This week on Hysteria 51, we're going all-in on the rear end with an episode so bizarre, you’ll need both nostrils and an open mind.
First, we head to Japan where an aquarium has launched an “educational” exhibit that lets visitors smell animal butts. You read that right. Curious about how a sea lion smells from behind? Now you can find out—for science.
Then, we dive into groundbreaking research that suggests humans might one day breathe through their butts to survive critical health emergencies. It’s called “intrapulmonary oxygenation via the rectum,” but we call it Plan B for lungs.
From sniffable seal ends to potentially life-saving booty breaths, this episode stinks of science—and we’re absolutely here for it.
Tune in now before the future smells even weirder.
