside of your holy grail? Dariya: [00:08:27] I have to say, I mean, I love a lot of the patterns, but my favorite one is the Zodiac one, which is right there. You can see behind me. Yeah. The Zodiac 475 casserole dish. I didn't even know I wanted it, and then my husband surprised me with it for Christmas one year. And it's like, hands down, the best Christmas present ever. Bex Scott: [00:08:48] No kidding. Dariya: [00:08:49] I kind of forgot that there was a Zodiac Pyrex available, so when I opened it up for Christmas, I was so excited. And yeah, it's definitely my favorite. Favorite Christmas gift ever. Bex Scott: [00:08:58] That's a good gift from your husband. He's great at gift giving. Dariya: [00:09:02] Yeah, he did pretty good. They need to make more of the Zodiac line. I'm, too bad that they didn't, but I can see how the gold is kind of hard and. Mhm. Bex Scott: [00:09:11] Yeah. Dariya: [00:09:12] You need that one. Bex Scott: [00:09:13] Are there any patterns that you really dislike? Dariya: [00:09:16] I mean I'm not a big fan of the Woodland Pyrex. I know a lot of people like that. I don't mind the lighter brown one, but the dark brown one is like mmm. And then I'm trying to think, there's another brown one I'm not a big fan of. Bex Scott: [00:09:29] The Old Orchard one? Dariya: [00:09:30] Yeah. Yeah. The Old Orchard one. Yeah. Other than that I'm like, I don't mind any of the other Pyrex, but the Old Orchard one just grinds my gears. Bex Scott: [00:09:40] Yeah. It's weird. Dariya: [00:09:42] Yeah. And I know some people like to exclusively collect that one, but I'm like, no. Bex Scott: [00:09:47] It must have been, I don't know, it would be interesting to get in the mind of whoever designed that one because-- Dariya: [00:09:54] Right? Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:09:55] Maybe the colors on its own without the design on top would be kind of okay? Dariya: [00:10:01] But yeah. Yeah, it's that design. I wouldn't mind it so much without the design. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bex Scott: [00:10:09] And do you use your Pyrex is a big question for collectors. Dariya: [00:10:12] I'm like 50/50. I use, I have Pyrex, my Pyrex cupboard of items that I use and then my display Pyrex, which is like usually the harder to find or harder to replace pieces I display only. And I don't let my husband or children touch. But yeah, you got like those workhorses people call them. Yeah, I use those and I use my Autumn Harvest set of mixing bowls quite frequently. But yeah. So I'm like 50/50 split. Bex Scott: [00:10:43] That's how I am as well. I have my pink cabinet that I've actually started to take pieces of it out to let my son, he made banana bread with it yesterday. Dariya: [00:10:56] Oh, nice. Bex Scott: [00:10:57] He was very gentle, which is good. Dariya: [00:10:58] Yeah. Yeah. I've had a few Pyrex explode in the oven, so I'm like, definitely not my, can't put my favorite pieces in the oven. Yeah. Yeah. But I could display with like cookies or something in them. Bex Scott: [00:11:14] Mhm. I brought home a Bertha, I can't remember which one it was, but my husband used it on the stove top. Dariya: [00:11:23] Oh no. Bex Scott: [00:11:23] And I told him to take a video of himself cooking. I didn't know he was going to use it on the stove top. It was going to be like a cooking kind of Pyrex thing. Yeah. And it blew up in the video, and he was doing some kind of roast with wine. And it, in the video, I have to find it and put it on my Instagram. Dariya: [00:11:41] You will. Bex Scott: [00:11:42] I know I've talked about it before, but red wine exploded everywhere, all over the ceiling, all over the walls. And he called me and he's like, I did something bad. Dariya: [00:11:53] Very bad. It was the Big Bertha for me too, but in the oven that exploded. So there must be something with those big Bertha's. Bex Scott: [00:12:03] Yeah, because they're just too big. Dariya: [00:12:05] Yeah, and it was, like, pristine condition, too. And, like, I couldn't find any flaw in it, so there must have been just like, some kind of, like, small little hairline crack somewhere or something that I just couldn't see. And yeah. So that's wild that it, but worse for you. Because everywhere, like, at least it was contained in the oven for us. Bex Scott: [00:12:25] Luckily he had it all cleaned up by the time I got home. And then I was able to find another one like a week later. Dariya: [00:12:32] Oh thank goodness. Because yeah, I'd be like, I'm not cleaning that up. That was on you. Bex Scott: [00:12:35] No, no. That's like a hazmat level. Bring somebody in. Clean every surface. Wine everywhere. Dariya: [00:12:42] Yeah. Yeah, totally. Oh my goodness. Bex Scott: [00:12:46] What else do you love to collect? I know on your Instagram you have the best taste and your photos are amazing. I always like creeping to see what you have new for me to buy. Dariya: [00:12:58] I start a new collection somewhere or something. I wrote, I wrote down some of my collections because I was like, I'm going to forget. And even this isn't even all that I collected. There's so much more. But I think, oh, here we go. So I have, I put too much first of