In this second edition of Cancer Crime Stories, we explore the disturbing and often overlooked history of Downwinders — communities across the United States profoundly impacted by decades of nuclear testing.  Through conversations with filmmaker Mark Shapiro and passionate advocate Mary Dickson, we unravel harrowing stories of individuals whose lives were forever altered by radioactive fallout. We'll learn about the secretive and dangerous nature of nuclear tests, the severe health effects on unsuspecting individuals, and the ongoing fight for justice and recognition.  Join our discussion about this somber chapter of history and its impact on countless lives.  Visit whydidigetcancer.com for full show notes. --- This episode is sponsored in part by ButcherBox. I LOVE HIGH-QUALITY PROTEIN. Years ago, I had no clue what I was doing in the kitchen. I asked my chef friend, Gina, "How do you make chicken taste better?" She told me, "Boneless, skinless, tasteless." She explained that cooking with the bone adds flavor, moisture, and even a nutrient boost. Fast forward to today, and finding bone-in chicken can be a challenge. That’s why I love ButcherBox! They offer free-range, organic bone-in chicken thighs, checking all my boxes. And right now, you can get free bone-in chicken thighs in every box—up to three pounds for the next year! Plus, enjoy $30 off your first box.

The Body Deli – Why Did I Get Cancer? --- Martinelli’s Sparkling Apple Cider Let me tell you about my favorite mocktail: Martinelli's Sparkling Apple Cider. It's a fantastic substitute for champagne and perfect for summer drinks. After my breast cancer diagnosis, I became more mindful of what I consume after a 2016 study from the University of Houston revealed that alcohol can fuel estrogen, promoting breast cancer growth. According to breastcancer.org, just three drinks a week can increase breast cancer risk by 15%. You can find Martinelli's Apple Cider everywhere. Enjoy your summer and sip on some delightful mocktails!   This podcast is for informational purposes only and none of the information should be construed as medical advice.
