Guys! Love your show but please don’t change your title music. It’s a part of your brand and to be honest I didn’t really like the one used in this episode. The show itself was excellent as ever! 😀
OK, that’s hilarious timing.. I was laid up just last week with a kidney stone! 0/10 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. x_x The worst part was that I got to the ER at midnight, and didn’t see a doc til 6am. The triage nurse did give me a shot of something pretty sweet to take the edge off, so at least I wasn’t screaming and throwing up anymore. But I still had to walk around the entire 6 hours because it hurt too much to sit. So exhausting. I suspect the gallons of lemonade I drank over the next 2 days dissolved the stone in the bladder, however, because I didn’t notice if/when it finally passed. I just had my followup ultrasound this morning, so we’ll see if it’s still knocking about in there!
A little surprised you guys didn’t mention Urinetown (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinetown) in Pop Culture. It’s literally a play about pee! (OK, it’s technically a satire about corporations and politics, but still..)
Fantastic ep, guys, I really loved that one (and thanks for the shoutout).
A urine story I have was about a mate of mine at uni, who decided to get back into the gym after being slack for years. He went really hard the first time, found he couldn’t walk the next day he was so sore, nor the next day, nor the day after that, and the day after that he discovered his urine had turned a dark brown. Wondering what he’d done he went to the doctor, who said it was dead muscle fibres from his workout being passed out of the body. Top tip, ease yourself into gym workouts.

Hi guys. Great episode. Little nitpick: New Zealand is actually not named after the Danish Island of Sealand, but after the Dutch province of Zeeland.
