The show starts with a discussion about a wide variety of seemingly unrelated music including Men at Work, Burt Bacharach, Sting and school musicals before shifting to a quick chat about fun Netflix movies. The guys move into actual food safety talk by the way of microbes on used books and unsafe pickling procedures. The conversation goes to cottage foods and having pets in home food processing kitchens. Don and Ben talk about food safety fights between franchisers and franchisees, expiration dates and the risks of grapefruits and medication. The show ends on a review of FDA's structure and the science of science.
