Tara McEntee does a serious thing and a fun thing. The serious thing is working in public health on communicable diseases (including, y'know, the big one at the moment). And then the fun thing is comedy! She tells us all about her two lives, when they cross, and the unfortunate homophone of her name in Te Reo Maori. Along the way, we also talk about Grindr, gifted and talented classes, squeamish doctors, and the smell of cookies getting into your pores.
