Why Do Men Always Pee When They Poop, But Women Rarely Do?

Why Is Eating Ass A Thing?

Ever wondered why eating ass is… a thing? In this episode, Teresa dives headfirst (unfortunately) into the surprisingly long and weird history of analingus—from ancient Greek power plays and Roman insults to the Kama Sutra and Japanese erotic art. Along the way, she breaks down how something once tied to dominance and humiliation became a modern-day taboo pleasure—and why people are so into it today. It’s part history lesson, part science, and part “I cannot believe I’m researching this.” So whether you’re curious, confused, or deeply questioning humanity… buckle up.

How Common Are Consecutive Friday The 13ths?

What are the odds of getting back-to-back Friday the 13ths? This year gave us a rare calendar quirk with consecutive Friday the 13ths in February and March—but how unusual is that really? In this episode, Teresa breaks down the math behind the Gregorian calendar, explains the strange patterns that control when Friday the 13th appears, and uncovers why some years get one, two… or even three of them. Plus, where did all the superstition come from? From Norse mythology to the Knights Templar, we dig into the origins of why Friday the 13th still gives people the chills. By the end, you’ll never look at your calendar the same way again. Thanks to Jodie Bananas [https://x.com/poboypod] for the episode idea.

How Can A Trumpet Only Have Three Keys, Yet Play All The Notes?

A trumpet only has three valves—so how does it manage to play so many different notes? It seems like it shouldn’t be possible, and yet somehow, it works. In this episode, Teresa breaks down the science behind one of music’s most confusing instruments. From buzzing your lips to the way air moves through a long, coiled brass tube, it turns out there’s a lot more going on than just pressing a few valves. We’ll get into how changing the length of the air path affects pitch, what the harmonic series actually is (in normal human terms), and why trumpet players are doing a lot more with their mouths than you might think. If you’ve ever looked at a trumpet and thought, “That doesn’t seem like enough parts to do all that,” you’re not alone—and you’re about to get your answer. Thanks to Pete Holmes for the episode idea.

Why Do People Hate Watch Or Listen To Things?

Ever find yourself watching something you know you hate… and still not turning it off? This week, Teresa dives into the weirdly satisfying world of hate-watching and hate-listening. From roasting terrible music to rage-consuming political content, why do we willingly subject ourselves to stuff that annoys us? It turns out there’s more going on than just “it’s fun to complain.” From schadenfreude and social validation to algorithms that love your anger, this episode breaks down the psychology behind why we keep coming back for more — even when it makes us miserable.
