Often marketed as a means to help current smokers quit, e-cigarettes have unfortunately given birth to an entirely new generation of inhalers. The popularity of vaping among teens is on the rise, with juuling leading the way.
Parents who listen to the show have expressed concerned about the popularity of juuling and risks associated with vaping and requested a show to address both. As a result, I sought out Jamie Ducharme to join me as a guest. Jamie is a health writer for Time who has covered not only the risk associated with e-cigarettes but also the rise in popularity of e-cigarettes among teens. In the show we discuss:
We end this segment of the podcast discussing breaking news from the FDA concerning restriction of sales of flavored e-cigarettes.
In the odds & ends segment of today's episode, I'm revisiting a fan-favorite -- if I had a VCR, I'd tape this -- where I discuss what I'm binge-watching on Netflix at the moment. Having just wrapped up Part 2 of Making a Murderer, I'm offering insight (as spoiler free as possible) into why I liked this season of the documentary even more than Part 1 and specifically encouraging fans of the show to start following Kathleen Zellner on Twitter if they aren't already to stay up to date on breaking news in the case, and specifically to learn more about the potential additional suspects in the case.
Today’s episode and so many of the show topics this season I’m addressing are direct requests from listeners. If you have a topic you’d like to hear more about, let me know! Submit a show idea here, connect by leaving me a voicemail, tag or message me on social media (Instagram, Twitter or Facebook) or email me at regan@thisunmillenniallife.com.
