Remember: Don’t eat poop! 💩

In this episode of Don’t Eat Poop!, our hosts Matt and Francine are righting a wrong. Inside jokes are a lot funnier when you're the person who understands them, right? So it’s high time they let you in on one of the Don’t Eat Poop! Podcast’s longest-running jokes: the salmon in the dishwasher.

Due to some technical issues, the original episode was never aired. Not knowing this didn’t get fixed, Matt and Francine kept mentioning it thinking their audience was in on the joke. Well, don’t worry! The fish will finally get cooked in the dishwasher today.

Tune in to finally hear the infamous episode about the dishwasher salmon. 

Matt and Francine also talk about a woman charged with murder in Australia for allegedly poisoning her ex-husband's family with toxic mushrooms in fancy Beef Wellington. Matt also gives a big shout-out to his wife, who truly deserves it.
