IS POO EVER FUNNY?! - Featuring Paul Gannon and Sooz Kempner!

#Poo #Toys #ToiletHumor
Yes, it's an episode about poo. But believe it or not, we don't go the obvious route for once. Instead, Gannon and Biffo take a look at the unexpected history of toilet humour, modern society's attitude towards it, poo in different cultures, and why there are so many poo-based toys available now...
And we play with Gotta Go Flamingo, whatever that is.
Also, there are, inevitably, two EXCELLENT poo-based songs, so thank you to Sooz Kempner and Jerden-Cooke for sinking to our level.

Didn't think I'd make it past the song...but so glad I did.. watching a toy defecate was strangely satisfying.

[@liamwynne566]

Two grown men sitting on a leather couch, getting increasingly more annoyed and stressed out while having their words repeated back to them in a high pitched tone by a toy flamingo that sits in front of them, on a small, see through toilet waiting to be fed "food" that it will promptly excrete, and then have fed back to it

[@Pomshka]

There's that scene in American Pie, where they feed the guy the laxatives. 🙈

[@PixelsLtd]

The laxative scene in American Pie 1 is funny. The "guy accidentally eats some shit while others watch" scene in American Pie 3 was too far, for me at least. Perhaps I'm squeamish, or perhaps there's a line that crosses over from amusing to gross?

[@mitchyk]

My favourite poo things in films are when there's a film on and i go for a poo! i also have IBS as well as some other stuff, so pooing for me is largely an explosive series of shits interspersed with bits of life. So yeah, POO! When we were 10-12 somewhere around that age me and my mate used to do a "radio" show that we recorded onto tape. It was basically the Diarrhoea song from start to finish. We also used to draw willies on the TV with dry wipe markers to much hilarity! (Warning don't do this to modern LCD's. It ruins them. Or so i've heard...) Anyway that is why i love your show, it's childish, prurient and immensely funny!

[@Psy1402]

it's particularly weird and disappointing to me because that's a really cute flamingo sculpt and it'd make an excellent soft toy but they filled it with electronics that make it shit

[@mastermarkus5307]

Agreed. I'm also not 100% sure of the appeal of a toy that poops besides talking about how weird it is.

[@ubertoaster99]

That toy is hilarious! Nice to see an episode really playing to Gannon's strengths!

[@davidhale9730]

Anyone remember the late eighties/early nineties CITV kid's show, "Round the Bend"? I believe it was made by the same team who did Spitting Image. I remember that it had some hilarious poo parodies of other famous kid's cartoons of the time, such as "Wee-Man & The Masters of the Looniverse ", "Botman" and "Thunderpants", featuring the villain "Bum-Ra". God, I loved that show. At the time, it seemed like the kid's version of something like Eurotrash! 😂

[@squarebearderry]

[@davidhale9730]

@@squarebearderry Despite it being on kid's TV, I was always on tenderhooks that my parents might tune into what I was actually watching, and make me change the channel! 😂 And yeah, it would most definitely never air on TV, today.

At around 13:40, Gannon's referring to "Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom" I do like watching films that push the envelope, but I've looked this one up and I'm staying well away. Also, Bad Grandpa (the Jackass one) had a great poo scene in the diner!

[@brianartillery]

I saw Salo at my local arthouse cinema. I sat with some friends, and we had a sweepstake on which other patrons would leave before it finished. There were some braying ninnies from the art school there, too. They left after about 40 minutes, one of them actually being sick on the way out. It's certainly a beautifully made movie, but one complete viewing is enough. I didn't find it as disturbing as I thought it might be. Certainly not as frightening as that Japanese porn a friend of mine had once, I can tell you.

[@kittysplode]

it's just really boring

[@Jamal_Tyrone]

That Diarrhoea video didn't half remind me of State Of The Art and 9 Finger demos on the Amiga 500.

At 6.15, the utter contempt, the pure hatred that woman has on her face while looking at what I assume is her husband, like ' I can't believe I only found out about his obsession with opening a shit museum after I married him and they're interviewing him for t.v. I hate you'

I'm a bit surprised they didn't make Sherbert's poo edible. The only poo toy I remember was a coin bank shaped like a toilet, that would squirt water when you lifted the seat. A few of the Garbage Pail Kids, I suppose, were poo themed. Now there's poo goo, poo candy, & I've even seen poo _lip gloss._ Edit: someone commented that poo toys have always been a thing, but I don't think Baby-Wets-Herself really counts.

[@jonmahashintina]

never understood 90s kids entertainments obsession with 'icky'. there was a cartoon with two kids and a baby and the baby was always filling its diaper. and snot bubbles. getting slimed intentionally. why. i think theres potential for humor. dumb and dumber has my fav joke. but cartoons and toys miss the ball and just equate disgusting with funny, forgetting about the overall scenario. very lazy.

[@gullyfoyle2615]

I have a friend who back in the day was having a tough time in 6th form at school. So to get his own back on everyone, he took the kettle from the common room, shat in it, turned it on, and left. I can't imagine what boiled shit smells like. Anyway he was expelled.

[@theartistformerlyknownassh9534]

For some odd reason i've always been a bit bothered by shit/fart comedy but not bothered by it at all in real life, if i'd pulled a biffo and run away everytime i farted near my partner i'd be halfway to bhutan at this point. On the other hand, vomit is both hilarious and revolutionary, a poop is the result of consumption, while vomit is a rejection. Anyway the best puke scene would be from absurd japanese body horror film 964 pinocchio.

I've been to a number of open mic comedy nights (too many) and the women are by far always the most graphic about bodily functions. Going as far as possible. I think men are more childish in their toilet humour while women frame it more grotesquely. These are generalisations, therefore true.

[@smacksalad]

I did a photo project of people sat on the toilet. Pootraits, obviously.

[@The-Underbaker]

Many years ago at school I squeezed out a quiet bottom burp but the stench was utterly horrendous. It was so bad that the teacher opened every window and essentially evacuated us all out of the class into the corridor for about twenty minutes. I blamed it on my mate who had been sat next to me.

[@superscatboy]

The other day I did a shit that required me to clean the entire bathroom afterwards. I'm simultaneously deeply ashamed and incredibly proud.

Well that was a satisfying poo. Normal consistency, with (as usual) a leading smaller poo, a bit like a scout, followed by the main poo. It was quite a long one and fearing splash-back I threw in two pieces of folder toilet paper to act as a landing pad prior to touch down. Post clean-up was minimal due to the poo being quite greasy, a consequence of the ham and cheese baguette with salad and mayo pub lunch I had this afternoon.
