  Is There Life After Facebook? 03.03.2021 20min

  Unless you have being living under a rock, you will know that for a week in February 2021 Facebook banned news content in Australia. After falling out with our federal government over details about a mandatory news code. This topic has been covered extensively with other Australian podcasters, nevertheless, it has got us thinking? What are the implications? Can we quit for good? Is there another viable alternative that cuts down on Social Media addiction? Today's guest Aussie ex-pat Jill Schuller has ticked all of those boxes. Last year she quit Facebook and Instagram, and this year she created Sundayy, a mindfulness-based social media app, that lets you check in with your friends once a week on a Sunday. Think of it as digitalized brunch. We at the Friendly Futurist love this kind of technology story. Simply because it demonstrates tech as a human experience. To check Sundayy out go to sundayy.app it is now available to download on IOS and Android. What topics and or trends would you like to hear about?

  How Are Online Grocery Deliveries Fighting The War on Waste? Part Two Interview with Rich Taurino from The Good and Fugly 31.03.2021 21min

  🍌🍌🍌 We all love bananas! 🍌🍌🍌 But did you know? Our societal emphasis on perfectionism has created impractically high aesthetic standards for supermarkets. So much so that 25% of all fresh produce does not leave the farm gate and goes straight into landfill. Yes wanting that Cavendish with a perfect curve is killing the planet! Today's guest Rich Taurino from Sydney has a solution with his startup The Good and Fugly. Rich goes around to the farmers in the greater Sydney area and buys up all of the rejected fruit and veg and boxes them up and sell them. Sure the tomatoes have a few blemishes, nevertheless, they are still as tasty in your salad. To support this noble idea check out www.goodandfugly.com.au And be sure to give Rich our love and support. What topics and or trends would you like to hear about?
