Join us on this week’s episode of The Mold Show, where we’re stepping into reaction mode and breaking down a few clips! Here’s what we’ve got lined up:

First, we cue up a clip from a Joe Rogan’s conversation about mold and its often-overlooked impact on health.

Next, we hit “play” on an intense emergency flood video that’s gone viral. Watch (and cringe) as we break down this video and discuss the crucial first steps you should take when your home or building is impacted by a significant water event.

Then, a possible HGTV mold situation caught on camera! We’ve spotted suspicious growth in a recent HGTV makeover, and we’re calling in our mold inspector’s eye to diagnose what they might’ve missed— and offer a pro’s guide to what they should have done differently.

Finally, hold onto your respirators as we react to a questionable mold‑cleaning product ad that promises miraculous results.

In this episode of The Mold Show, we sit down with Jennifer Brower, author of "Silent Killers: A Journey through the Complex Disorders of Lyme Disease, Mold Toxicity, Mercury Poisoning, and Coronavirus."

Jennifer shares her 25-year battle with chronic illness—starting with a spider bite that led to misdiagnoses, debilitating symptoms, and a long road to recovery. From Lyme disease and mold toxicity to mercury poisoning and Wi-Fi sensitivity, she’s faced it all. Now, she’s on a mission to help others avoid the same confusion and frustration she endured.

🌿 Key Topics in This Episode:

✅ The misdiagnoses that delayed her healing journey

✅ How mold toxicity played a major role in her symptoms

✅ The connection between Lyme disease & environmental toxins
