Han en Pieter en Daniëlle zouden willen weten hoe het gaat met poepen en plassen als je in de ruimte gaat. Of het dan niet omhoog vliegt, hoe je het afveegt, of de druppels niet overal zitten en hoe je dan die ruimtes schoonmaakt. De output, en dus de podcast, mag in het Nederlands met een Nederlands accent (geen Vlaams). Een beetje humor toevoegen zouden we leuk vinden. Misschien ons een beetje shockeren..
