On today’s episode, host Kate Lindsay is joined by senior reporter at Bloomberg Businessweek, Amanda Mull, to talk about how the enshittification of online shopping came for Etsy.

With cheap junk and AI allegations abound, where can the Shein and Temu-haters go to actually find what they’re shopping for?
