Thursday night at 7 PM Central, I'm going live to talk about something that affects millions of families and nobody's talking about it. Artificial turf. FIFA is requiring every World Cup stadium to rip out their synthetic turf and install real grass. 7FL stadiums are doing the same thing right now. Why? Because a 2024 study found that 100% of artificial turf brands tested positive for PFAS, forever chemicals. There are 96 identified chemicals in the crumb rubber your kids are playing on. 268 athletes have been diagnosed with cancer after playing on synthetic turf. 125 of them were goalkeepers. I'm going to break down the data Thursday night. If you have a kid who plays soccer, football, lacrosse, field hockey, you need to hear this. Thursday, 7 PM Central. I'll drop the link.
