This episode was inspired by a recent South Park episode on Japanese toilets!

On today’s Sh*t Talk, Liz is joined by RD & CPT, Nicki Parlitsis, to discuss their favorite (and least favorite) toilet papers (there’s a ranking), Bidets, Bidet attachments, and Japenese toilets.

Nicki discloses which toilet paper has NEVER let her down, while Liz explains why she favors a non-crowd pleasing TP.

They discuss the surprising results from Liz’s instagram poll on how many people have used a Japanese toilet, and give an overview on the history of bidets, bidet attachments, and Japanese Toilets.

They discuss the hard hitting questions - How do you properly use a bidet? Why is America behind in this lifestyle choice? What is the transition like from using a bidet to a westernized toilet and toilet paper?

Liz & Nicki discuss how to tune in to how you’re truly feeling, how to combat distraction, tips for a more relaxed BM, and why it’s a great idea to use your time on the toilet as a time for no distractions.
