  • One Size Fits All (Sizes part 2)
    From home repairs to entirely tailored outfits, the power of not letting capitalism tell you what you get to look like cannot be overstated. TR even wrote a song about it, and today we’re going to talk about how the song came into existence and the impact that it had.

  • Iron
    Iron is a vital part of machinery of all sorts, so today we’re going to examine its role in sewing machine history. Not only was it used to make the machines themselves, its physical properties drove the Singer company to push new horizons in global manufacturing.
