Pass It On: funny, fascinating and useful retro household tips from the 1950s

The last time Connie, Steve and Chris were together, we promised you that the next episode would be filled with sewing tips. But then again, the last time we were all together, the world was in a very different place.

And now so are we, literally; this episode was recorded from Connie, Steve and Chris’s respective homes, and while we do get to some sewing tips, first, we took the chance to chat and catch up with each other. Stay safe, and if you’d like something to entertain and amuse you while you’re home, remember that the discount code which gives you 20% off the Pass It On books at dcthomsonshop.co.uk is now ‘darning’; it’s valid till 20 May 2020, and you just need to enter it at checkout! Chat to us at twitter.com/ThePassItOnPod or facebook.com/PassItOnTips, and if you know anyone who’d enjoy the podcast as much as you do – pass it on!

Helpful tips for working from home, with Glenn Fleishman

In this unusual episode for these unusual times, Chris is joined from Seattle by Glenn Fleishman, whose response to the current disruption has been to write and release a free book to help anyone who finds themselves working from home for the first time. Glenn shares the tips he’s learned over years of home working, as well as the expertise from his network of friends and colleagues; we’re sharing them here in case they‘re useful to you or your friends and family. And never fear – Connie and Steve will be back soon, but you may just have to forgive some slightly ropey audio quality!

Cleaning tips

Once again recording from our respective – and respectable – homes, we thought we’d dig into some cleaning tips from the 50s, since we’re all frantically swabbing every available surface. Or at least, will be after Steve’s tip about playing cards.
