Recycling is this week's topic of conversation. We cover the basics and discuss the importance of shifting our attitude towards reducing our consumerism as well as how buying recycled closes the loop and actually increases the demand for recyclables. Val's recovering from a nasty bug and Dori's got another crime caper. Enjoy the show!
