Nick Recommends - Unleaded (An Episode of America Dissected)

The Flint Water Crisis dominated national headlines when it emerged in 2016—focusing national attention on the hazards of lead poisoning. Newark, New Jersey is facing a similar crisis today. But Flint and Newark are only the tip of the iceberg of an epidemic of lead poisoning facing urban communities across the country. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed visits Flint to speak with Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha, the pediatrician and researcher who uncovered the Water Crisis to understand how Flint’s history shaped the government failures that led to the crisis—and how distrust can devastate public health for poor, marginalized communities all across the United States.

Liz Recommends - Chameleon: Hollywood Con Queen

https://www.campsidemedia.com/shows/chameleon

CHAMELEON: Hollywood Con Queen, from Campside co-founders Josh Dean and Vanessa Grigoriadis, peaked at #2 on the Apple charts and was named one of 2020's best podcasts by Spotify, Stitcher, and Rolling Stone.

Chameleon unspools the story of one of the weirdest and wildest scams in history. Over the past seven years, hundreds of Hollywood gig workers have been fooled into flying to Indonesia for a movie that doesn’t exist. This deeply reported show from two veteran investigative reporters examines the cost of wanting something so badly that you see only what you want to see, contrasted against how information – and disinformation – can be used as a weapon to prey on true believers; the way the imbalance between powerful women and below-the-line men in the film biz plays out in the era of #MeToo; and the nature of Hollywood, a place where everyone is pretending to be someone else.
