  • Ep. 109 Piss Prophets and Fecal Fortune Tellers

    To kick off the 2023 spoopky season, we discuss another colorful time in human history and medicine in which we stooped to the point of handling and... consuming urine to tell someone's fortune... I mean diagnose their health. Sometimes, it's hard to tell the difference.

  • Ep. 108 Bidets Part 1: A Bedroom Origin

    Modern bidets are a wonder of bathroom ingenuity and comfort. But historically, bidets spent longer in the bedroom as a supplement to weekly bathing. Where did the bidet come from, and how long will it take to make it to the bathroom?
