Get Flushed: Recent Episodes
Get Flushed Limited
Sanitation (the management of human faeces, urine and menstrual blood) might not sound like an appetising topic for a podcast, but the truth is, everybody has to go to the bathroom.
The lack of proper sanitation is recognised as one of the biggest threats facing the world today. The problem is not simply confined to emerging nations or remote communities. It affects us all.
Originally created to help portable restroom operators improve their performance, Get Flushed has become the place for serious conversations about sanitation. In each episode, host Pete explores the mechanics of the global sanitation industry and pushes to improve restroom standards for all.
Get Flushed shares the knowledge, skills and experiences of toilet users, manufacturers, restroom operators, engineers, researchers and sanitation champions to improve the performance of sanitation-based businesses worldwide.
This episode features a detailed discussion with Joe Shelton, an expert in portable sanitation with decades of experience. Joe recounts his early start in the industry, working for his family's business, and how that foundation led him to launch his own company and later a successful brokerage.
The episode focuses on the role of brokers in the restroom industry, dispelling myths and highlighting their potential to enhance business operations. Joe addresses common concerns about brokers, such as reliability and payment issues, and offers practical advice on how to leverage a broker's services to expand reach and improve efficiency. He stresses the importance of fair pricing and quality service, noting that while some operators may view brokers skeptically, they can be instrumental in reducing the burden of sales and marketing, especially for smaller businesses. Joe's candid discussion provides a comprehensive look at how brokers can be allies in the competitive sanitation market.
Takeaways:
- Joe Shelton shares his extensive experience in the portable sanitation industry, highlighting his journey from working in his family's business to starting his own.
- The podcast explores the role of brokers in the portable restroom industry, acting as intermediaries between customers and operators.
- Joe emphasizes the importance of building strong relationships with brokers to gain more business and leverage their sales capabilities.

Submissions are now open for the New Zealand Podcast Awards 2024. Get Flushed has been entered in the Best Business Podcast and Best Independent Podcast categories. Long term listeners may remember that the show won a Bronze Medal at the inaugural awards in November 2021.
This episode is our showreel submission for the 2024 Awards. It contains clips from five episodes released between 1 August 2023 and 31 August 2024.:
- Episode 120 released 9 January 2024
- Episode 118 released 7 January 2024
- Episode 110 released 24 December 2023
- Episode 91 released 5 December 2023
- Episode 119 released 28 January 2024
Four of the clips were chosen because they capture the essence of the show. Pete uses his research as well as his own industry-based knowledge, skills and experience to answer questions from listeners, unravel business issues and address operational and strategic challenges specific to the portable restroom industry. Some of these questions were posed by listeners who said they were too embarrassed by their own lack of knowledge to ask these questions publicly elsewhere.
The fifth reel comes from a tribute episode released following the untimely death of David Andres in January 2024. Dave was a regular guest, contributor and sponsor of the show. This clip refers to an episode originally published in September 2021 in which Dave recounted his experience as the first portable restroom operator to arrive at Ground Zero following the attacks on the World Trade Centre. That episode remains the shows most popular episode.

Death Without debt is a new podcast from the Get Flushed studio.
In 2023, the average cost of a basic funeral or cremation in New Zealand was between $8,000 and $15,000. That same year, 64% of funerals and cremations in New Zealand were not pre-planned.
Those high costs and lack of planning often leaves bereaved families with a huge bill that compounds the grief of those left behind.
Death Without Debt is a social movement dedicated to: exposing the reasons why funeral costs are so high; and changing the law to make funerals and cremations more affordable for all New Zealanders.
In this episode, host Pete is joined by Fergus Wheeler from the Death Without Debt campaign. Fergus describes the New Zealand funeral industry, shares how organising funerals for his parents led him to believe that something is seriously wrong with the funeral system in New Zealand and explains the issues that prevent families managing the funeral or cremation process themselves.
To learn more about the Death Without Debt campaign, please visit www.deathwithoutdebt.org.nz or look for Death Without Debt on FaceBook.

I’m very sorry to tell you all that my good friend, sanitation expert, podcast collaborator, bon viveur and fellow raconteur David Andres passed away suddenly from natural causes at his home in Houston on 7th January. He was 57 years old.
