  • Good podcast, but was it financed by the Juul founders?

    Well put together podcast, but very sympathetic to the Juul founders. I like the narrator, but the vocal fry was a bit grating.

I’m having a hard time understanding Laura’s pers... more

Yet there is no actual science, evidence, data to suggest that this is true and the show just leaves you with the impression that you should vape instead of smoke cigarettes. We actually have no clue if vaping is “safer” - and if you include the public health perspective (ie that h... more
