August invites staring across the water

This week: Turbine blade debris washes ashore on Martha's Vineyard, as the offshore wind breakdown continues. Massachusetts firefighters alarmed about PFAS in their gear see some relief. And a cultural festival in New Bedford welcomes women after more than 100 years.

This week's guests include Ethan Genter and Ray Ewing of the Vineyard Gazette; CAI's Eve Zuckoff and Jennette Barnes; Tim Wood of the Cape Cod Chronicle; Ed Miller of the Provincetown Independent; Josh Balling of the Nantucket Inquirer and Mirror; CAI's Gilda Geist; and Sam Houghton of the Martha's Vineyard Times.
