Here to watch X burn and post about podcasts. Serious discussion elsewhere, e.g., and bugcounter on bluesky. Views my own.

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 a split decision. I was not able to convince Ben that enough salt would make it safe. https://t.co/ct3eIpFKmq. Either way it's probably #Gross.

A big thanks to Ethan from "Don't Cook That" for the inspired topic https://t.co/BrRomfARUy, with some microbiology and toxicology related content. Please check out https://t.co/F9vfyMPNS4 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. https://t.co/OkZZ5U2WxH. I'm pretty sure that Ben's buddy does not wear hockey garb in the kitchen but you never know.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

We were able to fulfill our mandatory Canadian content for this week with this episode. https://t.co/D7P0w8sZet. Ben is able to provide his own data in support of his position. Apologies, as we missed the holiday by two days.

So what?

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

Ben did decide that this was going to be part 2 of an arc related to photographs we have on our phone https://t.co/Vlki9Wi0es I think I really startled him with my comment towards the end about pregnancy

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

@ArthurCDent Ag sci? Public health? Looks like I might be ok.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

Ben might consider this part of a leaky package arc https://t.co/oB1bZIMZmi we don't often think about toothpaste from a food safety perspective, but this was interesting to consider.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

Thanks to the listener who wrote a really detailed question. https://t.co/JI79uFch6N sadly the food had been discarded before our verdict.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

This was an interesting one https://t.co/ze1LIuh0n8 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.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

@ArthurCDent This was really cool. Thanks for sharing.

Today's episode was a fun one https://t.co/isIcJ9FJTr and not just because I got to quiz Ben on his Monty Python trivia knowledge.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

Any day I can talk about Risk and prevalence and statistical sampling plans is a good day. https://t.co/XOcQtXJRUQ sorry this is posting late

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

This was another example where we try to arbitrate a potential spousal dispute. https://t.co/FZ2lCprklL file this one under #GrossButNotRisky

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

I got really behind on posting episodes from our latest batch of recordings. This one should've gone out yesterday https://t.co/ySXg2cyBnq. 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.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

This might be another one to file under #GrossButNotRisky https://t.co/2z4wihg3kD also ChatGPT image generation did not match my prompt, but it's description of the image did match my prompt. Weird.

[Annoyed microbiologist 🦠 @bugcounter]

@focusfronting Yes
