Audio: "WHAT THOSE LAWN CHEMICALS CAN DO TO YOU" WTIC Radio and Paul Tukey

Here is a short clip of Paul Tukey and fellow co worker Scott Reil discussing the dangers of pesticides on WTIC Radio.

Tukeys story starts with a Golf Superintendent in the Wisconsin Audience who came up to him after the showing of the documentary.

"He was a Big Big Guy a Mans Man" whose Kid has had ADHD (Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and is battling many problems. 26 years ago this Golf Course Superintendent was "Elbow Deep in the Sauce" mixing the chemicals with his bare hands.
After viewing Tukeys Documentary he now knows he is to blame for his sons problems.

Tukey and Scott Reil talk about a fellow friend who died in 1991 of Cancer. Jim Wright of Prides Corner Farm kept telling Scott "You know and I know whats killing me." Wright used to tell them stories of back in the day when he would apply chemicals with no protection at all because it was the cool thing to do.

Tukey briefly comments on the threat of being "Banned from Canada".
