Today's show opens with some quick hockey talk and then moves to a discussion of podcasting (and teleconferencing) gear. A brief segue into pop-culture is followed by a deep dive into how to develop science-based advise to consumers. The safety of bed-side water, the ongoing romaine outbreak, and Listeria in mashed potatoes round out the food safety news. Listener feedback and a promo for the upcoming live podcast at MSU end the show.
