Listener Reviews

I’m only scratching the surface on this podcast’s episodes and I’ve already learned so much. James and Robbie and engaging and endearing and talking about issues that I’m so glad to know someone else cares about as much as me—but I wouldn’t know how to start getting to the bottom of so many of my recycling questions and these guys are here digging into the data and nuances for me! It’s fantastic stuff and comes with a community that helps connect us all more in this journey to make the world a little better.

This is a firm favourite podcast now. I work in the industry and every episode provides talking points for the working week!

I love this podcast thank you!

Informative and fun. It’s what BBC Radio 4’s You’re Dead to Me is for history, but for rubbish and recycling. Thank you!

I didn’t know how much I was interested in recycling until I listened to this podcast. Quickly become a Thursday highlight.

I’ve been a lifelong recycler, but that hasn’t been without its fair share of naysayers and doom theorists. James and Robbie are demystifying the other side of the recycling bins we use, explaining how and why our efforts are making a difference.

It has a great sense of humour

In depth and well presented.

Loving this podcast. Discovered it a few weeks ago then went back and started from the beginning, I’m now up to date and have to wait patiently for the next episode.I’ve learnt so much! Thank you!

Obviously they talk ABOUT rubbish, but this is by far the most interesting podcast on my list. I listen to it on my way to work to preach to people about rubbish…thanks for providing me with the content I need!!

Full of useful answers to everyday sustainability questions.

As a copywriter who’s worked on big campaigns for composting and recycling, I know how difficult it is to make rubbish interesting enough for people to care about. But James and Robbie have done it. They know their stuff but they make the topic engaging and even funny. Their explanations are clear and simple to understand. Before long, you start changing your behaviour and noticing what you’re buying and throwing away. A superb show.

Wait impatiently for a Thursday to come round. Love the info. Keep up the great work

I started listening to this Podcast recently after seeing a mention about it on social media and have now worked through all the episodes to date. As a bit of a self-confessed recycling geek I have found it a brilliant way of adding to my knowledge, challenging some generally accepted practices and helping me make some further changes to packaging choices etc. James and Robbie’s easy going banter make it a fun podcast to listen to, breaking down potentially incomprehensible scientific details into easy to understand formats and featuring very interesting guests. I’m thoroughly looking forward to all the future episodes!

Drop in on fun chats with these guys and their guests. They’re entertaining and you will undoubtedly learn useful stuff along the way. Plenty of laughter. Definitely not stuffy.

My week isn’t complete unless I have listened to the latest podcast!You’re doing a fantastic job in shaping the future of our planet♻️. Keep up the amazing research and transferring the knowledge to your eager audience! 🎤

Straight talking, lots of laughter and a super niche topic. Welcome to a world you may never have considered… recycling. Bin dive right in!

My heartbeat increases every time I try to work out what I can / can’t recycle…the fear of contamination looms large! So, I’m delighted I can go to this podcast and find out, for example, if train tickets are recyclable (spoiler alert: they’re not).

Really enjoy this podcast, it helps navigate the perils of everyday recycling in a fun and non-judgmental way. They have interesting guests and provide lots more ‘behind the scenes’ information which also turns out to be quite interesting!

I love the fact that I deal with these issues in my day to day role which can sometimes lead us down many rabbit holes. James & Robbie have the true skill to put this important topic in a way that we all understand as consumers. I also love the fact that there are no filters and all topics are covered even mentioning brands too!

If you are then you probably need to listen to this to understand the processs and facts behind packaging and rubbish. It’s so refreshing to understand the facts behind the opinions with a balanced view on what sustainability means. Happy bin day!

Great show, makes recycling easy to understand - and entertaining!

I’ve been listening to this over the last few months now and I have to say that it is excellent. Very natural, entertaining, engaging and interesting. I would highly recommend. Great chemistry between hosts James and Robbie. Both clearly know their stuff and share some really fascinating insights. 6 out of 5 from me!
