Food-safety fears, cast-iron scrubbers, and the poop-on-your-toothbrush tangent
A host confesses he has cleaned pots and casserole dishes for fifteen years with a silver scrubber and no soap because he assumed it was magic. The hosts riff on how food-safety rules are ultra-cautious, pizza restaurants rarely wash their pans, and Ben once noted how much airborne filth everyone takes in — if you flush with the lid up you are brushing your teeth with your own number two. The takeaway: things are not as likely to kill you as you think.
