On Christmas Eve I had a great video chat with Jon Fishman (drummer of the band Phish) about "all things Lead" (including discussing his experience with his child's Lead exposure). The video below is the second of three "Ten Minutes With Tamara" video segments from this interview. Please check out all three of the videos! You can find them on the blog (link here: tamararubin.com/2021/01/ten-m... ), or here on the Lead Safe Mama KZfaq channel. Thank you for being here! I hope you are having a great start to the New Year!
If you read only one Lead Safe Mama post after watching this video, please read this one about Lead paint found on 7 different baby bottles purchased in the United States on Amazon in 2021. Thank you. tamararubin.com/2021/12/simpl...
Part 2 of The Jon Fishman Christmas Eve Interview... topics include:
• Jon shares the story of his kiddo's Lead exposure
• We chat about when we met! ;-)
• Jon talks about things we tested at his house that were positive for Lead (a doll house, his baby dish)
• We talk about the issue of different testing thresholds for childhood Lead poisoning in different states
• I ask a question from a reader... (Rena)
• Jon talks about issues he experienced with people in the industry of Lead hazard remediation & testing (when he worked on cleaning up the Lead in his house in Maine after his kiddo tested positive), and gives parents tips for what to do when they go through this
• We discuss the new federal standards for Lead in house dust (the level at which Lead in dust is considered toxic has just been lowered in December of 2020)
You can also check out all of the videos in the Ten Minutes With Tamara video series on KZfaq - including interviews with parents from around the globe (New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the United States are represented so far!) Just click the "Ten Minutes With Tamara" series link or hashtag.
And for a deeper dive in to the issue of childhood Lead poisoning, a. preview screener of the full documentary feature film that I produced and directed (with some help [on the production side!] from Jon Fishman too! - and music donated by The Who and Tom Waits) can be seen at the following link (fee-free / commercial free) - Note this link may be taken down if we get a distribution partner to help us do some final/ technical finish work the film and get the film on Netflix / Amazon, etc. (Do you know anyone in the doc film industry who might want to help with this?- email me: TamaraRubin@mac.com) vimeo.com/156169133/7915741044
