Episode 589 - THERMAL BEETS

Today on RÚV English Radio, a story for Iceland's vinyl - or record - lovers.

Thermal Beets Records (https://linktr.ee/ThermalBeets) aims to bring a brand new record pressing plant to Iceland - making records from environmentally friendly sugar beets, rather than standard PVC (polychloride vinyl).
