Summary

Parent note: I use the words "farting" and "pooting" once each just to describe different words for flatulation. I keep this discussion very clinical and avoid crudity. The actual sound of flatulance is not used. In this episode, we learn how gas gets into the digestive system, why gas sometimes makes a sound when it leaves the body, and why letting it out can make your belly feel better!
