“Ripple fills us in on the details of the BP Oil Spill and the consequences that have not been widely reported. This true story is disturbingly similar to other chemical company cases like the radium girls, that one would think couldn’t possibly happen in the 21st century. Thank you for sharing...”Read full review »

“Honestly one of the most immersive, intriguing pieces of investigative journalism I’ve come across via podcast. Only half way through and if my jaw continues to hit the floor like this for the remainder of the series, I will need surgery. SO well done - thank you.”

“This is one of my favorite podcasts, I’m a sucker for anything investigative. While the subject material is very different, it has a similar vibe to Your Own Backyard. If you liked YOB, you’ll probably like this. I hope there’s a second season!”

“Just the word “Corexit” makes me shiver in fear. Just the sight of the BP logo makes me cringe in anger.
This is the best podcast I ever heard.