all, and then I collect, vintage crewel embroideries, anything like vintage mushroom, like Merry Mushroom, any kind of any groovy mushroom thing. Vintage glass, like swung vases and like glass animals I've kind of starting to get into. Vintage pottery, Lucite flowers, linens, vintage Halloween and Christmas. Vintage brass. Lefton pink poodle chef. And I could go on and on, but like, that's like the main ones. Bex Scott: [00:13:45] Yeah. Dariya: [00:13:45] But yeah, like, there's so many. Like any MCM groovy thing I can get my hands on, which is so hard to find where I am. Bex Scott: [00:13:53] Yeah. No kidding. Especially nice mushroom stuff. I have the worst luck finding it, and whenever I do, it's very overpriced. Or it's broken. Dariya: [00:14:06] Yeah, yeah, I usually I, yeah, rarely do I find something in the wild anymore. I usually have to buy something for my mushroom collection. Yeah. Oh. Bex Scott: [00:14:16] And you, what's the word, you crewel. Is that how you say it, you crewel? Dariya: [00:14:20] Crewel? Yeah, I know my husband always jokes that I'm so cruel to my crewel. I'm like, funny dad joke. Bex Scott: [00:14:29] And how long have you been doing that for? Dariya: [00:14:32] I'm trying to. I think I want to say when the pandemic started is when I really started taking it up. And I bought a few kits online to try, and then, yeah, I was just hooked. So that would have been, what, like five years? Six years? No, four years. Four years ish. So four years I've been doing it and yeah, I, I love it. And then I got my mom into it and my sister tried, but she doesn't have the patience for it. So I just make crewels for her. She buys me kits and then I do them up for her. But it's nice because I have like followers that like, keep an eye out for crewel kits for me and I'll, they'll mail them to me and it's awesome. Bex Scott: [00:15:14] That's fun. Yeah. It's like your own little personal shoppers. Dariya: [00:15:18] Yeah. They're like, I found this and I thought of you immediately. I was like, perfect. I will take it. Thank you. Bex Scott: [00:15:26] I started a crewel last year and I still haven't finished it. Dariya: [00:15:32] I know it's, sometimes I like don't pick it up for a couple days and then I'm like, I need to get back into it. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:15:39] Okay. And what would you say is your all time favorite piece of vintage that you've thrifted? Dariya: [00:15:44] A Catherine Holm like Turquoise Bowl, and it's probably like the nine inch one for $1. It was like years ago, probably like seven years ago, but it was like my best find ever. And it was sitting in the thrift store window. It was like a small town thrift store, and I could see it from the outside. And I was walking in with my sister in law, and I basically pushed back past her, and I was like, I gotta go, I gotta go, and I grabbed it and yeah, it was a dollar. Bex Scott: [00:16:13] Oh, wow. Dariya: [00:16:14] I've never, ever thrifted another Catherine Holm or found one like for that price in the wild before. It was crazy. Bex Scott: [00:16:21] And did you keep that? Dariya: [00:16:21] And in amazing shape. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's upstairs in my room. I'm like, I don't think I could ever part with it just because it was such a good deal. Bex Scott: [00:16:27] No kidding. Dariya: [00:16:28] Yeah, Bex Scott: [00:16:29] I have never. I don't have any Catherine Holm because I'm too scared to start that collection because it's so expensive. Dariya: [00:16:36] I guess I should say I do have a Catherine Holm collection too, and it is expensive, but I've, like I found. Well, I guess this isn't a thrift find, but it kind of is, it was on Etsy and from a shop in France. I got the green shaker canister sets from Catherine Holm for $20. Bex Scott: [00:16:57] Wow. Dariya: [00:16:57] Yeah. And the shipping for here was only $30, so it was like 50 bucks for the set. And usually those are like a couple hundred at least. And it was a brand new in the box, too. They had never been used. So. Bex Scott: [00:17:08] Do you think they just didn't know what it was? Dariya: [00:17:11] I think so because most of their stuff in their shop was like teacups and like plates and like that kind of stuff. So this was kind of like something wholly different for them. And it was labeled like enamel shaker set. Bex Scott: [00:17:23] Oh, yeah. Dariya: [00:17:24] Or spice set. Yeah. So I was like, oh, wow. And it had been listed for months too. And I just must have searched the right thing. And it came up and I was like, okay, add to cart. And yeah, they were in pristine condition when they arrived. And so that's another Catherine Holm score I had. Bex Scott: [00:17:40] That's amazing. Dariya: [00:17:41] Apparently I get some scores with the Catherine Holm. Bex Scott: [00:17:43] I need your luck. That'd be great. Yeah. I think back to how many things I've sold over the years that I probably didn't know what they were, and somebody got an amazing deal. Dariya: [00:17:54] Right? Yeah, I think about that too, especially in the early days of reselling, like, oh. Bex Scott: [00:18:01] Why are 20 people contacting me all at once for this