Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Everybody made a pact that we were going to side
saddle the turlet, and a lot of you did. Yeah,
look here is here's Ian. Did you see Ian?

Speaker 2 (00:18):
The pictures. While some of them were disturbing, some of
them made me laught.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Now I will say this cut off on this page. Ian,
you could discover it. He's cupping himself. Absolutely great photo
courtesy Ian may have the best photo. Ian's was great.

(00:42):
This is William.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
What did I look at? Oh that's his leg.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, that's the leg, little belly side tattoo. But you
could see facing sideway. Did someone take that photo for him? Yes?
So well you could ask like, I don't know, like
I could have asked Jack to come in. Ian's is
the best. Ian's is great? And then wait we're oh
I like this one too. From John that's just them

(01:11):
facing forward. The window is on the side, so they're
facing straight out the window.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Love it, love it funny? Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:22):
From Kathy, Uh no, go on that sideways thing. I
did sit in the chair. Okay, don't call it a chair.
I did sit in the chair to the side that
was as close as I could get.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
If you saw my ass you would understand. Well that
made me sad. Seriously, confidence is sexy. And then I
wanted everyone to think they could do this.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
And then here's a plumber in Bethesda who just sent
me a Pittsburgh poet potty.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
He said, there everywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Yeah, Chevy Chase, it sounded like you had issue.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
You don't realize how close your toilet is to the wall.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yes, that is a problem.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Or a cabinet or a sink until you're trying to
sit sidest Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
No, that's a problem because I can't go one way.
I had to go the other. And it was almost
like you had.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
To like like almost like back bend yourself in there
to get your leg, like your the leg that's closest
to the wall in the back wall.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
That took some work to wedge in there.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yeah. No, it was not comfortable whatsoever.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
Now.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
And then you felt like your knees were going to
push through drywall. Yes, yes, also, and then you couldn't
really push back even though you're trying.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Then their ass would fall off the back of the seat.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
And then pushing down you're like, I hope I don't
rupture these shoving them into the bowl.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
That's funny how that oblong shape works for you so well,
huh one way and horribly sides that.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
It's you don't realize how narrow it is, and that's
not like a hood well when you're so big, no, no,
look at.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
His ass the like Kathy.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
But yes, it was very difficult, and.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I've never even when we because we had to put
in a new like toilet paper holder. I didn't think
at the time, this is so close to the toilet.
It's only when you turn your body that you find
yourself constricted. So I said that I give my best shot,
because I honestly feel like I corded it, like I
don't think.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Oh, so you didn't get all the way to the side,
and that.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Was both bathrooms I could not get from my my femur.
I guess it would be my fever. I have long femurs,
so I guess I could have. I didn't do this,
but I could have pulled my legs up and and
sat my heels on the bowl so that your femurs
are pointing upwards.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
So just so I'm not so just crouched on the
bowl sideways.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Like a crouching tiger. I didn't try that, though, word, yeah,
well then it would have been the balance would have been.
You're not sitting on a bowl with your feet up
on the front part of the bowl, Like I said,
I didn't try that. No, there's no way you're going
to try this.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
No, No, it's it's too it's too Also, the way
you're leaning back, if you go in the morning, you're
shooting way out. You're not pushing that down.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Not try this the first time. That's the bathroom either
week end day.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
And I should guess, did you did you only attempt one? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Sorry? Did I say we had to do too?

Speaker 1 (04:41):
No?

Speaker 2 (04:41):
I didn't even attempt to. I was afraid too much.
The say again, it was just too much.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
I was.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
I was afraid because I didn't know because again of
how narrow the bowl is and how close you are
up to the walls. I definitely had more on the
on the on the on the seat, like more more
body on the seat than I normally would, right, And
I was like, I don't think, I'm I don't think.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
I don't think all of it is hanging over like this.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
I got very nervous.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
That would have been great if you stood up and
it was on the ground. I didn't get it. I
get it.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
I get it now.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
Diane.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
You tried, did you really?

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah? I wish I'm shocked.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
I can't picture Diane doing it.

Speaker 5 (05:27):
Wait, I appreciate that, but again, it was it was
like the side it's sort of in a little recess,
you know, and so it's like one one knee was
flush up against the drywall, right and the other one
was not.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
But it was awkward. Yeah, I didn't like it.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Oh so did you keep one leg straight like right angle?

Speaker 2 (05:47):
No?

Speaker 5 (05:48):
Oh wow, No, I mean I was still like in
the seated position, but just one wasn't really hitting that wall.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
No, no, but but Tyler's right, So if I'm facing sideways,
you got you got this peg here.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Yeah, but this.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
One's kind I could stretch. I could stretch it. I
really didn't. I kept it beto. Yeah, I mean I
am a lady.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
I don't like that.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
That would be awkward.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
It was not awkward, did you go? Yeah? Can I
ask you this?

Speaker 1 (06:17):
I mean this honestly, the because that's narrow, right, and
I understand the body like you don't have to worry
about going that just straight down? Were you able to.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
What wipe?

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Yeah, that wasn't awkward.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Like I don't feel like the whole thing was I understood,
but you were also you were also like.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
This, so maybe that gives you a little extra room.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
That was the other thing.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
I was afraid if I went too there was no
way to get back there to wipe.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Well at that point, maybe you could have stood up.
Plenty of people stand to what.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Never Never, I would never. I won't even stand in
a public clog toilet.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Well, you said sometimes in a public toilet because of
residue on the seat, you almost have to find a
side saddle esque position.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Yeah, a little bit, a little bit. You have more
room though because of the partition. Absolutely, I have to
try that. Kristen, did you try?

Speaker 2 (07:21):
How'd you do?

Speaker 4 (07:22):
Fine?

Speaker 3 (07:23):
It was just like normal, My favorite new way
