Welcome to this instalment of Join the Docs, where your esteemed and shameless hosts, Nigel and Jonathan, tackle a topic that's been the butt of jokes since time began: the tuneful symphony of the human body, known as flatulence.

‍

In this gut-busting episode, The Docs delve deep into the bowels of science to unearth the root causes of gas. They uncover everything from the innocuous (like Thursday's bean dinner) to the more ominous rumblings that might signal serious health issues.

‍

Who could forget the famous farting figures like Dr. Methane? Our hosts share side-splitting (and perhaps nose-pinching) anecdotes about knock-out performers…..as in the smell knocking you right out!

‍

But this isn't just a run-of-the-mill toot talk. Oh no! Nigel walks us through the annals of history and culture, where flatulence has broken the ice - and wind - since the dawn of civilization.

‍

Ever wondered why you fart more at 30,000 feet? Jonathan explains the effects of altitude on gas with enough levity to lift you right out of your seat—no helium required.

‍

Did you know that the average person passes gas 14 to 15 times a day? That's right, you're not alone in your anal artistry, and throughout this episode, our hosts  destigmatize breaking wind, offering advice on when to consult a professional about your potty puffs, and smooth the conversation with fun facts that'll have you reeling.

So buckle up, or rather loosen your belt, and prepare for a wild ride through the world of wind-breaking. It's an episode of Join the Docs that you'll surely want to let everyone know about—just maybe not in an enclosed space…
