Episode notes

Imagine being a lawyer for BIG chemical companies… and then finding out they’ve been knowingly poisoning people for DECADES. That’s exactly what happened to Environmental Attorney Robert Bilott when a desperate farmer walked into his office with proof that something evil was happening.

What started as one case turned into a MASSIVE legal battle exposing the truth about Forever Chemicals—toxic substances lurking in our water, our products, and even our bodies. His story inspired the documentary 'The Devil We Know' AND the Hollywood film 'Dark Waters' starring Mark Ruffalo and Anne Hathaway. He’s also the author of Exposure, where he spills ALL the details. Today, Robert joins Culture Apothecary to break down what’s REALLY in our water—and what we can do about it.
