Introducing Safe to Drink

Author: The Fall Line® February 17, 2026 Duration: 29:33

Today, we're sharing the first episode of Safe to Drink, a new podcast series from the Pulitzer Prize-finalist Document team at New Hampshire Public Radio.

When residents of a New Hampshire town discover their drinking water is contaminated with PFAS, chemicals linked to serious health risks, they are told there is no cause for alarm. But as illnesses mount and questions go unanswered, families begin to push back.

Hosted by NHPR climate reporter Mara Hoplamazian, Safe to Drink investigates how environmental contamination is handled when the science is evolving, regulations lag behind, and responsibility is diffuse. Through deep reporting and personal stories, the series examines who bears the burden when systems fail to act.

If you care about accountability, environmental justice, and the people fighting to be heard, this story will feel familiar and urgent.

In the crowded landscape of true crime, The Fall Line: True Crime distinguishes itself by focusing intently on the cases that have slipped through the cracks. This investigative podcast, produced by The Fall Line®, dedicates its episodes to cold cases, unsolved murders, and missing persons who haven't received the sustained attention they deserve. The work goes beyond simply recounting facts; it involves deep, often years-long dives into the specifics of unsolved homicides, disappearances, and the stories of unidentified John and Jane Does. You'll hear directly from the people closest to these investigations-law enforcement officers who worked the original details, forensic experts explaining the science, dedicated victim advocates, and, most importantly, the families still living with the unresolved loss. Each season is built on meticulous research and interviews that piece together not only what might have happened, but also the complex reasons why answers remain elusive. The narrative is driven by a commitment to thoroughness and respect, aiming to bring new clarity to long-forgotten files. By listening to this podcast, you become part of a process that seeks to restore names to the nameless and pursue justice for the overlooked, all through careful, persistent storytelling that treats every case with the gravity it has always warranted.
