When the flames are out, the real danger often lingers.

In this episode of Behind the Badge, Dave Ridley shares the personal story behind his mission to protect firefighters from the invisible toxins they carry long after their shift ends.

After becoming aware of the elevated cancer risks faced by firefighters due to exposure to known carcinogens and other toxic chemicals, Dave set out to create a decontamination soap designed specifically for those in harm’s way.

We talk about the science behind the soap, personal accountability, and the urgent need to shift from reaction to prevention.
