The Common

Rewind: A cafe for broken belongings


Listen Later

It's another show from our archives, today with WBUR reporter Martha Bebinger.

You know that broken thing you have sitting in your closet that you just don't have the heart to throw away? It could be a broken lamp, a dead watch or a pair of scissors that's a little dull.

Martha joins The Common with more on the Repair Cafe movement and the folks behind it.

Greater Boston’s weekly podcast where news and culture meet.
