This week Vermont became the first state in the nation to ban the herbicide paraquat. We just dropped an episode with famed Parkinson's researcher @RayDorseyMD and producer Steve Brandenburg about paraquat and Parkinson's. It's a powerful conversation.

🎙️Hot off the press, we just dropped a terrific conversation with @SherylNYT on covering Kennedy and MAHA in an era of deep mistrust and division. It is a honest, raw and insightful conversation on being a reporter in 2026 America covering one of the most politicized issues of our times -- health.

@TimRyan @TimRyan keeps spitting facts!
"The other thing that is important when you are trying to persuade an independent voter is to prove that you have the guts to disagree with your own party on something."

"Don't say you're MAHA & then gut the entire Environmental Protection Agency."

[Why Should I Trust You? @WSITYpod]

Tomorrow on WSITY, former OH Congressman @TimRyan, the most MAHA Democrat we have met. "There's no better energy in the country right now politically than the MAHA movement. It's the tip of the spear of reform happening in the country."

This week WSITY went to DC to the People vs Poison rally outside the Supreme Court to unpack pesticides, power, and who we trust. Take a listen to what we heard from @RepThomasMassie, @CoryBooker, and voices across MAHA.
