A short podcast about everyday risks from germs

This image features a half-empty, transparent container of guacamole placed on a kitchen counter. The guacamole itself is textured, displaying distinct chunks of small diced tomatoes, onions, and cilantro, which add a colorful and fresh appearance to the green base. The guacamole's surface has ridges and swirls, showing evidence of recent scooping.
The kitchen is depicted in the middle of the night, with dim, warm lighting emanating from an overhead source, casting gentle, elongated shadows on the counter. The counter itself is subtly textured, resembling granite or a similar polished stone surface with small, faint speckles.
The container is positioned slightly askew, hinting at casual use. Reflections on the container's plastic sides indicate the soft glow from the kitchen's light, enhancing the late-night ambiance. Overall, the scene conveys a feeling of nighttime snacking, with its quiet and tranquil setting.
