Summary
This week we're giving a listener whose house flooded after Hurricane Harvey some advice on finding the right people to help get her kitchen back together again after the storm. We also share why we're loving a new "smart" platform for buying and selling secondhand stuff. And we're sharing a series of recent faux plant scores that make us proud to be fake plant owners. Plus John's shares a free tool that's finally putting the kibosh on one of his worst habits.