bowl? Oh. That was a mistake. Dariya: [00:18:07] Yeah. But like, I'm not going to be one of those people who, like, say, oh, I'm going to raise the price. Like, I'll sell it for what I listed it for because that's my loss that I didn't research enough. But I hate it when some people say, yeah, it's available, you can come pick it up and then like an hour later, they're like, oh, apparently I can get more for it. So now I'm starting a bidding war and I'm like, oh no. Bex Scott: [00:18:27] That's so shifty. Dariya: [00:18:29] Yeah, it is. Just is. You got to honor that price you give because that's your mistake. Bex Scott: [00:18:34] Yeah, yeah. There's somebody that did that around my area with some mid-century lamps. And they were the really nice tall ones with, like, the atomic looking. Dariya: [00:18:44] Oh, yeah. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:18:45] What's it called lamp pole? Yeah, but that's not. It's not a... yeah. Yeah and I wanted to buy them, and then they didn't get back to me, and they were relisted for like, 100 something dollars instead of 20. So. Dariya: [00:19:02] Yeah. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. That's so annoying. Marketplace sucks for that. Bex Scott: [00:19:07] It does. It's a fun hunt still, though. Dariya: [00:19:10] So it is. Yeah. Yeah. There's still gems to be found. Bex Scott: [00:19:12] Yeah. What would you say you know the most about in all of your collecting journey? Dariya: [00:19:21] Probably Pyrex, because it's the oldest collection I have. And then crewel embroidery and vintage linens would be like second. But I'm slowly learning more and more about vintage glass and how many different, like, vintage glass. Like whether it's Scandinavian or American glass. I'm still slowly learning more about that, which is kind of my goal, because there's just so much to learn about and know about. Same with, like, pottery. Vintage pottery. Bex Scott: [00:19:52] Oh, yeah. Dariya: [00:19:52] Canadian pottery. There's some really great pottery pieces out there, so I'm kind of starting to learn more. Watch some, like Whatnot pottery shows and like, learn more about the designers and stuff. So that's like kind of my goal to learn more about vintage pottery and glass. Bex Scott: [00:20:10] That's something that I've wanted to learn about as well, because I see so much pottery when I go thrifting. And then I look at the bottom and there's some artist signature, and then I get overwhelmed and yeah, I can't Google Lens it, so I give up. Dariya: [00:20:24] Yeah, yeah. Same. So I'm like I try and go with my gut. Sometimes my gut like is wrong and I leave something behind. And then I'm like, I shouldn't have left that. But yeah, but yeah, if it's nice and cute I'll still buy it. Just got to imagine if it's going to stay in my house for a while or if it's going to go. Bex Scott: [00:20:41] Yeah. Dariya: [00:20:42] Yeah. But Strawberry Hill Pottery I'm really liking. Bex Scott: [00:20:46] Oh yeah I think I've seen that. Dariya: [00:20:47] Their designs are gorgeous. Yeah, I got a mouse off of Marketplace. Cute. And then I found a bluebird on Whatnot, and it was, like, only $10 on Whatnot, so I was like, oh, I'll take that. Bex Scott: [00:21:01] Yeah, I'll have to look that up. Bluebirds, all the little, the Lefton and the Norcrest bluebirds. Dariya: [00:21:09] Yeah. You'd like this one because it's really pretty and it's kind of got that Bluebird vibe. Bex Scott: [00:21:15] Nice. And you mentioned vintage linens. I love vintage linens as well. Dariya: [00:21:20] I know I bought some many a linen from you. Bex Scott: [00:21:26] Oh, it's always exciting when you find the really brightly colored, like, great condition ones. I see so many that are faded or you think they're good, and then you start opening them and there's weird stains and holes, and... Dariya: [00:21:38] It's because they always have them in their garages. I go to a garage sale and they've got the pretty Wabasso sheets hung over their like, garage furniture, and I'm just like, I'll buy that. Like, I really like that. And I'll say like, oh, I use that on my bed right now. And they're like, why? I'm like, yeah, that's it's cute. Bex Scott: [00:21:55] Yeah, I'll buy your painting dropcloth that's on your garage floor. Dariya: [00:22:00] Exactly. Like how dare you? They're just looking at me like I'm crazy. Yeah. I have so many linens. Bex Scott: [00:22:09] And do they have specific pattern names? Because I don't know a lot about them. But are there patterns that are more sought after or...? Dariya: [00:22:17] Usually like the brand. Like, I know there are pattern names, but I can't remember off the top of my head, but like Wabasso like with the groovy floral daisies and stuff like that. And they come in different color schemes and in the rainbow. I can't remember the brand, but the rainbow, 80s rainbow sheets, they got really famous after Stranger Things. Bex Scott: [00:22:37] Right! Yeah. Dariya: [00:22:37] Yeah. So those are always like pretty sought after and higher end items. But yeah, I always just, anything groovy-ish, floral, like a rainbow, I always grab and my closet is overflowing with linens. But I use them and