  • Episode 17: Sheep Lives Matter

    Things get a little bit weird and disgusting this episode (actually what's new?!) when our lay guest Shaun (accountant) requests papers about poo. Alice goes very out of her field to explain to us how sheep poo and E. coli could be the end to New Zealand's favourite recreational activities. Then Curie discusses whether our poo could be making us depressed...
