Butt Talks by With Jazmin and Erik

Episode notes

Jazmin and Erik explore the biological, historical, cultural and societal impacts of why so many people are weird to talk about butts.

With their always engaging back and forth conversation, the show’s co-hosts cover a wide range of topics including human waste as disgust (the sex-disgust paradox), anthropology, the behavioral immune system, as well as the Roman Empire and the Victorian era to get to the bottom of the taboo and shame around discussing the ass. You’ll also find some fascinating stats ranging from bidet use in Italy all the way to how Japanese women hid their farts during the Edo period!
