About this listen

Steve and Shivani used to talk about mundane, everyday things like cats, the weather, or quantum mechanics. But now, they've turned their attention to far more interesting and cultured affairs: Publicly accessible restrooms. They used to visit a different toilet every week and discuss their experiences, but that got boring, so now they're just talking about whatever weird and wonderful toilet stuff they can come up with.Copyright 2025 Social Sciences Travel Writing & Commentary

    For their final episode (for now?), Steve talks about how poop can come in all the colours of the rainbow, and Shivani gives us a brief history of sexism in public toilets. The whole thing ends with birds, and it's just a great time all around.
