概要

 There is no greater truth than everybody poops.This week, Matt and Akshay celebrate the people who make it possible for the rest of society to politely pretend that isn’t true. From unclogging disasters to keeping clean water flowing, plumbers do the dirty work that keeps modern life running smoothly. That’s right, this episode is all about the unsung heroes we honor on Hug a Plumber Day.Along the way, Matt and Akshay dive into the surprisingly fascinating history of plumbing, the massive impact plumbers have on public health and modern civilization, and some of the most famous plumbers (real and fictional) to ever pick up a wrench. If you are lucky, they may also share a few personal plumbing mishaps that may or may not have required professional intervention.The episode wraps up with a party game you might be tempted to bring to your next dinner gathering. Just don’t blame us if your friends never invite you back.Sources / ReferencesHoliday BackgroundNational Day Calendar – Hug a Plumber Dayhttps://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/national-day/national-hug-a-plumber-day-april-25World Plumbing Council – World Plumbing Dayhttps://www.worldplumbing.org/worldplumbingday/History of PlumbingPlumbing Manufacturers International – Plumbing Timelinehttps://www.safeplumbing.org/about-pmi/timeline This Old House – History of Modern Plumbinghttps://www.thisoldhouse.com/plumbing/99977/history-of-modern-plumbingFamous Plumbers & Cultural ReferencesBenjamin Franklin Plumbing – Famous Plumbers in Historyhttps://www.benjaminfranklinplumbing.com/dallas/blog/2017/february/the-most-famous-plumbers-in-historyAction Jackson Plumbing – Famous Plumbers You May Not Knowhttps://www.actionjacksonplumbing.com/blog/plumbing-company/10-famous-plumbers-you-may-not-know-aboutMandurah Plumbing & Gas – Famous Plumbers Around the Worldhttps://mandurahplumbingandgas.com.au/exploring-the-wonderful-world-of-famous-plumbersThe Gentlemen Plumbers Calgary – A Short History of Mariohttps://www.thegentlemenplumberscalgary.com/calgary-help-a-short-history-of-marioWTOP – Why Super Mario Became a Plumberhttps://wtop.com/entertainment/2020/09/surprising-reason-nintendo-made-super-mario-a-plumber-35-years-ago/Fun Facts & Plumbing TriviaAngi – Common Plumbing Problemshttps://www.angi.com/articles/plumbing-problems.htmCall NuBlue – Plumbing Facts Plumbers Want Homeowners to Knowhttps://callnublue.com/blog/15-plumbing-facts-plumber-wants-homeowners-to-know/Big B Home Pro – Random Plumbing Factshttps://www.bigbhomepro.com/blog/10-fun-random-plumbing-related-facts/Call Dixie – Wild Facts About Plumbinghttps://calldixie.com/blog/5-wild-facts-about-the-world-of-plumbing/Caccia Plumbing – Fun Plumbing Factshttps://cacciaplumbing.com/blog/fun-facts-about-plumbing/Song Credits / MusicDancin in the Tub — Family KushEminence Landscapes (Pizzicato Version) — Ian PostFamous (Instrumental Version) — BalloonPlanetUntil Dawn - Jeremy ChontowThere are 52 weeks in a year.