they're great. Honestly, they're great sheets. Bex Scott: [00:22:58] Mhm. I remember finding a set at the Salvation Army and I took them up to the till and the lady was like, why would you want to buy these? I remember these from when I was a teenager and they're so ugly. I was like, well thanks. Dariya: [00:23:11] Yeah. But not everyone thinks they're ugly because people are still buying them. Bex Scott: [00:23:15] Yeah, I'm going to use these and I'm going to love them. Dariya: [00:23:17] Yes. Give them a life. And I like how people upcycle with them, too, even if they're, you know, they may not be perfect to use anymore on the bed, but like, they can upcycle and make bags out of them and stuff, so it's great. Bex Scott: [00:23:29] Yeah. Or the, I asked my mom if she could take an old vintage towel and make, like, shorts or a hoodie for me, I love that. Dariya: [00:23:39] I bought a vintage towel shirt from someone in Calgary and it's so awesome. Like, and it's so cute and comfy in the summertime too. And yeah, I've even seen, like, bucket hats. Bex Scott: [00:23:50] Oh, that would be nice too. Dariya: [00:23:52] And there's someone on Instagram, I think it was Thrifters Delight on Instagram who took towel scraps and glued them to her vans. So then they looked like towel shoes. Bex Scott: [00:24:03] That's awesome. Dariya: [00:24:03] They're, and it was like, I'm not making it sound great, but it's like amazing looking. Like, you'll have to look it up too. I want to try that someday. Bex Scott: [00:24:12] Yeah. I saw somebody on Instagram who took old, like, Disney duvets and made them into little jackets. Dariya: [00:24:19] Yeah, like little puffer jackets and stuff. They're like $350. I need to be talented enough to sew myself, but I am not. Home Ec was not my strong point. Bex Scott: [00:24:31] Neither. No. Oh, yeah. I remember doing Home Ec with my friend and her sewing machine caught on fire, and I think that was the end of it for me. I was like, nope, I'm not sewing. Dariya: [00:24:41] Yeah, yeah. No, I would not either. Well, that was with me and IE class like first day teacher left me with the bandsaw and I nearly sliced my finger off and I had to go to the hospital and get stitches. Bex Scott: [00:24:53] Oh that's scary. Dariya: [00:24:54] I never went back into that class again. I was exempt. Bex Scott: [00:25:00] Almost lost a limb. Exempt. Dariya: [00:25:02] Yeah, yeah. They're like, she's not allowed in there. Bex Scott: [00:25:05] Yeah. Oh, and do you decorate your house with your vintage finds? Dariya: [00:25:12] Oh, yes. My husband built me a bunch of, like, floating shelves for the living room. So I have, like, six shelves, and they're honestly, they're, like, filled to the brim, but they look good. Bex Scott: [00:25:22] That's amazing. Dariya: [00:25:23] And, yeah, like, all my walls, I have, like, a mushroom gallery wall and, yeah, everywhere and anywhere I can get a little collection in and it's kind of fun too, because while I buy finished crewels, I also do a lot of the kits up myself, so I'm slowly adding to my wall each year. So it's like kind of like I can be proud of the decor because it's kind of something I'm doing on my own. So yeah. Bex Scott: [00:25:49] That's awesome. Dariya: [00:25:50] Yeah, it changes every year. Bex Scott: [00:25:52] Yeah. And then you can see the progress you've made, especially with the crewels. What it started off with and then... Dariya: [00:25:57] Yeah, I was like, oh I can't believe I did that at the beginning. Oh yeah. Bex Scott: [00:26:05] And how have you found reselling so far? I know that you've been reselling for quite a while, right? Dariya: [00:26:12] Yeah. When my first son was born, I kind of started not too long after he was born, I want to say, yeah, a few months. I just, like, I've always, like, loved buying vintage and then I kind of caught the bug to do a bit of reselling. And since I wasn't working anymore, it was kind of my way of like, earning my own money because, I mean, it was like, obviously my husband's money is my money too. But I wanted like, my own little squirrel nest for fun money and stuff like that. So that's kind of how I started. And I've just, yeah, I've really enjoyed doing it. It's been pretty good. I mean, it always has, I notice, like, it slows down and then it gets busy again. And, but that's kind of how I roll too, because I just list and post when I have the time. So, yeah, Christmas time is always nice and busy. Bex Scott: [00:27:04] Yeah. And it's fun finding all the little gifts you think people would like to buy in the Christmas decor. Dariya: [00:27:10] Yeah, yeah. I've had a couple times where I don't, I don't know if I pronounce this right, but Aritzia? Or is that, did I say that right? The clothing brand? Well, they bought some brass pieces from me, so. Bex Scott: [00:27:24] Oh, really? Dariya: [00:27:24] So I ship it to them. So that was fun. Bex Scott: [00:27:26] That's really cool. Dariya: [00:27:27] Yeah. I've always wanted, like, a movie set or something to buy something for me. So I was like, I'll take this. Bex Scott: [00:27:31] That's awesome. Dariya: [00:27:33] Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:27:34] I had a movie set buy an ice bucket from me once. Dariya: [00:27:37] Ooh that's exciting. Bex Scott: [00:27:38] And I can't remember what show it went into. It was a Netflix show, but that was the only thing that went somewhere else. Dariya: [00:27:45] Still so exciting. Yeah. