This week’s guest is Dr. John Frater, a Professor of Infectious Diseases at the University of Oxford. John and Marissa talk about monkeypox, why it has us, um, going bananas and whether we really should worry about it, all while making a savory monkey bread. They also discuss the future of Covid and how to keep people from freaking out about vaccines. It’s a lot funnier conversation than it should probably be.

Monkeypox vs Monkey Bread: The very latest news with Dr. John Frater

At The Secret Life of Cookies we know that kitchens are the heart of the home. They’re where families come together, where food comes from and where some of the best conversations take place. Kitchens are where the power is (even nasty President Jackson with his “kitchen cabinet” thought so), and where the baked goods are, which is why Marissa Rothkopf, the host, spends so much time in the kitchen. On The Secret Life of Cookies we will bring you into those conversations with some smart, interesting people who like to cook and have something to say. Pull up a chair up at our kitchen table, and join us as we cook and discuss the important issues of today. 
 
Marissa Rothkopf is a professionally trained chef and food writer who has done everything from restaurant reviews for the New York Times to writing a column on kitchen gadgets for Newsweek. She teaches journalism at Montclair State University and gets nervous when asked to make custard.
