Show Notes
Don and Ben get together for their second podcast during peak pandemic. There's lots of TV talk at the beginning, since Ben is watching lots of TV with his kids. Ben also talks about other stuff he's doing with his family like playing board games. From there the guys transition to the work that they've been doing in response to the pandemic, including Don's adventures with a viral tweet, and how Ben falls victime to an April Fools prank. They both talk about the challenges posed by risk communication in the pandemic. At the end of the podcast Ben pivots to conventional food safety, and the guys discuss a really interesting Listeria outbreak that's going on with Enoki mushrooms.
