Summary
In this episode we’re spinning the story of one the world’s most timelessly popular toys, the Hula Hoop. While it’s often thought of today as a fad of the past, the Hula Hoop has actually existed in a variety of different forms for centuries, and is debatably still as popular today as ever. Joining us to talk about it is Bunny B Star, the founding director and owner of Australian Hula Hoop company, Hoop Empire.
