Topic: Water Contamination

A resident of Cincinnati notes that local officials are downplaying the risk of Ohio River water contamination despite the spill being upstream. A pilot performing aerial surveys calls in from 1,000 feet above Texas to discuss the situation. There is a brief debate regarding the correct pronunciation of "East Palestine," with the pilot insisting it has always been "Palesteen."

A former resident of East Palestine, Ohio, reports that the EPA and railroad companies are lying about the safety of the town. The caller describes a chemical film on ponds and widespread animal deaths, including cattle and fish. The host advises residents downwind of the derailment to evacuate and avoid local produce due to long-term toxic contamination.