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:27:50] Nice. And where can people find you to buy your items? Dariya: [00:27:55] Instagram. Etsy though I'm kind of solely, just I think I'm going to slowly be closing up on Etsy soon and focusing on other areas. I started on eBay and then Whatnot, of course, and Knickknacks as well. Starting kind of there. It's a lot. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:28:14] Yeah. I signed up to sell on knickknacks, and I haven't done anything with it yet. Dariya: [00:28:19] Yeah, I've done a couple shows. It's great, but it's just, yeah, one more thing for me to try and balance. So, I mean, once all the kids are in school and stuff, I can focus a bit more on online. But, yeah and then I do a few markets. I co-host a vintage market a couple times a year at Fika Coffee House in Camrose. We have like a backyard market. So yeah, you should come do it sometime. Bex Scott: [00:28:42] Yeah, I would love to. Dariya: [00:28:42] We have one this Saturday, so that's our last one of the year. And then I do an occasional market in Edmonton as well, but I'm mostly online for now. Just works perfectly for my schedule. Bex Scott: [00:28:54] Yeah. Yeah. Online is great. I, usually I started with Facebook Marketplace and then went to Whatnot and Poshmark and I used to sell a ton on Poshmark and I've kind of just let it die off. But I've gotten a few sales lately that were just out of the blue. Maybe I should go back on there. Dariya: [00:29:17] I know, yeah, like I get a random sale or two on Poshmark, but I'm like not too focused on it anymore, but it's kind of where I put like my last chance items, I guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I'm enjoying eBay, actually. I don't know why it took me so long to try it out, but yeah, I had a vintage toy collection on consignment. So I was like, well, I'll try eBay because that kind of seems like the place to do it. Bex Scott: [00:29:41] It's good for toys. Dariya: [00:29:42] And it's been, yeah, it's been good, so I'm liking it. Bex Scott: [00:29:45] I might have to pick your brain about eBay, because I've always been too scared to try it out. Dariya: [00:29:49] Yeah. Me too for some reason, I don't know why. And it's actually really easy. So. And yeah, so I think I'm going to start moving my Etsy listings over to eBay and close out my Etsy shop. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:30:01] So is your handle the same across all platforms? Thrifty Fox Shop? Dariya: [00:30:06] Yeah. Yeah. Bex Scott: [00:30:07] Perfect. So everybody can find you on all of those. Dariya: [00:30:10] Yes, exactly. Make it easy. Bex Scott: [00:30:14] And do you have any closing remarks or tips or tricks for people who want to get into vintage collecting or reselling? Dariya: [00:30:24] For reselling I say like, focus on the things that you're passionate about, because again, when you're reselling, you can tell whether you're passionate about something or if it's just something that you just picked up to sell, and it makes a difference. And because I always, I'm very picky about what I buy to resell, because I have to like it myself in order to resell it, so I'm very picky that way. But then it kind of like makes you form your shop personality, right? So you're known for selling this or, you know, mid-century modern items or kitschy items or, and you don't have to stay within those parameters, but like, that's like the main focus. And I think that helps a lot too, in gaining followers. Bex Scott: [00:31:08] Yeah I agree. Dariya: [00:31:10] Yeah. And for collecting I, honestly just collect what you love. Like some people say that they want to stay in a certain like type, like boho or, you know, and I'm like, I'm all over the place. I'm mid-century modern, I'm kitschy, I'm boho. I'm like all kinds of different. And so it's just like, collect what you love, decorate how you love to decorate. Like, I always get like, oh, but like, what about the resale value of your house? And I'm like, I don't care. Bex Scott: [00:31:38] Yeah, this is what I love. I'm going to do it. Dariya: [00:31:41] Yeah. This is what makes me happy and I'm going to paint my house a certain color to match my vintage decor. And it's, yeah, that's, I don't know why people have to live in a box and not decorate or anything. Just. Bex Scott: [00:31:53] Yeah, exactly. Dariya: [00:31:54] Decorate how you want, buy what you want. You'll be happy for it. Bex Scott: [00:31:59] I agree with all of those points. Yeah, yeah. Perfect. Well, thank you so much for being on the show today. And everybody make sure you go find Dariya on all of the platforms she mentioned at the Thrifty Fox Shop. Dariya: [00:32:15] Awesome. And I'll see you on Whatnot again. Bex Scott: [00:32:17] Yes. Sounds good. Dariya: [00:32:19] This Sunday actually. Bex Scott: [00:32:20] Yeah. It's coming up fast. Dariya: [00:32:21] Yeah. Got to get prepared.

