This week, we catch up with an old friend. It comes to light that the world is smaller than we thought, ferns and pine branch make decent wiping material, and being a kid is tougher than it seems. Oh also...sometimes what seems like a turd, is really a tasty treat!

Soap is one of those things we take for granted. However, it was likely discovered on accident. We discuss a brief history of soap, and find out a lot of what we call soap today, isn't technically soap at all. -- Connect: privycast@gmail.com Privycast Website   Instagram @privycast Twitter: @privycast Facebook: Privycast Tumblr: Privycast TikTok: @privycast   Nominate a Bathroom for Cintas America...

There's lots of smells in the world, many of which come out of our bodies. One of the most peculiar, is pee smell. Why does asparagus make it smell like asparagus? Why does Hunter smell urine when he smells popcorn sometimes? Answers to these and more in this episode on why our pee smells. -- Connect: privycast@gmail.com Privycast Website   Instagram @privycast Twitter: @privycast Facebook: Privyc...

This week, I crash another friend's house to talk all things bathroom. We discuss the woes of police work as it relates to bathrooming, amongst other things. In short, we learn that the world is your bathroom when you need it to be.  Big thanks to Gavin Low for having the pod over! -- Connect with us: privycast@gmail.com Privycast Website Instagram @privycast Twitter @privycast Facebook @privycast...

May 4th was Star Wars day. For a media franchise that has been around as long as it has been, and having produced as much media as it has, you would think there would be a lot more data on bathrooms in the world of Star Wars. This episode, we take a look at how Jabba the Hut might do his deeds and discuss briefly why it took over 40 years to show a "refresher" on screen. -- Connect: privycast@gmai...

We go on location and visit the bathroom of friend of the show Austin Kent. There, we discuss working in corrections, the things we are willing to sniff, and how locking bathroom and stall doors could help avoid traumatizing someone's grandma. -- Connect with us: privycast@gmail.com Privycast Website Instagram @privycast Twitter @privycast Facebook @privycast privycast.tumblr.com TikTok @privycast...

Thomas Crapper is often cited as the inventor of the flush toilet. Turns out, he wasn't. Even more importantly, he isn't even the reason for the word crap. But, he did make some pretty important toilet innovations!

Have you ever been browsing your local bookstore and had the sudden and intense urge to go poop? Well, apparently lots of folks had, so much so they named the phenomenon. This week we look at it, discuss the poor lady it's named after, and suggest that perhaps this phenomenon extends past bookstores in another "Hunter's Anecdotes to Keep You Afloats." Thanks for listening! -- Connect with us: priv...

We're joined in bathroom by Jude Dominy who has a lot to teach us about alternative uses for bar soap, how to play the long game when someone doesn't clean their hair out of the shower, and what it's like to have uncontrollable diarrhea on your front lawn. -- Connect: privycast@gmail.com www.privycast.wordpress.com www.instagram.com/privycast www.twitter.com/privycast www.facebook.com/privycast pr...

This week, we are talking about all the things we can learn from our poo. From medical analysis to personal habits, there's a lot going on. People have long kept track of their bathrooming, and I report on my findings after 1 year of logging every BM I had in a special edition of Craptastic Apps. Also, Covid has caused a new type of surveillance which we observe in Poo in the News. -- Connect: pri...

Fecal matter is not what most would think of when they think of medical treatment, unless you were in Ancient Egypt. From burns, to eye problems, to lack of strength; poop was used in a lot of the cures. This week, we explore those cures, and take a look at why they may have had them in the first place. -- Connect: privycast@gmail.com www.privycast.wordpress.com www.instagram.com/privycast www.twi...

Showers are great, but it turns out, they haven't been around that long. At least, not the ones we know and love today. How did an inventor, an immigrant, and concern for public safety bring us the best way to get clean, and one of the most concerning Hunter's Anecdotes to date? All in this episode of Privy! -- Connect: privycast@gmail.com www.privycast.wordpress.com www.instagram.com/privycast ww...

We had the pleasure of chatting with Jason Powell, who shared the ins and outs of bathrooming while on the job farming. He also reveals his feelings on waffle stomping, and introduces Hunter to the idea of having a cold beverage in the shower. Oh and he tells a story of a close call from his not so distant past.

We went to the Happiest Place on earth. We sat on some toilets, looked at a brown sidewalk to remind ourselves of a smellier past, and learned about a part of the Florida government created to make Disney happen. Who knew there was so much bathroom relating things in Mickey's Kingdom? -- PRIVYCAST STORE Connect: www.privy-cast.com Social and Contact Links: linktr.ee/privycast Follow Hunter -- Give...

Nothing could be worse than having to go to the bathroom at 30,000 feet, except if that toilet was going to slosh when you hit turbulence. This week, we look at the history of humans putting toilets on planes, talk about how to use them, and go on location to bust an old myth about flushing an airplane toilet. -- Connect: www.privy-cast.com Social and Contact Links: linktr.ee/privycast Follow Hunt...

Catalonia has some Christmas traditions that focus heavily on pooping. What is it about this culture that includes a pooping log and a pooping figurine in their celebration of the season? And, what could these traditions mean for us today? Also, there is a surprise visit from the big man himself. It's a Christmas miracle, just don't beat your Tio too hard. -- Connect: www.privy-cast.com Social and...

Janitors and Custodians were once one of the most trusted positions held, and in many ways, they still are.
