Have you ever wondered why poo is funny? It’s stinky. It’s perfectly revolting, but if you say the word poo a few times, children – and some adults – start to smile, even laugh. And it can, of course, be surprisingly useful – as a food source, a fertiliser and for marking animal territory. But adult humans don’t tend to like talking about poo so we thought we'd do just that instead. This podcast is written, and read to you, by Camilla Akers-Douglas, with sound editing by Max Watson. It was produced by Henrietta McMicking. Our theme music is by James Burrell To contact us, email camilla@wonderaudio.co.uk or henrietta@wonderaudio.co.uk  Social media  Twitter @wonder_podcastFacebook @wonderpodcastsInstagram @wonderpodcasts