She has also expanded the project to work with artisans in Myanmar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan (including Syrian refugees), and Palestinian artisans.Shoshana has an MBA from the London Business School, a Master's Degree in Education, and a Bachelor's Degree in Astrophysics. Before moving to Afghanistan, she taught science to eighth grade students. She is also a Senior Fellow at the Yale Jackson Institute for Global Affairs.Shoshana explains the world of cultural preservation and how artisans are supported across various regions in today's conversation with Anne. Her journey, which unexpectedly began in astrophysics, led her to a profound career in cultural heritage restoration in Afghanistan. Turquoise Mountain started with the original goal of revitalizing Kabul's architectural legacy, as Shoshana says, and now supports artisan communities in various regions of the world. Shoshana emphasizes to Anne the organization's expansive work from Afghanistan to other regions like Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Myanmar.Further going into Turquoise Mountain's initiatives, Shoshana discusses the restoration of historic sites, as well as the establishment of schools and clinics for some returned refugees, as a way to support the community they had restored. She shares compelling stories of resilience and creativity, showcasing how these efforts have helped foster global collaborations. Designers like ethical jeweller Pippa Small play a pivotal role in this story, bringing Afghan jewelry to international markets and highlighting the powerful impact of blending tradition with modern market strategies. Through these partnerships, Shoshana educates Anne on how Turquoise Mountain not only preserves cultural heritage, but also creates sustainable livelihoods for artisans.Shoshana tells Anne about her decision to pursue an MBA to address market challenges, which showcases her commitment to finding innovative solutions for artisan communities. The discussion reflects on the significant challenges posed by recent global events, including political upheavals and the COVID-19 pandemic, underscoring the resilience of the communities supported by Turquoise Mountain. The organisation's ability to maintain connections and support artisans through these turbulent times is a testament to its enduring impact.As the conversation unfolds further, Shoshana highlights the transformative power of cultural heritage in fostering connections between artisans and clients, and changing perceptions about regions often associated with conflict. Anne then touches on broader themes of mindfulness and intentional living, as Shoshana reflects on the practices that ground her amidst the ongoing challenges of her work. These insights offer a deeper understanding of how the arts can sustain communities, grow meaningful connections, and support mindful living.This interview provides a rich illustration of stories and insights from Shoshana's work with Turquoise Mountain. It paints a vivid picture of how cultural preservation and can create a positive global impact, demonstrating the importance of heritage and craftsmanship in building resilient communities.A compelling conversation with a true advocate of the global arts community.Selected links from episode:Out of the Clouds website: https://outoftheclouds.com/Out of the Clouds on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_outofthecloudsThe Mettā View website: https://avm.consulting/metta-viewAnne on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/annvi/Anne on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@annviAnne on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-v-muhlethaler/Shoshana Stewart on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shoshana-stewartTurquoise Mountain website: https://www.turquoisemountain.org/Turquoise Mountain on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/turquoisemountain/Shoshana's talk at TEDx: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo2qgHUDbRoShoshana's talk at London Business School: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ty1PzJa_YgWilliams CollegeJay Pasachoff Teach for America Yale's Jackson School for Global AffairsRory Stewart Minaret of JamThe Connaught Hotel The Prince's LodgeThe King's LodgePippa SmallGuy OliverPippa Small's Afghan-made collectionPippa Small's Olive Bethlehem collection Aliph Foundation, the Alliance for the Protection of Cultural Heritage in Conflict the British Council's Cultural Protection Fundthe American Embassy's Ambassador's Fundthe Goethe InstitutePeloton AppHannah CorbinTaylor Swift's Shake It OffPhilip Pullman's His Dark Materials This episode is brought to you by AVM Consulting Struggling to connect with your audience?

