Unless you are living under a rock or have already perished from COVID-19, you've likely seen a YouTube video making the rounds where a medical doctor (wearing scrubs!) purports to give COVID-19 advice. (1/33)

This one was inspired by a weird Instagram post. riskyornot.co/episodes/997-c… definitely #Gross, but we both agree also #NotRisky.

This one was a split decision. I was not able to convince Ben that enough salt would make it safe. riskyornot.co/episodes/996-t…. Either way it's probably #Gross.

A big thanks to Ethan from "Don't Cook That" for the inspired topic riskyornot.co/episodes/995-c…, with some microbiology and toxicology related content. Please check out dontcookthat.com if it looks like your jam... if you listen to us, it probably is.

This has been a good week for Ben-related content. His kids featured on Monday, Canadian Thanksgiving on Wednesday and now some prime hockey related content. riskyornot.co/episodes/994-r…. I'm pretty sure that Ben's buddy does not wear hockey garb in the kitchen but you never know.

We were able to fulfill our mandatory Canadian content for this week with this episode. riskyornot.co/episodes/993-c…. Ben is able to provide his own data in support of his position. Apologies, as we missed the holiday by two days.

So what?

Ben did decide that this was going to be part 2 of an arc related to photographs we have on our phone riskyornot.co/episodes/992-w… I think I really startled him with my comment towards the end about pregnancy

Ben might consider this part of a leaky package arc riskyornot.co/episodes/991-t… we don't often think about toothpaste from a food safety perspective, but this was interesting to consider.

Thanks to the listener who wrote a really detailed question. riskyornot.co/episodes/990-b… sadly the food had been discarded before our verdict.

This was an interesting one riskyornot.co/episodes/989-e… we not all only got to explore the dangers associated with leaving food out of temperature control, we got into heat stable toxins and touched on prevalence and distribution of organisms in a food.

Today's episode was a fun one riskyornot.co/episodes/988-c… and not just because I got to quiz Ben on his Monty Python trivia knowledge.

Any day I can talk about Risk and prevalence and statistical sampling plans is a good day. riskyornot.co/episodes/986-e… sorry this is posting late

This was another example where we try to arbitrate a potential spousal dispute. riskyornot.co/episodes/985-e… file this one under #GrossButNotRisky

I got really behind on posting episodes from our latest batch of recordings. This one should've gone out yesterday riskyornot.co/episodes/987-a…. The good news is the next batch of future episodes is all loaded and ready to go. I'll also be posting about previous episodes to catch up.

This might be another one to file under #GrossButNotRisky riskyornot.co/episodes/984-s… also ChatGPT image generation did not match my prompt, but it's description of the image did match my prompt. Weird.

So what?

In today's episode Ben and I talk about two of our favorite things: fancy coffee and food poisoning riskyornot.co/episodes/983-r…

This was a fun one, thanks to Casey for the idea, and apologies to all three of the guys for the very silly image. The Rutgers "R" pennant in the background made me chuckle. Chatty G trying to be 'helpful" riskyornot.co/episodes/982-c…
