Someone’s In Here explores our cultural relationship to the bathroom; a topic that everyone can relate to but one that is almost never treated with the dignity that it deserves. The podcast follows host Ben Castleman on a journey as he talks to family, friends, scientists, doctors, CEOs, and even pornstars to figure out why talking about the bathroom, especially talking about poop, is so taboo and if it should be. While these conversations are almost always funny, they also examine the lessons and stories that we’re missing out on by not taking sh*t seriously. We hope you’ll come along for the ride.

Meet Ben Castleman and his family. His dad has given them all a nickname and there are mixed feelings about it. Plus, a story about drugs and friendship, a pitch for poop positivity, the poop family origin story and an episode that may or may not be as interesting to as big of an audience as some true crime thing.

Sometimes our bodies surprise us; on rare occasions they do things that we didn’t even think were possible. In Episode 3, we dive into the True (...Poo?) Crime genre and discuss a night when my friend Max's body did something truly mysterious. As a poop journalist and a witness of the shocking events in question, I led a thorough investigation to see if we could solve a decade old mystery.

When we think about dealing with poop, we're usually thinking about our own. Except, if you are the parent of a young child, dealing with someone else's poop every single day. These parents must have some stories to tell us non-parents and today we're all ears. Plus, a special guest who very recently wore diapers herself.

About Someone's in Here
Hi! My name is Ben Castleman and I talk and think about the bathroom a lot. My dad had his colon removed before I was born, so I've always been comfortable talking about the bathroom and as I've developed some intestinal issues of my own (IBS-D) I couldn't help but wonder why talking about the bathroom, especially poop, was taboo. I'm going on a journey to figure out why this is a taboo topic and if it should be. So if you want to laugh, hear some good stories, and have your own poop positivity moment, join me. Listen and subscribe today!
