Don't Eat Poop! A Food Safety Podcast

In this episode of Don’t Eat Poop!, our hosts Matt and Francine are celebrating a very important milestone for the podcast, its 1 Year Anniversary! 

To celebrate they reflected on the podcast’s journey, the many great surprises it brought them, and how it ended up being the opposite of a trash can fire for their careers. Not only that, in true Matt-and-Francine fashion there are inside jokes and super relatable real-life stories.

With their great humor and incredible banter, they looked back on the first year of the podcast by sharing their favorite episodes so far: the ones with their dream guests, the funniest one, the ones that were the most impactful, and of course the ones with the craziest or most disgusting segments. 

As the good strategic dreamers they are, the hosts also looked into the future and shared with us the goals they set for the second year of the podcast.
