Episode Summary: In today's intimate episode, we dive deep into the porcelain throne's biggest controversy: The Bidet vs. Toilet Paper. What starts as a simple recommendation for personal hygiene quickly devolves into a historical, scientific, and slightly graphic debate on the "proper" way to clean up. From ancient Roman communal sponges to the physics of the "Cobra Strike" dab, no stone (or stick) is left unturned.

In This Episode, We Cover:

1. The Bidet Revolution: Why water wins every time.
2. The Smear Campaign: Is dry paper just moving the problem around?.
3. Hygiene History: How ancient civilizations—and ChatGPT—handled the business.
4. The Wet Wipe Dilemma: Why they’re great for you but terrible for your pipes.
5. Personal Techniques: An unnecessary deep dive into the "upper," "downer," and the "dab".

We reflect on why this is officially our "most scuffed" episode yet.

We are tired of the news. We are tired of the "Henny Penny" doom and gloom. We just want good dirt.

This week, we discuss why "unbiased" news aggregators might just be echo chambers with extra steps. We also explore how the Printing Press was basically 15th-century Twitter for spreading lies about Marie Antoinette, and why we are all susceptible to AI hoaxes about boys who cry wolf.

In this episode:

1. The YouTube Pivot: Why serious war documentaries now start with ads for Raid Shadow Legends and sports betting.
2. Ground News (Not a Sponsor): We tried to find the truth, but the algorithm just got confused by our search history.
3. The French Revolution: Proof that misinformation is older than the internet (and usually involves a guy in a basement making stuff up).
4. The Compost Cure: Why ignoring the world to focus on the nutrient density of your soil is the only valid response to modern life.
