Midday Metro starts after the 10 a.m. news

Some might say they have one of the most stress filled jobs in the world.  Midday Metro meets members of the Salt Lake City Police Department's hostage negotiating team. Guests include Detectives Brian Wahlin and Steve Hartney.

In a fast-food world, is there a perfect meal? Author Michael Pollan will be here to talk about the way our food choices affect our health and the health of the environment around us. His books include In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto and The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals. Pollan is in town as a guest of the Utah Museum of Natural History for its Nature of Things Lecture Series tonight at Abravanel Hall. 

Also, Tax Season may be sneaking up on many of us.  Are you wondering what deductions you can take, or how to get your tax refund, let alone your tax rebate?  Later on the show we'll get some tips and trade secrets from IRS agents Bill Brunson and Dianna Nielsen.

Join the conversation.  Call 355-TALK or email midday@kcpw.org during the show to participate.
