0:00.0 | Hey everybody, welcome to the Krebscast. I'm your host Charlie Barons. This is the podcast where we |
0:04.8 | talk to people for and or from the Midwest and we are sponsored by Jolly Good soda. The best |
0:10.7 | gosh darn soda around and I'm not just saying that because they're a sponsor. I'm saying it |
0:15.8 | because I've been putting that stuff in old fashion since I was six years old and yes, I was |
0:19.9 | making them at six years old. I was not drinking them that. That came at eight. So anyway, listen, |
0:25.6 | this week we've got a very cool episode. I'm talking with Samantha Longshore from Milwaukee |
0:30.7 | Recycles and we were talking all about an issue I'm very passionate about. It's recycling and |

1:42.3 | the bottle cap, can that thing be recycled? You know, or what about the tops to your water bottles? |
