Houston, We Have a Potty Problem
That sound of flushing? That's us, going where no podcast has gone before: the bathroom.
You couldn't make this stuff up. While the rest of the world was watching NASA's Artemis II crew make history with the first woman around the moon, a record-breaking 252,756 miles from Earth, including a solar eclipse, Johnny was asking the real question nobody else had the guts to ask: what happens when an astronaut has to go?
And as it turns out, the Artemis II toilet actually acted up mid-mission. Yes, really. You can't flush this stuff.
This week Johnny takes a leak on the biggest space story of the year with a deep dive into cosmic bathroom chaos. Think burritos in zero gravity, clogged space toilets, and the heroics of Christina Koch, who didn't just make history as the first woman to orbit the Moon. She's also Johnny's pick for the first astronaut plumber. Six plungers. Several coat hangers. She got the job done.
In This Episode:
Timely Flush: Christina Koch and the Artemis II crew splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on April 10th just days before this episode dropped. She's back on Earth, reunited with her dog Sadie, and probably never eating a burrito again.