Watch the full episode here: https://integrallife.com/the-content-structure-fallacy-the-common-mistake-most-integralists-make/ What is the Content/Structure Fallacy? The Content/Structure fallacy refers to the mistaken assumption that a person's surface-level beliefs or statements (content) directly correspond to their deeper developmental stage (structure). In reality, just because someone expresses ideas that seem to align with a particular developmental level doesn't mean they are themselves operating from that level. In other words, it's not what we believe, but how we hold those beliefs that reflects our stage of development. For example, someone might champion pluralistic (Green) values but do so with the rigid, dogmatic mindset of an earlier Amber stage. This is common in certain ideological movements where progressive values are enforced in authoritarian or dogmatic ways — a clear case of later-stage content being interpreted and enacted through an earlier-stage lens. It's similar to memorizing the solution to a calculus problem without knowing how to do the math that produces that solution in the first place. Conversely, just because someone identifies with a traditionally Amber affiliation like Christianity doesn't mean they hold that faith in a purely Amber way. A person could practice Christianity through the reflective, self-authoring lens of Orange (modern) or even from an Integral (Teal or Turquoise) perspective, embodying a more complex and nuanced understanding of their faith. We often encounter stereotypes like “environmentalists must be Green” or “entrepreneurs must be Orange,” but these assumptions overlook the complexity of how individuals hold and express their values. It's possible to advocate for environmental causes (typically associated with Green) from a highly rational, results-oriented (Orange) perspective, or even from a deeply principled and disciplined (Amber) perspective. Similarly, an entrepreneur might embrace meritocratic values (Orange) but approach their business with a more inclusive, systems-aware stance (Green or Teal), or perhaps use. As such, judging someone's developmental depth based solely on their surface beliefs or affiliations is a mistake. Once the products of a given stage are socialized within a larger group, they can function more like a horizontal cultural typology than a vertical developmental structure. For example, postmodernism may have emerged from individuals at the Green stage, but as it became widely adopted across the larger culture, it was no longer exclusively populated by Green-stage individuals. Not everyone participating in postmodern culture operates from a Green stage of development. We can observe similar patterns in movements like DEI [link to Seven Sins of DEI] or even in the Integral movement [link to Integral Global]. Lastly, we must also examine our own developmental structures and how they influence our interpretation of others' content. Our judgments about others might reveal more about our own developmental limitations and blind spots than theirs. If we are using stage theory in shallow or stereotypical ways, it may indicate that we ourselves may have a content-structure fallacy built into our own self-concept, as we repeat integral-sounding content while holding it in decidedly sub-integral ways.
Send us a textDavid Bowie's “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)” is, for many fans, his last great album. Mick regards it as one of Bowie's best, with the singles "Ashes to Ashes" and "Fashion". Mick and Jeff talk through what makes this album great, and look at the music environment as Bowie, along with many other 70's greats, faced the changes and challenges of the 80's.“Knockin' on Heaven's Door” offers a long line of new entrants to Rock'n'Roll Heaven including Herbie Flowers, Tito Jackson, Kris Kristofferson and Liam Payne from One Direction. Our Album You Must Listen to Before you Die, fresh from Robert Dimery's book, is Dexy's Midnight Runners' “Don't Stand Me Down”, a massive failure on release in 1985 but receiving a fresh critical re-evaluation in modern times. We didn't like it! Not least because of their complete rip-off of “Werewolves of London” by Warren Zevon.

Socks: The Artful Ewe Clackamas. Finished first sock and about halfway through leg of second sock. Emotional Support Chicken: by Annette Corsino. I've knitted a bit on my chicken. About to start the second stripe. Pinot Noir Purchase Targhee: I've been spinning the giant (2.2 pound) ball of Targhee roving I bought from an attendee at last fall's Fort Worden Knitting Retreat. I have dyed four batches of fiber at 4 oz each. A little disappointed that the Spruce and Turquoise, and the burgundy and Hot Fuchsia look the same. May take a break and spin something smaller to get my mojo back. Kelly's Projects New Sweater! Started knitting Graphito by Heidemarie Kaiser. Calling it my NoCKRs Sweater since both yarns are the retreat yarns (2023 and 2024). Seismic Yarns Butter Silk and Invictus Yarns Seraphic–both fingering weight.

