The "Hazard NJ" podcast has been one of the most personal projects I've done. I was inspired by my experiences with hazardous sites in my hometown in Texas. I still believe this exposure contributed to my chronic health conditions as a kid.
On the season finale of "Hazard NJ," journalist @jgasspoore explains how “forever chemicals” became a ubiquitous part of consumer products, thus allowing them to persist in the environment indefinitely.

We're back with Season 2 of Hazard NJ, an @NJPBS podcast produced by @NJSpotlightNews.
In the season premiere, investigative reporter @jgasspoore explains the birth of PFAS in a lab in South Jersey and their lasting legacy around the world.
Listen now: ow.ly/vNZ850U9zaP
It was 1938 at a DuPont lab in South Jersey when scientists stumbled upon the chemical that would become known as Teflon. The accidental discovery became a scientific miracle, but that progress came with a toxic hidden cost that has only recently become fully understood.
We have a banger of a second season coming out soon of the #hazardnj podcast. This one's for those who've thought twice about drinking their coffee with a plastic straw, the horror fans, and everyone with #PFAS in their blood (which is you).
Hazard NJ, an NJ Spotlight News podcast, returns for a second season to take a deep dive into the history of PFAS or “forever chemicals,” the PFAS pollution crisis and the ways it is being addressed. ow.ly/mORp50U4xBK
