    Inside the Partnership Behind Healthier Homes

    What happens when a trained mold-detection dog and a healthy-home expert work together to investigate hidden problems inside a house? B.D. Erickson welcomes back Staci Sutton, founder of Mold Pups, and Jonathan Farrar, owner of JF Healthy Homes, for a special collaborative episode of The Current Truth. Staci and her trained mold-detection dog, Gus, help identify areas where mold-related odors may indicate a hidden problem. Jonathan brings his building assessment expertise to investigate those locations using moisture meters, thermal imaging, borescopes, and targeted testing. Together, they explain how their collaboration helps homeowners better understand potential mold problems, locate sources of water intrusion, and develop a plan for remediation and repair. They also share real homeowner experiences, including a property where further investigation revealed extensive hidden damage and a three-story condo affected by water intrusion across multiple levels.

    The Mold Dog That Found What Testing Missed

    What happens when a mold inspection comes back clean, but hidden mold is still suspected inside the home? B.D. Erickson sits down with Staci Sutton, founder and owner of Mold Pups, to explore the world of trained mold-detection dogs, hidden moisture problems, and the challenges of identifying mold inside residential buildings. Staci introduces Gus, her specially trained mold-detection dog, and explains how his sense of smell helps identify areas that may require further investigation. She shares the personal experiences that led her to establish Mold Pups, including her family's health struggles, the discovery of significant water damage in her own home, and her search for more effective ways to investigate suspected mold. One of the most remarkable stories involves Staci's first client, who reportedly spent $4,000 on air testing that came back clean. Gus subsequently alerted at multiple locations, and further investigation revealed concealed mold and moisture damage. Staci also explains what happens during a Mold Pups inspection, the importance of confirming canine alerts with additional investigative methods, and the steps homeowners can take when moisture or mold problems are discovered. The conversation takes a deeply personal turn as Staci shares the loss of her infant daughter, the unanswered questions that followed, and the experiences that inspired her children's book. From mold-detection dogs and building inspections to environmental health and family experiences, Episode 9 explores a specialized approach to understanding the homes we live in. Staci Sutton is the founder and owner of Mold Pups, a mold-detection service featuring her trained detection dog, Gus. Her journey began after her family experienced persistent health concerns and she discovered significant mold and water damage inside her own home. Today, Staci and Gus conduct systematic searches to help identify areas that may warrant further investigation. Their work incorporates canine scent detection alongside follow-up methods such as moisture measurements, thermal imaging, borescope inspections, and sampling when appropriate. Mold Pups primarily serves Nashville and Middle Tennessee and may travel for inspections or help connect clients with other qualified handlers.

    The Healthy Home Checklist

    Your home is where you sleep, recover, raise a family, and spend a huge portion of your life. But how much do you actually know about the environment inside it? B.D. Erickson sits down with Jonathan Farrar, founder of JF Healthy Homes, to examine the hidden environmental factors he looks for when assessing a home. Jonathan breaks down mold and biotoxins, indoor air quality, VOCs, off-gassing, drinking water, plumbing materials, EMFs, dirty electricity, wiring problems, and the sleep environment. He also explains his building-biology approach of treating the home as an interconnected ecosystem rather than looking at each potential issue in isolation. Jonathan shares the personal health challenges that led him into healthy-home work, along with real examples from homes he has assessed, including one bedroom where he measured an unusually high electric field and eventually traced it back to a wiring issue. The conversation also gets practical. Jonathan shares simple ways families can begin evaluating and improving their environment without trying to create a perfect home or becoming overwhelmed by everything around them. Jonathan Farrar is the founder of JF Healthy Homes, a healthy-home consulting and assessment company focused on helping families better understand their indoor environments. His work grew out of his own family's experience investigating environmental factors inside their home. Today, his approach incorporates building biology and evaluates areas including mold, indoor air, water, building materials, EMFs, dirty electricity, and other conditions that can affect the quality of a home's environment.

    The Hidden Energy Inside Your Home

    A healthy home involves more than what we can see. B.D. Erickson joins Dr. Daniel Pompa at his home to examine electromagnetic fields, dirty electricity, grounding, electrical wiring, solar, and the electrical environment surrounding his family every day. After testing more than 80 outlets, checking individual circuits, examining the electrical panels, measuring around the bedroom, and evaluating the home's grounding system, the team identified several areas worth addressing. The measurements around Dr. Pompa's bed became particularly interesting. After mitigation, the team recorded a significant reduction in the electrical field they were measuring. Dr. Pompa also connects the electrical environment with his decades of work focused on cellular health and discusses where EMFs fit alongside sleep, nutrition, sunlight, grounding, hydration, and other areas of wellness. They also explore grounding mats, current on the home's ground, solar systems, power quality, and the importance of measuring a home's electrical environment before assuming everything is operating as intended.