This week: a new series called “In The Shadow Of…”, where we compare obscure bands to a mainstream act. This is not about copycats, but more about artists with similar vibes, sharing a sonic landscape, or whose songwriting and playing styles are sympatico. We kick off this series with a band near and dear to both humble hosts. A band whose live show made us both immediate fans back in 2004; the amazing British power trio MUSE! Join us as we discover other bands influenced and inspired by MUSE's complex yet accessible modern rock.What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This is not a statement about bands trying to copy one another, but more that they have a shared sound and vision. It's been said that there is no originality left in rock n' roll and also been stated that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. As always, we hope we turn you on to something new!Songs this week include:Tigercub – “Swoon” from The Perfume Of Decay (2023)Anchor Lane – “Stutter” from Call This A Reality? (2022)VAST – “I Woke Up LA” from Turquoise (2004)The Warning – “More” from Keep Me Fed (2024)Dear Sherlock – “XPTO” from Object Of Ridicule (2023)K Será – “Carry” from Collisions & Near Misses (2013)Battle Circus – “Galacticus” from Battle Circus (2011)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://x.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/inobscuria/og-shopCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/
C-Zero and Zach Jones, its co-founder and CEO, are using innovative thermocatalysis technology to convert natural gas into zero-emission hydrogen, offering the tantalizing potential to decarbonize major industries while scaling the fuel of the future. Hydrogen is one of the most promising sources of clean energy in existence, and a key component in alternative fuels capable of decarbonizing hard-to-electrify industries like heavy shipping. But there's a catch: the current processes used to extract hydrogen from hydrocarbons like natural gas create a rather unsustainable byproduct – carbon dioxide. Hard-tech firm C-Zero has the answer: a revolutionary method to convert natural gas into hydrogen and a solid carbon byproduct instead, which could have industry, or even world-changing, implications. And Zach, a biomedical engineer, multi-time founder, and venture capital investor with a lifelong passion for hydrogen, is perfectly positioned to take this technology to the next level, having spent his entire career in and around the innovation economy. Hear Zach share how his interest in hydrogen led him to the idea that would become C-Zero, why “turquoise hydrogen” is the secret to Hydrogen 3.0, and why thermocatalysis could decarbonize the future of energy.

C dans l'air l'invité du 3 juin - François Lecointre, ancien chef d'état-major des armées, grand chancelier de la Légion d'honneur, auteur de “Entre guerres”. François Lecointre a été chef d'état-major des armées de 2017 à 2021, après avoir servi comme chef du cabinet militaire des premiers ministres Manuel Valls, Bernard Cazeneuve et Edouard Philippe. En 1994, il a participé à l'opération "Turquoise", au Rwanda, puis est parti en Bosnie, où il a mené l'assaut pour reprendre aux Serbes le pont de Vrbanja, le dernier combat "baïonnette au canon" de l'armée française. Il vient de publier chez Gallimard "Entre guerres". Pour la première fois, l'Allemagne et les Etats-Unis ont donné leur feu vert pour que l'Ukraine frappe des cibles sur le sol russe, sous certaines conditions. Une décision qui intervient après que la Pentagone a pu démontrer que la Russie emploie des missiles balistiques nord-coréens dans sa guerre. En Parallèle, la tension monte à Taïwan alors que la Chine promet d'agir “avec détermination et force” contre l'indépendance de Taïwan. François Lecointre, ancien chef d'état-major des armées, grand chancelier de la Légion d'honneur, auteur de "Entre guerres" chez Gallimard Gallimard, reviendra sur votre parcours et les combats qui l'ont forgé.

“Turquoise is looking for how do we bring back the village? How do we live in community again? Why are we living in these separate houses? We're not sharing resources. Everyone on the street has a snowblower, a lawnmower, you know, like the design isn't elegant, it's not an elegant design. And so I think the mind of yellow joins into turquoise and as it has studied systems, it contributes to that and we are looking for more holistic, elegant solutions to give birth to a new culture. It's like we can no longer continue down the path. And at turquoise, we are going to have to sacrifice for the whole.” For those of you who follow me on Instagram or read my newsletter on Substack, you'll know that I've been quite obsessed with Spiral Dynamics of late, and see it as one way to explain our current cultural and political dilemmas, along with so much of our internalized anxiety. It was first developed by the late professor Clare Graves, who was a contemporary and colleague of Abraham Maslow, and then advanced by professor Don Beck, who worked on post-Apartheid South Africa with Nelson Mandela and F.W. de Klerk, and then further pushed by integral philosopher Ken Wilber. Spiral Dynamics can be heady stuff, and so I was thrilled when Nicole Churchill, a wonderfully grounded therapist and expert in Spiral Dynamics, offered to talk through the system with me for the podcast. Nicole and her husband John Churchill, who has also been a guest on Pulling the Thread, studied with Ken Wilber, and both apply it in their therapy work with both individuals and organizations. If you all end up loving Spiral Dynamics as much as I do, Nicole has offered to come back and explore how she uses it in therapy—please pass this episode on to any friends who you think might enjoy. I'm convinced that there are some keys here that can help us see the world and ourselves more clearly. In the show notes, you'll find ways to go deeper as well.
