Episode description

In this revolting episode, our guest Dr Sam Jones asks Julian to never see a man about a horse again, then she weeds out the filth in the animal kingdom, and finally Trace gives us a palate cleanser of starchy, potatoey goodness.

QUESTIONS

Julian: "If all humans never had to poop again — how would it affect the world?" from Sam

Sam Jones: "What is the filthiest absolutely disgusting animal" from Danielle

Trace: "What is the best way to potato" from Mallory
