After years of listener requests, Dr. Kaveh Hoda finally tackles the topic everyone wants to hear about: poop. Joined by comedian Turner Sparks, this episode dives into the science of bowel movements, why fiber is the unsung hero of digestive health, and whether the Squatty Potty lives up to the hype.

From the physiology of pooping (featuring the star of the show: the puborectalis muscle) to squatting toilets in China, fiber maxing trends, and why Americans desperately need more vegetables in their diets—this conversation covers it all. Plus: Turner shares bathroom horror stories from his 12 years living in China, and Kaveh explains why he's trying to put himself out of business by getting you to eat more fiber.
