A new chemical compound discovered in the 1950s called per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, has quietly infiltrated nearly every corner of our lives. Marketed under the household name "Teflon," PFAS at first seemed like a miracle invention - resistant to heat, stains, water, and even insects. It was the perfect coating for cookware, waterproof clothing, food packaging, and more. But over time, disturbing health effects have come to light.

Things I Learned Last Night is an educational comedy podcast where best friends Jaron Myers and Tim Stone talk about random topics and have fun all along the way. If you like learning, and laughing a whole lot while you do, then you’ll love TILLN. Watch or listen to this episode today!
