  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Why Is That Podcast we explore the origins of the popular slapstick technique known as the banana peel slip and fall. In order to do so we track the spread of the banana into a worldwide dietary staple, the development of urban sanitation and the early stage and film actors who perfected the technique.
