About this conversation

In this week’s episode we discussed how consumer culture, emotional attachment, and clever marketing have led to a nation buried in stuff. Americans are surrounded by more possessions than ever before, from overstuffed closets to overflowing storage units. We talk about clutter, psychology, and minimalism to uncover why we keep accumulating—and what it might take to finally let go.
