Mother Knows Death.

Starring Nicole and Jenny and Maria QK.

Hi, everyone.

Welcome to Mother knows death on today's episode.

We're going to talk about how contestants on the reality show Survivor had to poop.

VR or virtual reality headsets are being given to prisoners, a woman who had astronomical amounts of lead in her body, a woman who was born without the ability to blink, and a woman who is

And they just introduce a whole other set of problems.

But whatever.

So like she's on Survivor.

She's getting asked by a fan.

The question I'm sure everybody wants to know, which is how do you go to the bathroom on the show?

Because they're supposed to be on a quote unquote like desert island type of situation and have to survive.

So she explains there's basically one of two options.

The first, which is the easiest is you can go in the ocean and just poop right there.

Or the second is they have something called the coconut grove where the teams will create this designated area called the coconut grove and you basically dig a hole in the ground poop and bury your poop.

But that comes with concerns of digging up other people's poop.

So none of this seems appealing at all.
