Vaping among teens is more than a phase — it’s a fast-changing trend that’s reshaping youth culture and health. Vaporized is a must-listen podcast episode for parents, caregivers, and educators who want to understand what today’s teens are really up against. We break down how vaping culture has evolved, the subtle ways companies target young users through flavors, design, and social media, and the latest vape products hitting the market. Hear directly from a health expert, as we unpack the risks, warning signs, and how adults can make a difference. If you’re trying to protect and guide the next generation, this podcast gives you the facts — and the tools — you need. Thank you so much to Dr. Amy Van Milligan for this amazing insight into vape culture.
