À propos de ce contenu audio

When a fire at the BioLab plant in Conyers, Georgia, sent a toxic cloud of smoke across the community, residents were left to wonder what they had been exposed to and what it would mean for their long-term health. One year later, many of those questions remain unanswered. In Manufacturing Danger: The BioLab Story, GPB’s Pamela Kirkland follows residents through the aftermath, while uncovering new details about what was happening inside the plant. Former employees describe ignored warnings, and whistleblowers raise questions about the response to the disaster. In Season 2, the podcast pieces together what could have been done to prevent the fire. It follows the ongoing health fallout, examines why critical response tools were never used, and reveals how BioLab’s little-known parent company is more familiar than most people realize.All Rights Reserved. © 2025 Economie Politique et gouvernement Science Sciences sociales

    • Echoes of Conyers
      Nov 3 2025

      Pamela travels to Roseland, Louisiana, after an explosion at Smitty’s Supply, a scene that mirrors the BioLab fire in Conyers, Georgia. She talks with residents, local leaders, and retired Lieutenant General Russel Honoré about health testing, cleanup, and the struggle to rebuild trust in public institutions. Along the way, she examines how the U.S. Chemical Safety Board balances limited authority with public expectation and how BioLab and its parent company, KIK Consumer Products, remain under scrutiny as investigations and enforcement actions continue.
