The show opens with a discussion of Ben's busy hockey schedule, chess and other games you can play on your iPhone. After the usual discussion of popular culture and television, the guys discuss the dangers of buying your degree online, famous people Ben knows on twitter and eventually move to food safety. The first food safety topic for discussion is a recent article on the relationship between minimum wage and restaurant inspection reports. The listener feedback section includes a discussion of vacuum packaged fish and botulism, clever tips for training unusual audiences, and the importance of cleaning the crud at the bottom of steam kettles. This leads to a discussion of allergens and species adulteration. Listener feedback concludes with a discussion of lactic acid as an alternative to triclosan in dish liquids. A discussion of food safety in the news includes the risks of chicken sashimi, and some insight into the California nacho cheese outbreak.
