Restart Radio: the upgrade cycle and recycling

This is the first episode of our live radio show, broadcast every Tuesday at 1:30pm here in London on Resonance 104.4 FM and always online. Our show is about gadgets but it's definitely different. We're not going talk about the shiny shiny new things we want you to buy. We'll focus on the value of the things we already have and how to value them longer. This week, we talked with Restarter Ben Skidmore about some tough mobile and tablet repairs, and to podcaster Dave Pickering about maintenance of his laptop, which he depends on for his livelihood.

Om Podcasten

A bi-monthly podcast from The Restart Project, where we explore fixing triumphs, heartbreaks, and the policy and culture that affects community repair. We go into real depth about good and bad design, obstacles to repair of electronics, emotional aspects of ownership, environmentally irresponsible business models, and the “end of life” of our gadgets. This podcast is for you if you'd like to fix your relationship with electronics. Let’s rethink, restart.
